The Turkish historical TV drama Dirilis Ertugrul has been all the rage in Pakistan since the state broadcaster began airing a dubbed version in April. This is not the first Turkish drama to have become popular in Pakistan, but what is different about Ertugrul, often described as the Muslim Game of Thrones is that it’s being promoted by Prime Minister Imran Khan, for reasons thought to be both personal and political.

Darmiyan Episode 4- Aliya makes her entry!

3

In this episode, Aliya made her entry into Raheel’s house but before stepping into his house as a nanny to his kids, she had to have a good impression. Aliya can go to any limits to get revenge from Raheel. I do understand that she and her family have gone through a lot and Raheel not only ruined Farishtay’s life but the whole family but the question is ‘Is it justified for her to get revenge?’ In my opinion, it is not justified for her to get revenge because panchon ungliyaan barabar nahin hoti. She herself has seen how one feels when a family gets ruined yet she’s doing what happened to her family to another family. I know that she’s ruining the family of the person who ruined her family but she still shouldn’t do that and wait for Allah to get back to Raheel.

Nida tells Raheel about the famous baba and tells him that she wants to get her palm read by him. Raheel tells her that he doesn’t want to go but Nida still takes him with her. The baba telling her that her happiness is not going to stay long is a reflection of what is going to happen in the future. I myself do not believe in palm reading and the baba was telling her to spend more in Allah’s way yet he doesn’t know that palm reading is a sin. Nida also has a nightmare that night and this again is a reflection of what is going to happen in the future.

d5

Aliya goes sees Hassan(Raheel’s son) in the school and gives him chocolate. Haniya(Raheel’s daughter) sees Aliya giving Hassan chocolate so she calls him. Aliya tells Aafaq(we still don’t know how he is related to Aliya) to kidnap Hassan and Aafaq does so very smartly.He takes Hassan to the play land and to the mall while a worried Raheel and Nida try to find their lost son.

d1

 Aliya takes Hassan home at night and becomes a farishta for Nida and her family. She introduces herself as Alina and tells Nida that she’s alone and has come to Karachi to search for a job. Nida thinks that Aliya would be the perfect caretaker of her kids. The next day Aliya goes to her house for the job and Nida is surprised to see her. She tells Raheel to guess who she is and Raheel says he knows who she is. Aliya gets worried thinking that Raheel has recognized her even after 15 years.

Overall, the episode was interesting and entertaining. Everyone acted really well including the child artists. The promo for the next episode seems interesting because Haniya tells her parents that her(Aliya’s) name is not Alina and she saw her giving chocolate to Hassan in school. Let’s see how Haniya finds out that Alina is not Aliya’s real name and if her parents believe her. Can’t wait for the next episode!

Darmiyan Episode 3- Farishtay’s unfortunate past!

8

This episode was not as fast paced as the last one but it was still good and kept me hooked. The drama just keeps on getting more interesting. Farishtay’s unfortunate past is finally revealed. Raheel did not marry Farishtay because he doesn’t trust her. Just because he saw Farishtay talking to her neighbor, Raheel left her. The neighbor was actually apologizing for his behavior but things didn’t go well. Raheel insulted Farishtay in front of  everyone. He had no right to  do so. If he’s really that conservative, why did he take Farishtay out for lunch? Why didn’t he wait for just 3 more days and take her out after marriage?

D8

I absolutely hated the neighbor’s talk. One says she already had an affair with someone and the other says he saw her with guys a lot of time. Seriously? The landlord getting into the house with a bunch of guys, doing a lot of damage and threatening them to leave the house or else they’ll burn Farishtay alive was as out of fire in frying pan. This is unbelievable! Farishtay hasn’t even done anything and yet the whole family has to suffer for something they never did! This is just sick!

D2

Farishtay had gone to her best friend, Mehwish, with some hope but Mehwish is helpless as well! I felt bad how Mehwish’s husband was forcing her not to meet or help Farishtay.

D5

One thing I still don’t understand is how is Qaiser Naqvi related to Aliya? Aliya calls her khala but is she her real khala or not? Aliya left in Mehran but reached the mental hospital in a Corolla. I think the director needs to be extra careful!

Farishtay’s mother couldn’t tolerate any more and so she passed away. They had already suffered a lot. I actually thought that Farishtay died but Farishtay is still alive. I felt so sad for Farishtay. She hasn’t even done anything and yet she has to suffer for something she hasn’t done. Her mental state is not normal anymore. She doesn’t even recognize Aliya and she is still in her past. She still thinks she’s getting married to Raheel!

D4

Aliya’s hatred for Raheel just keeps on increasing and she desperately wants a revenge! Raheel is leading a happy life with Nida and two adorable kids. Raheel doesn’t know but Aliya has been stalking him.

D3

Nida giving ad for the helper in the newspaper was exactly what Aliya needed to get into their lives and take revenge. Aliya has seen that ad in the newspaper and she has planned everything. Who was that guy who asked Aliya in the end what she wants to do now and she said barbaad. He took Aliya to Farishtay as well.

I think that the writer hasn’t been good in introducing some other characters. Overall, it was a good episode! All the actors acted really well! The direction was good as well. I can’t wait for the next episode! Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best!

Darmiyan Episode 2- Unexpected Twists!

4

One thing that I loved about this episode was that it was fast paced. The first episode was not that fast paced but this one was really fast paced which keeps my interest in the serial.

“Larkiyaan bhi kitni ajeeb hoti hain. Bare bare khwabon ko apni muthi main band karna chahti hain lekin jab muthi kholti hain to khalipan ke siwa kuch nahi hota.”

Syra Yousuf’s dialogue delivery has gotten so well! I loved this dialogue!

I was surprised to see Raheel’s mother agree so fast to meet Farishtay. I mean she’s telling Raheel that Farishtay is inferior to him and she has already asked for Nida’s hand but she agrees to meet Farishtay so fast.

Darmiyan (1)

“Qismat ki lakiron ki siyahi ko kaun mita sakta hai?”

I totally agree with this dialogue!

I loved Aliya’s and Farishtay’s cute little argument over what dress Farishtay should wear when Raheel and his mother come for Farishtay’s proposal.

Darmiyan 5

Farishtay’s refusal to marry Raheel was very surprising for me. She didn’t even give any explanations to Raheel and his mother and just left. It looked very disrespectful!

Darmiyan 2

Raheel takes a step to ask Farishtay the reason for her refusal and she tells him that she has a lot of responsibilities and she doesn’t want to share them with anyone. Raheel meeting with an accident was another unexpected twist.

Farishtay realizes her mistake and decides to call Raheel. One thing I didn’t understand was how did she have Raheel’s number? She finds out about Raheel’s accident and leaves. She didn’t even tell her mom that she’s leaving. Aliya was trying to ask her where she’s going and why she looks worried but she just kept on running. Another thing that surprised me was that she wasn’t wearing a dupatta.

She breaks down on seeing Raheel (even though he has no injuries) and hugs him which was pretty unexpected.

“Yeh aarzi sahara nahi chahye!”

“Main rah kabhi nahi badloon gi, Raheel.”

Darmiyan 4

When Raheel drops Farishtay home there is this guy standing next to Farishtay’s door. Raheel asks Farishtay who he is and Farishtay says she doesn’t know. He looks very creepy!

I think that the marriage is taking place to early!

Darmiyan 3

It was funny how Raheel came on the mayoon, his face hidden in a dupatta and sat next to Farishtay. When he unveiled his face, everyone got surprised. His mother tells him to go and he goes after making Farishtay eat sweet with his hand. That was sweet! :) This is my favorite scene from the episode.

