Gawwdd!!!! the ZGH brigade!!!Trying so hard to make a point abt ZGh being better than HS...good for u if u liked it! each to their own...but as facts and stats stand-ZGH was a successful show but HS is a blockbuster!! It is the show that revived urdu drama industry in pak and got everyone watching TV again!!! Obviously the HS craze is born out of millions of ppl watching..ZGh wasnt nearly as successful...a large reason being the blatant copy of HS treatment , settings and the longgg script which just didnt seem to get anywhere...had high expectations from ZGH post HS, but it dragged! Despite having a better story, the drama was average compared to HS which had a mundane story but fab treatment and excellent performances. HS is truly an ensemble drama. ZGH was just too blah blah blah with no end..they needed to have edited it by at least 6-7 episodes , and remove all the rubbish bw the father and step mother ( amount those two ate in the show!!) and yeah, who can forget the last scene, which again was a blatant copy of HS' original last scene that they later cut out to film a fresh new last scene once HS became the craze it did ( HS last scene is one of the best i have ever seen) .
ZGH suffered from a huge HS hangover which along with its dragged out screenplay was the reason for disappointing a lot of fawad fans
Woah! This some level of insecurity 😆 I didnt know there was a supposed ZGH brigade either. The only brigae I know is that of a unified Fawad fandom.
Secondly,if you could please open ur eyes and read the whole post,I pinpointed both pros and cons. Sorry,that Im not a blind viewer and say "Hey! Everything in the show is goddamn perfect." Its not. But that in noway tarnishes its beauty.
Thirdly,so according to you a more successful show has to be better content-wise too? 😆 what kind of logic is that? The most successful films,both bolly holly have commercial films doing more business even if the story sucks.
Again,not once in my post did I say "I hate humsfar bcoz I love ZGH!". That's ridiculous.Humsafar's story is not something we have not heard of before,if you defy me on this,I can bring in a list of shows and movies with the same storyline. That being said,I have clearly stated in the post that,even though it has an average story,it has the best possible execution of the same. Something i have never seen before and I truly commend the main leads and the director for that.
HS's story was always known to be average,this I was told by fans itself.
Again,I think ur new here,so ur not aware. I have loved ZGH whole-heartedly.true. But whenever there was something I didnt like,I HAVE STATED IN THE DISCUSSIONS just as much as I appreciated the things I liked. Similarly,I have openly stated how much I have loved Asher-Khirad scenes,so I have every right to say what I didnt like in the rest.
Lastly,if ur too lazy to read the entire post,I am loving Humsafar. Solely for Asher and Khirad and not the story.
Feel sorry for you that ur so insecure about ur supposedly favourite show. Coz I have a favourite too and Im not insecure as you. So,I can deate on the points u mentioned,but I simply need not.
