“Manchalay”@ Hum TV

 Hum Tvhave some thing refreshing about its telecast , which keeps viewers glued to this channel… recent Drama Manchalay with good cast and excellent direction by Roomi Insha , is most entertaining…

Serious issues addressed with humor.

Qavi khan  is handling his role well…. so is Seemi  as his wife. 

Farhan Ali Agha is may be  doing his best performance ever…. as an insecure husband who appears nerdy but wanted  more glamour in his wife… at time he is hilarious.

Sanam Baloch , Hina Dilpazeer and two” Bahoos “are excellent… script is good and  is at  good pace since from the beginning…  Whole cast  is  very justified.

Hero bannay ki Tarang! ( ary digital)

Above mentioned reality show is a  good concept for our younger generation,,, there are so many talented people who might get to show their acting skills…and become our new Shan. 

Hunt is on for a Hero for Syed Noor’s movie.

Programme is hosted by Faisal Quraishi, and Judged by Raisham, Syed Noor, and Afzal( rambo fame) they are  doing their job well… over all very entertaining   and interesting presentation …. some time  we get to see some really funny characters too.

 Some participants   showed” namastey styled thanks” to judges… which is usually because they just opened their eyes in last two decades or so and  while  watching Indian channels  all the  time, to understand “that “was a thing only belongs” there” not” needed here”.

   That is the down side of media ,people  do get influenced right or wrong both reasons…

Cartoons @Geo TV

At Geo TV channel we have to go through a very “yawning ” segment , which is cartoons by Zaidi.
This segment is boring as an old record and have no timing or sense of humor behind it.
Dialect, dialogue and script are usually weightless…Despite some interesting topics there is no punch line or spontaneity in this telecast ever..

Michael Jackson (RIP)

Since the news of Michael Jackson’s death spread all over the world, it is more evident than ever before that he was a legend! original and creative all in one!.It is saddening for most of the people fan or non fan a like that he found death as unpredictable and sad as his life was…

Ashti… by Hum TV

A beautiful effort to depict the culture  of Pakistanis of Bangladeshi descent. Seema Ghazal has raised the bar for herself. Casting, production every little detail is played well .

Fahad Mustafa, and Faisal Quraishi, Parveen Akber are amazing….they look the part.

Raisham, for the first time, is doing a  non-glam role very well.

Aik Din Geo Key Saath”@ Geo,

Most probably this is among, THE most known and longer running  programmes @ our private TV channels……… Host is famous” Suhail Wariach”….. He got really popular first for his unique style of asking questions… (He was interesting since the start)…. But he got more known as “Hum sab Umeed sey “kept making his parodies… they are hilarious.

“Aik Din Geo Key Satth “brought out some very diverse personalities in front of our TV screens, from actress Reema to Naseem Wali Khan, and Wasi Zafar….. and list goes on….  he will go to their homes and interview them in His very Casual way…… His style of interviewing did set a new trend for other anchors…

Pehla Safha @ Sama TV

  Every morning most of our TV channels will show some News analysis done by their experts,…. and why not …… our land is such a breeding ground for News, even entertainment channels can not avoid getting involved in serious programming …  

Pehla Safha is a good presentation and “Paras” as an anchor conducted well…. “Sama TV” has earned a good name regarding social and serious programming in a very short time.

 
 

 

Atiqa O…..some time witty

Atiqa Odho Seems to  get   better at  her comedy effort than her other ventures…. “Atiqa O“is an interesting sitcom…. at times it gets very witty and spontaneous. She looks the part as an experienced actress, play” Atiqa O”…….Still this sitcom needs to get a constant  flow of theme. …………………In matter of sitcoms  ” Nadaniyan ”  at GEO by actors  duo Yasir Nawaz and Nida, is good ….. especially their jingle and brother is hilarious as a a freeloader.

Amor-ay-not Am-ohr!-Talking Ice cream

'We all scream for Ice Cream'

'We all scream for Ice Cream'

With its upbeat, overly colorful (almost psychedelic) ads–‘Amore’ ice cream  attacks not only the eyes but the ears!

I have an issue with the way the brand, Amore, is being pronounced.

As it is spelled A-m-o-r-e–why on earth is it being repeatedly pronounced as Ahm-ohr?!

The proper pronunciation, as this word belongs to the Romance language family–such as  Italian and French– is Ahm-ohr-ay.

I wish the ad firm had done their homework!

—–

Oh and another thing–have you paid attention to how jingle,with corresponding words flashing on screen, talks about a pigeon-kabooter and then some flying? 

What does flying have to do with a new brand of ice cream? or any ice cream , for that matter?

Is there something ‘in’ the icecream that makes one want to fly?  😛

I wonder! 

Note to the lovely people at Amore Icecream: the last bit is a joke–do take it that way 🙂