It was cute how Raheel wished Farishtay birthday. They make a cute couple.

I can’t believe that Raheel suspected Farishtay when that creepy guy threw that letter. I was definitely surprised to see Raheel’s mother taking Farishtay’s side and telling him that maybe he’s wrong. I thought she would be like ‘I told you before that you should marry Nida’ or something like that. She tells Raheel that Farishtay can’t do that but Raheel wouldn’t marry Farishtay until he knows the “truth”. The episode ends with Farishay being heartbroken and Raheel comes to talk to her.

Overall, it was a good episode, full of surprises and twists. The acting, direction, background music and everything was good. I loved the episode!

Will Raheel find out the truth? Will he marry Farishtay? Can’t wait to see what happens next! Share your views guys!

Darmiyan Episode 1- A Good Start!

5

The reason that I had been waiting for this play was because of its cast. This is Syra Yousuf’s first play after her marriage and we all know that Adnan Siddiqui and Sania Saeed are phenomenal actors. Another thing that attracted me towards this play was that the sisters really love each other and not rival each other like all the other sisters in Pakistani dramas these days. This came as a breath of fresh air for me! In today’s episode we got introduced to Aliya(Syra Yousuf), Farishtay(Javeria Abbasi) and Raheel(Adnan Siddiqui). Unfortunately we didn’t get to see Nida(Sania Saeed) but the episode was still good.

The episode starts with Aliya going to the graveyard to visit her late sister, Faishtay’s tomb. Aliya is really lonely and she really misses Farishtay. She lives alone in the house where she has spent her childhood with Farishtay. Later on, Aliya goes into a flashback and we find out that Aliya and Farishtay are half sisters. Their father and Aliya’s mother are no more in this world. Aliya doesn’t know that Farishtay and her are half sisters. Farishtay has always treated Aliya like her real sister. Farishtay is a beautician. Her mother wants her to get married but she wouldn’t until Aliya becomes independent. Her mother thinks Aliya is jinxed and blames Aliya for her parents’ death and Farishtay’s refusal for marriage. It’s so sad how people call each other jinxed. Farishtay and her mom are unaware that Aliya is listening to their conversation. Aliya tries to commit suicide by eating sleeping pills but Farishtay sees her and stops her. The mother becomes embarrassed and tells Aliya how much she loves her. This scene was heartbreaking! Aliya makes Farishtay promise that she would get married and Aliya too promises that she wouldn’t do anything like that again.

Darmiyan_7 (1)

The dialogue that stood out to me the most from this episode was:

“Kabhi Kabhi koi pal  insaan ki poori Zindagi badal deta hai, Khala. Aur woh raat bhi kuch aisi hi thi.”

The dialogue is beautifully said by Syra Yousuf and it just makes me wonder about what would have happened that night. She says this dialogue when she goes into a flashback of Farishtay going to her friend’s engagement. That was the night she met Raheel. Raheel falls in love with Farishtay at the first sight. Farishtay’s freind gives her her gold earrings to wear for the night and Farishtay loses one of the earrings by mistake. She starts crying and Raheel sees her. Raheel finds the earring and tells her, “In ankhon mein ansoon ache nahi lagte.” This scene was absolutely lovely. Raheel and Farishtay look really cute. Raheel then drops Farishtay home because it was really late.

Darmiyan_1

Raheel’s mother is trying to convince him to get married to Nida but he doesn’t want to marry her. The episode ends with Raheel telling his friend that he wants to marry Farishtay not Nida. It seems like Farishtay too likes Raheel because she was thinking about him when she was in her saloon.

Overall, it was a good start. Syra Yousuf just keeps on getting better! Adnan Siddiqui and Javeria Abbasi did justice to their roles. The direction was really good too! I can’t wait to see what happens next! Will Raheel tell Farishtay about his feelings? How will Farishtay react? Will Raheel’s mom force him to marry Nida? Stay tuned to see what happens! Can’t wait for the next episode.

The success on YouTube brings big money and especially at a younger age, not many are able to handle it. There are several stories of young Pakistani YouTubers going out of hand at the peak of their success and they fell from grace due to the controversies that should have been avoided at all costs. Here are some famous Pakistani YouTubers who took some stupid decisions while they were very popular with the masses:

Rajab Butt

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

Rajab Butt tried to make a career in acting and he also performed in a drama alongside Babar Ali and Kinza Hashmi. Things did not work out for him, and he later on joined YouTube as a family Vlogger. The genre became a gold mine for this young Pakistani YouTuber, who has been amassing millions of views and has become the top family Vlogger of the country.

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

This is where his journey with controversies also started. He has a feud with so many fellow content creators, with things turning ugly and fist fights happening in the open. He has been arrested for receiving a lion cub and his on-screen behaviour with his mother and wife is also judged by many people. Rajab Butt recently launched a perfume with the name of 295 and his lack of research has made him flee the country. Many religious parties are after him, and he unknowingly got himself into a case which never even gets proper defense in Pakistan. Tan Man Neelo Neel, the recent drama, clearly showed the repercussions of being caught in such a case and is an example of how one should be responsible. Rajab Butt who was the top YouTuber a week ago has made so many enemies and haters over night, all because of the irresponsible chance he took at fame.

Ducky Bhai

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

Ducky Bhai started his YouTube journey with gaming and roasting content. He used to make roasts of popular YouTubers of his time. He was a young kid, and his feud with the then-biggest Pakistani YouTuber, Sham Idrees, made him an overnight star. Everyone suddenly knew who Ducky Bhai was, and with time, he kept evolving. He has given many statements over the years about including your family in content but with time, he ended up doing all those things himself. He has also been involved in various controversies, such as conflicts with colleagues like the Badla Brothers and disparaging those with degrees.

Sham Idrees

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

Sham Idrees is a Pakistani YouTuber hailing from Canada who ruled the Pakistani YouTube scene in the 2014-2017 era. His prank videos with his wife Queen Froggy were loved by millions when he got into a feud with Ducky Bhai, who was not yet a big name back then. As a big name in the community, Sham could have ignored Ducky and moved on, but their fights kept growing, and consequently, a hater army arose for the YouTuber who had to go through a really hard time then. He still makes content, but he is not as active as he used to be back in the day.

Nadir Ali

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

Nadir Ali is among the OG Pakistani YouTubers. He started with the prank videos, and he has worked hard over the years to create an audience for himself. His content has also evolved and now he is considered among the top podcasters in the country. He has interviewed many people in and out of Pakistan, but he keeps getting into unnecessary controversies, and many people who generally loved him were put off by his content. Nadir Ali has faced public criticism for his invasive and, at times, inappropriate line of questioning. His treatment of Saba Faisal, especially after her family experienced a significant controversy, raised eyebrows. Additionally, his question about Sunita Marshall’s religious conversion prompted several prominent stars to call him out.

Conclusion

Dark Side Of Viral Fame : Pakistani YouTubers Who Fell From Grace

YouTube was banned in Pakistan for an extended period, causing us to begin our journey on the platform later than many other countries. This put us at a disadvantage, as many basic guidelines surrounding content creation were not immediately understood by creators. However, Pakistanis have a natural talent for quickly adapting and learning, and they did just that. The platform has since evolved into a profitable venture, and because it is not regulated by Pakistani authorities, the business remains sustainable. This has led to the rise of many stars from the platform. These creators need to understand how far they can push their content and when it might be best to hold back. In many cases, Pakistani laws and authorities impose excessive censorship, and irresponsible content can put these creators in difficult situations.

