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 Udaari

Udaari episode 1 Review

The first episode of Hum Tv’s new Sunday night offering Udaari reads like a brightly colored map of Pakistani society today. The divisions of class and wealth are amply illustrated but so are the small intersections, the blending and blurring of lines by everyday human interactions; lives running parallel,...

Hum TV Mann Mayal

Mann Mayal- Episode 10 & 11 Review

With everything that we’ve seen so far, the lack of consistency in Mann Mayal happens to top my list of things that annoy me. I can’t understand if Mannu’s family is conservative or confused- and I can’t blame Mannu for feeling torn between these two extremes. These people declared...

ARY Dillagi

Dillagi Episode 5 Review

What a surprising episode! I have called Anmol’s character ‘dabang’ and this episode is proof that Anmol is the new Salman Khan! Courageous, bold, decisive actions and nerves of steel are usually reserved for males in our culture. Seeing a woman do what Men are routinely applauded for was both exhilarating...

Dillagi Episode 3 &4 Review

First of all, my apologies for both being out of the loop generally and missing last week’s review. I am still travelling but watching this week’s episode of Dillagi mad me feel bad enough for poor Mohid to open up the laptop and get typing. That’s right, I actually feel a little sorry for Mohid. The...

Gul-E-Rana...Last Episode

The last episode went onair tonight and as is becoming Hum TV’s bad habit, they dragged the story for as long as they possibly could, wasted screen time with repetitive scenes and then ended it abruptly. The end felt rushed, it was the last episode, they tried to show Adeel’s transition,...

Gul-e-Rana Hum TV

Gul-E-Rana...Episode 20

As always Feroz and Sajjal were impressive as Adeel and GR. Throughout these 20 weeks, no matter how bad things got, their performances and chemistry was the most important aspect of this drama. So now Adeel is completely dependent on others to fulfill his needs and that makes GR indispensable. The point...

Tum Kaun Piya episode review

Penned down by Maha Malik directed by Yasir Nawaz and stars Imran Abbas, Ayeza Khan, Ali Abbas, Qavi Khan and Hina Bayat among others. It’s a novel based drama and knowing the story I still give it a shot because of Imran Abbas. He was phenomenal in MNHY. Ayeza Khan is making her comeback after two whole...

Gul-e-Rana Hum TV

Gul-E-Rana...Episode 18, 19

Once again really sorry for the late review, I am trying to be on time, hopefully from next week, my reviews won’t be late. Where to start ? Finally when GR was getting her life back on track, when everyone was able to see what a creep Adeel really is, pata nahi kis ki nazar laggi GR k sakoon aur...

Hum TV Mann Mayal

Mann Mayal- Episode 9 Review

Kooki’s slurs weren’t effective in shaming Salahuddin and seeing the wasted state of Ifty’s father, he begged to stay. Kooki seized the opportunity to regain control of the household and demanded that Salahuddin would be working around the clock- during the day at the office and after...

Bheegi Palkein Review: Episode 15 to 18

Bheegi Palkein is our guilty pleasure as we return week after week in anticipation of the destruction of the tallest ‘ samaj ki deewar’ that separates Hasan and Mehrbano. However, in many ways the last few episodes have taken the pleasure out due to some unsavory events in the story-line. This drama...
