An appreciation thread for
#PakistaniDrama
OSTs which are a great representation of the musical talent in the country. Whether the drama is great, good, mediocre or downright terrible, these OSTs have left us with memorable music that I continue to listen to.

@ask_aubry
……….theres definitely another option. Just seems like single dad of the year doesn’t want to give up his own privacy but expects his female teen to share her bedroom with a teenage boy her age who has a crush on her. I hope she moved out. 🙄😒
This is why Sunita Marshall is and always has been a stellar personality. She respects her husband, her in-laws, her family and…..herself. What a great response and this man should be ashamed of himself.
“Jo Bichar Gaye” is a testament to how Pakistani television can be riveting & capable of delivering projects of an international standard. This week’s episode left us with a haunted feeling, as we witnessed Rumi’s turmoil.

Decades ago, Raj Kapoor invested all his time, effort and finances into “Mera Naam Joker.” Despite being a masterpiece, it flopped and was only recognized for its brilliance years later.

“People will start rising in love instead of falling in love.” I have a degree in literature & teach ELA in elementary school in the US where I’ve grown up. Nothing wrong with this grammatically or otherwise. You like making fun of your own for kicks?

#PakistaniDramas
Wow.
#Brahmastra
is an incredible movie, both visually & concept-wise. Wish I had been able to watch it in theaters. First time I’ve watched a movie at home without picking up my phone in years. I cannot WAIT for part 2…..whenever that will be.
#BrahmastraOnHotstar
#Bollywood
Have had this clip saved on my phone and have been repeat watching it for the last few days. 😂😂
#SeharKhan
and
#HamzaSohail
are SO good here. 😂
#fairytale
isn’t a perfect shows, lots of flaws, but these positives allow you to overlook the negatives.
#PakistaniDramas
The excitement for
#SangEMah
is on a different level. I was wondering if
#KubraKhan
was in the sequel, so seeing her here brought a smile to my face. What a stellar cast, beautiful cinematography, excellent director -
#PakistaniDramas
are headed for a great few months!
My name is Maheer and I’m the dumbest character on television. I cry, I lie, I’m self-righteous, I talk to my ex on the phone & play innocent and allow others to accuse my husband of cheating. What was Hania thinking with this character? SCUM.

#DJWaaleBabu
was my toddler’s first fave song (at 9 months), so I hold a special place in my heart for him. Such a cute, endearing interview. Great job
@NehaDhupia
and
@Saavn
!
He is 100% right. And said nothing wrong. Acknowledged the talent of the lead actors, but also acknowledged the 🗑️ that show is. He is a well-rounded actor who has made it on his own through his own hard work. He has a right to comment on the state of the industry.
One hour of
#Animal
left and….boy is it a ride. Despite the crazy length, haven’t been bored for a moment.
#RanbirKapoor
is introduced as “superstar Ranbir Kapoor.” Fitting. He has always been amazing as a performer, but this performance is insane.
#Bollywood
Maybe……Indian fans can appreciate
#Pasoori
as a Pakistani song written, sung, composed, produced by Pakistanis…..and just NOT try to claim a piece of the pie. Just show appreciation. We love Bollywood too. What the fudge is this article?!
#cokestudio14
The truth about
#MujhePyaarHuaTha
is it’s a
#WahajAli
show. No sympathy for Areeb & Maheer love story, cuz it was too quick, haphazard & poorly fleshed out. Areeb lost his love & his father in one night & still, I only feel for Saad. That should say something?
#PakistaniDramas
Late watch and had been planning to watch this for ages, but
#NagaChaitanya
and
#SaiPallavi
’s
#LoveStory
is an incredibly sweet film with great music. They share such beautiful chemistry, the greatest take-away being how important it is to be supportive as a partner. Loved it!
The power of
#NoorJahan
is she’s been the story’s villain for 31 episodes - and in the last episode, you cry for her, realizing her climb to success & respect was painful & everything she dished out….she was once on the receiving end.
#SabaHamid
, take a bow!
#PakistaniDramas
I watched
#Tamasha
in 2015 in theaters. Found it odd, but still liked it. Watched it again a few months later & liked it a lot. Just watched for the 3rd time after 4 years & am in awe of the sheer brilliance. It really is one you appreciate more with each viewing.
