hey everyone !
i m from pakistan and so happy to see that zee have taken the intiative and started showing pakistani content like our channels who are showing indian content since 3 to 4 years . I do appreciate Indian tv industry , singers and films cause i love to watch them . I also praise u guys because u all have shown so much love for pakistani talents . 😊
ok guys ! i was wondering would Dastaan b onaired or not ...Actually its been based on a muslim girl who supports pakistan and muslim league at time of partition and how her life gets affected in partition . intially its a love story of bano (sanam baloch) and hasan (fawad Khan). but when story progresses its bcomes more like bano's love for newly born country pakistan ... so its more like story of our side with our perspective ... would't it b a risk to on air Dastaan ?
and by saying our side of story dosent mean that i don't ackowledge the sacrifice of hundreds of bano's of ur side 😊 because i really do ... it concerned me beacuse i saw some terrible comments on youtube at ZGH video from both sides . and at that some people even demanded to ban the channel ...
so tell me ur point of veiws ...

it's not really necessary to put every show on the channel.

I honestly don't think it will be aired. I am sure some radical group somewhere will do a dharna and start asking for banning the entire channel . humare yahaan logon ke paas kaphi phaltu waqt hai.

In the montage of several shows that is used in the promotional adds of the channel zindagi...they are do showing visuals of Dastaan...though they have not yet shown the trailer of the show separately..but the rest is probably the channels call to take...

I hope they don't air Dastaan. I really truly would have loved watching Fawad's Hassan on my TV but there are many many many who would definitely create a big issue out of this show. There are some souls protesting on twitter about cigarette smoking being shown in ZGH & that it is illegal and that they will complaint to some authorities even though Smoking Kills is mentioned onscreen as per the rules I think. I have also seen the anti Pak/anti India comments being thrown by some stupid souls on the Humsafar OST in the Zindagi YT channel.
So yea airing Dastaan would be kind of a very bad decision on Zee's side.

I think I saw the promos. Not sure though.
Anyway,its better they dont. I'd love to see Fawad and Sanam on tv,but not at the expense of protests happening on roads.

Hmm,is it that communal btw? I know the story is from a Pakistani's POV. But as long as it doesn't demean India,its fine.

Any Indian here who has seen it and can throw some light into it?

A few of my frnz have watched it,but only in bits and pieces,so cant really consider their reviews.

But if they do air it,I think they'll make sure to cut scenes(if there are any) that might be tagged as offensive.

People have been protesting about the cigarettes? They should open their eyes and see the disclaimer shown "smoking kills" every time such scene comes 😆 Btw I know the board had put a ban for smoking scenes in films,but it was lifted I think.

Does it hold good for tv too?

Don't mind the youtube comments.
People with lots of phaalthu time take part in trolling. It serves no purpose other than irritating someone.

Even I hope they don't show Dastaan given the really low tolerance that India has shown in the past decade for something with a difference.
From MF Hussain to the movie Gadar (apparantly some group did not like that the heroine was named Sakhina)
or to the stupid fight over Jodha Akbar (the movie)

SPOILER
Its not really Anti Indian Infact first time bano is saved from a rape by a hindu, then another time a Sikh man helps her. And lastly its again a Sikh woman who helps her reach Pakistan finally. The thing is Dastaan is not only abt partition, its abt a lot of other msgs. Depends upon how u look at it. Its a abt how a woman became the worst victim of Partition because there are bano's from both sides of the border still trapped in forceful marraiges and rapes. The show also shows how there is a basanta(Antagosnist of the show) every where partition or no partition and how human relationships change after a certain situation especially if the situation is of a rape victim.
The only flaw of Dastaan is that itt doesnt really acknowledge the killings of hindus the way it should but then its a pakistani show ought to be like dat. Just India has made films like gadar and Pinjar, pakistan made Dastaan.
And its better not to show dastaan on zindagi though I would love to see Fawad n Sanam and their amazing chemistry on mty TV screen
