Bas Tera Saath Ho Reinvents Desi Cinderfella

ARY’s new drama serial Bas Tera Saath Ho turns the damsel-in-distress trope on its head. Farhan Saeed plays Anas, an oppressed orphan who dutifully obeys his wealthy uncle and aunt, with only his ailing grandfather seemingly offering any real sympathy. In true Cinderfella fashion, Anas has been reduced to a

Bilqees Kaur - Episode 2
Can I just say how impressed I am with Bilqees Kaur? After the fantastic opening, I, like many others, had wondered if the first episode had flattered to deceive; but I am happy to report that I have been proven wrong. Adnan Ahmed and Faiza Iftikhar have navigated carefully through choppy waters, particularly...

Mera Saeein 2- Episode 2
The second episode of this series most definitely kept me enthralled just as much as the first one had. The mere fact that everything is being kept in order and no story has just thrust itself in the ongoing serial of Mera Saeein is proof that Season 2 was well thought out. This episode was kept on mainly...

Wah! Saima Chaudhry ji, the young at heart designer from Faisalabad, kya baat hai aap ki! Once you set your sights on a goal then nothing can faze you – be it the setting up of your fashion house, or the launch of your designer lawn, or getting that young twit of a second wife out of your husband’s life....

Durre Shehwar - Episode 7
According to a well-known adage marriages are made in heaven; however, as Durre Shehwar ably demonstrates, this is certainly not true of our desi set-up. Here a vast majority of our marriages are arranged, formalized, and later messed up by the well-intentioned families of the couple involved. Today...

Mataa-e Jaan - Episode 8
I have to hand it to Mehreen Jabbar, Farhat Ishtiaq, and the rest of the Mataa-e Jaan team. This drama just keeps getting better and better. I have been raving about this serial for the past few weeks now, but I have to say his week’s episode surprised even me. Not because it was good, that was a given...

Sanjha - Episode 23
Ever since Sanjha moved out of Mumtaz’s kothi-khana to the Seth’s palatial house, it is as if the story took a wrong turn and has since been going around in circles trying to find its way home– whether it succeeds in this quest remains to be seen. For now we are watching a very confused Weeda and an...

Annie Ki Aayegi Baraat - Episode 2
This week’s episode continued to build on the momentum generated by last week’s fabulous start. Miserable though he was, Taka nonetheless kept his promise to “ladoo.”  He sat for his first paper and continued with preparations for the others. I do hope for his sake that the poor guy clears...

Bilqees Kaur - Episode 1
Watching Bushra Ansari as the flamboyant Saima Chaudhry on Saturday and then seeing her in the completely different avatar of Bilqees Kaur on Sunday, one can only marvel at the woman’s talent – what a brilliant performer she is! Bilqees Kaur opened on a very strong note. After a successful initial...

Mataa-e Jaan - Episode 7
Go ahead, call me delusional, off my rocker, or what you may please, but I am totally into Mataa-e Jaan. Whether others enjoy it or not, whether there is chemistry between the lead pair or not, whether the hero or heroine suit their roles or not, all these issues do not seem to bother me. Unlike its...

Humsafar: Let me Count The Ways ...
Today, while I was working on something totally unrelated and far removed from the drama world, my mind wandered and I ended up somehow thinking about Humsafar and it occured to me that it had been about forty days since it had ended, a kind of a chaleesvaan, if you will. So, as they say rasm-e duniya...
