Then according to this TB 2 should also not repeat the pair again. 🥲

Also I hope tere bin 2 is shelved! 2nd seasons usually don't work.

Wahaj can work with Iqra in a new drama.

no they shouldn't! They should take a new male lead and wahaj is already doing similar role in SMD. They should take farhan Saheed he was so good in begam badasha

Farhan or ahad maybe. He’s kinda doing similar role from TB to Mein to SMD. Yes you are right , second seasons ruin everything. Iqra’s script choices have been off lately, so I would like wahaj to work with anyone, but script should be good because now he has that star power to make a show hit himself, he can pull views and trps together, but his focus should be on getting good scripts.

There was nothing similar between his roles in Mein and TB. Zaid being nothing like Murtasim was the biggest complain

but SMD sounds similar to murtasim/ tere bin. Going by that leaked bts he seems In love with the girl and begging her while on his knee. And If he doing tere bin 2 that’s also a romantic drama ,

We cannot judge his character just based on one leaked BTS. The director doesn’t make shows like TB

if he is spending more money than tere bin, then hopefully it makes more profit than tere bin. Expections are pretty high considering its even bigger project than tere bin in terms of production value.

I don't think Tere Bin was an exceptionally expensive drama. It seemed to be similar in budget to Geo's other mega drama serials. JN seems to have similar budget.

The real expensive Geo dramas were KAM3 and Khaie. Jhoom was also expensive - it was their first 4K and they bought special equipment just for that.

In Khaie they had booked the whole hotel/resort for themselves. In SMD, the shoots in FSB hotel were taking place in the middle of all other activities.

SMD seems similar in budget to GEO ke other mega serials. It's not on the same level as KAM3, Khaie or Jhoom. Frere Hall mai har waqt TikTokers aakar dance reels banate hain so it's not an expensive location to shoot.

I’m pretty sure TB 2 will have a bigger budget

Yeah TB2 I think will have a bigger budget like KAM3 or Khaie.

but the person I quoted was talking about tere bin ( first season ) so SMd has to become a bigger hit than tere bin otherwise kaddu uncle will be upset. And i have my doubts about tere bin 2 being made. There is no news about it.

Nobody expected TB to be a big hit the way it was when they were making it. At max, it was supposed to be a hit like Fitoor was a hit. Neither Yumna and Wahaj were mainstream commercial TRP getters. Wahaj toh kisi khaate mai nahi tha but even Yumna's biggest solo hit was Raz e Ulfat before and Parizad.

Haseeb gets critical acclaim for Geo but he is not a TRP getter. Even Alif had top stars for its time (Sajal and Hamza) but it wasn't a TRP hit. I think Kaddu expects SMD to do well but he is not an idiot to think it will do TB #s. Having Wahaj in it doesn't mean he thinks it will be as big as TB. Haseeb's previous dramas featured top superhit stars of their time - Sanam Saeed, Maya, Hamza, Sajal - and have had big budgets (remember Diyar e Dil) but they usually get awards not big TRPs.

Galaxy Lollywood said that a lot of celebs have fake followers. You can always tell by the engagement on their profiles for example if someone has 10M followers and is barely getting 50k likes then that means something is fishy.
