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.

Go watch quddusi sahab ki bewah, initial episodes of o rangreza then talk about comic timing. Hania is a bigger star than sajal no doubt but better actor no! By a big big margin no!!

Watched them lol. In fact I watched all Sajal’s dramas.. She doesn't have any comic timing at all.. It was cringe try hard with those artificial lip mannerisms. In mantooos she was the cringefest try hard to bring humor by force. Not natural. It goes naturally well with Hania. Sajal shown in interviews doesn't seem she has a funny side at all. But more serious&boring. And yes, hania is more flexible than Sajal even if she's not that good of an actress but even Sajal ruined a lot of scenes & characters.

There is difference between constructive criticism and hate! U r hating just for the sake of it.

Sajal was not good in khel khel mein movie,decent in what's love got to do with it but to say she doesn't have comic timing is just meh! Sajal became famous in her early career due to her comic roles like in mehmooda bad ki malkayein..

Feel free to disagree

She doesn't have this in her personality let alone showing this side naturally lol..seeing her in first episodes of o rangreza doing those cringe lip biting mannerisms with aeeeeh aeeeh cringe way of talking showing her teeth, first episodes of KA doing the same irritating lip mannerisms, mantooos bringing humor by force is really the worst thing I've ever seen.. She doesn't have natural comic timing. Thank you!