Realization is required that after reaching a certain level of fame, you need to sustain it through quality work rather than relying on viral content, which may ultimately have negative consequences.

Dark Beauty Amna Ilyas Joins The Cast Of ‘Saath Din Mohabbat In’

Dark Beauty Amna Ilyas Joins The Cast Of 'Saath Din Mohabbat In'

Amna Ilyas has already reached heights in her not so long career. Redefining the meaning of beauty with her dark skin, the actress with her debut flick ‘Zinda Bhaag’ almost went to Oscars. On the other hand, she is one of the luckiest actresses because of working with Sabiha Sumar in critically acclaimed ‘Good Morning Karachi’. Now, she is all set to take her career up a notch with ‘Saath Din Mohabbat In’.

The sultry and ever gorgeous model will be seen sharing the screen with Mahira Khan, Mira Sethi, and Sheheryar Munawar in the film of versatile duo, Meenu and Farjad.

Talking about why she gave the green signal to acting after a long time, she revealed:

“I basically signed the film because Meenu and Farjad are great friends of mine. I also really liked my character, it’s that of a feminist and just a very strong female character, there’s a bit of action as well. I felt there was substance in it and I really wanted to take it up.”

“It also has a lot of acting margin, I think that’s all an actor is hungry for. Also I believe if you’re a good actor, you prove yourself no matter who’s standing in front of you.”

She also said that she is very good friends with Mira Sethi, who will be seen playing a Punjabi girl in the movie. Amna has high hopes with the film and so do we, which is expected to wrap up shooting by September this year.

Kubra Khan is one of the loveliest actresses of the Pakistani Entertainment industry. Kubra has done many dramas and has worked in multiple films like Jawani Phir Na Aani 2.

Kubra is all fun-loving and daring. She never hesitates to take risks and enjoys adventure.

We have seen actresses who prefer to reflect their delicate part out but in the case of Kubra, you will find many pictures of her in which she is all enjoying. Kubra loves to ski, loves to spend time at the beach, and yes, she is not afraid of dogs and that is what makes her further special.

Today, the last episode of the drama aired, fans didn’t admire the ending of the drama as they wanted to see the punishment of Sajal who was responsible of wrecking a happy home. Almost all the viewers were angry on incomplete wrap. A few viewers liked the lesson oriented ending of Shahveer, they were of the view that the illegal relationships are harmful to society and people lose their grace after indulging into illegal relationships and Shaheer faced the same fate. They were not at all happy from drama makers about leaving Sajal without punishment. Fans said that the story of the drama was too notorious and it needed a proper wrap which must depict the punishment of Sajal after destroying a home and deceiving Irha, her parents and Shaheer. Mostly, viewers were unsatisfied on the ending. Here are the comments under the last episode of the drama:

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Last Episode Review – Tear-Jerkingly Beautiful

This last episode covered a great deal from the complications of arranged marriages to the limitations of a joint family system. It also showed how far Sila and Sadia had come and how things had changed in Noor Manzil. Every single scene in tonight’s episode was beautifully penned down and executed perfectly. It is definitely the kind of episode which I will be watching again a few times. I will not give the details away about the ending because all of you who are following the show should watch it yourself. It is really difficult to pick a favorite scene from this last episode because there were so many scenes which were tear-jerkingly beautiful.

Thought provoking, gripping, intense and disturbing – dramas like Dar Si Jati Hei Sila don’t just happen overnight but a great deal of hard work goes into making them a success. This drama artfully and unapologetically highlighted many important issues which are most often brushed under the carpet or are not dealt with too seriously. The best part of this drama was that it had so many important messages for the victims as well as for the abusers! The writer Bee Gul’s layered and meaningful script coupled with Kashif Nisar’s immaculate direction and some of the most impressive performances by all the actors involved made this drama one of those very few plays which have a lasting impression.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Last Episode Review - Tear-Jerkingly Beautiful

Nauman Ijaz’s solid performance was the highlight of this show. Yumna Zaidi translated a difficult character faultlessly on screen; Sila hardly had any dialogues but it was never difficult connecting to her character because Yumna Zaidi’s expressions and body language always conveyed whatever Sila was going through. Saman Ansari’s brilliant performance as a woman who was always misunderstood and who had to fight all her battles alone made Sadia’s journey emotionally involving. Zaini’s character was refreshing and it had a lingering impact. Her character was beautifully etched-out and Aamna Malick’s performance was phenomenal throughout. Raheel’s character too was equally positive as well as interesting. Usama Tahir portrayed this character convincingly even though it went through different stages but his portrayal was always effortless. Sheikh Mubashar was well-suited for Hatim’s role and even though this was his first television appearance he never failed to impress. Although, Hatim didn’t get a lot of screen time but his story was poignant throughout and important as well. Sakina Samo was superb as Bari Aapa, I absolutely loved her in this character right from the first episode. Her style of acting was completely in line with the character she was playing. Kiran Haq deserves a special mention for nailing her character and turning things around. Munazzah Arif, Noor-ul-Hassan and Saleem Sheikh also gave solid and realistic performances throughout.

A big thanks to all those wonderful people who read the reviews every week and shared their thoughts in the comments section. This entire experience of watching and reviewing Dar Si Jati hei Sila wouldn’t have been the same without you all. Do share your thoughts about this last episode and also about the drama as a whole.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 9 Review – Right On Point!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila continues to be one of the most intelligently written plays on air at the moment. The variety of characters, impressive screenplay and realistic performances make this drama a must watch. The drama has also picked up pace and unlike before every episode offers something new. Tonight’s episode focused on Bari Aapa’s bizarre proposal which was readily accepted by those members of the family who thought that Sila and Joi’s marriage will help further their interests in some way. Everyone’s reaction was different and interesting in their own way. All these reactions were covered impressively as well.

I am glad that it wasn’t a Sila against the word kind of a situation but there were plenty of people who could see just how inappropriate and unfair this decision was. The fact that the writer has told this story without any reservations and has allowed the viewers to draw conclusions from different events makes it more attractive. Raheel and Zaini once again did whatever they could to help Sila, Sadia did whatever she thought would make Joi change his mind and Tullo and Noshi supported the decision because both of them want to see Raheel and Zaini getting married. Sikandar’s reaction did not come as a surprise as well since he trusts Joi and he would be happy to hand over his responsibilities to him.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 9 Review - Right On Point!

Zaini’s father’s character is another one which is being revealed gradually and is fast becoming my favorite since he is the only one who can see that Joi isn’t as harmless as he appears to be and also someone who truly values his daughter although that is not the norm in Noor Manzil! His reaction when Noshi told him what was going on in the house was priceless. Also, when Bari Aapa told him all those lies, he chose to trust his own daughter. This went to show that how a father’s trust and faith in his daughter can shape up her personality in a good way. Although everyone blames Sila for the “flaws” in her personality but no one except Zaini can see that her father is the one who is actually responsible for them. This could be because Zaini knows what it’s like to have a father who loves and supports you. The only reason why Sadia and Sila are in this situation is that the man in their lives who is supposed to look after them hasn’t only abandoned them but also holds them responsible for whatever goes wrong in his life.

