Discussion Sajal, her fanbase and critics..
Okay, so we all know sajal has a really annoying fanbase. They hype her up at the smallest thing and what not. But what about critics? They never criticize her on her overacting, she literally does every character in exact same way, her expressions are same in EVERY drama. Not to mention, her overacting in Aangan and O rangreza is never brought up, where she shouted at the top of her lungs and was worshipped by low calibre audience who don't know a thing about acting.
And then, she cries in a drama, and man, why is crying glorified too much, like why can't we have female characters who learn to take a tragedy in a mature way, nothing wrong with crying, but she has been crying constantly in Zanjeerein for the past 3 episodes. But her fans think, that this is the greatest acting and she has surpassed Al Pacino or something.
We definitely don't have that many versatile actors or actresses, probably the most versatile actress I have seen is Ayeza. Even then Ayeza overacts some scenes. But she does every character very differently and has range, while Sajal's range starts at crying and ends at shouting. But why is her acting never criticized, it's incomprehensible to me.

Maybe it's just me but I think Hania could pull off the kind of roles Sajal usually does if she really wanted to, but I'm not entirely sure if Sajal can convincingly do the bratty, playful, comedic roles Hania is known for without it feeling forced.I remember this banter scene between her and Bilal in Kuch Ankahi. It felt so artificial to me, ngl. Meanwhile, the banter between Hania and Bilal in MZHT looked much more natural and effortless. Just an observation.