#Bollywood
The
#Fairytale
fandom hit the bullseye when they said Farjad is a green flag. No nonsense, straightforward, honest guy who knows where to draw the line, when to apologize and how to protect those he loves. Honestly,
#FarMeed
deserve so much more screen time.
#PakistaniDramas
I would like every individual to put themselves in Numair’s place. Green flag, green forest kuch nahin hota. Good people are allowed to get mad. We are all human beings. We have flaws. He is trying to be understanding - but be fair. He has married into a circus.
#Jafaa
People complaining about weak content in
#PakistaniDramas
, but not watching Kabli pulao, Jeevan Nagar, Nauroz, Jhok Sarkar, Jindo, Jannat Se Aagay, Idiot, 101 Talaqain, Shanaas, Yunhi, etc - you’re putting down Pak shows w/o acknowledging the positives & currently, there are MANY
Wahaj Ali is older than Ayeza Khan. And even if he were younger (which he’s not), they’re both beautiful, talented actors & it will be a treat to watch them on screen. Stop shaming women. Now let’s hope the story and direction are good.

Gangubai was a young 16 year old child picked up from an educated family and wound up in a brothel. There is no “maturity” required to play her. This is a story of young
#GangubaiKathiawadi
. While I was initially critical, after watching again,
#AliaBhatt
is doing a great job.
So
#RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahaani
is Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Ghum for gen Z and I’m actually here for it. Like K3G,
#RARKPK
is all about loving your parents - but if your parents deserve a verbal kick, give it to them. 😂👏🏼 It’s not a flawless film, but I wholeheartedly enjoyed it.
This song is in
#BhujThePrideOfIndia
, an anti-Pakistan film and yet, they’ve stolen
#ZaalimaCocaCola
, which is a PAKISTANI SONG. The hypocrisy level is high. I don’t play these India vs. Pakistan games but there’s something very much unethical here. 🙄🤦🏽♀️
@TausifRunning
People read these out of context captions and Vikrant Massey, who finally received hard-earned success, will soon be called “overrated” only because of these ridiculous headlines. 🙄😒
The Sarmad-Maha relationship is the best part of
#HumTum
. So nice to see two level-headed, kind-hearted characters coming together onscreen. Junaid Khan and Sarah Khan have always had great chemistry, but this time around, they have great characters to match.
#PakistaniDramas
What I love most about
#BadshahBegum
is that there isn’t any glorification. Shahzaib’s entry was audiences watching him murder a man.
#FarhanSaeed
creates a soft spot, but here, watching him humiliate his wife, we are reminded that Shahzaib is NOT a good person.
#PakistaniDramas
What I’m loving most about
#RRR
is how both
#RamCharan
and
#JrNTR
are getting their time to shine, neither overshadowed by the other. These are two stellar actors. Loving their bond! Lots of strong emotional moments and the music and background score is brilliant.
It’s not difficult to see why
#SajalAly
chose Shanaya. Shanaya is a blend of Momina (Alif) & Noor (Noor Ul Ain), a confident, determined, ambitious individual who holds religion & values close to her heart. This character is the soul of the show.
#IshqELaa
#PakistaniDramas
The real hero of
#JaaneJahan
today. 🤧👏🏼 Shehram desperately needed someone to step in for him and I’m so glad Zeenat’s character has not gone in a negative direction. Loving her role at present.
#PakistaniDramas
#MaryamNafees
I haven’t watched a daily ITV show in YEARS, but found myself watching
#BadeAchheLagteHain2
last night & binge-watched 8 episodes. It’s essentially the same story, but I’m enjoying it. Will I stick with it? Who knows? But I’m liking
@NakuulMehta
and
@disha11parmar
a lot! 🙌🏼
The best way to end a drama is not only ensure all loose ends are wrapped up, but to leave your audience smiling from ear to ear.
#ChaudhryAndSons
will be ranking high on my Best
#PakistaniDramas
of 2022 list. Comedy, tears, romance, depth, meaning - this one had it all. 👏🏼🙌🏼
The image of an actor is in his or her own hands. Respect your fans, but if you don’t give a much needed shut up call at the right time and allow disrespect towards your partner, co-stars or friends to get out of hand, you will gradually lose respect. Step up. Protect your own.