Like every other episode of this drama, this episode too had many meaningful conversations which revealed a little bit more about the characters. Zaini feels frustrated now because she thinks that Sila is not even trying to change the situation she is in and at the same time she also feels that Sila is stronger than Raheel since she had the guts to tell her father that she did not want to get married to Raheel. While Raheel has “forgiven” Sila, his mother has not been able to do so. It was ironic how Bari Aapa made up so many stories after seeing Raheel and Zaini together but she can never tell what kind of a person Joi is even when she watches him do something which is anything but normal! Bari Aapa’s “blind love” for Joi is the main reason why even those people in the house who can see that he is a twisted character decide to keep their opinion to themselves. Joi constantly devises plans to put Sadia in difficult situations and he always executes them confidently because he knows that he has the support of his Aapa!

Overall, this was another brilliant episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila with some exceptional performances to its credit. The director Kashif Nisar has done complete justice to Bee Gul’s script and the honesty with which all the actors have translated their characters on screen clearly shows in the final product. Noor-ul-Hassan’s solid performance as Saleem in this play and his brilliant performances in Aangan and Meeras have completely won me over. Nauman Ijaz, Sakina Samo, Saman Ansari, Aamna Malick, Munazzah Arif and Yumna Zaidi’s performances have been faultless throughout.

The preview of the next episode was powerful. Looking forward to how the story unfolds from here on.

How many of you watched tonight’s episode? Don’t forget to share your thoughts about it.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 8 Review – Perfect!

This had to be the best episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila so far since it didn’t only have quite a few interesting developments to its credit but these developments also indicated that there might be some hope for Sila after all. The recent changes in Zaini and Raheel’s characters have changed the overall feel of the play, it was too dark and depressing before but now these characters have added some positivity to the story. This episode was also well paced, brilliantly written and directed and all the performances were impressive. All the actors have translated their characters impeccably on screen and the attention to detail makes you forget that you are watching a drama. Dar Si Jati Hei Sila has to be one of those very few dramas nowadays which address a serious topic in a way which is appropriate. The script is well thought out and therefore effective. After watching this particular episode, I am more interested in finding out how the story unfolds in the future.

Tonight’s episode opened with Sila trying to untangle a skein of yarn while Bari Aapa kept on “distracting” her by complaining about her mother and sharing details of her mother’s callous behavior which had resulted in her husband distancing himself from her. Bari Aapa is one of those women who are convinced that even if a man does something dreadfully wrong, it has to be a woman’s fault in some way or the other. The way Raheel came to Sila’s rescue showed the roles both these characters were playing in Sila’s life. While Bari Aapa was constantly adding to Sila’s troubles, Raheel had now realized that he was in a position to help Sila and he wasn’t going to let anyone stop him. Not very long ago, Raheel too judged Sila the way everyone else does but when Zaini made him understand Sila’s position in the house and educated him about the role they could play in this situation, he changed completely. Zaini used the influence she exercises on him in a positive manner which has to be the most refreshing development so far. Sakina Samo’s acting has been brilliant throughout, the way she delivers the dialogues and her gestures show how controlling she is. Her character is etched-out brilliantly as well, she has her favorites and no matter what happens she will continue supporting them.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 8 Review - Perfect!

Once again Joi’s attitude towards Sadia in front of Sikandar and his dialogues showed how he has managed to fool him for all these years. Just like Bari Aapa Sikandar too always looks down upon Sadia and has a very high opinion of Joi. He doesn’t think Sadia deserves so much respect and feels that Joi can protect his wife and daughter while he is away. The fact is that Sikandar doesn’t even care about Sadia and Sila therefore shifting the responsibility to Joi’s shoulders is the easy way out. Zaini’s character and the manner in which she took a stand for Sila more than once was the highlight of the episode. Zaini uses her confidence and outspoken nature to help Sila in her own way instead of belittling her the way Bari Aapa does. Zaini’s honesty is the best part of her character.

Raheel’s mother’s conversation with him while he looked out of the window was one of the many conversations tonight showing how no one had any idea about what kind of a person Joi really was. This scene also indicated that Raheel might sooner or later find out what is going on but there are also chances that he might misinterpret the situation the way Sila has been doing. My favorite scene from tonight’s episode was the one in which Sila cleans her table and looks at herself in the mirror, it showed that she liked Raheel and for the first time there was something she was excited about and was looking forward to. So far everything is going exactly the way Joi has planned, he is constantly devising new ways to torture Sadia. The preview of the next episode was enticing, I am looking forward to finding out how Zaini and Raheel will stop this marriage from taking place.

Amna Malik, Yumna Zaidi and Osama Tahir have nailed their respective performances. Nauman Ijaz and Saman Ansari’s phenomenal performances make you forget every other role they have played so far. Dar Jati Hei Sila has a lot going for it and is a must-watch for all those viewers who want to watch a serious drama with a solid storyline, brilliant direction and flawless performances.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 7 Review – Highs & Lows

This was another episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila with some really solid performances to its credit and this time around too Zaini’s character stood out more than any other. The relationship dynamics between all the characters have been well established by now therefore the story needs to pick up pace. Although I would prefer a slow-paced and non-commercial venture like this drama highlighting an important social issue any day of the week to one of those commercial dramas which follow a specific pattern but I also feel that there is a great deal of repetition in every episode. A lot of things which are being shown in detail are also being said over and over again which is why there are times when you feel like some of these conversations do not add much to the story. The drama has a realistic feel to it which is why even with the slow pace it keeps your interest alive. Also, I feel that dramas like this one deserve to be watched so that Pakistani drama makers would have incentive to continue making dramas which serve a bigger purpose.

This episode once again showed how Joi ran the show in Noor Manzil. He managed to turn the entire situation around single-handedly. Sadia and Sila both would have loved the prospect of moving out of Noor Manzil and away from Joi but Joi wasn’t going to let that happen. He did everything in his power to make sure that ultimately Sadia refused to go to Canada. It was wonderful watching Sadia take a stand because she knew that Sila won’t be safe without her. Sila however cannot see that her mother is taking all these decisions to protect her. Sila’s impression of what is going on between Joi and Sadia is totally opposite to what is really happening between them therefore she sees things differently. She blames her mother because she feels that she is having an affair with Joi and perhaps also because in her opinion her mother has not done much to make her feel secure in Noor Manzil. There are times when you feel like Sila is taking out her own frustrations on her mother and for her hating her mother is an act of rebellion, perhaps something which makes her feel liberated. Yumna Zaidi and Saman Ansari’s brilliant performances make their characters easier to relate to and make you forget that you are watching a play! Both these characters are difficult to translate on screen but these brilliant actresses are portraying them faultlessly and effortlessly. Nauman Ijaz is absolutely exceptional as Joi. The exceptionally impressive performances from all these actors are one of the major reasons why I tune into this drama every week.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 7 Review - Highs & Lows

Zaini’s conversation with Raheel summed up the difference between how people perceive something and how it really is. Zaini’s character is turning out to be a breath of fresh air since she is the only person in Noor Manzil who thinks differently. While Joi managed to convince everyone else in the house rather conveniently that Sila had a mental illness, Zaini was the only one who wondered why Sila was frightened of everyone and everything without declaring her a “pagal”! She is also the only person, Sila ever has a normal conversation with therefore she knows Sila better than anyone else. I am so glad that the relationship between Zaini and Sila didn’t take a typical turn. Amna Malik and Yumna Zaidi also share great on screen chemistry which is why their scenes together are realistic and impactful.

The relationship between Joi and Aapa is very interesting and amusing at the same time. While Aapa is always busy judging everyone else, she has no clue what Joi is doing. She keeps on supporting Joi unconditionally and there are times when her scenes make you laugh as well! I absolutely love Sakina Samo in this role and I am waiting to see what role Aapa will play as the story progresses.

