It was indeed the best show I have seen in a very very long time...this for me was even better than some of the best American shows coz I had never been in my life got so connected and affected by fictional characters and their story like I did with P.o.w.

THE BEST ENSEMBLE CAST EVER!

All the characters were so beautifully written and enacted with perfection.

The supporting cast was fabulous.

All d love stories had different shades of love ! One was a mature love story of Imaan and Naaz , other was of acceptance - of Harleen and Sartaj and the third was of silent , unspoken love which was beyond boundaries - that of Sid and Afreen

All different yet beautiful in their own way

The music was surreal , so pure and beautiful!

The direction , the cinematography , dialogues , costume..each ans every department did their job with PERFECTION!

Truly the DREAM TEAM !

I am going to miss this show and the characters..what a beautiful , heartbreaking , bittersweet JOURNEY it has been...we laughed , cheered , cried , felt disappointed , rejoiced and felt proud..myriads of emotions !

What an AMAZING AND SPECTACULAR JOURNEY IT HAS BEEN !

It's like we lived and experienced what the characters felt through the journey...we embarked on this memorable journey with them!

MEMORABLE ! Yes I think Memorable is the right word to describe this entire journey.

This was such a real , hard hitting and an emotional show..it was really thought provoking...it pushed us to think and ponder upon the hard realities of life...THE TRAGIC REALITY OF OUR SOLDIERS !

A show which was path breaking and which left a deep impact on our minds and forced us to think and get up and personal with the lives of not only the soldiers but also their families...it made us face the TRUTH..THE KORA SACH ! - which was painful but as real as it can get !

A BIG THANK U TO THE TEAM FOR PUTTING UP A SHOW LIKE P.O.W. AND GIVING US THE GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO WITNESS AND GET TO KNOW SOME OF THE FINEST ACTORS OF OUR COUNTRY

Especially ANURAG ! IF it wasn't for P.o.w.I would have never know that a brilliant actor like ANURAG SINHA even excited..I was aware about the rest but for me ANURAG was a surprise ! And I am so greatful that I got to know about him and watch him weave his magic on screen.

He has become my favourite !

I will miss our discussions which were always very healthy which I really appreciated..we all felt so comfortable in putting across our point views without fearing any kind of backlash...it was always very friendly and a healthy discussion. It was the best forum where there were no fan wars and we all could freely appreciate our favourite actors and even praise other actors also!

Gonna miss this show and this forum very much !

Wish the entire cast all d best for their future endeavours and wish we can see them asap on our screens again

Dying to see Anurag back on my screen already !

M MISSING EVERYONE ALREADY !

GOD! IT IS GOING TO TAKE TIME TO GET USED TO P.O.W. LESS DAYS...this show has spoilt our habit ! Now in comparison to this show all other shows seem so mediocre that I don't feel like watching TV !

JUST WANT THE ACTORS TO COME BACK ASAP NOW..ANURAG COME BACK ASAP😳

Thank u and see u people !

you said it what each of us feel about the show . It has indeed been a memorable journey with this show. In fact I would give them extra marks for the casting .

Jitni Taareef ki jaye utni kum hai..

From A to Z, the show was fabulous..

Each and every character depicted beautifully a certain trait of human behavior...

Imaan - The Inner Strength - Such a wonderful character.. His character, his life itself is a lesson of gratitude, a lesson to keep going, keep fighting.. To value the gifts of god ... Life is short and it may not make itself worthy of us, but at least we can try to become worthy of life..

Vikram - Patriotism and humanity.. He had the heart to forgive Imaan and Sartaj when they accepted they had killed Sid.. He had the heart to forgive him when they confessed that they had planted the bomb at NSA.. He always had those eyes, which knew to differentiate between a perpetrator and a victim.. Neither a victim was punished by him nor any criminal could escape from him.. Such was the duty bound officer he was.. A wonderful human being who spoke less but spoke meaningful and did the rightful..

