Finally got around to watching this latest episode and I have to say Saima Chaudhry you’re still numero uno. Faree-D is good no doubt, but Hina Dilpazir has some ways to go before she can match Bushra Ansari’s seemingly effortless portrayal of our favorite designer from Faisalabad. Faree’s wailing, funny the first time, was seriously getting on my nerves this time around. Hasn’t she done this a few hundred times already? I was so glad when Rabia shushed her very firmly – high time somebody gave the lady from Birmingham a shut-up call.
Apart from my irritation with Faree-D, I enjoyed the latest chapter of this madcap caper. Bobby-D was his usual kewl self, his samosa rap not so much. Mikaal seems to have settled in well and is now busy charming the ladies of the household. Well, all except one, Annie. But it’s a case of the lady doth protest too much, methinks. Whether Mikaal is seriously interested in Annie or is just flirting with her, out of sheer habit, remains to be seen. The other couple, Laila and Vicky, is seemingly going nowhere. Laila gets hyper-excited every time she meets a good-looking guy, Mikaal this week, and Vicky just seems to be generally disinterested in this whole shaadi business. Perhaps, Laila’s phone call to Adeel will now shake him out of his stupor. And the better half of the third couple, Amma wadi, is still adamant about her visit to London. I don’t know why she hasn’t gone as yet, but I do hope her trip happens soon. I’m missing the old-world charm of Mr. Bhanji.
Speaking of missing, where are Sukhi and Taka?? My most fave jori has been MIA for the past few weeks. Could they be brought back from wherever they’ve been sent – we’re missing them!
The good news this week was the possibility that Azar might soon be off the jobless list. Whether he accepts this offer or turns it down, because of his ego, is a question-mark till next week. But it was good to see that at least his relationship with Sila hasn’t suffered too, too much, although there is still some resentment there. Ahsan Khan is very good here in his very small, but meaningful role. And yes, I would like to see more of this pairing, Alishba and Ahsan, in future serials, they’re very cute together.
I don’t know how many noticed, but during his phone call with Shahrukh Khan, Javed Shaikh referring to himself as Javed rather than Faraz. Another blooper occurred when Mikaal listed Aina as a Waheed Murad starrer. This serial has been so well-done so far that to see two bloopers, that too in the same episode was a little surprising.
These issues aside, this was yet another fun-filled episode, which ended with Behroze Sabzwari’s unexpected appearance. Is he an old flame of Rabia’s? How will Faraz react? Way to stir the pot guys!
Waiting to see what happens next!
