How come other stars on those same channels can get better scripts where the story revolves around them and they get good screen time. Ek to hota hai an actor chooses a bad script where the role is so great like murtasim in TB, ya phir if role is less, the script is good like 22Q or EEW or GPM. In Mein and SMD, neither the script is good and role is less. Matlab fans cannot even justify chalo acting toh one of his career best thi ya phir chalo script toh bohat zabardast tha. As a B lister Wahaj did 2nd lead roles with more screentime and scope than his last two main lead roles. So it's Wahaj's own decision making that has gone on holiday.

True, ramsha is manged well by Samra, she is brand endorser of many brands. Even wahaj had half a dozen new brands after tb, now too he has a car ad and interior designer ad coming up. So idk what exactly led to this new development.

Hopefully, wahaj will take a break from geo this year as the geo calender is almost full this year. He has only tb2 with them. He should now try new working with new production houses.

Zaid atleast had some characteristic trait. That guy was a poster boy of rich spoilt egoistic brat, sure he wasn't much explored but atleast we knew what his character was. He used saam, daam, dhand, bhed to get married to ayra, didn't even hesitate while blackmailing mubashira with divorce threats, and forced her to convince his dad for his second marriage. Also 2 women were willing to be with him.

But here bilal is just a zombie, roaming around in his big mansion and office like a zinda lash. He had 2 attractive traits, drinking and womanizing, even that he doesn't indulges anymore. This is the worst character ever of wahaj. Everybody would say krq is male biased but ironically in this show he has absolutely given no footage to his male lead, made him so pious and mahan that he comes across as a dumbhead farishta.

I still think BA is better than Zaid but at least we saw more of him. Truthfully though, he was just there most of the time hanging around in the background. Bilal Abdullah was an interesting character and everything pre wedding felt interesting to me. He’s just not on screen anymore. There’s nothing to like or dislike because he just isn’t there.

Something is telling me this going Tere Bin way, the pace the drama is going, maybe it will end up with 50 episodes. We are moving snails speed at the moment, it's like the story takes 1 step forward and 10 backward in each episode.

All I can say is that if his own fans are so concerned, I’m sure he is. He most likely takes his work seriously. He probably did put thought into the project. The team seemed solid so he agreed. It does happen sometimes. I’ll say it again, if it can happen to the best of them like SRK then who is Wahaj? He had a strategy and it didn’t work out. It sounds like he’s recalibrating right now. There’s a new management team who he’s probably counting on to get him better projects. We haven’t heard of any other project that he has signed. It feels like he’s switching gears. It could work wonders or he could just be wasting time not signing anything. Let’s see but I think a guy who was able to shine in projects where he wasn’t even the lead and work his way up to TB has some strategic moves that work. He might just have to switch it up now. People expect more of him. If his name is being used, the audience expects to see a fair bit of him. His old strategy won’t work anymore, he’s too big for that now.

Kaddu uncle, haseeb could never give you a hit show even after directing shows written by ace novelist like umera ahmed, so how did you assume that he'd be a good option to helm this outdated script?????

Alif was a disaster in terms of ratings, same with jsa. Both have very less views too. So don't you understand that there's problem in his direction and you should stop giving him shows?? Siraj nahi toh wajahat ko de dete yaar, atleast they have bought out good performances and salvaged the show a bit.

Everything was fine in Alif there was no fault in direction. With Alif the case was different it was direct competing with mery pas Tum ho and ary highly promoted that show. When Alif started ary just stop using any break. The show runs like YouTube without any break. They need all the trps. The marketing was so intense that they even mentioned that this week episode will not be on YouTube so people watched live but episode was there on YouTube within an hour.

And JSA was also very good with script acting direction and wrapped under thirty episodes.

More than direction it's production house fault. This one is going to be Haseeb longest running show with more than 35 episodes. Channel does forced to drag the episode.

Production house took it lightly that they had wahaj and will get good ratings and all.

Haseeb always delivered if the script is good here story is so dragged with unnecessary content.

TB didn’t slow down until they entered the Flashback phase. Until then, it was pretty fast paced and Wahaj had a ton of screen space. You can see from the comments on YT that most people are watching this for Wahaj. When you have a project with nothing else going for it and the audience is only tuning in to see the lead and they barely put him in…I just don’t understand the strategy. I get that maybe they couldn’t foresee it, fine, but now that they have that info, can they not edit scenes out or speed them up? They have stretched out the scenes that don’t have Wahaj in them which makes his absence even more glaring. Two episodes can easily be condensed into one.

who are the other stars on this channel getting good projects? Sounds like the channel isn’t doing well. From what I’ve heard Daanish had reduced screen time in Jaan Nisaar too. I feel like it’s the couple that garnered most of attention and views as well as seeing Danish in a role that people prefer to see him in. He has fantastic pull but he also needs to do certain types of characters that audience prefers him in. He’s figured out this strategy and it works for him. His Ramadan drama with Ayeza didn’t do that great. TCM has less views than SMD. I’m not in anyway trying to downplay his fame…put anyone else in that and I’m guessing it wouldn’t get anywhere close to that many views. Point is that I don’t feel like Geo is offering fantastic roles for the last year.

I am sure Wahaj isn’t at random choosing projects. There must be a thought process there but it isn’t working so he has to adjust his strategy
