Sahir singing - just the way it was meant to be!

I had to make a post about this one!

The episode was rushed no doubt but then we know why. Nevertheless, it was extremely enjoyable! It was all about happiness and Arzoo's attempt to help Sahir break out of the past and go back to his real self. If they had time, the process could have been slower but they moved real fast - he opened up bit by bit with every sequence. And he opened up beautifully.

In the ice-cream scene, he breaks a seven-year old tradition. Then in the pot making scene, with Arzoo's help, he builds something new for himself. And finally that last singing scene - a little controversial now for the song choice 😉 - but that was the real Sahir at last. She has gifted him all the simple joys of life; so, he gifts her back who he was and perhaps who he longs to be again now - and this is exactly what Arzoo wants. I loved their free flowing interactions in the first two sequences, seemed so normal - HC's brilliance comes out in such simple scenes too - he makes them look so much like 'no' acting at all! 👏

Now for the song choice; honestly, I was taken aback when the song began. As many others, I was expecting a slow, intense number and thought probably they will make HC sing too - in that baritone So, when the track began, it was kinda loud and too fast. But as it progressed, the smile on my face got bigger and bigger 😃 By the time it ended, I had thoroughly enjoyed it! The gaiety in the atmosphere, his lovely big smile, the way they looked at each other, the way he held her in that embrace as they strummed the guitar together - it was all about being totally happy and free of cares. There were no reservations in Sahir this time, the control, the intensity was missing but I think the CVs meant it to be just like that 👍🏼 To show the youthful, simple, open and happy Sahir. Allah knows, he must be tired of his brooding, serious self now; he must be wanting to break free, to be like his Arzoo - spontaneous, joyous, without any burdens weighing him down... and so he was - the real Sahir that was lost for so long! This sequence was not for the Sahir we have known - it was for the Sahir that had to be rebuilt in the course of the show 😊

And that made me very happy 😃At the end of the day, Aye Mere Humsafar (that began rather unexpectedly) would go down as one of the most memorable SaAz scenes at least for me! Just for the sake of the beauty and happiness it evoked 😃

Although I was also little surprised when the song started. I was also expecting HC to sing something but like u said the atmosphere of openness & joy that it created and the way it brought them together was marvelous..

Like you, I was also expecting a much slower no, and that too sung by HC. But the impact this song and overall sequence had, will be remembered forever.. It was abt introducing us and Arzoo to the real Sahir - open, simple, talented and full of joy.. and we got full flavour of that. totally saazilicious.

Quite a pleasant surprise - wish we got to see more SaAz moments like these

Thank you 😃 Yes, the impact was very good and it left a lasting memory - I don't think I will forget HC's smiling face in this scene ever It was so natural and from the heart

Lovely post 👏l

N yes for one I love Qsqt songs so sahir singing it as a plus for me 😳

I too enjoyed it

But yes HC was adorable as always ... i loved his expressions ... specially after the initial few seconds

Thank you 🤗 They revived quite an old memory and very nicely 😊 Btw, any idea who the lead is in 4 Lion's next? 😉 HC by any chance?
