Saima Chaudhry is so awesomely funny! I was in fits as I watched her throw a hissy fit at Chaudhry Sahab for daring to invite his sister from Birmingham to visit them in Pakistan, never mind the fact that the poor guy probably had no say in the matter from that end either. Bechare Chaudhry Sahab! Now that the “shehsawar” Faree-D is here, he’s gonna get it from both sides. Can’t wait to see how Brother Bhaijaan keeps his brain and ears intact when both ladies get going – full on tamasha shuru!
The brief glimpse of Faree-D, Hina Dilpazeer with her spot-on accent, and her son Bobby-D, the rapper (leather gloves in the Karachi heat – was he serious??), has whetted my appetite for more. Hina Dilpazeer is such a talented actress and I am curious to see how Faree-D handles Saima Chaudhry. Looking forward to the clash of titans next week!
For a while now, many of us have been hankering for a light-hearted romantic drama, and here we have not one, not two, but three full-fledged romances just about ready to take flight. The yet-to-bloom romance between Mikaal and Annie is cute to watch and has me waiting for more. Shehzad Shaikh is yet to impress me, but his interactions with Navin Waqar do have me aww-ing. Apart from the Annie-Mikaal story, we have the superbly done Naani-Bhanji budding romance. It was funny to see her reading War Games, when Bhanji came to say goodbye. Why do I get the feeling that Naani will somehow convince herself to convince Mr. Bhanji to change his plans … what do you guys think? And the third love story is between the two friends who are yet to figure out that they are already so much more than friends – Vicky and Laila. Although Dareecha turned me off this pairing so bad, that I couldn’t stand them in the first couple of episodes, but now they are slowly and gradually growing on me. I must say that I wish that our actors would realize that much as we like them, we do not want to see them in every play, every day on our screens; case in point, Sana Askari. I had really liked her in the earlier Baraats, but now that she’s seemingly present everywhere, I do not care much for her at all.
So yes,this was another highly entertaining episode – looking forward to the fireworks next Saturday!