Overall, this drama has enough substance to keep me coming back for more but it would have been picture perfect if some of the scenes were chopped down and the pace of the drama was relatively faster.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 6 Review – Complicated Relationships

I truly appreciate the fact that the makers of the drama and the actors involved have put in a lot of hard work into this project but there are plenty of scenes in every episode which are repetitive. I don’t mind watching a drama which is slow paced as long as every episode offers something new and there is no repetition. The different shades of the characters are being revealed gradually therefore I am pretty sure that the writer has a lot of surprises in store for the viewers, the drama however will be much more interesting if it picks up pace. Some of the scenes covering the family politics in this episode were stretched but the scenes covering Sila and Sadia’s track and the one’s showing the change in Zaini’s behavior were to the point and added something new to the story.

This episode opened with Sila packing Hathim’s bag and telling him to go back to the hostel because he deserved better than staying in Noor Manzil. Hathim and Sila’s relationship has to be the best part of this drama because very often in dramas like this one, the victim hardly ever has someone in the family who tries to understand her and supports her. Hathim and Sila love each other and they have their own ways of showing this love for each other. Hathim wants to stay in Noor Manzil because that is the only way in which he can protect Sila and Sila wants him to leave because she wants him to stay away from all the negativity which is a part of everyday life in Noor Manzil especially for this particular family. The actor playing Hathim’s role is doing complete justice to his role and Yumna Zaidi has been handling her role superbly too. These two also share amazing on screen chemistry.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 6 Review - Complicated Relationships

Saman Ansari’s performance in this episode was just as remarkable as it has been throughout. She gives you so many reasons to feel for Sadia and you understand her helplessness completely. Unlike Sila, there is no one in the house who understands or loves Sadia. Even Sila hates her mother because she thinks that her mother has been highly irresponsible and selfish. This episode once again showed that although Sila didn’t have the confidence to share her opinion in front of her father but she told her mother exactly what she thought about her every chance she got. Sila’s conversation with Zaini showed the difference between these girls and it was really good to see Zaini trying to convince Sila to take a stand for herself.

Raheel’s character has taken an unpredictable and interesting turn. It was good to see him taking a stand for Sila. Sikandar was shown judging his wife and daughter once again without questioning his own behavior towards them even once. Joi understands Sikandar’s mindset a little too well, which is why he does whatever he can to manipulate him. The scene in which Sadia “presented” herself to Joi but he refused went to show that this was more about taking control than anything else. Nauman Ijaz has never played such a character before but he is beyond amazing as Joi. His body language, overall outlook and expressions are always faultless.

The most appealing aspect of this drama has to be the seriousness with which different issues have been highlighted and the variety of characters. There are plenty of characters who are now supporting Sila in their own ways which is a good change. The downside of the play is the emphasis on family politics and the overall pace of the show. The preview of the next episode looked really interesting, Zaini’s character is turning out to be my favorite! She is an unapologetic strong girl who knows exactly what she wants and is completely capable of helping someone in need!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 5 Review – Truly Disturbing

This episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila had to be one of the most powerful episodes of this drama so far. It is always great watching a play which has been written and executed with the sole purpose of getting a specific message across as opposed to focusing entirely on shortcuts which would guarantee ratings. The director Kashif Nisar and all the actors involved have done complete justice to Bee Gul’s script which is why every episode of this drama is truly disturbing. Bee Gul is known for showing topics which are tabooed in a bold manner on screen and this drama is no different. I truly appreciate the fact that everything is being executed without unnecessarily sensationalizing different aspects of the story.

Every character in this drama contributes in some way or the other to the story which is essentially about Sila and Sadia but says so much about the double standards in Noor Manzil which I belive represents our society in general – people who are quick to judge women and expect a great deal from them too! The confidence with which Joi harasses and blackmails Sadia and the manner in which everyone covers up for him shows how easy it is for men to get away with something like this especially when they have someone powerful behind them. Sadia and Sila’s helplessness shows how difficult it is for a woman to survive in the society if her husband or father is someone like Sikandar!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 5 Review - Truly Disturbing

Sikandar’s overall attitude towards his wife in particular represents the shocking double standards in our society which are often accepted as “normal”.  Noshi’s character represents all those opportunists who put their interests above everything else. Zaini is a feminist who is bold and vocal but she is not a negative person. Her character won me over completely today because we don’t get to see such characters very often in our dramas. Until the last episode she appeared to be someone who did not care about anyone else except herself but tonight the viewers saw a very different side of her character. Zaini might not like Sila’s personality overall and she makes fun of her every now and then too but tonight she told Raheel off and gave him a reality check because she could not see Sila being put through so much only because she shared with her father what she thought about Raheel. Although Sila told Zaini that quitting college was her own choice but Zaini did not believe her.

Hathim’s character is an interesting addition to the play as well. He is the only person who cares about Sila enough to treat her like a living and breathing human being. Since he knows that he enjoys a special status in Noor Manzil, he used his position to help Sila in his own way. Hathim and Sila’s relationship shows a different side of Sila’s personality as well. He is the only person Sila ever has a real conversation with and the only person who keeps on reminding her that she deserves better. The scene in which Sadia shouted at Hathim clearly indicated that he was not Sikandar’s son. He is the reason why Sadia is being blackmailed and the main reason why Joi knows he can get away with anything at all.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 5 Review - Truly Disturbing

All the characters in this play are brilliantly etched-out and the story finally seems to be taking off now. Gradually, the viewers are finding out more about the characters and a few of them have some interesting surprises in store! This drama has some amazing performances to its credit as well. Nauman Ijaz is beyond brilliant as Joi, I personally know people who are his fans and are not watching this play anymore because this play makes them hate him as Joi! Saman Ansari’s performance in tonight’s episode in particular was absolutely faultless and extremely powerful. Yumna Zaidi is doing complete justice to a really difficult role. All the other actors are also giving realistic and impressive performances.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 4 Review – Highs and Lows!

This was another episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila which showed the family dynamics in Noor Manzil in detail. There was a great deal of focus on Joi’s character just like the previous episodes. All of his scenes showed how cleverly he turned different situations in his favour. He exploited his sister because he knew she loved him and therefore would easily fall for the emotional blackmail. Joi also brainwashed Hathim and Sikandar because he understood the fact that they felt rejected by rest of the family members and were already disturbed. He constantly blackmailed and threatened Sadia because he knows Sikandar won’t think twice before divorcing her if he finds out she cheated on him and she will lose support of the family too. Joi is an evil person who is also really clever; this is a deadly combination which makes this character one of the most creepy and disturbing characters we have seen in recent times. Joi’s character is especially disturbing because he only shows his evil side to those people who he knows he can suppress and dominate. Otherwise, he has the image of a perfect harmless individual who has never even smoked a cigarette in his life!

The opening scene of this episode yet again showed the difference between Sila and Zaini’s character. While Sila had a difficult time having a normal conversation with her own father, Zaini demanded something from him confidently and got exactly what she wanted. Sikandar was shown belittling his wife and daughter every chance he got. His attitude said a great deal about the reason for Sila and Sadia’s weak position in the house. It seemed like Sadia knew that Sikandar had a girlfriend or perhaps another wife abroad because she was really angry when someone sent Sikandar a message on his phone. Zaini’s dialogues on the breakfast table showed how the men in Noor Manzil got special treatment but Sikandar was constantly bullied by his bhabi who exercises much more power than her husband and all the men in the family combined together!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 4 Review - Highs and Lows!

