I wonder how SMD would have been if they sticked to KRQ’s original plan of 26 episodes. I feel the show would have been far more watchable.

I think it would be so much better. It has its flaws for sure but a lot shows do. If it’s entertaining enough, people forget the flaws. I think the pace was its biggest.

Even the lack of Wahaj would be forgiven if the rest of scenes were engaging and moved quickly. I feel bad for Usama and Amar because if their scenes weren’t unnecessarily dragged out and repetitive, I think those would have been more entertaining to watch too.

I honestly don’t feel like this is a bad story overall. I actually like it but it’s tooooo slow especially when you have to wait a week to watch new episodes.

I actually feel like even 26 episodes was stretching it. This could have been 20 episodes max

Especially the Dania-Ammar track have been stretched for far too long. They might have more scenes together than Hamsha and Sadaf has with Bilal.

At the base level, just getting rid of all those stretched scenes, long pauses, extended intros and outros, filler scenes, voiceovers, and speeding up the slow dialog delivery would have been an improvement. Even better if we could have chopped off or edited down repetitive scenes where the cktr repeats to another cktr what we already saw or know as viewers, edited out offensive and dated words and lines like saala, laundi, baanke, and taken out badly executed scenes or chosen different shots (like wahaj dance or him looking so off in the drunk scene), it would have been even better. Take out ajeeb horror suspense hitchcockian music, and that's another improvement. Fix the lighting and filters.

What I listed is literally stuff that could have been addressed in post production. A crisper less meandering fast paced story with less offendive words and good lighting would have been far more watchable.

Haseeb was so out of touch. On one hand he has girls in skirts nighties and people drinking alcohol like no tomorrow, which suggests he's leaning into the masala. But the way cktrs speak, the extended scenes with so much mundane details, the long pauses and slowness of it all se lagta tha he is making some merchant ivory art film. If you are leaning into masala, shoot it like a masala and not direct it like it's some pretentious philosophical art house cinema.

True but I’m assuming the script can’t be changed from what I’ve heard so I’m strictly going by what they could have changed in production and direction. They could have sped it up. It still would have been long and repetitive but way more entertaining. I don’t feel this is masala genre and honestly I’m not getting that vibe either. Like you said though, he used some weird Hitchcockian music and it doesn’t suit the genre. The background score isn’t suiting the scenes - it’s like there’s a creepy mystery unfolding. Direction is one thing but it’s like they didn’t do much editing at all. It’s clear they’re trying to drag out an already stretched out and repetitive script making it even slower.

Is it intentional that all the female characters on this show have been made to look desperate and jump from one man to another ? Dania dumped her husband for Ammar, Hamsha dumped Faraz for Bilal and Sadaf directly called Bilal as soon as she got her divorce papers. KRQ is portraying strong modern women or mocking them ? Look at the dialogues they spew out smiley36

Okay I know I keep chiming about this but how would you explain the scenes of them together from the OST/teasers? How would those fit in if this scenario is true?

sadaf will stay with bilal because she told ammar "i will live with bilal, you can live with dania, and we will reconcile after that if you want"

i think sadaf will stay in bilal's house for some project.

bilal will eventually date her to make her happy.

everything sadaf said will become true eventually.

They all suck though. Ammar is the worst. Bilal is the only one loyal but that’s now. He was a player before himself. Anyway this why I don’t think Ammar deserves redemption

You think they will date? Why would she stay in his house for a project? Can’t he afford to give her own place to stay? You never know with this show though. Anything is possible

For jealousy you commit suicide .. You yourself get married to someone else and then get divorce, and you come to take revenge of your two best friends marriage. Did they Break your marriage? You stoop so low to lure the husband ,make him believe that he is the center of your universe, keep brainwashing him against his wife just for what

How stupid

Sadaf is behavior is also confusing now

dania is not normal. she has psychotic tendencies.

also i think she isn't divorced. she just faked it throughout.

his house is like a big villa. if hamsha can keep going there, why can't sadaf stay there.

yes i think they will definitely date and that too very soon.
