I loved Humsafar but yeah to an extent it is overrated. I have watched ZGH this month fully and I enjoyed it but at times both were annoying lol. Mera Naseeb currently airs on Rishtey and I love every single episode man. It is a very well made drama except Syra who plays Nazia cannot act well. Sanam Saeed plays her role well.

I need to make a list of some of the dramas being mentioned. I love Pakistani dramas as well. I should watch these ones more than I do of Indian ones.

Hetal I watch DABH as well, I have a love-hate about it, it's just I hate how the whole Meena baby issue is being dragged on and when will Bhabho realise that Sandhya is innocent completely.

PS I've been keeping tabs on QH although I have never watched a single episode and love how Tanveer has been exposed now the romance can start😳

@Usman I am sorry but I find all Umera Ahmed's stories misogynistic! including shehr-e-zaat, durr-e-shehwar even Zindagi Gulzar had shades of misogyny in it!

Because...people can change and work problems out.


Humsafar was so stereotyped.
There was the Evil saas.
The ideal Pakistani hero.
The sati savitri heroine
The modern side character Sara "evil"

Why was the mother in law so evil? She had no morality whatsoever!

And the conspiracies and black and white characters did my head in.


Durr e Shahwar was notches above because there was no black and white. All characters were flawed in their own way.
The mother in law was shown as a woman, not a caricature. It was explained why she behaved the way she did. Shahwar's behavior initially was also not justified, she failed to understand how the class differences affected family dynamics.

Durr e Shahwar is the story of most Pakistani women and families.


My mom related to it, as did my Paki roommate. It connected to women across the ages.

My mom went through EXACTLY what Shahwar went through. My roommate teared up coz she instantly connected with Shandana.

Anyway, you have your opinion and I have mine.
D e S should be watched with an open mind. You have to watch it with the larger picture in mind, and not get hung up on one issue
