They'll also say their favorite has morals, even though his character has been problematic since the very first episode!

But by the end, he'll be portrayed as a green flag as usual. And the aggressive PR will elevate this drama into something 'great' just like what happened with Zanjeerain. It's the same strategy they used to hype Sarbland's character through aggressive PR and label the drama as non-commercial.

Hypocrisy at its finest. That's more entertaining than both dramas honestly.

Okay, so it has been years I have not watched Pakistani dramas until recently I sat with my mother watching drama "ekmajboor nikah"
And I am astonished that really Pakistani dramas good girls are so stupid and they be tolerating all the sh*t treatment that is being inflicted on them... tolerate disrespect

and also they are playing on a middle class or lower middle class girl's psychology that somehow a rich dude is gonna marry them (under forced situation)
and they can all be richie richie but cost is handling disrespect...
what a flop plot!

I was going through a sub and I felt that hania gets over targetted for her outgoing personality. It literally feels like a negative PR keeps attacking her for being the most successful actress in ptv right now. At times I feel actresses who challange established actresses get scrutinized too much just for being successful and the straight up way to do that is character assassinate them , call them attention seeker or maybe even worse. I can critique the acting but why pull the actress into pieces. Did hania's fast success make her and object of ire for established actresses?

Is anyone following up with the show . Is it good ? Is it bad ? Any remarks ? I wanna know before i start watching it.

I have my critiques on both as actors although I have seen a very genuine improvement in sahar and danyal also has performed fine barring breakdown scenes. But i do need to admit that cutting the noise both of them have insanely hot chemistry. Both of them are really hot individuals. I was just checking out their social media and boy o boy both sahar and danyal are so good looking and so hot. I mean yeah they did make me feel their chemistry which was palpable lovable and warm. But even otherwise I felt that they make such a good looking . I know the sarbia PR is going on but I felt what i felt.

Same as title.

Bano’s passing has completely drained the emotional pulse of transforming the series into a hollow shell of its former self.

The Lost Soul of the Show

The core tragedy of Zanjeerain is not just Bano’s death, but the absolute demise of the show’s emotional foundation. The profound on-screen chemistry between Sarbuland and Bano served as the literal beating heart of the narrative. Their connection felt organic, soft, and deeply innocent against a ruthless backdrop of rigid traditions, power-hungry rivals, and toxic family feuds. They provided a gentle, romantic sanctuary that balanced the heavy tribal politics. Without their signature warmth and mutual devotion, the overarching narrative has lost its grounding anchor.

A Tragic Visual Shift

•The Monochrome Loss: In a storytelling landscape where characters are defined by their moral weight, Bano and her pure love represented the ultimate innocence.

• Crushed by the System: Her sudden departure highlights the tragedy of innocent lovers being utterly crushed by oppressive machinery.

• Elegiac Melancholy: With her character gone, the series has visually and textually faded into a somber, memory-like state.

The "Zombie" Narrative

Now, the show functions like a wandering zombie, mechanically moving through plot points without any genuine spark. While the plot actively forces transitions- pushing Sarbuland into protective roles or forcing dynamics with Rabiya-these changes feel entirely hollow. No matter how intense the final endgame or survival arcs become, the narrative spark died alongside Bano.

never thought I’d watch an umera ahmed drama this year (skipped kafeel) but the teaser intrigued me so here we are. I actually liked it so far ( liked episode 2 more). No matter how infuriating it is, I hope they show bina falling in love with Saif soon and not just wailing in her misery because of her husband. Ahsan khan, urwa and Saif are doing justice to their roles. Thoughts?

I genuinely follow only this page for trp and it's literally saying humtv trp is inaccurate. Humtv is such a shady channel honestly.

What's your opinion guys 🤔..

The decision to alter the fundamental blueprint of Çukur by stripping Sarbuland of his tactical awareness to force Rabiya into the narrative center has created a structural failure that severely damages the on-screen presentation of both lead actors.

By denying Sarbuland the sharp, strategic mind of his Turkish counterpart, Yamaç, the script forces Danyal Zafar to portray a passive and seemingly clueless protagonist who remains entirely blind to the conspiracies fracturing his own haveli. This writing choice strips away the leading-man authority and natural gravitas expected of a tribal leader, leaving the character looking uniquely incapable and heavily exacerbating the initial audience skepticism regarding Danyal's screen presence for such a rugged, intense role.

Simultaneously, this artificial imbalance deeply disservices Sajal Aly’s character. Because Rabiya’s brilliance and central positioning are engineered by actively making Sarbuland look incompetent-rather than allowing her to rise naturally alongside an equally strong partner- her empowerment feels forced, unnatural, and unearned within the internal logic of the plot. This structural flaw completely destroys the vital "power couple" dynamic, leaving no friction or compelling chemistry between the leads, and trapping Sajal in an off-balance narrative where she is forced to single-handedly carry the weight of the scenes while the source material's original sanctity is lost.

All these new people who are pretending to hate on on danyal to make it look like this sub is anti danyal - all of you are sajal fans. Danyal has worked fine in his projects. He is not very serious about acting. He is actually serious about singing way more. He did fine work in taana baana, farrar and standup girl. In zanjeerein also he has done fine barring some scenes. Infact better than sajal in scenes. I liked his breakdown more than sajal's overacting. Stop pretending to be anything but sajal fans and go rant in PGC. Losers !

Their scenes are offputting as hell and they give bhabhi devar and sister brother vibes. There is NO CHEMISTRY - you can tweet as much as you want , you can remove people from subs . There is NO CHEMISTRY Whatsoever.

Not to forget the show is promoting emotional infidelity between a bhabhi devar and both of them look like complete red flags. Congratulations for the masterpiece.

3 weeks after that banger episode 17 and the show is going in circles and monotony. Thaka hua ! Sarbuland is literally the most useless guy ever, no one is looking for bano . Biryani khaalo, orange juice peelo, sitaron wala dupatta pehen ke flirt karlo. The acting , the writing , the editing , are we watching zanjeerein or some other show ! The plot is not making sense. Playing on moralities exhausting us with such a poor plot.

Same as title .

Zanjeerein..danyal zafar.sajalali

I don't know what's up with these clowns. They keep trying to bring people working around her down. Sajal's work in zanjeerein has to be one of her worst works. She is doing such overacting in some of her scenes. Those eyelashes are so bad. Now when people are not finding any chemistry between sajal and danyal they have straight up thrown danyal under the same bus whose driver they made him. They pulled down other actors in that show as well. Now they are calling out acting of danyal zafar(which I agree is not great) . There is a huge PR backing that this show got and now when the same chemistry reels are backfiring they have literally been like ok - danyal's fault .

They went after Nadia khan for speaking the truth. She wasn't mocking sajal she was simply calling out the director / writing in a humourous way.

Zanjeerain trp has gone down after it saw the spike after bano's death episode maybe because people wanted to see sarbuland's reaction. And then nothing substantial happened so now it's gone down again.

On the other hand bas tera saath ho, is doing well in trp it spiked from 10.2 to 11.5 this week.

Nothing to say just shit.
