Cast and Characters

Roughly in the order of appearance

Saba Qamar as Jahan Aara aka Gigi (More like Jiji, but I like Gigi)

The landlord, the puzzle herself. She is loaded. Has a few properties on rent, and she makes designer cakes that go for a fortune.

Nimra Shahid as Asiya

Jahan Aara’s househelp and/or confidant

Nabeel Zuberi as Zeeshan

Jahan Aara’s tenant, clearly smitten by her beauty and aura.

Mahnoor Malik

Zeeshan’s wife and by extension Jahan Aara’s tenant. She was Zeeshan’s cousin and has completely transformed herself to please her husband, but Zeeshan ka dil hai ki maanta nahin. She’s expecting, btw. Maybe a loss-moment in future.

Hassan Fareed as Ashiq Hussain

Jahan Aara’s driver, male house help or sorts. Asiya’s husband? He seems like he’s after Jahan Aara’s monies.

Anjum Habibi as Advocate Shakeel

Jahan Aara’s wakeel who gets work constantly, like kicking out problematic tenants, helping with divorces, etc.

Ali Ansari as Junaid

Another tenant after Zeeshan

Anoushay Abbasi as Mahira

Junaid’s wife. She seems smart and all, but will she suffer the same fate as Zara? We’ll see.

Syed Jibran as Sarmad Shahzaib

Jahan Aara’s (ex?) husband who has tortured Jahan Aara mentally and physically, so much so that she still feels the slab awake or asleep.

Usman Mukhtar as Shanu

Presumably Jahan Aara’s maashooq and perhaps cousin, too. Interesting hairstyle on him. I am eagerly waiting for his appearance. One of my favourite leading men in dramas.

Anwar

He’s generally referred to as Pili Kothi wala Anwar, what Ashiq is to Jahan Aara. Anwar is the primary source of spreading gossips. And, he has the audacity to still come to Jahan Aara’s house, and show attribute in third episode. It was so funny.

Naveed/Nabeel

Jahan Aara’s accomplice and appears in many roles: Delivery boy, electrician, majzoob, fixing the mirror… Jahan Aara’s only confidant, I’d say.

Mohammad Ahmad

Jahan Aara’s father

Asma Abbas

Jahan Aara’s mother

Sarfaraz

Jahan Aara’s brother

His expression with parents:

 

His expression with his wife:

Bhabhi

Jahan Aara’s sister-in-law

Zara’s father

He knows what’s right and what’s wrong, but being a good father, he supports Zara in her decisions.

Zara’s mother

Means well, but is very indulgent with her thoughts and words, ends up hurting Zara, but she ain’t wrong.

Hina Rizvi

Mahira’s mother

Mahira’s father

Khala

Junaid’s mother, Mahira’s Khala

Shahzad Sheikh

Presumably the guy who will fix Jahan Aara because he’s wearing white in the poster, didn’t you notice?

Maria Wasti

 

Ahin Babar