@Prashant_2525
She’s been making these kind of statements from the beginning though. She often talks about how she always shops at sales and is a cheapskate. It’s nothing new. people don’t like it, because she has money. But it is what it is.
“Dekhaoonga Amal ko ke aaj uske saamne Professor Hamayun nahin, Haider khada hai.”
👏🏼🥳 Finally, Haider and his “team” are ready to fight and this show is moving in a positive direction.
#Dunk
#PakistaniDramas
Can we take a moment to give
@ramshakofficial
a round of applause? Her performance has been consistently good, but this week it’s visible how Samiya is strong on the outside, but inwardly she is scarred by her past marriages - & that’s due to Ramsha’s acting.
#GhisiPitiMohabbat
Mental health should not be used for TRPs.
#AfsanaKhan
was in a bad space. Not only did Bigg Boss refuse to intervene until a knife was brought out, but the team used the entire thing for content, not giving a damn how it will affect her career. This is disturbing.
#BiggBoss15
The pregnancy was in the teasers. Aini & Faakhir are born out of child marriages. It’s a vicious cycle, a BLOW to Aini’s future - & that’s the point. The TREATMENT is the issue. Intimacy at a young age is huge. It needed to be handled sensitively. That’s the problem.
#MayiRi
Love recommending
#MahETamaam
with the current
#WahajAli
craze. One of Wahaj’s initial dramas, he was not only naturally charismatic, but his pairing with
#RamshaKhan
is one of my all-time favorites. Love Naveen & Emmad too. If you haven’t seen it, you should!
#PakistaniDramas
The 1st episode of
#IshqELaa
belongs to its ladies,
#SajalAly
&
#YumnaZaidi
, who slip into their roles as Shanaya & Azka with ease. The highlight is the relationship both girls share with their mothers. When women are supported, they can soar to great heights.
#PakistaniDramas
The way Sami reacted to all this speaks volumes of his character & class. Proud of him, but sad that one of our country’s best actors was treated this way on public television.
Those excusing it by likening it to Kapil Sharma, please see how Kapil treats his guests.
#SamiKhan
During a recent interview, Sami Khan was asked a series of offensive questions by the co-hosts, insinuating an "unsuccessful career" in Lollywood. The duo then went further to comment on the actor's skills, pay grade, and conflicts within the filming crews.
#SamiKhan
After yesterday’s episode, if anyone says
#AnkitGupta
is not participating in the show…..you’re not watching. I already liked him, but after Monday’s episode, I’m a fan. 🙌🏼
#BiggBoss16
“Be more like Mehreen.”
South Asian families/communities have a real problem - pitting children against each other. Mashal is a depiction of when those comparisons have an extreme effect on a child. Episode 8 of
#HumKahanKaySachayThay
belongs to
#KubraKhan
! 👏🏼
#PakistaniDramas
The genuine fondness
#AhmedAliAkbar
has for
#YumnaZaidi
is love. 😊 And those saying he uses her name for attention, he doesn’t need to. Their pair brought them both a lot of love & popularity. One of Pakistan’s best television pairs…& my fave Yumna pairing.
#PakiataniDramas
Yumna as an answer to any question was the cutest,
The way he was smiling when Ayaz said he'll dance from both of their sides while amna saying "Mai bhi"
The way he blushed when he said he's fine with rumor with yumna & that plz achi script with yumna💘
#YumnaZaidi
#AhmedAliAkbar
Yet again,
#TriptiDimri
proves she is criminally underrated in
#Bollywood
& deserves more! She is brilliant in
#Qala
as a singer struggling internally. It’s not an easy role to play & she nails it in a film carried by her from start to finish. Qala is a great film & a must watch!
My opinion on
#DhoopKiDeewar
is simple: It hasn't released yet, so I can't make a judgement on it. I trust Umera Ahmed, Sajal Aly, Ahad Raza Mir and the entire (incredibly talented) Pakistani team behind the show. So I am hoping for great things.
