ZGH : A Rainbow Of Emotions Weaved In Relations

ZGH broke many preconceived notion . Just felt while watching as if watching the people around me whether its youngsters or the older generations. Same status factor here ,same life style . What is different ? Just a line .
Have left watching TV except English ones. After a long dry spell of good drama, finally found something worth watching and waiting for the next episode. It came with a lot of learning experience for audiences. ZGH came as a breath of fresh air.
Rafia, a strong mother of three daughters who raised them alone as her husband married a second woman because she can't give him a boy. She brought up her daughters with dignity and self-respect and made them financially independent. When Kashaf gets married to Zaroon, she came with lot of baggage which included insecurities, complexes. Rafia and Sidra helped kashaf by giving her small advises which builds her relations with in-laws strong. And later on also she makes Kashaf understand the values of every relationships. Help her to over come her complexities and Zaroon also has major contribution to make the marriage successful. He did not let ego come in between the two. He was steadily bringing her out of her self made cocoon.
Brother sister relationship which Kashaf also became the part of. There is so much about this show. This story has been so well written that each and every dialogue has meaning which can be seen in our day to day lives and for that all credit goes to writer or may i say the whole team from director to sound editor.
Fawad Khan as Zaroon played brilliantly the character and specially in intense scenes . His eyes can do the talking . And Sanam as Kashaf did great job . She has speaking eyes . Both of them brought the best in each other whenever was confronting scene .It was not just a love story but so many lessons of life weaved in . Do not have enough words to appreciate this show .Should better call it A Rainbow of emotions.
Zaroon with his ring genuinely tells Kashaf ' Till death do us apart ' And sanam ' Roses or no roses .Ring or no ring , i am commited to this marriage . This just one liners were enough to express the genuinity of their bonding of relationship .I can certainly thank Umera Ahmed for both Kashaf and Rafia 'characters. Both are strong, independent women who refuse to let anything or anyone compromise their dignity.
A show can be full package when every character plays a important role to take the story . No trash in the name of Romance , no glycerin factory , no mute cow daughter-in-law . And so was ZGH ! Kashaf's is the most well-etched character in this serial. She is very balanced in terms of how human she is - she gets angry, happy, envious, sad, frustrated, much like the rest of us . Never heard of Fawad Khan before ZGH and while watching just fell in love with the character who was a man with flaws but knew the meaning of respecting the relationship thus turned admirer of his work and same went for Sanam Saeed .
My tribute to the characters Zaroon & Kashaf ,played by Fawad Khan & Sanam saeed in Zindgi Gulzar Hai who Captivated me and breathed life in to the characters they played . These characters were challenge for me to gel them with old melodious numbers which have timeless beauty . So this is mine gift from here to other side , As music has no language ,only we can feel the emotions which have no language .So tried to fill the colors

Zindagi Gulzar Hai...Well i really cannot understand from where do i start 😳😳😳 Got to know about the serial from my friend on fb...somebody had posted Kashaf's confession scene on her wall and by luck, I happened to see it...and there were so many appreciative comments for the serial and Fawad-Sanam, and that was last episode that was being aired on Zindagi...my curiosity for the serial got sparked and then began my journey into the lives of ZaShaf...I watched the whole serial in 2 days flat😉 (mostly nights, as din mein kaam jo tha 😛), and I have become a lifetime fan of Fawad 😳 Before this serial, I didnt even know who he was or Sanam (Saeed, Baloch, Jung), or Sameena, or Mahira, etc., After that I have watched all his shows on YT and have liked them too, but not as much as ZGH...maybe, because it was the first one of his that I watched...Anyways, was eagerly waiting for Khoobsurat...but that was a sad letdown...not on Fawad's part, but the makers of that movie...He hardly had anything to do in it😕 how much he was given, he has done it as best possible the role deserved...Anyways, now back to ZGH 😊

Like most of you I was recommended to watch ZGH by a relative of mine. Being the impatient kind, I read up the story on wiki and when my relative asked me again I said that I hadn't watched it, but had read the story on wiki and knew what it was all about. She told me, unless I didn't watch it I wouldn't know what ZGH was all about. So one fine day, rather reluctantly I watched and and boy was I hooked??? Hook, line and sinker hooked!😆

Its again for the same reason as everyone has stated. All the characters were so real, all the situations so believable and the icing on the cake was the very real and natural way they unfolded the love story of Zaroon and Kashaf and I got to watch one of the most adorable pairing and love story, which wasn't a typical love story in the true sense, but much more real as it showed the evolution of Zaroon, Kashaf and their relationship.

Also apart from the very releatable story and characters, what made me connect to the main leads, was that we knew about their inner thoughts through their dairy enteries and their monologues, which were brilliantly written.

Also hats off to the creatives for juxtaposing the lives of Zaroon and Kashaf so well and also for juxtaposing the social message of gender equality, education and women empowerment, without ever being preachy with the love story of Zaroon and Kashaf. I haven't come across any other show that has done this.

I was thinking i ididn't have anything much to say about ZGH as I have already said so much in various threads, but there I go writing eulogy upon eulogy about it and I guess that does say it all for me.😳

I primarily started watching ZGH to check out Fawad Khan as lots of my friends had being going gaga over him for years now. 😆I had heard about the guy so wanted to find out if he really was all the hype. I didnt have much hopes from the show as hardly anyone I knew recommended ZGH.
And boy did he live up to the hype or what! He has been much more. Luckily I discovered Fawad when he was on the verge of making his BW debut and there has been no looking back since.
Coming to the show ZGH...if Fawad was outstanding so was the show. Its been a long time since almost every scene made me want to scream-Yes that happened to me...Yes I am Kashaf or Yes I am Rafia/Sidra/Sara/Zaroon/Asmara. Every character...every situation was so real and true to life.
Pakistani shows arrived at a time when I as a viewer was giving up on TV completely thanks to the unpalatable shows on Indian TV. Thanks to efforts by Zee and Zindagi to bring these shows to Indian viewers. What I loved the most was about ZGH that it promised like Indian shows to preach all values of hard work, diligence, honesty which the middle class holds dear but unlike Indian shows never forgot what it started out to say. Hats off the whole team of ZGH!

i will write a very short message here.
