Why is no one discussing Leader’s brutal take on revolution?

I admit I came late to political thriller Leader. It’s not packed with big-name stars or viral reels. But this heartbreaking...

Could Begin Watch become Pakistan’s answer to Netflix?

Begin Watch positions itself as Pakistan’s premium Netflix alternative, but can it justify its higher pricing in a market dominated by low-cost streaming rivals? The streaming platform is building its identity around a mix of original productions, curated classics, and international entertainment, positioning itself as a unified viewing space for

Hum TV Roshan Sitara

Roshan Sitara Episode 1 Review

So,the story turned out to be kinda different than what I was expecting.The story of Roshan Ara ( Sanam Baloch) who is engaged with her cousin, Mansoor ( Affan Waheed). Mansoor and Roshan are in love with each other. Roshan’s mother ( Samina Peerzada) isn’t happy about her daughter’s...

Bilqees Kaur Hum TV

Bilqees Kaur - Episode 5

Bilqees Kaur just keeps getting stronger with every episode. I keep waiting for the serial to falter somewhere along the line, but so far I’ve been proven wrong. I am really enjoying the way the story is being narrated and the ease with which the various tracks are gelling together. Today, we went from...

Hum TV Mataa-e-Jaan

Mataa-e Jaan - Episode 11

So, here’s the deal … every week I post a review of Mataa-e Jaan and every week the review/episode is ripped to shreds – it is a given by now, standard operating procedure if you will… and frankly speaking, I’m totally fine with it. Since, for me, it’s still one of the better serials around. I don’t...

Hum TV Zard Mausam

Zard Mausam Episode 2

The second episode of this serial was in a way kind of disappointing, but at the same time, satisfying. Weird combination, I know. One of the two reasons why this episode was disappointing was because this episode did not move on too much. It’s understandable that it’s the second episode,...

Express TV Sirat e Mustaqeem

Sirat E Mustaqeem Episode 1 Review

The 1st episode of Sirat-e-Mustaqeem surely was very interesting. Mustaqeem (Sami Khan) is shown as a very carefree and “Awaara” person. Even though his father (Firdous Jamal) is a very religious and strict person and tries to stop him, he always does what he wants. Mustaqeem’s mother loves him very...

Hum TV Yahan Pyar Nahi Hai

Yahan Pyar Nahi Hai - Episode 2

We are now into second episode of the drama and I would describe the current pace of the drama as: na doob raha hai na ubhar raha hai. I am hoping it’s not one of those dramas that take 10 episodes for the real story to begin. Today’s episode was character driven rather than narrative driven settling...

Hum TV Maseeha

Maseeha - Episode 1

Now, what I don’t like is when my first impression of a play compels me to be over-critical, I honestly feel it is unfair to discredit or disapprove a play based only on one episode. But what do you do when you find most of the things over-exaggerated and flawed…to be honest or not to be honest, that...

Umera Ahmed : A pen picture

Ok! Here comes umera Ahmed the writer who shares my entire name with an extra “A”. This was not a very tricky one predictably since she has written so much that it is very easy to decipher her writings in to her personality. One important thing this is just an insight in to an interesting philanthropic...

Bilqees Kaur Hum TV

Bilqees Kaur - Episode 4

Now that we are at episode 4 of Bilqees Kaur, the story has started to make its presence felt. Initially, I was watching it primarily for Bushra Ansari and her fabulous portrayal of Bilqees, but now that the other characters are becoming familiar, and we have a little bit more insight into their mindset,...

ARY Mera Saeein

Mera Saaein 2 - Episode 4

After the not-so-great episode, as DB put it, last week, this week’s episode most definitely paid off. The story moved on subtly yet sharply to a point where I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. Firstly, we started by witnessing a lot of sweet talking between Shazmeen and...
