Sanam ep 5-6: We all have questions!

Ok why has it become so hard for writers to pen down a love story without portraying another woman as a raving lunatic who is nothing except plain evil? Why are mental disorders not addressed with some compassion? By the end of episode 5 Harib was surprised at the direction his marriage was going in because he was so positive and wanted to help Ayla … Continue reading Sanam ep 5-6: We all have questions!

It is penned by Asma Nabeel, who makes her writing debut with a powerful story such as this. Aisha Khan and Jibran Syed are the lead couple in the drama. … Continue reading Khuda Mera Bhi Hai raises questions no one has ever raised before

Sanam ~ episode 4 review

‘Harib’s habit of involving others in his problems…marwaye gi kisi din.’ Yes it’s hard to live with someone with a personality disorder but Harib is doing far from his best to handle the situation. Instead of trying to sit Ayla down and talk to her, convince her to see a doctor, he treats her phases like they are her fault and hopes they will pass … Continue reading Sanam ~ episode 4 review

Sanam ~ an overview

Three episodes have gone by and so far Sanam hasn’t moved beyond Ayla’s anger fits. My biggest peeve is Ayla’s negative portrayal even though it is obvious she is suffering from a personality disorder. I was (and still am) afraid Sanam will turn out to be yet another serial that depict the patient as the villain instead of making the audience realise that he/she needs … Continue reading Sanam ~ an overview

#Throwback to Actor in Law

With all the hype surrounding Actor in Law, I’m sure everyone would have watched it by now. If you haven’t though I only have one question to ask: Following Na Maloom Afraad’s legacy, Actor in Law poked fun at Pakistan’s media trends (bright karain anyone?) but has pulled politicians’ legs at every chance they got. Be it Dollar Girl’s tattoo or Bold News’…umm…honest journalism, the … Continue reading #Throwback to Actor in Law

ARY Digital, Besharam, Drama Reviews, Pakistan Entertainment, Pakistani Actors

Besharam – an overview

After a long time of staying away from my TV set, Besharam became the first serial I caught up with. I remember watching its promos before it started and thinking to myself, ‘looks interesting…I think I’ll watch it’. Thanks to a recommendation from a friend and a Twitter follower, I fulfilled my promise to myself. The drama is highly unrealistic but unlike Mann Mayal and … Continue reading Besharam – an overview
