ARY Goya

Goya Episode 7 Review

From last week’s light heartedness to this week’s emotional wallop, Goya keeps mixing it up and that is a smart way to keep your audience hooked. Omar and Mohini are racing to their nikaah but not before some more partying and setting the stage for this motley crew to get together again. It was good...

Jackson Heights - Episode 15

With 9 episodes left Jackson Heights has finally picked up the pace to piece the puzzle together. Vasay Chaudhery and Mehreen Jabbar had the very difficult task of telling multiple stories that are intertwined with each other. These (very different) stories and the characters had to work together at...

Sadqay Tumharey- Episode 12 Review

Jisko beti kehrahi ho, kya wohh sach mein beti hai tumari??? How many times has this thought crossed our mind? Rasheeda is behaving like anything but a mother.

Goya Episode 6 Review

First things first, the most important lesson from this week’s episode : If there is a Conga line, you have to join. After all, who doesn’t want to join a Conga line? Though Ms. Uptight my-morals-are-in-a-twist Mohini might not want to. I get her middle class morality and indignation at Omar being in...

Sadqay Tumharey- Episode 11 Review

Jo tu Khalu se maang raha hai, wohh cheez tujhe Rabb se miljayegi. Love has the power to change people. Khalil is struggling with his volatile temper because he cannot make sense of Khala’s blatant rejection. I liked how he turned to namaaz to find some form of inner peace after that not-so-pleasant...

Jackson Heights Urdu1

Jackson Heights - Episode 13

Why are the men in this serial (with the exception of Rizwan) so full of themselves? You have Bhatti, who cares more about how ‘koi izzat nahi rahi meri us bachi ke saamne’ more than the fact Izzi didn’t come home the night before and her mother couldn’t care less. You have Jamshed,...

ARY Goya

Goya Episode 5 Review

You have to hand it to Team Goya for moving things along at a steady pace without sacrificing character development and thankfully, a sense of humour. Omar Hashmi is slowly standing up to his father’s diktats even though those around him warn him of the portending storm. Acchi tarah sooch lijiye they...
