How Neelofar Romanticises Male Self-Absorption

It took me a while to muster the energy to watch Neelofar, and even longer to write about it because, much like the film itself, my thoughts lacked clarity. I didn’t enjoy it but I could not pinpoint why. The poetry, music, cinematography, nostalgia and animated transitions meant to evoke

Movie Review :JOSH

To begin with let me admit I was not expecting much of this movie at all, in fact my expectations were so low they slipped over the line to “prejudiced against “this movie. I am a fan of Amina Shaikh but somehow I felt she let the recent tele film Armaan down and so I thought here we go: another ’attempt’....

Behadd - Telefilm

When the promos for Behadd first came out, I was seriously intrigued by it. It’s been a while since a good drama has come out, but behadd looked like a different story overall, and it was just really fun to watch. The hour and a half was time well spent as far as the telefilm went. The story is...

Armaan 2013-Telefilm Review

The problem with remakes is that they are never quite good enough . It’s like your mother’s cooking , she may have been the worst cook in the world but eating her food made you feel good . I deliberately avoided watching the original to see if this tele film could stand on its own , after...

Telefilm: Anjuman 2013 Review

The magic of cinema is making the audience empathise with the character, no matter how unique the circumstances.If you can reach this level, you have made a great movie.

Devar Bhabi - Review

I was expecting this telefilm to be very filmi because it has been written, directed and produced by Syed Noor. I have never watched a Pakistani commercial movie so I had no idea what kind of an actress Saima was but I assumed she would be great since she ruled over the industry for a very long time;...

Telefilm: Abhi To Mein Jawaan Hoon - A Review

I have been really sick for past few days and I received a call from one my best friends whose advise of getting over a fever is to make yourself feel better and smile all day. How do you do that?
