Raqaas Has Some Terrible Parents

There are no slammed doors in Dilawar’s house. No loud music. No carefree laughter. Not even the simple pleasure of standing outside when it rains. Instead, everyone tiptoes. In Raqaas, Green TV’s latest exploration of honour, misogyny and domestic control, fear has become so thoroughly embedded in a family that

Adhura Milan Episode 1
Mohabbat aur waqt. Love and time. Amour et le temps. When I first saw the promos for Adhura Milan, I couldn’t help but be taken by the aesthetically pleasing production values (for the most part!), the stellar cast of older actors (Hello, Samina Peerzada!), the hauntingly beautiful piece of music...

Mere Humdum Mere Dost- Episode 4 Review
Slow and steady wins the race. That’s what I’m going with. The story keeps moving forward slowly albeit steadily and even though not much transpired today, it was still engaging nonetheless. I cannot deny the very obvious old man charm that’s dripping off Haider Masood. Add to that...

Muhabbat Subh ka Sitara Hai– Episode 22
‘Tis the season for silver linings. First here and now right here. Last week saw a rather grumpy Zeeshan resisting every kind word or gesture from Romaisa but this week given his family’s apathy to his condition and little more than a formal hazzri he realizes his position in their hierarchy of work,...

Pehchan Episode 4
At last, the silver lining in this dark cloud – humour in just the right doses. I love how each episode is the un- layering of another character. This one belonged to Qazi Wajid sahib. He is indeed the silver lining tinkling away with his fauji good humour. It also helps that these are great lines —Sasural...

Koi Nahi Apna - Episode 5
So logged into facebook prior to writing this and saw a status update on my newsfeed stating “teri do takkia de nukari mera lahkoon ka sawan jaey,“ (I honestly have no clue if that is a song, a saying, or what), but it does pretty much sum up today’s episode of  ‘Koi Nahi Apna.’...

Pyarey Afzal- Episode 23 Review
As exasperating as it was to wait a whole week for tonight’s episode, I’m relieved to report that there were no casualties! With two shots fired at point-blank range, I’ll attribute the sloppy shooting skills of our hit-man to a lack of cadet training- or divine intervention if you...

Bunty I Love You Episode 18
Khuda aapnay gunagaroon ko maaf kar daita hai lekin mohabbat apnay gunaygaroon ko kabhi maaf nahi karti. I knew last week was a one off episode that came together so perfectly that I had an inkling it won’t be too long till the train derailed from its tracks again. Okay, okay maybe I’m jumping...

Bashar Momin Episode 8
Jab bhi bolta hai zeher hi ugalta hai.  Right on point, Rudaba, right on point! Those of you familiar with the mechanics of our dramas whether filmi or not will concur with me when I say “Uff teri ada“! Bashar sahab I like the way you move, I like to see you move, and uff teri nazar it says...

Mere Humdum Mere Dost- Episode 3 Review
Episode 3 already and I have to say, the drama is beginning to grow on me. Why you ask? Well, for one, the direction has been spot on; the story seems to progress steadily without any hiccups. The scene with Aiman crying out- Mere saath hi kyun could have been over-dramatized but thankfully, the director...

Muhabbat Subh ka Sitara Hai– Episode 21
Hope you are all holding onto the tissues and/or glycerin because you will need one or the other. Zeeshan is recovering from his gunshot wound, while his family hovers around him for a good three weeks. Or in drama land three minutes. How thoughtful and kind of them to show up to show off their concern....