Harleen -perseverance - I loved the part about her in the show that post Sartaj left, she completed her education and became a self made woman in her village... She had immense patience and understood her husband at every step.. I also loved that post Indira fiasco, she made Sartaj work for their relationship and just did not give in easily.. She loved him but also kept her self respect intact..

Sartaj - Simplicity - His story and life was quite simple and just like Purab said in his FB chat that till Sartaj was there his presence did not make an impact as much as his death made.. That was a heart rending moment.. Had wished a happy ending for him but just like all were the pawns in the hands of time in this show, so was Sartaj Singh..

Veera and Satpal - Innocence - The sweet couple even with their little SS and cute nok jhoks were pleasant to watch..

Naazneen - Dignity.. She was indeed the smart woman of the show.. Another self made woman, a celebrity.. A single mother to her kids just like Shobha.. I loved the self confidence with which Naaz spoke.. The authority in her voice... Truly a Nayi Soch...

Salim - Patience and Sacrifice.. Strange are the ways of life... The whole Khan family had thought that they have lost Imaan and at the end it was Salim whom they lost.. A pure heart, another wonderful soul of the show.. He just by being there made everyone's life so much simpler.. Naaz, Shaira, Ayaan, Mrs. Khan all could count on him...

Shobha -Self Respect -Another strong woman of the show who endlessly waited for her brother to return.. All she asked for a second chance for him.. Unfortunately she never got one.. Just like Vikram she was also very forgiving... Be it Imaan, Sartaj or Afreen she understood their situations and accepted / welcomed all of them in her life with open arms..

And last but not the least our very own lost boy, Siddhant / Sadiq... He had everything .. Love in his heart, vulnerability in his soul, junoon in his spirit and a mind of great intelligence.. The only thing he didn't had was destiny by his side and a right direction in his motives...He was one of the most fascinating and a complex character.. Can't thank the makers enough for telling the story of his life.. For years he yearned for love and togetherness... His life had very few moments of happiness and they also short lived ... the poor soul found peace only in death... A human being or a terrorist, his story will forever keep oscillating between these two extremes... :(

Enjoyed the show to the fullest... Loved everyone's acting ...All have made the show one of the most memorable one... From acting to the sets to the costumes to everything that came in front of our eyes everything was so real and relatable ..

Anurag and Satyadeep were my favorite, as actors as characters..They have made Siddhant and Imaan become unforgettable...

The show has showed the mirror of reality to the audience as it is.. It was beautiful watching, reading and writing a lil about the most wonderful shows..

Thank You for this thread..

Thank you POW..

I hope this show has a re run..😃

wow what an amazing post by you. You have worded each & every character perfectly . It was a beautiful show with stellar cast & totally on par with American shows intact at some places they bested homeland specially sid part . Anurag & satyadeep are my favs too because this is the first time we all saw them perform & in just one chance they have earned fans for life . Credit to makers for attempting such a quality content.

Thank you so much for this wonderful show. It was not a regular show which I see on tv daily , earlier I used to predict the story which most of the times come true but here not my single prediction come true.This show has raised the bar of Indian Television shows now watching any other show will not be the same. After seeing this type of great content with perfect execution i can't see other shows with the same perspective which i used to watched it earlier.

The credit of success of the show should be given to each and every person who worked so hard for 1 year to give us this outstanding experience. I would like to thank each and every person related to the show writers, director, actors, editor, casting director who discover these talented actors, set designer, costumes designer, makeup and hair artists, singer and composer of amazing songs,channel starplus ,etc (sorry if i forget any department)

Thank you Anurag, Sataydeep, Sandhya, Manish, Rasika, Purab, Amrita, Parul, Sahil and all the supporting cast for bringing life to these well written characters.

Thanks Nikhil Advani and his term for showing us realities and pain of Indian solider's life and for not changing your content to gain TRP.

yup this is one Indian show which literally surprised us all at many points & the twists were indeed shocking . Hatts of to makers for giving us a successesfull ride of shocks & thrills .all the actors were just terrific . My dad who literally hates Indian show s too is a fan of pow & he always says this show is indeed different & good . He too is impressed by the performance of actors & always say they are so different from others . Thanks to Nikhil Advani & star for pow .

