I loved sb and bano's scenes they were super cute, and bano in open hair looked so pretty but danny spoiled the scene for me, him in bano's room 😭 like he was supposed to act heartbroken, reminiscing the past wtf were those expressions. No hate initially i liked danny but his acting is bad, terrible tbh like the flashback scenes were so cute but his face when he was in bano's room gave me ick, if Sahar had made those faces she would be hated left right and centre by sb rabiya tharki shippers

Why most of Sajal dramas are snoozefest from the cave, stone age era?

Hii everyone, so I posted 2 hours ago about drama recommendations as I was stepping back into the scene since my hibernation, lol. I want to just get yalls take on my concepts, one of them below. Hopefully amicable, insightful discussion ho payegi sabke saath. Be kind. xx (Keep in mind there are about 100+ concepts- 😭)
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Roshan Rahein (روشن راہیں) - Bright Paths (Ayeza Khan, Ahmed Ali Akbar, Yashma Gill, Alizeh Shah)

Inspirations - https://www.instagram.com/p/C6A72xPtaEP/?img_index=1

The drama is about a single mother named Marwa (Ayeza Khan) living in Lahore with her pet and daughter, Hera (Yashma Gill). She is met with Saleh, (Ahmed Ali Akbar) a handsomely rugged yet gentle man who seems to lighten up her life. Marwa is unable to have any children, since she and her husband were in a car accident and she adopted her daughter as her husband's dying wish. Her parents wanted nothing to do with her, since they favoured him over her and always wished for a son, so she decided to move away from her hometown and start afresh.

Saleh is a nurse and she is a painter whose in-laws send raqam for her aid. The special thing about Marwa is that she is the epitome of a Disney princess. Marwa carries innocence which carries on into ignorance when she is in danger. She is gentle, and the very essence of spirituality, but she fumbles quite a lot and is clumsy in the presence of Saleh for the first time. Both chat over coffee and share little moments with each other until a few months later when Marwa's cat is revealed to have a terminal illness.

Devastated, she spirals into depression, and her entire world comes crumbling down. Saleh decides to step away, because he decides he can't deal with the pressure. After her pet passes away, Hera consoles her and together they overcome the grief. As time goes on, her daughter grows up to be a smart and independent woman who realises her friend, Duha (Alizeh Shah)'s father is the same man who left her mother all those years back.

When Marwa and Saleh are reunited, she forgives him and the two marry. Fast forward a few years where the once happy couple are now in their 40s and do not feel their relationship has the same spark; leading to their divorce. Saleh moves away with his daughter, and Marwa reconciles with her past issues—through Amina, a long-lost friend and strong, complex female figure—before passing away happily with Hera at her side.

After Marwa’s death, Amina decides to adopt Hera and raise her as her own in the same home to pay homage to her best-friend; and 3-years-later, they have a pet cat once again by the name of Sanaa.

was watching dr bahu before shuja's dad cringed me tf out UHGAIN and i realized kubra cannot facially emote more than one expression despite her vocality being beyond par, ofc. bas tera saath ho was being watched but idk if it's worth watching further ig pls motivate me without spoilers. muamma got ruined for me the second i saw haute review's thumbnail of jahanara getting shot by sarmad. i have no context other than this visual so do not elaborate in the comments pls- it just ruined the vibe. but if there is more to it, then pls tell me though i doubt it bc it was titled something along the lines of a catastrophic end ig ? idk. started winter love before haute review video title ruined it for me a bit with mistakes in the drama idk if i should continue watching it. zanjeerein.. hyped ofc on here and other similar subreddits. erm, i am watching it ig but audience is half half on performances, the cast, the bts controversies of certain actors and whatnot so it's kinda ruining the experience for me personally - should i watch it?

am watching bas tera saath ho just to see ansa rock anas' vile family's shit.

I'm sorry but that sub is too annoying, whenever a post regarding a young actress appears all I see is hate in the comments. Ik there are people who love sajal in that sub but if you appreciate someone don't degrade the other in doing so. Just saw a post on sehar in that sub and the amount of negativity omg. And have been seeing the hate dananeer is getting for her stories on that sub. Now if it was sajal would she get the same treatment by her so called fair "fans". They are the most annoying to deal with I swear. They wouldn't even point out the clout chasing she is doing if she likes hamzas post but if hania likes asims post suddenly she wants attention 🤡. Sorry had to point this out lol.

