15 Reasons Why Pakistani TV Serials Are Better Than Indian Ones - Page 6

Pak shows are given way better treatment even stories are repetitive and this puts them in better position. Since that sex on Pak shows on TV topic is closed on bw forum, I was too late to make any post there.

we definitely have had our fair share of brilliant shows..in the 90s.. TBH before Kyunki happened to her, even ekta's shows like Hum Paanch, Koshish were fabulous! by that measure, she is 0.1% better than the likes of Rashmi sharma and Gul khan😆

the pain point is not just the show makers or channel owners, but what the audience wants to see?

Many Indian shows till date start with a good concept (which obviously does not include nonsense like Nagin), but when the trps dip in the initial months, when it is still sticking to its original concept..they change it to outrageous tracks to seek it..which ranges from love triangles, quadrangles, jodi swapping, marriage ruckus, saas-bahu fights to extreme shit like nagins, bhoots, werewolves!🤢 forget fiction, even historicals and mythos have to be tampered with to gain audience attention..

Pak shows - I believe even there the glorification of mazloom aurat is what catches people's fancy..hence Chup Raho was the highest rated show of last season?????

Beneath that gems like Jackson Heights, Mere Humdum Mere Dost go unwatched there as well

Jackson heights was very boring 😆 .

While good amount of shows are written properly, majority are written with the intent of commercially selling.

theses are the same reasons i have been watching them.. amen

Indian shows starts off well but get crappy after 6 months. Gul Khan used to be good actually I used to love how she treats her shows with unique songs and romantic BG for all her couples but she got bad since she started following the Naagin concept. Even Saurabh Tiwari shows are good for the first 6 months the musics for his shows are amazing even though storyline is cliched.

I agree..Both are MASTERPIECES👍🏼 ..Even mera naam yousuf hai is d best in its way..I love how women fought for their rights.👏

Binge watched ZGH after reading about it on this thread; WOW!!! the talent, direction, writing are fantastic!!

Its true that it is condensed in 25 episode, but a BIG fat lie that it is always about second marriage and torture. I guess I am watching different dramas as it does not contain the same in every single drama 😕. (I am watching Mann Mayal, mera yaar miladey, naraaz, Tum mere kya ho, Bhai, Gul e Rana and few more i do not remember the same). None of these dramas have the torture nor second marriage. More than half of the dramas i have seen in my life did not contain that. And even if it does contain some of the same content u can actually differentiate between the dramas. And about romance, most of the dramas that ACTUALLY contain some sort of romance never get popular because they are inspired of indian dramas. Ppl like me watching pakistani dramas are actually NOT watching it for romance, my grandmother watching are not watching it for romance. I am very very happy that pakistani drama contain minimal romance, and when there finally is romance it is not crossing any limits. Last but not the least they really are based on reality, and you can relate to the issues.

I love my dramas, I had completely stopped watching when star plus came to Pakistan and as a result Pakistani producers and directors lost their mind and went down the soap route, what a disaster was that. Thank fully they regained their senses and went back to their old ways.
I read here that Pakistani dramas are just remakes of old Indian movies, sorry but I strongly disagree, I can list Indian movies that are copies of not only our dramas, stage dramas but also our crappy old movies.
The point is for Pakistani's, dramas are a more popular choice, most of the times it has stories that Pakistanis can relate to, other times it has doorsrI Biwi crap, which also is relatable lol. Coming to to romance, I love that it's subtle and not in your face, easy to watch with families. We all know whT goes down on wedding nights, we don't need to see it.

Indian soaps from initial Ekta kapoor (k) dramas on star plus were fantastic and no doubt they were good till the end. Now just too many repeat stories and don't even talk about Naagin business to me. Current drama comedy on Indian tv are really good as well.
