Faraar 10: Murder, Matrimony and More Characters

Faraar drama has a lot going for it: layered characters, moments of dark humor, and a relentless pace that keeps you hooked. But at the same time, it’s teetering on the edge of overstuffed chaos. The growing cast and crisscrossing plotlines risk overwhelming the story, yet somehow, the absurdity is

HUMSAFAR WATCH PARTY : Episode4

Sara seemed so sweet and simple in the opening scenes of this episode that I actually understood how she had been so close to Asher all these years. It was nice to see these old friends trying hard to maintain their life long bond of friendship despite the complication life had just thrown at them. I...

Shuk Episide 5 Review

Shak continues to engage with its well balanced, fast paced narrative. This episode introduces Zara, ‘Sham’s sister with a presumably special needs child, precipitating Ammi’s exit, a runway Rumi and insights into Ali’s character. I really appreciate the fact that this drama touches, however fleetingly...

HUMSAFAR WATCH PARTY : Episode3

This had to be one of the most emotional episodes in the serial with a whirlwind of events packed into it , yet the pacing was so even that despite the air of urgency created, it did not look forced. Again it was Khirad I felt the most for, not only is she losing her mother but facing marriage to...

Snooze fest Karachi

Impressed by Sabiha Sumar’s earlier film Khamosh Pani with its strong script and poignant take on Pakistani politics, although admittedly sometime sketchy direction, I was intrigued enough to want to see Good Morning Karachi at the 3rdi film festival despite its rather predictable plot. Intrigued enough,...

Of all the gaalis in all the world, she walks into mine. That’s probably what ‘Sham is thinking as Seher begins to get more involved in Sania’s life. Seher true to form marches back to Sania’s to apologize for ‘Sham’s interference and convinces her to take a breather and a midnight stroll. Sania and...

HUMSAFAR WATCH PARTY : Episode2

It would be so easy to hate Sara: spluttering about ‘standards” in her precariously high heels as she watches the love of her life repeatedly assure her that he has about the same level of affection for her as he has for his friend Raza or say the office cat. However, I could never totally despise her....
