Starting watching this show, I think its a decent watch for now. I do like the OST and I kinda laugh a bit due to the "ooooooo" which is sung by the chorus lol. 😂 🤣 Probably that's one of the major reasons which caught my attention to at least attempt to watch one or two episodes.
Concept isn't something out of the box but execution isn't that bad.
So the FL, Hareem, is the main breadwinner of the family, doing odd jobs such as event planner, tuition conductor, etc. Later, it's revealed that she was hired upon the secret recommendation of Faiz (who secretly harbors feelings for her but has no expectations which is nice to observe). He is knowledgeable of toxic vibes from his parents, esp the mother. Office set up is the used space of a prior TV show, Kalank. 
The brother, Rayan, is the ideal son of his parents. Though there are flaws in the ML as he's still financially dependent on his parents but it's nice to see that he knows how life is in poor family as he & his family have been through that phase before their lives went from rags to riches. In process, the parents developed obsession with a wealthy lifestyle. The father attempts to be frugal but, in the house, the wife dominates over him indirectly.
Faiz's mother tries to insinuate Faiz and is callous about his friends. I definitely liked his thoughts over encouraging growth through hard-work and losing oneself in the process. When he shared his thoughts vis-a-vis with Rayan, one can sense how that ideal son is actually so spineless in front of their mother by taking a stand for his mother. Yet, that's how Rayan's upbringing has been before Faiz came along.
His bond with his brother Rayan is okay but they have their own perspectives on middle/poor class folks. His fiancée & her mother privately chide his mother but attempt to falsify their fondness on the surface lol. 😂
I do feel the FL can do bit better in certain scenes but she's not that bad tbh. I think she only respects Faiz due to his unconditional favors over the years. I like her bonding with her elder brother & how well they both support & compliment one another. I particularly liked the scene wherein she confides about Nasir's lunacy over blurting out about his fondness & Rufi calmly listened to her thoughts. Also, the scene of Hareem handing over her money for their mother's treatment was nice one also -- I liked the dialogues & the conversation between the siblings. Hareem also respects boundaries of friendship and warned Nasir about it before Rufi & the parents came back. When Nasir told about the proposal to the mother, as expected, that stereotypical track of the mother thinking about Nasir as a prospective groom for Hareem and thats where things might cause that typical stir. But, let's see how the writers weave the plot.
Nasir is impulsive and seems obsessed with Hareem as an object that he wants for himself. His sister and mother are money-minded and probably they would develop into chote-mote side villains as Faiz's mother is toxic and domineering enough lol. 😂
i cant wait to watch todays epi after seeing this promo.
