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

Qaed E Tanhai Episode 15 Review
Let me summarize episode 15 for you:  Furhan (Zorain Nizamani) and Noor (Neelam Muneer) become friends, and we find out that nobody knows when Ayesha’s (Sawera Nadeem) birthday is. And that’s all that happens. This drama is so slow! Just get to the point already! What did Ayesha do? Can we please find...

Mein Abdul Qadir hoon Episode 9
Oh, Abdul Qadir! You really need to just sit for a minute, relax, and sort your life out. This episode was a bit slow in my opinion, but it was great nonetheless. The fact that it portrays the stories of Zareen, AQ and Nael side-by-side really helps to keep balance. But then again, the director is Baber...

Dramapakistani 2010 Review
The year 2010 saw some of the saddest dramas in Pakistan history… most of the best dramas that were aired this year were sad or had tragic endings. It may be that writers find it to be empowering to know that the viewer has shed some tears and that it has impacted their state of mind. The 4 dramas that...

Qaed E Tanhai Episode 8 Review
So this drama isn’t really living up to my standards. We know what Umera Ahmed’s writing skills combined with Baber Javed’s directing can do, having seen it in MeriZaat, but unfortunately, it’s not really standing out in QET. No extraordinary dialogue, no incredible acting, nothing. One thing that I’m...

Mera Saeein Episode 5 Review
  Nothing much to be said about Episode 5 in comparison to the first 4.Sunita’s acting has definitely picked up in this episode. Her performance is the only highlight of this episode. I like how she treated Malik Shahab. A liberated woman talking back to a rich spoilt zameendar playboy is always...

Mera Saaein Review (Episode 1-4)
Intense drama with a fast pace – I like it. The story covers a variety of issues and has been beautifully layered and has shown cohesiveness at least in the first 4 episodes. The benefit that this drama has which others sometime lack is a great cast. The line- up is brilliant, Noman Eijaz, Savera Nadeem,...

Mein Abdul Qadir Hoon Review(Episode 1)
I like this Abdul Qadir guy; there is nothing not to like about him. He likes Harry Potter for crying out loud :) I’ll be honest. There was no magic in the first episode that would make me want to watch the next episode. The attraction just wasn’t there. Basic storyline: Rich woman, Meera (Saba Hameed)...

Qaid E Tanhai Episode 7 Review
So I’ll start by admitting that Qaid-E-Tanhai didn’t really catch my eye the first time I saw an ad for it. It seemed to me like another cry baby drama. Then I learned that it was written by Umera Ahmed, so I decided to give it a chance. Unfortunately, even after watching the first episode, I didn’t...

Dastaan Episode 22 Review
Episode 22 of Dastaan embodies today’s Pakistan’s conditions that were marked out by the people like Bano (Sanam Baloch) earlier at that time. The difference of ideologies between the people who sacrificed their lives for Pakistan and the one’s who enjoy it’s free air was well revealed. It highlighted...
