Dr Bahu: A Perfect Life of Polite Patriarchy

I expected Mehreen Jabbar’s Dr Bahu to examine the marriage market demand for a daughter-in-law who is a medical doctor, but I had no idea the drama would also become an inside look at the insidious way coercive control operates within seemingly “modern” households. Through Dr Sania’s eyes, we see

TRPs :Mediocrity Reigns
In next week’s radio show we will be talking about what makes a hit drama. Some of you maybe laboring under the innocent assumption that it is a good story, a strong director or maybe even great acting, but you are wrong. For Television Channels what really makes a hit are TRPs or television rating points....

Bashar Momin Episode 2
Theatrics. This word sums up Bashar Momin and we’re only on the second episode. I could start by listing everything that’s bad and perhaps do the same for everything that’s good. If that’s what you’re looking for I suggest you go somewhere else. Kyun? Well, for starters,...

Muhabbat Subh ka Sitara Hai– Episode 15
    You’ve got to hand it to the team at MSKSH they are doing such a consistent job being static that whether you started watching from the get go or five episodes ago, things are moving at the pace of a snail taking part in a sleep-walkathon. It takes commitment to be that sluggish. So no...

Pyarey Afzal- Episode 16 Review
Now this episode totally ruined it for me. After last week’s fast-paced, mercury riser, my expectations were impossibly high but I guess they just couldn’t top that! Either the writer dozed off and lost track of the storyline or just lost interest altogether, I couldn’t make sense of...

HUMSAFAR WATCH PARTY : Episode 19
   This episode seemed like a race to a climax. The web that Farida had woven around Asher was well and truly unraveling and funnily enough not due to any effort on Khirad’s part. I remember thinking how stupid Farida was ,because if the ultimate goal had been to marry Asher off to Sara ,well how...

Bunty I Love You Episode 11
One tight slap! I don’t know about you but I’ve been waiting for this. Bunty kitna baccha hai par baat to wohi hai na ki Dania ko bacchay say mohabbat ho gayee hai. As many of you have wondered what Dania sees in Bunty, this week, I ask the same question. I hope they tell us soon because...

Bashar Momin Episode 1
Talk about an entry! Boy oh boy! Faysal Quraishi certainly knows how to make one. But I’m jumping ahead of myself. For a drama that’s been hyped beyond measure the first episode was rather mellow and (as much as I hate to say it) a bit flat, but flat isn’t necessarily bad. Our story...

Shuk Episode 22 Review
  Yay! Shamim Hilali is back! Only five episodes too late. Boo! Little did she know that she was walking into this muck of being up Shukk creek without a paddle. The jousting of the two wives continues with phantom intruders and faked injuries thrown in with jostling for naasta, chai and coffees....

Muhabbat Subh ka Sitara Hai– Episode 14
    Turns out that Rabia is the one showing folks the light. Who would have thunk it? She’s actually turning into a thinking person who, for a change, speaks her mind and is at least is trying to do the right thing. While the rest of the khaandani folks play Chinese whispers and are bellowing...

Bashar Momin Preview
In less than three days we’ll finally get to see Bashar Momin! Much has been speculated about this series – big budget, grand scale, great production values, a dapper leading man, and above all it’s export to Indian shores and television sets (and believe me we need a good story on...