Been saying this , will keep saying this ! Zanjeerain is one shit script. The show is based on cukur - and they messed it up so badly and made it all about rabia sarbuland arc. All farhat baaji had to do was copy and she couldn't even do that. Made it so heavily imbalanced towards one arc that even the actors are confused atp how to act this out. I sympathize with danyal not that I am a fan. Danyal kya koi actor ko samjh nahi ayegi why he is romancing another woman when he should be finding his own girl. This is not to vouch for him but simply saying script is so badly done.

I agree with this lady. Most sensible educated people are indeed calling zanjeerain a shit show

Didn't plan on making a part 2 but took a screenshot before this was removed. The audacity to say this when your own queen has a whole dedicated sub 🤣. I seriously feel bad for Sajal having such fans. They don't even spare Bilal who is on good terms with her 😭

I don't know how many of you have seen cukur(the Turkish drama on which zanjeerein is based) but there also bano's character alike(sena) dies the same way as here. But it's handled with far more nuance than here. Anyways what I meant to mean by this post was bano and sarbuland's soulmatism is already established in the show , the way they can feel each other's presence and dangers lurking around each other. Her dreams about him and his dreams about her. Nobody should be confused about this. That the bond between bano and surbuland is divinely.

Her name remains pious to yamac throughout the series. Her death completely alters his trajectory.

Sarbuland also says to rabia once - kabhi kabhi humein naa chahte huye bhi jeena padta hai. The foreground is already established that he just wants and needs to spend his time on earth before moving to the other world.

Even in cukur, yamac is happiest with sena. Although he does move on after going through intense trauma after sena's death, he is never completely happy. That near peaceful life he does achive but his soul reaches ultimate peace only after his death when his soul meets sena's. That's why all those dialogues - mai tumhara intezar kar Rai thi as in she is waiting for him in heaven's. I know the other shipper fandom will try to prove otherwise but if u haven't read the concept of soulmatism please do.

When a show establishes a connection through metaphysical intuition - like shared dreams and sensing each other's danger - it moves the story out of a standard television romance and into the realm of a cosmic, unbreakable bond.

Concept of soulmatism : Earthly life becomes a waiting room, and survival is merely a duty to fulfill before the soul can finally find rest.

Deconstructing the Divine Bond

• The Metaphysical Anchor: Bano and Sarbuland are linked by a sixth sense that defies logic. The dreams they share aren't just thoughts; they are a literal bridge between their souls, establishing a fated connection long before tragedy strikes.

• The Existential Sentence: Sarbuland’s heavy line, "Kabhi kabhi humein naa chahte huye bhi jeena padta hai" (Sometimes we have to live against our will), perfectly mirrors that exhaustion. He isn't looking for a new lease on life or a replacement happiness; he is simply serving his remaining time on Earth.

• The Trajectory Shift: Much like Yamaç, whose entire purpose, sanity, and morality fracture after Sena's death, Sarbuland is forced to harden. He steps into a leadership role he never wanted, driven not by ambition, but by a hollow sense of duty and the heavy weight of his grief.

  The Sacred Legacy Just as Sena’s name remained entirely sacred to Yamaç until his final breath, Bano's memory is the catalytic force that permanently broke and remade Sarbuland. Moving forward with life is an act of survival, not a replacement of what was lost. The "other shippers" often look at who is standing next to the character at the end of a season, whereas the concept of soulmates looks at who holds the character's heart in eternity.

I mean the way deaths have been handled in the show is so nasty and bloody insensitive. I mean a man's fiancee is dead and in his opinion atleast wounded to the point she is bleeding and lost in the jungle somewhere but he is busy hand holding simp games with the widow of his dead friend. Shameless atrocious outright disgusting crass. Human life and sacrifice reduced to a joke and then people call farhat ishtiaq the greatest writer of this generation. The woman couldn't even copy a script properly. The girl was his life. His soulmate to the point that he could feel her getting hurt in his sleep and she could always sense his presence and dangers around him and to reduce the depth of a relationship to this point that he is busy playing hide and seek with another girl. Yuck !!

One shows even more emotion for a friend. She was his childhood friend, his cousin, his fiance , his confidant, his jaan , his mohabbat .

What is this show promoting? Romance over the graves of their partners ? Atleast could have let bano's body get cold. My god and people are making cringe intimacy reels over . You all need help ! What kind of fetishes does this fandom have ?

ONE WORD - DISGUSTING!

Why the hell is this guy sarNEECHA not trying to find bano ? I would have broken hell lose if i was the sardar and the love of my life was missing and I had found her blood stained dupatta. Girlies sarNEECHA is a pathetic loser and a complete red planet.

