Everyone has a favorite show that they can always go back to
and watch a million times and never get tired of it. I have a few as well, but
rarely do we get something that is so close to reality, you almost question
yourself whether the story is being told from your point of view or it really
is nothing but a show. The characters, the incidents, everything is so simple
yet so intriguing that even those who never look towards the TV screen for such
dramas are now hooked because of the beauty that lies hidden beneath all the
simplicity portrayed THROUGHOUT the show.
Yes, I'm talking about the one and only show, Humsafar. This
show, being the one Pakistani drama that beats Star Plus' typical saas-bahu
shows and their TRPs. The one drama which revolves around the same story which has been told many times before, same
character sketches which we normally see on TV, then you ask, what is SO
gripping about it then. One would fail to come to any other conclusion besides
that it's the SIMPLICITY over and again. The pure innocence that is portrayed
by our gorgeous Khirad, the blind, undying trust of Asher, and both Asher and
Khirad's yearning to be with one another, yet destiny decorating a very bitter
reality for them.
My safar for Humsafar has been one of a roller coaster.
Actually, let me speak on behalf of all my friends (whom I now consider a part
of my DAILY life, as dear to me as another family member) who are ardent fans
of this show as I am. Not only have we found a family while we drooled over
KhiSher chemistry, cried when they cried for each other, hated when they acted
silly, and celebrated as episodes kept getting extended and we had increasing
opportunities to cry and smile for the two Humsafars.
Somewhere in the story of Asher and Khirad, we could relate
to something that was so close to reality, OUR reality; something that happened
to us, a family member, or even a close friend. I know I found my reality in
the entire show and until now, I thought nothing could be better than MZZB, but
Humsafar changed my opinion. MZZB was something, but Humsafar did wonders on
just another level, WORLDWIDE.
Let's give it up for the entire team of Humsafar and most of
all Fawad & Mahira who brought us Asher & Khirad. Let's cherish the
countless memories we made and so many wonderful friends we found in our little Humsafar
family!
We are and always will be:
