Aren't almost everyone who are not tb fans kind of bored with both yumna and wahaj?

Ayeza looks and feels different in her shows unlike wahaj and yumna. Mein looked like a rushed project and still ayeza don't look drained out like wahaj. And why it is like that I don't know.

I think jaane Jahan was shot a long time ago. The project was announced when mere Humsafar was airing or just ended.

I think they are tired of Wahaj but not Yumna. I feel the Yumna craze is just now taking off since the last 2-3 months and and there is way more demand for her now than say back in August or September. I don't see that craze going down as of now. I saw some posts on Nayab promotions and there is always such a huge crowd to see her. Today, I saw a post on X and the video showed a mad scramble for Nayab tickets when the advanced booking opened, with people shoving each other and all. I don't think I have seen this for a Pak movie before esp. a female-centric one like Nayab.

Ayeza is a machine. i dunno how she does it. She shot for 3 shows this year + a new PS every 2 weeks + kids + vacations. Yet she manages to look fresh. Even Badar's ugly filters didn't dull her shine too much. I need time management classes from her.

I feel Wahaj has looked and acted different in all his shows - not saying that his performance or execution was good, just that Murtasim vs Saad vs Junaid vs Zaid are all very distinct from each other in their body language, how they cry, smile, walk, talk, interact with people. Again not saying you have to like how Wahaj played these roles just that they are played very distinctly from each other. You don't see Murtasim being a Zaid or a Junaid being a Saad.

OKB and Zara,I enjoyed them the most then Ahmed,didn’t have much opinion about Wahaj then.

I wanted to see more scenes if Ahmed and his pair but they were barely in the drama. They had good chemistry. Instead of wasting so much time on ahad and his boring love story they should have given more screentime to Ahmed and wahaj..

But Ayeza posted about last day of shoot of Jaan-e-Jahan in Nov 2023

Since it's an ensemble cast show the shooting might have been long with breaks in between to get the dates of the actors.

I liked Wahaj the most in that show.Really wanted to see more of him but was disappointed.There was so much unnecessary importance given to Ahad's character! Got irritated midway and was on the verge of dropping it.Though Sinf-e-Aahan wasn't great either,I think it got better distribution of screentime than Ehd-e-Wafa.

Sinf e ahan also had more leads than ehd e wafa and they still managed to give proper screentime to all. Ehd e wafa only have 4 main leads and they could have easily distributed screentime to all 4 equally.

Ayeza is a big time multi tasker and i guess she has truly cracked the art of work-life balance. She is passionate about her work and wants to be the best at everything she does.

I remember Mussadiq Malek saying that she could give masterclass on professionalism to the industry.

All these qualities make her what she is!

They have been pairing new comers with experienced actors and nepos get the best dramas like dure and hamza got bilal and sajal and the projects are also bigger with more prominent writers and directors. Whereas komal and the one in danish's upcoming got relatively lesser roles where they don't have anything to do and it's all about danish.

Such a smart move to increase newcomers popularity....half of bilal's fans are now dure fans /stans etc and same might happen in hamza's case

This is the third time hum is pairing up sajal with a nepo. First ahad, then azaan got both sajal and yumna and now hamza. In hamza's case he atleast have a decent enough fan base and already have one hit show where he was the solo lead unlike ahad and azaan who had zero credibility before yks and iel. I like most of azaan's songs though. I hope he sticks to making songs. Hamza in alif and Bilal in KA were the only two actors she got of her calibre in ages and there is wahaj in pink shirt but God knows when we will be able to see that.

IDK if I remember correctly but many people loved Wahaj in Ehd e Wafa and wished to see him more..that was the phase when he was highly underrated..its just that now he is everywhere..that we want him to take a break..his acting is fine..its his face that is looking tired and jaded, like he needs to go for a day spa right away. But TBH..I have always blamed Fawad for not doing enough work in his prime years..and now he looks like a phuphajee (in that Ahmed Ali Butt IV)..he has let himself go (probably it is also that he is a diabetic)..he sounds like he isnt very interested in acting in general (he is already drained while shooting for JBHSSL)..its all well and good to maintain a mystical aura..but he could have done quality dramas from time to time..its the dramas that made him the name that he is....and Pak movie industry is still sort off in this constant revival stage..Maula Jutt was awesome..but thats just once in a blue moon kind of a movie...

So I dont blame Wahaj for being offered so much work and making the most of this phase of his career...because he is the top billed actor currently..but he needs to be careful about the choices he makes..TB for all the chemistry it had, was a toxic af show..MPHT was boring as hell, Mein's script is just all over the place and it s a 2 wife drama no less..I hope Sun Mere Dil is good..