#PakistaniDramas
Unfortunately,
#SinfeAahan
is hanging on by a thin thread. The girls are fabulous performers, but scenes are stretched beyond reason and simply too focused on patriotism, which should be felt, not hammered with repetitive dialogues. Hopefully a STORY begins soon.
#PakistaniDramas
Who is responsible for this kachra decor? All the Pakistanis in DC and instead of hiring someone, the organizer went to Michael’s, bought some red kapra, plastic flowers, created a makeshift dholki backdrop and called it a day. For Pakistani STARS. How embarrassing! 🤦🏽♀️
Just got back from watching
#TuJhoothiMainMakkaar
. If you know what to expect - which is a Luv Ranjan film - , you will enjoy this. I laughed so much, cried in parts & LOVED
#RanbirKapoor
’s performance. And THE FAMILY = ❤️Very entertaining movie. Recommended.
#Bollywood
No quote tweeting, but if you're a 'life coach' who's on here implying people are losers if they aren't learning a new skill/building a brand while on lockdown, maybe stop. People have challenges you know nothing about. Sometimes getting through something is more than enough.
I love Babil so much. I love Wahaj and Yumna so much. I am so embarrassed that this is the representation Pakistani dramas are getting on this level. 🤣😭😞
After disappointing “big” shows this year, expectations were low for
#KuchAnkahi
. Fortunately, the 1st episode is a winner. Love, comedy, drama, fun rolled into one with a talented, beautiful cast…plus Mohammed Ahmed writing & Nadeem Baig directing. Great start!
#PakistaniDramas
@mrpford
@priyankachopra
All her acting credentials and awards aside, she is the producer of The White Tiger, which is nominated for an Oscar. 🤨 Just admit your misspeak and stop embarrassing yourself.
It’s the simplicity of
#ZardPattonKaBunn
which makes it lovable. This trio & their interactions are so realistically entertaining. This may not be an action-packed drama, but it’s hitting all the right notes & connecting to the audience on a personal level.
#PakistaniDramas
Not funny. At all. She showed humility and apologized for her comment on a serious topic within hours of it being highlighted. That’s taking ownership. This is just in poor taste. Stop with the cheap comedy.
#SeharKhan
Aadi Adeal Amjad and Naveed Raza recreate Sehar Khan's infamous interview making rounds on social media, following an apology from the actress.
#AadiAdealAmjad
#NaveedRaza
#SeharKhan
That’s a misinterpretation. This is on the interviewer for a terrible suggestion. Deepika isn’t putting her husband down. She said having an energetic, happy, “zest for life” brand ambassador for depression would make those going through it feel worse, not inspired. That’s it.
Pr perception created by his team vs what happens in reality
#RanveerSingh
They are trying to paint him as a Greenflag and to that
#DeepikaPadukone
responded by describing his behaviour as extremely dangerous and problematic
Whereas internet warriors buy the PR perception
Even if there were other actresses who may have visually looked more the part,
#SajalAly
's transformation is absolutely fabulous here and I have no doubt she will excel in this role. She is a dedicated, committed actress.
#PakistaniDramas
People have their opinions on Umera Ahmed for whatever reason, but when
#FarhatIshtiaq
&
#UmeraAhmed
were the predominant Pakistani drama writers, that was a time of QUALITY. Sure, they made mistakes, but even those were okay. I would really like it back, thanks.
#PakistaniDramas
This kind of purity in romance is what I’ve been missing in
#PakistaniDramas
. Sure,
#JaanEJahan
has its tropes and cliches that we’ve grown accustomed to, but
#AyezaKhan
and
#HamzaAliAbbasi
are just magic in their scenes together. Already rooting for this beautiful duo.
Hamza Ali Abbasi is an actor we miss SO much. This movie only cements the fact that
#HamzaAliAbbasi
and Fawad are two of our BEST, film-worthy, and we deserve more. Hamza is a STAR, terrifying and commands the screen.
#TheLegendOfMaulaJatt
People acting as if
#FawadKhan
and
#MahiraKhan
have had so many projects together and need to stop working together. 😂🤔 It’s like 3 in 11 years, one of which hasn’t released yet. Chill. Fawad-Mahira fan for life. 😂 Yes, they should work with others…..and they DO. 🙄🤦🏽♀️
