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...

Accept the Slap but Censor the Hug: This is TV Outrage

In the world of social psychology, there is a concept known as the “threshold of tolerance.” It’s the invisible line that...

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

Durr-e-Shehwar Hum TV

Durre Shehwar - Episode 1

Yes!! Haissam Hussain is back – and how!! Durre Shehwar is a winner!! I totally, absolutely, unquestionably, loved the first episode, right from the stunning opening scene. Imbued as it was with a sense of utter calm and peace, that brilliantly shot sequence – the close up of hands with the prayer...

Hum TV Mataa-e-Jaan

Mataa-e Jaan - Episode 2

After last week’s ho-hum beginning, I didn’t exactly leave everything by the wayside to catch the latest going-ons in Haniya and Ibaad’s lives. But once I got around to watching it, I have to say this second episode was a huge improvement over the previous one. For one thing Samuel Huntington was thankfully...

Hum TV Sanjha

Sanjha - Episode 17

You’ve got to love the way Samira Fazal and Farooq Rind come together to tell a story. Sanjha is a complex story simply told, with characters so real you could run into them while walking through Bohri Bazar. Nothing is as straightforward as it seems. Nobody is pure as driven snow and neither is anyone...

Geo TV Mora Piya

Mora Piya - Episode 15

“Magar woh mera beta nahin hai!!!” At last the ugly truth was out!! The relief that Faisal felt at finally being able to tell the truth was palpable, but also evident was the immense pain and mental torture that he was going through. Adeel Hussein was brilliant today as the haunted Faisal. He had married...

Analyzing Humsafar - What made it a hit?

Humsafar is over – but it has left us with many things to write about which we, at least here on DramaPakistani.net, hope other producers/directors will note in order to improve the quality of drama serials that will hit our screens in the near and distant future. 1) A fresh lead pair With Fawad...

ARY Kuch Pyar Ka Pagalpan Bhi Tha

Kuch Pyar Ka Pagalpan - Ep 22

Compared to the past episodes, this week’s episode was much more introspective. Mellower than usual, each character seemed to be in a reflective mood. The episode opened with Mujtaba prepared to defend Kiran to all and sundry. Muju’s desi brand of chivalry was in sharp contrast to Shimraiz’s the-end-justifies-the-means...

Humsafar - The Finale

Whoa! Wow! OK! Where do I begin? How do I sum up the finale and not end up sounding like a blithering idiot?! Can I do it justice? I ran out of superlatives a while ago and now my thesaurus has given up on me as well…. So, bear with me and here we go ….. The uncharted safar we all embarked on way back...

Hum TV Mataa-e-Jaan

Mataa-e-Jaan - Episode 1

With over 25,000 fans on Facebook already and numerous video mixes on the main leads Haniya and Ibad, to say Mataa-e-Jaan was highly anticipated would be an understatement. However, interestingly, the response to the first episode, has not been so appreciative. Personally, after having the watched the...

Hum TV Sanjha

Sanjha - Episode 16

Mr. Weeda!! What a disaster you’ve created! First, you betrayed Sanjha’s trust, singlehandedly destroying her one chance to reunite with her sister. And, later, adding to the mess, your angry young hero type argument with Mumtaz pretty much put an end to Sanjha’s chances at ever getting out of this situation...

Geo TV Mora Piya

Mora Piya - Episode 14

“Agar mujhe tumhare saath rehte hue bhi akele hi rehna hai na … tau hum dono ko saath rehna hi nahin chahiye …Main yeh bati hui zindagi nahin guzaar sakti…” Powerful lines indeed!! Standing up for her child and herself, Ujala spelt out her decision to Faisal in no uncertain terms – she had had...