Beautiful post Megha and POW was indeed something. Among men it was Satyadeep and Anurag for me as far as performance goes. Among ladies it was Sandhya and Rasika. What differentiated the show was it showed the conflicts of men and strength of women. And interestingly it was not through loud dialogues ( though there were many beautiful dialogues the epilogue dialogue on Iman taking the cake. There is not a man like him who has lost much, there is not a man who is as lonely as him), it was through simple gestures we felt it.

Also unlike other shows where every characters other than protagonist job is to make life hell for protoganists this show showed the positivity in humans. Whether it is Shobha who is able to forgive Iman or Sartaj or Harleen who hugs Afreen it showed beautiful positive sentiments that inspire you. They showed some beautiful relations that of Veera-Satpal and Harleen. I mean how much Veera and Satpal respect and love their bhabi and acknowledge her contribution for the family. Salim and Naz . yes they fell in love but never once compromised their principles. the proud boy Ayan, ferocious daughter Shaira, everything had something to it positive.

The characters were human not Gods or Devils which was another beauty of the show. Once again hats of to Nikhil Advani for this show and thank you Megha for asking me to watch it. I watched it because you told homeland is a good show and I should try its remake. It was worth every minute of time spent.

After Ek tha Chander Ek thi Sudha I would say POW is a good scripted show I have watched and will be waiting to watch something beautiful

thanks shruti . Your analysis was something everyone looked forward to read on forum for all the characters & episodes . I absolutely Heart Anurag & satyadeep . The dialogues of this show were pure gem. At many places pow did better then homeland specially handling of sid track . They connected me to sid where as i never felt anything much for brody there . Their women characters all of them were strong & didn't needed loud ott dialogues & sequences to talk about women empowerment as their characters gave a loud & clear message regarding the same .all the other shows are so full of negativity with all the plotting but here it was all about the circumstances & not unnecessary planning of troubling others . Credit to Nikhil Advani for pow & choosing the amazing star cast to portray these characters who have made them unforgettable & literally immortalised them .

I don't know why, but this song always reminds of Sid and Sid - Shobha relationship, their scenes, whenever I listen to it... 😊⭐️

Naina.. jo saanjhe khwab dekhte thhe

Naina.. bichhad ke aaj ro diye hain yoon

Naina.. jo milke raat jaagte thhe

Naina.. sehar mein palke meechte hain yoon

Juda huye kadam

Jinhone li thi yeh kasam

Milke chalenge hardum

Ab baant'te hain ye gham

Bheege naina..

Jo khidkiyon se jhaankte thhe

Naina.. ghutan mein bandh ho gaye hain yun

Saans hairan hai

Mann pareshaan hai

Ho rahin si kyun ruaansa ye meri jaan hai

Kyun nirasha se hain

Aas haari huyi

Kyun sawaalon ka utha sa

Dil mein toofaan hain

Naina.. thhe aasmaan ke sitaare

Naina.. grahan mein aaj toot'te hain yoon

Naina.. kabhi jo dhoop senkte thhe

Naina.. thehar ke chhaon dhoondhte hain yoon

Juda huye kadam

Jinhone li thi ye kasam

Milke chalenge hardum

Ab baant'te hain ye gham

Bheege naina..

Jo saanjhe khwab dekhte the

Naina.. bichhad ke aaj ro diye hain yun

😳 😳 😳 😳

I always thought I was the only one who relates this song to Shobha and Sid

Such a beautiful and tragic song just like Sid and Shobha's relation...perfectly suits them as if written only for these 2 😭

this song is perfect for Shobha & sid as we have all seen how Shobha had waited for him for son many years . Damn I miss the show & there's nothing that catches my attention to even give a chance to watch .

got busy with something towards the end of the show and could not manage to visit the forum