My favorite scene from tonight’s episode was the one in which Sadia tells Sila to marry Raheel because he was her ticket out of this house. Even though Sila knew Raheel did not love her, she tried to have a “normal” conversation with him – something which was a huge deal for her! Zaini’s entry however changed everything and served as a reality check. This was the first time that Sila spoke her mind but was forced into staying quiet yet again. Sila’s relationship with her brother was heart-warming and their conversations meaningful. Every time Sila tries to think for herself she is forced to follow orders therefore she no longer has an opinion about anything at all.

This episode ended on an interesting note and even though the pace of this drama is slow, so far it has been directed brilliantly and some of the actors especially are performing superbly. Nauman Ijaz is beyond amazing as Joi, Yumna Zaidi’s character is extremely challenging since she has hardly any dialogues but her portrayal is powerful, Saman Ansari continues to impress in another different role and Sakina Samo has nailed her character. The biggest weakness of this drama so far is that the viewers still don’t know a lot about Sila’s character and she doesn’t have enough dialogues. Even though it is easy to understand why she has such a weak personality but even then it would have been easier to relate to what she is going through if we knew more about what she has been through in the past. I am sure that these details will be revealed gradually but the curiosity is killing me! Also, some of the scenes and scenarios are repetitive already.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 3 Review – Exceptional Performances

Like every other episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila, this one too had some amazing performances to its credit. I am especially impressed with Nauman Ijaz and Yumna Zaidi’s perfect portrayals of characters which are not easy to translate on screen. Nauman Ijaz never ceases to impress the viewers with his versatility and performances which make you forget even his most impressive recent performances. Every time you watch him play a role on screen you think that he cannot outdo this one but he surprises you even more with his next project! Joi’s character has many shades, he is a completely different person when he is with Sadia and Sila and someone completely trustworthy and decent when he is around Sikandar especially. One thing about his character which stands out more than any other is that on the surface he appears to be a completely harmless man who one wouldn’t expect to be smart enough to blackmail and mentally torture someone. Sila’s character is especially difficult to translate on screen because she doesn’t have a lot of dialogues. Most often Yumna Zaidi has to convey Sila’s feelings through her body language and expressions and she is doing so remarkably. Yumna Zaidi is a powerful performer who puts her heart and soul into all her projects and this one isn’t too different either.

Sikandar’s character played by Saleem Sheikh was introduced in this episode. The way Sadia and Sila reacted to his arrival was strange even though Sadia told her husband that she felt more secure when he was around but Sila and Sadia somehow looked fearful when they learned that he was there. Sikandar’s attitude towards his wife and daughter is the main reason why Joi is so confident. Sikandar did not even acknowledge his daughter and does not even respect his wife therefore they have absolutely no support in the house. Sikandar continuously implied that Sadia had the ideal life and cannot even remotely relate to how life must be for his wife and daughter. The scene in which the entire family was taking a picture and Sadia was standing behind the curtain watching them reminded me of the scene in ORangreza in which Sassi, Khayyam and Sonia Jahan were taking a picture and Mumtaz was looking at them like an outsider.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 3 Review - Exceptional Performances

The way Raheel pressurized Sila to do something to stop this marriage from taking place was terribly sad. Although it is understandable why he feels he can never be happy with Sila, I didn’t expect him to pressurize Sila the way he did. There were few scenes in which it looked like Zaini actually cared for Sila. Although she clearly flirts with Raheel and belittles Sila every chance she gets but there were a few scenes in which she looked genuinely concerned for Sila. Some of the scenes covering the family politics tend to be clichéd but other than that the overall feel of the play is different.

Right from the first episode Joi has been trying his best to ensure that Sila does not get married. In the previous episodes he was trying to prove that Sila was mentally unfit and tonight he kept on telling Sila that Raheel was in love with Zaini. The preview of the next episode showed that Sila will finally succumb to the pressure.

Saman Ansari and Sakina Samo have also been performing exceptionally well. So far, the family dynamics have been shown in such a way that you clearly understand why it is so easy for Joi to exploit Sila and Sadia. Sila’s character represents every girl like her out there who has no one to turn to and absolutely no one who understands her. The pace of the drama is slow but it has enough substance to keep your interest alive. I do hope however that the story picks up pace in upcoming weeks. The overall feel and the way this drama has been directed is superb so far.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 24 Review – Powerful & Hard-hitting

Tonight’s episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila was simply amazing! This drama never fails to impress; It is a well-crafted, brilliantly told tale of both the dark and the good side of relationships. Most importantly it is filled with powerful messages which have been brought to life in a compelling manner by everyone involved. The skillful direction, a script which couldn’t have been more on point and outstanding performances make this drama one of the very few dramas of its kind which remained poignant and effective throughout.

I must say that tonight’s episode was so intense that it would be hard for me to pen my thoughts down. Also, I feel that no praise words can do justice to the depth and precision with which this drama has touched upon so many important issues. Although every episode of this drama has some important and impactful message but this episode was especially significant because Sila finally broke her silence and Bari Apa for the first time saw Joi for who he really was. Just like every other episode of this drama, this one too shed light on the important role a father plays in a family; a father’s duty isn’t only to earn for his family but his primary responsibility is to give them love and protection. Bari Apa’s character shows that with great power come even greater responsibilities! She let Joi make a complete fool out of her and it was really good to see her admitting her mistake. Her dialogues, just like all the other dialogues tonight, were spectacular. They reflected her state of mind perfectly and it could easily pass as the moment we had all been waiting for.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 24 Review - Powerful & Hard-hitting

The underlying message behind Sila breaking her silence and the change that followed is the same as Udaari but the way it has been presented is far more powerful. The fact that this drama has no commercial element makes it a masterpiece. When a victim decides to stand up for herself nothing can stand in her way – what an inspiring message presented faultlessly on screen. Yumna Zaidi’s honest and powerfully moving performance in this episode made her scenes unforgettable. Although Nauman Ijaz has a vast career and he has given many impressive performances but this is most certainly one of his finest performances. His expressions throughout this episode were remarkable. Saman Ansari’s gripping performance in this drama has been one of the many reasons why Sadia’s character was always easy to connect to.

Zaini’s character has always been one of my favorites and tonight too she gave words to my feelings. Everything she said made perfect sense and I hope that there are fathers out there who are watching this show and will learn something from it. Aamna Malick’s convincing performance made this character even more likeable and impactful.

Bee Gul and Kashif Nisar continue to break taboos and push boundaries, we need more people like them in the entertainment industry who know how to entertain and educate simultaneously. A special shout out to MD Productions because every now and then they continue to head plays which offer something different. Dar Si Jati Hei Sila is a must-watch for all those people who like watching thought-provoking dramas which fit the bill. (primetimetallahassee.com) This drama will not disappoint you and it will give you tons to reflect upon. I sincerely believe that dramas like this one give the victims hope and courage and they show people like Sikandar, Joi and Bari Aapa the mirror. They also play an important role in educating the masses.

The preview of the next episode was the only disappointing part of this recent episode because it gave the final twist away! Tonight’s episode however couldn’t have been more powerful and hard-hitting.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 23 Review – Brilliant As Usual!

