Durr-e-Shehwar Hum TV

Durre-Shahwar - First Look

OK, I must admit that my initial excitement about Durre-Shehwar received a rather huge blow when I saw the promos this morning. Until yesterday, I was totally excited about: 1) The original script of Umera Ahmed (I remembered Daam and my level of expectations went up several notches) 2) Direction by...

Hum TV Sanjha

Sanjha - Episode 15

“Acchi lagti hai woh mujhe!” With this unthinking declaration of affection, Dr. Ammar might just have sealed Sanjha’s fate as yet another girl destined to spend her life as a dancer, a non-entity, lost somewhere in the bowels of the big city. Illustrating that jealousy knows no boundaries, Weeda...

Nadamat - Episodes 2 to 8

OK, I must admit my initial enthusiasm for Nadamat – after viewing the first episode – extinguished to a large extent in the subsequent few episodes. However, after seeing the production team marketing the serial on Facebook, I thought I should write something by way of feedback and point...

An open, honest letter to A&B Productions

To Mr. Asif Raza Mir and Mr. Babar Javed! I generally give a lot of credit to A&B Productions for producing drama serials based on novels and thus, encouraging viewers like me to go back and read the novels. I also appreciate the fact that A&B have made issue-based drama serials, focusing on...

Geo TV Mora Piya

Mora Piya - Episode 13

How could Faisal smile and happily pose for family pictures when he knows the baby, that Ujala was cuddling ever so lovingly, is not his? Far from being a symbol of their love, this baby is in fact a harsh reminder of a brutal act that can never be forgotten by either of them. So how do they move forward...

Hum TV Mataa-e-Jaan

Mataa-e-Jaan - First Look

OK, let me state this out-and-out: when you read Mehreen Jabbar, Farhat Ishtiaq, Adeel Hussain, and Sarwat Gillani all associated with ONE drama serial, the only thing that comes in your mind is: MUST WATCH! Yes, even after the disaster that Neeyat was (and mind you, that was only because the script...

A viewer's complaint to ARY

Alright, just so it is clear, I am very angry, no, actually, infuriated at the callous manner with which we the viewers have been treated by those in charge of programming at ARY Digital TV. I am beyond mad at the unannounced cancellation of two recent episodes of Kuch Pyar ka Pagalpan. Didn’t...

Geo TV's latest drama serials - a critique

Between work, when I want to take a break, my favourite past time is to log onto the website of different TV channels (read, ARY, HUM and GEO) and read through the plot outlines of the drama serials, pore over related blog entries, and watch new promos. I do this in the hope of catching anything interesting...

Hum TV Maat

Maat - Episode 24

Let me start this review by commending ALL those viewers of Maat, who took time out to visit Umera Ahmed’s official page on Facebook, and register their protest at the way the characters have been portrayed in this popular-but-loser serial. I have heard that the admin deletes posts that are negative...

ARY

Shadi Mubarak - Episode 5

OK, I am officially disgusted. Do sons-in-law show extreme nakhras only because their mothers put them up to it? I do know that most of the sons are told “Susraal walon ko sar par mat bithana” and “Aagay tumhari marzi!” And almost every son is told off after marriage that he gives...
