Ok, finally finished watching it.....lol
So firstly I'd say this guy talked a lot from the sales and success perspective of things.....which shows his history as channel/content head....dimaag woh corporate zone mein chala jaata hai phir.....lol
Kuch Qs ka faltu mein he was doing gol mol jawaab.....Hasan directly asked him ki how do you feel the leads performed and yeh banda aage se bol raha hai sales are great so that speaks for itself....lol like hain? Woh toh endddd mein jaake in last 5 min, inhone kasht uthaya of giving some insight into Bilal's committment to the script and his interest in aage ki script kaise shape up kar rahi hai.
It's frankly very obvious this guy didn't really want Bilal to do this role
....his first choice was Hamza and he seemed to have conceived FB also in how he expected Hamza to perform it. Woh toh Hamza ne reject kar diya for that other show toh phir Bilal se kaam chalaya....lol also cuz Bilal showed the capacity to grasp the whole concept with 7 epis ka narration. I dunno why they all hold back from praising the level to which Bilal has taken this script....bas ek halki se line maar dete hain ki haan he did good. Bol dete hain ki haan views aa gaye, trending ho gaya so that means Bilal must have done good....lol matlab khud se nahin bol sakte....so that shows clearly ki tumhein apna Hamza wala Shahmeer hi chahiye tha and you can't get over it enough to give Bilal his due to that level.....lol beech mein random line maar di about I wanted to write something that takes Bilal and director ka career to another level....but then uska koi elaboration toh kiya nahin.....lol so much for talking about IM ke script jumps but is IV mein bhi kaafi cheezein vague and jumpy chal rahi thi.
Baar baar baat ghoom ke used to come back to 8 se 9 ke slot mein Tier 1 actor chahiye tha...lol bhai you can't talk about Bilal ka caliber as an actor instead of reducing him to a sales figure for Tier 1 slot? lol aisi bhi kya kanjoosi....lol or maybe he wanted to avoid talking about Dure ki acting toh Bilal ko bhi usmein hi lump kar raha tha.....lol
This Hasan is a clown....kabhi rota rehta hai ki show is dragging too long, kabhi he wants to gush like a hormonal shipper over romantic scenes
Also I ROFL-ed big time that real life MAULAYI aadmi is Mr. Farooq Rind director saab himself according to this writer....ROFL ROFL....and Rind saab ko toh day/night gaaliyaan dete hain saare fans for supposedly not chemistryfing the show enough and this Hasan also claims he is great friends with Farooq but at the same time keeps fishing for criticism of his directing
......Pak industry ka media atmosphere I find very weird....itna double speak chalta hai
The IV was decent and it was nice to know how the story was conceived but I still feel Khaliq didn't come across well in this IV by trying to have it both ways ki haan I conceived it differently but success ho gaya toh all great, Farooq is my great friend, everything is kumbaya....lol toh matlab point kya tha phir complain karne ka bhi? Bas wohi line repeat karte rehte ki ratings aa rahi hain so why should we talk? lol validation bhi karna tha of the criticism and dusre moment pe bol dena ki all good cuz ratings phir bhi aati rahi.....lol
The scene that fangirls are wailing over - woh revelation wala....lol so he basically confirmed that he himself wrote Shibra forgiving Shahmeer quickly so then what are fangirls outraging over so much? lol simply cuz woh Gareeb ki Chai restaurant wala build up nahin mila? Jab end output is bande ne bhi same conceive kiya tha toh kis baat ka itna halla?
Sure it would have been nice seeing one or two more scenes of angst in the aftermath but whatever was shown was fine too....nothing has been ruined like people are faltu mein crying ki Bhalley scenes dikhaa ke show ruin kar diya.....lol
He is himself saying he conceived the script as a non saas bahu drama, no faltu ka triangle crap and that is the reason for the success of the show....this point I felt was bang on.....and the director did stay true to this basis. Baaki I don't really agree with the way the writer conceived Shahmeer as more aggressive....I very much prefer how the director and Bilal have crafted a softer Shahmeer who still manages to convey threats and menace from time to time without being some kind of OTT wannabe "alpha"....lol
Really didn't want to see more of faltu forced aggression and toxic crap which is there in every other Pak show also. Yeh log khud success sales pe itna discuss karte hain but none of them try to think that the audience wants SIMPLICITY again? That is why IM has worked.
