PS: I’m not happy with the screenshot but it was the best I could do. I haven’t brought my headphones here (I’m in Pune) and can’t watch the usual way (on my android phone) so had to watch on laptop and it wasn’t behaving nicely.
A new drama by Umera Ahmed. That’s all I want to say.

Dar-e-Nijaat Episode 17 Written Update And Review
Aby Bakar’s Dilemma
Okay, so Abu Bakar is upset to see the pics, which Kushbakht also notices. On the other hand, Hamna and Zamil are both restless and sleepless.
Zamil seeks Arham’s opinion cryptically. Basically, he thinks that he’ll do a good deed by telling Abu Bakar about Zaryab and him.
Zamil reaches Abu Bakar’s office to meet him. Meeting is important, Abu bakar knows.

Zaryab’s BS
Kishwar Jahan: Wahm shaitaan hota hai. shaitaan bahot khatarnaak. woh wahan bhatkaata hai jahan usey gumaan bhi nahin hota.
This dadi will spend her entire life correcting Zaryab, it seems.

Two Types of Muslims
Zamil tries to impress Abu Bakar. Abu Bakar is like: STBU.
Zamil: Phir toh tum beyghairat huye.
Abu Bakar: Meri tumhari ghairat ki definition bahot mukhtalif hai, thik usi tarah meri tumhari islam ki definition bahot mukhtalif hai.
And then Zamil shows how low his thinking can be. And then Abu Bakar kicks Zamil out of his office. The face-off was sooooooo good. Two layered characters, two fine actors.
Z&Z
Zamil sends a message to Zaryab: Main tum se dusri shaadi kar lunga.
And then another. Hamna overhears the second message.
So this time, Zaryab responds.
Zaryab: Shaam ko nikaah hai mera. Apni biwi ko talaaq de kar aa jao.
The conversation continues, we hear the same line twice, once the character says it, then the other character plays it on the phone. Arey baba kahe lapaa rahe ho.
And the whole conversation Hamna is listening to.
The drama continues… and the episode ends just as Abu Bakar is readying to go for nikaah but Zamil isn’t done yet. He forwards Zaryab’s voice message where she’s asking Zamil to come to marry her.
Ruko ab next week tak.
All said and done, drama has good pace and some fine performances.

By the way, Arham ki daadhi nahin hai, Abu Bakar ki bhi nahin. Kaise praciticing muslims hain yeh dono? Shamsa looks a lot like Faryal in this nikaah scene. Good casting.
Until we meet again, check out my books on Amazon. You can subscribe for Kindle Unlimited for free for the first month, just saying 🙂
Shabana Mukhtar
Thoda slow nahi tha yeh week? I am a little tired of saba hameeds preachy behaviour. What noor? And how does she decide who is noorani and not? God these religious nuts i tell you! You know we muslims really overdo this noorani stuff and all. Lol. They dont realise it can turn off the non muslims about islam. On another note are you not reviewing Gulbahar? Sanam saeed is stunning as usual and her styling is awesome. Such a refreshing change from zeba and kashaf.
Yeah, I have my issues with kishwar Jahan and I have decided to not let it get to me. Not just this particular character, I feel that the writer is trying to shove a particular narrative down our throat which I don’t necessarily agree with in the first place.
Gulbahar posts are in the works. I watched first two episodes, loved Sanam as always but the storyline seemed predictable, done to death types. So haven’t watched this week’s episodes yet. Sanam and Komal seem like such a contrast, personality or acting style wise. I’m watching Komal in Raqaas, and Diya from Gulbahar felt like an extension of Urooj from Raqaas. I’d err in Sanam’s favour eventually🙂