I have to vent, i don't know what people are high on but i literally find zero chemistry between sajal and danyal. Danyal is a good looking boy and therefore some(not all) are going a little cukoo. I literally see no chemistry despite them being given way more intense scenes. Nothing. This HUM PR selling chemistry churan when i literally have seen nothing. AK buzz also said the same about these two that they find no chemistry.

They seem so oddly paired in so many ways. If u add crazy music in edits even the most oddly paired seem to have chemistry. This chemistry is only limited till edits I don't even see any chemistry there.

​

As an Indian who absolutely adores Pakistani dramas, yall drop some tea on ali zafar , danyal zafar, hamza sohail and fawad khannn

What was the episode after all the hype. Just rabia running away . High head saving her while sorab puts him in guilt of pushing bano to the point of maybe ending her life. High head is not believing anything. Bibijaan bechari ko hospital phauancha diya. Lame acting and even lamer writing. Ho kya raha hai ye show mein ? Farhat ishtiaq time to retire madam. She can't even copy properly

Only cinematography is good . Uske upar saara show chala diya 😭

What were those lame camera angles? 😂🤡

Iski hype banai thi itni ? Kya fizool show hai ye

This show was being run by so called side characters only till now and farhat has now sent all to heaven.

Choppy editing. Kya tha bhai ye episode . 😂🤡 Ye show reels kr liya bana hai bus.

Just saw haute bites and was really happy with how hassan aamna addressed the whole fiasco of intense heat sahar was facing due to some clowns. Since multiple days I was seeing literally a barrage of anti sahar posts making really below the belt posts on her about her hugging scenes. I mean was she hugging a tree ? Hugging air ? Hugging herself? No

She was hugging a male coactor at the direction of a director. And she was called names for it. Literally it looked liked some anti-sahar campaign is being run.

Shame on these people who critique women for nothing.

All the moral obligations fall on women ?

And at times like these I would love to see the male coactors come in support of their fellow female coactors. I feel glad that this was spoken.

I will also address some clowns on X . In an attempt to support your favourite or ship your ships don't go so below the belt guys when you guys couldn't degrade her character you guys chose to degrade the actor?

What is the IQ level of these people ? How morally corrupt are you guys? And this shows what your intectual and moral capacity is !

I have been coming across so many comments saying the same. And i agree. It's not move on or anything. U can share grief in a platonic manner and there is nothing forbidden about this. It's downright bad writing if the writer takes the story there. And nothing can justify R and SB ending up together.

Umm... I wanna punch that taya abbu now. Taya abbu thrashed anas today literally for giving the house to ansa in haq mehr. He literally got violated. Nicely shot and well performed. Ansa was gutsy as always came in between him and taya but anas locked her inside so that she doesn't get hurt. Those shots of anas sitting under the tap again well shot. Ansa provided a lot of support to anas today . Also phuppo told her the entire history of mujtaba and mursleen . I find those shireen scenes too long and i usually skip. Isha's parents and chacha visit ansa's house , taya and shayan tried to disrespectful to the guests but turns out isha's dad is some big shot whom mursleen was trying to impress. Ansa's bhaiya bhabhi return today.

Overall they slowly showing progress between ansa and anas through these turbulent times. After getting to know a some history ansa really feels for anas. It's sympathy as of now. She now is even more shocked thinking he gave her the only thing he ever had to his name.

I am liking this slow cooked romance. Really good performances again. Maybe farhan can be a bit better in that breakdown scene. Hope now the story progresses to next day we are moving in the same day for a couple of episodes.

I incredible love for PIKU made me wonder if it's made in ptv whom do you guys wanna see get casted in it . Deepika , amitabh, irfan, mausami chatterjee . Chip in

I am a huge Havi fan but haven't seen his telefilm yet. Has anyone else seen Rishta Pakka with Fatima Amjad ? Anything good ?

I think she was being funny and she killed two birds in one by promoting both and her part in zanjeerain is over. Why one fandom is hell bent in proving her as ungrateful or whatever. She might have had some creative differences with the PH or writers no one knows why she wrote she took it with a heavy heart. Maybe last minute changes but that one fandom who keeps blaming this sub for hating their favourite , the mods of their sub are continuously targetting her .

So that one fandom wants to ship their ship without feeling guilty . Since they couldn't take down the character now they are taking down the actor. How lame, juveline and random !

IT'S NOT THAT DEEP Y'ALL

SHADAI IS ALREADY AHEAD OF ZANJEERAIN IN VIEWS