This was another mind-blowing episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila; poignant, meaningful and significant. The secret is finally out and this time around Sadia decided she needed to speak up. The writer laid down the perfect foundations for everything that happened today. I always felt that Sadia was giving Joi these “favors” to save her daughter because every time she told him off, he mentioned Sila and that’s when she decided to “cooperate” with him therefore when Sadia told Sila just that, it made perfect sense and didn’t come as a surprise at all. For Sila however this news was shocking since she had always thought that her mother was doing all this for her own pleasure, she never looked at things from this angle. Sadia’s character and her circumstances couldn’t have been translated on screen more impressively. I never had trouble understanding her character and I always felt that Sikandar was the one to be blamed for everything. Sikandar always plays the victim card whenever he is faced with such a situation. He takes up his manly role whenever he gets a chance to tell Sadia off or to put her down but he has never been there for his wife and children. Unfortunately, our society is filled with men like him, who know their rights really well but never try to understand their duties! This is a classic case of a husband expecting everything from his wife and giving absolutely nothing in return – not even respect or acceptance!

Joi continued to play his games and even this latest development didn’t affect him in any way. He knows that he has nothing to lose and right now he is also confident that his aapa will go on supporting him therefore he continued to harass Sadia and Sila both. Joi is an evil man, he is so vile that it is truly upsetting to think how such men exploit women in joint families. Aapa blamed everything on Sadia mainly because of the fact that no one is there to plead her case. She has heard only Joi’s side of the story and she trusts him with her eyes closed. This entire scenario goes to show how dangerous it is to trust someone so blindly. It is like giving such a man a license to do whatever he wants. Finally bare bhaiya decided to speak up and everything he said suggested that he was far more open-minded and fair than his wife. Whatever Zaini’s father said to Sikandar was also on point but just like always Sikandar continued to blame Sadia for everything.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 23 Review - Brilliant As Usual!

Tonight, I felt for Hatim more than any other character since he has just found out why his mother rejected and hated him all his life but he has no idea what he should do. Sheikh Mubashir’s solid performance tonight made Hatim’s scenes even more impactful. The scene in which he protects his mother was simply amazing, Saman Ansari and Sheikh Mubashir’s acting and timing and the entire situation was extremely distressing as well as emotional. I don’t have the words to praise Nauman Ijaz’a overall performance in this play and his brilliant performance in this episode. He definitely deserves an award for his performance. Zaini’s character continues to impress, she is a perfect example of an enlightened woman who is strong, positive and caring. Yumna Zaidi and Amna Malick’s performances were the highlight of tonight’s episode. Yumna Zaidi’s expressions in the last scene of this episode said so much about Sila’s state of mind.

This episode was simply amazing, it was the kind of episode which leaves you distressed but at the same time gives you hope that things might eventually change for these women. Sila will finally speak up in the upcoming episode, I can’t wait to find out what she has to say and how it affects everyone. The preview of the next episode also showed that Bari Aapa will finally see Joi for who he is!! Dar Si Jati Hei Sila is one of the most impressive dramas of this season which has been meaningful and faultless right from the first episode. We definitely need more dramas like this one.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 22 Review – Intense!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila is the only play right now which I truly look forward to watching all week and it never disappoints. The compelling and realistic performances by all the actors, dialogues and conversations which are effective, meaningful, impactful as well as engaging because they are executed flawlessly by an ace director, who has proved yet again just how amazing he is at what he does are few of the reasons why this drama is a class above the rest. Saman Ansari’s outstanding performance, Nadia’s parting dialogue, the scene covering Sila’s response when Nadia shouts out the truth and Raheel’s dialogues when Joi tried to escape the situation were some of the best moments of this episode.

This episode opened with Zaini getting married and later on what seemed like an end to a tiring day took a turn which changed everything for everyone in Noor Manzil. Although Nadia decided to leave Noor Manzil after realizing that no one was going to believe her but she didn’t go without saying everything that was on her mind. Her dialogues were mind blowing and covered so much!! Nadia’s character has been the most brilliant addition to this play. Even though her character was introduced only a few weeks back yet she has played a major role in changing the course of the story. Kiran Haq’s performance has been powerful throughout, she understands and owns this character. Nadia’s fearless personality has been a delight to watch because her character has been written beautifully and has been translated on screen superbly.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 22 Review - Intense!

Sadia’s reaction when everyone seemed to believe Joi, was covered really well. That scream was a mix of pain and helplessness and it couldn’t have been more on point. It was an apt response to a situation which wasn’t in her control. Saman Ansari translated the pain and agony Sadia had endured quietly for all these years impeccably on screen and this time around when she couldn’t hold it back anymore she let it out in the most powerful manner. Although for all these weeks Sila had been trying to convince herself that she didn’t love Hatim any more but when everything came out in the open, she instinctively rushed to save him. This was one of the most poignant scenes in this episode. Hatim and Sila’s relationship has always been one of the best parts of this drama and now that things have taken a turn for the worse, Hatim will find out the ugly truth. I am waiting to find out how far Sila will be willing to go to save the only person she truly loves in Noor Manzil.

The viewers also found out today why Bari Aapa’s husband lets her run the show – the reason made tons of sense. It also goes to show just how well thought out this script is, there is a good reason for everything no matter how minute it is. Sikandar always wanted Sadia out of his life and this was the perfect time for him to leave her therefore he wasn’t interested in finding out the details but wanted a verdict which suit his needs. Nauman Iajz and Sakina Samo’s performances have been remarkable right from the first episode, they give every single scene their best.

Overall, this episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila was mind-blowing and the next episode is going to be even more powerful. Can’t wait to find out what will happen once everyone finds out Hatim is Joi’s son!

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 21 Review – Loved It!

This was another meaningful episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila filled with positivity and depth. The writer has intelligently put forward the most inspiring messages and the dialogues are always the highlight of every episode. The language used is easy, the conversations are concise and every scene says a great deal about the characters and their story. Nadia’s outburst tonight and Bari Apa and Joi’s reactions yet again showed that these two only managed to dominate everyone in the house because their dominance was so readily accepted! Even though Joi did whatever he could to intimidate Nadia but she stood her ground and ultimately got what she wanted. This entire episode focused on one really important aspect – you have to fight for your rights yourself and if you do, you most surely get what you deserve. However, it is easier said than done, something which is clear from Sila and Sadia’s situation in the house. Even if someone like Sikandar had a wife like Nadia, he wouldn’t have treated her, the way he treats Sadia. Kiran Haq is beyond amazing as Nadia, her gestures and dialogue delivery couldn’t have been better. The character has been written brilliantly too. Nadia’s dialogues about Joi’s “hasiyat” were brilliant! She gives Bari Apa and Joi the kind of reality check which no one else can. The director Kashif Nisar also deserves tons of appreciation for giving this script the right treatment.

Nauman Ijaz continues to impress as Joi. Joi’s personality has many different shades but so far the most conspicuous one of them all is that even though he harasses Sila and has been blackmailing Sadia for years but the fact is that he is a coward. Highlighting this side of Joi’s character was crucial to the role and Nauman Ijaz did just that. Everything that Zaini said to Sila tonight was an extension of the same message which was highlighted over and over again in this episode. This is such an important message and could actually benefit a lot of girls out there who think they don’t deserve better and who feel that whatever abuse they are subjected to is their fault. Aamna Malick has been phenomenal as Zaini. Her character is one of the best female characters we have seen in our dramas in recent times and Aamna Malick has done complete justice to it. The best part of this drama is that there are all kinds of characters in the play. This drama is free of stereotypes and all the characters are there for a reason. The positive and negative characters are equally important and the drama wouldn’t have been the same if even one character was missing from it.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 21 Review - Loved It!

