It seems to me that HS was a much tricker thing to get right - while ZGH could tolerate a bit of leeway since is script driven.
HS seems to capitalize a lot on the acting - in subtle elements - and in the music that accompanies the emotions that are happening on screen. While I have not been too charitable to Sarmat Khoosat - maybe there was some element of his involvement. Although I cannot discount the role of "producer" (as in PTV producer) - who are often all-controlling - and here Momina Duraid would have overall say. I wonder who did the music - and whether it is a music director - or does producer actually accompany that (or Khoosat did) ?
But HS has many elements that could easily have been done wrong - at times I felt that MK does cry too much (or maybe is slightly weak in that - i.e. as if forcing crying - as in the last episode scene with FK and his mother) - but others may have different take on that. But it was never excessive - so if anything the play manages to avoid the most blatant of mistakes which could have ruined it.
On the other hand some scenes are really sublime/electric at the same time - the scene with FK and MK in the park - full of nuance and balancing the different views of FK and MK is truly outstanding - and feeling of emptiness when FK's performance gets no response from MK. This same strategy is used to effect in the scene in episode 15 when MK meets FK and tells of daughter and needing his help - again very intelligent handling of how MK would respond (since is treating FK as a hostile party already - would not respond to his flareup).
There are other scenes as well.
As many have already said - the appeal of the actors is important as well - and perhaps this is what takes the drama to the next level (overall casting is good as well) - that they care. I could just as well imagine some of the other "actors" in pakistan playing those parts - and it would not have had half the effect. Since both MK and FK exude freshness - and same could be said for other actors - for example Sara in HS may have been doing one of her first roles (?) maybe.
Its the director,s take how he imagines the situation, scene and characters . In Khirad kind of situation either you are totally break or you become strong . In the early stage when she was thrown out that ti,me she was shattered and a broken person . But as for Khirad,s personality it was shown that she was the person of few words and a woman with self respect and dignity . She loved asher with her whole self where ego or self respect ha no place . When Asher rings her as he is also feeling bad that he was rude to her and when tells her that he was rude , she says mujhe bura nahi laga . She waited for Asher but Hareem,s birth cut the emotionally attached thread . And Khirad was the old Khirad with pride who can take care of her own daughter and she must have to be very strong when she says Asher Hussein is dead for me . Her daughter illness shattered her again and then her going to Asher where she says her self respect as a woman was dying somewhere when i was stepping to Asher,s office .
I have now started watching Pak shows after ZGH and have sen many on you tube . Triangle is not new concept has been going from 50.s . Liked Sara ,s acting also
This show has so many aspects on human nature .
