As far as writing is considered in ITV.....The actors have told in the interview that the script and dialogues are sometimes handed over to them at the very moment....

And even then if they manage to act well, it is a commendable job then.

Yes, because of the restrictions PTV shows very understated romance. It is only now that people are opening up to more daring writing. Farhat Ishtiaq I think is good in writing this type of romance.

Yes, I also think the same about KRQ.

I think in PTV it’s very rare for writers to specifically create romantic “situations” in a story. Usually in a drama I can count on my fingers 2-3 good romantic scenes given to the leads in an overarching general story. For some reason, writers shy away from or don’t make time for it in the plot.

This is why Nooran was different because despite the shoddy plot and the contract hook point that had us all hanging by the thread, she made TIME for romance. She specifically designed the plot around the romantic moments. Which is why we got a good 1-2 scenes every episode. Plus YumHaj just made even the most basic domestic scene fiery as hell 🔥 Dono ka haath tha. She wrote it and then YumHaj made great use of it.

However, situational romance aside there have been good romance stories like Kabli Pullao too. That’s not a situational love story per se - again I can count on my fingers the amount of purely romantic moments we got - but the love story is good and the writing as well. Zafar Mairaj did better in terms of striking a good balance between romantic scenes and blending it with his plot. Every episode was weaved in a way to bring the two leads closer together.

KRQ is great at writing romance too. He just makes the FL problematic at times and lacks depth when it comes to FL. TMK main 123 was written by him and it was written well. Despite it being a controversial take as is the case with him most of the time. He’s very poetic.

So yeah some variety is there is PTV but overtly romantic situations are rare. Which is why people are starved for things like TB and IM 😂 Romance chahiye logo ko bhai

Purana ptv ka romance aap ne dekha nahi shayad

PTV has gotten more conservative in terms of themes and what they show compared to 12-13 years.

I think she’s asking about current situation of PTV thanks to PEMRA.

But thanks for this - I have to go bleach my eyes now after seeing that Kadwani song in its entirety That too on Atif’s song. If Pemra was created to protect us from such visions, I’m glad it exists 🤭