Hatim’s scene in this episode again was poignant. His character is so convincing which is why you can’t help feeling for him. Although he was never loved by his own mother and naturally he feels deprived but his approach is so positive and he is so loving. His scenes are heart-wrenching because every scene highlights his weaknesses as well as his strengths. I don’t remember watching a character like this one ever in our dramas, so nuanced and intelligently written.

Raheel and Zaini’s father’s characters show that not all men are narrow-minded and controlling. The fact that these two men did whatever they could to make sure that Zaini gets to do exactly what she wants sends out a great message and gives men like these due credit! Bari Apa’s reaction to Zaini’s future plans was shown accurately too, Sakina Samo’s body language and dialogue delivery has been brilliant! It is interesting how the writer has shown the difference between women who really are strong (Nadia and Zaini) and a woman (Bari Apa) who is only in control because of those people who are so willing to be controlled! Zaini and Nadia know exactly what they deserve and they believe that they are right therefore they always stand their ground, Bari Apa on the other hand is being unfair therefore she doesn’t have a lot to say in her defense when someone confronts her.

Tonight’s episode was brilliant as usual. Everything about this drama has been phenomenal; the subject, the messages, the performances, the direction and the dialogues. The preview of the next episode suggested that Nadia will finally find out about Sadia and Joi’s relationship. Can’t wait to watch what happens next!

How many of you watched tonight’s episode? Do share your thoughts about it and especially about Bari Apa’s reaction when Nadia gave her a piece of her mind!! Wasn’t it hilarious and so gratifying!

This was another brilliant episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila. Nadia’s character is turning out to be one of the most significant characters in this drama for many reasons. Apart from giving a different perspective to everything, she also adds some lighthearted moment to a drama which is essentially dark. Nadia’s “billi se daro gay tu wo sher ban jaye gi.” dialogue aptly narrowed down the reason why Bari Apa controls everyone and everything Noor Manzil. This dialogue wasn’t only true for Bari Apa but also for Joi. The only reason why a man like Joi has been getting away with so much is that he has successfully managed to intimidate Sadia and Sila. Joi and Sadia’s conversation tonight also suggested that Sadia does whatever it takes to please Joi because that is the only way to save Sila. He often asks about Sila whenever she doesn’t do what he says – it seems like that is his way of threatening Sadia. Kiran Haq owns her role completely and never fails to impress. Nauman Ijaz has been beyond exceptional as Joi throughout and Saman Ansari is doing complete justice to a really difficult role. Every scene of this drama carries weight and is executed superbly.

In this episode Raheel was more eager than ever to find out what exactly was going on. He is an intelligent man who can tell that there is more to this especially because of the way Sadia is reacting to this entire situation. Sila’s dialogues in this episode when she told Raheel and Zaini what she went through and how she felt were brilliantly written. Yumna Zaidi’s remarkable performance and the way Zaini and Raheel’s reactions were covered made this scene impactful. Sila is a victim but like many other victims like her she feels that she is responsible for what happened to her because she couldn’t stop her abuser. She also feels this way because she constantly hears what a nice person Joi is and how flawed she is. This scene was extremely touching and it highlighted the plight of a victim perfectly.

Sadia conversation with Sila this time too revolved around convincing her to stay quiet since she really believes herself that it is the only way they will be “safe”. The biggest reason for this is that Hatim is Joi’s son therefore no matter what they tell anyone about Joi, ultimately she is the one who will be ridiculed and punished. The fact that Nadia isn’t expecting also raises a lot of questions about whether Hatim really is Joi’s son but somehow Sadia is convinced that he is. Although Joi has convinced Sadia that she is the only one who will have to bear the brunt if their secret ever comes out but his reaction every time he hears someone coming suggests something different. Joi is a completely different person with Nadia because he knows he cannot dominate her the way he does with Sadia and Sila. I have a feeling that Nadia will play a positive role in this entire situation because so far she has been shown as someone who is honest and fair.

Raheel is gradually getting closer to the truth and I am waiting to find out what he is going to do once he finds out what is happening. Tonight, he also made sure that Nadia knew Joi couldn’t be trusted. While Zaini’s mother is still planning her daughter’s wedding, the preview of the next episode suggested that Zaini might have other plans. Hatim and Sila’s scene together in this episode as well was short but really touching. Hatim’s love for Sila is unconditional and even though Sila is trying her best to change the way she feels about Hatim, the fact is that she loves him as well and nothing can change that.

The preview of the next episode showed Nadia confronting Bari Apa and saying exactly what needed to be said! Joi once again harassed Sila – will she be able to take a stand for herself this time? This drama shows how very often a little courage goes a long way.

Dar Si Jati Hei Sila Episode 2 Review – Impressive Performances

The second episode of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila gave the viewers a more detailed insight into the family dynamics in Noor Manzil – a place which holds many secrets, one in which those who have power exploit other family members who are dependent on them. On the surface it looks like all these people living in Noor Manzil form a perfect family unit but that is clearly not the case. This episode showed why Sadia was so helpless and what was the reason behind Sila’s lack of confidence which was the root cause of all the other problems in her life. The fact that I actually wanted to forward Joi’s scenes because they were so disturbing goes to show just how brilliantly Nauman Ijaz has translated this character on screen. Sadia and Sila do not only have to live under the same roof with him but Sikandar also trusts him blindly! Sikandar has a life of his own in Canada and has no time for his wife and daughter which is why they are completely dependent on his relatives. Yumna Zaidi and Saman Ansari once again gave solid performances and Sakina Samo is spot on as the woman who is so busy judging others that she fails to see the wrongdoings of her own brother.

Raheel’s conversation with his mother showed why she had to go ahead with this engagement even though her son did not want to get engaged to Sila. Zaini flirts with Raheel and also plays hard to get which is why he finds her even more attractive! Zaini and Sila are poles apart which is probably why Joi chose those women in the house who are weaker and would never have taken a stand for themselves. Zaini also tells Joi off every chance she gets. Even though Joi held Sadia’s hand and harassed her openly but his Aapa and Noshi both failed to see what he was doing because of his “impression” as well as his position in the house. He is the brother of the woman whose husband runs the house therefore even if someone found out what was going on they are more likely to blame Sadia and Sila. This is the main reason why Sadia takes out her frustration and anger on Sila instead of finding a way out. Sila’s breakdown and anger was shown superbly in this episode as well. The scene covering Sila’s reaction after she sees Joi and her mother together was the most powerful scene of this episode. Bee Gul’s plays always have at least one female character which does not conform to the norms and is strong, I am waiting to see if Sila will be one such character as the story progresses. Right now although Sila has been shown as a victim but she has not been shown as a lifeless character. She is quite outspoken and expressive whenever she is around her mother. Sadia and Sila both are completely different people when they are with each other, they are more submissive when they are around everyone else.

The Chaudhry Kashif Nisar scene showed that Joi’s sisters ran the show in the house. She has been shown bossing everyone around including her husband, this is the reason why Joi knows that he can get away with everything. This second episode took the story forward, the focus was on the main characters and their relationship with each other. Tonight’s episode had some exceptional performances to its credit. I am waiting for the story to take off but I am glad that the writer is giving the viewers time to warm up to the characters. Kashif Nisar is a brilliant director who delivers every single time and Bee Gul has given us a few phenomenal plays therefore I have high expectations from this drama. I am all for dramas which highlight issues that are usually brushed under the carpet and truly appreciate producers, writers, directors and actors who invest their time and energies into projects which are not likely to be commercial hits. Also, the team of Dar Si Jati Hei Sila promised that this play will also show a way out to all the Silas out there therefore that will be the biggest reason for tuning into this show from now on.
