Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
*Mahira looks really pretty at times and at times she looks just as weird...wonder why? *
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar

Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
Thanks for reminding. Just find this link and now watching
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
I really like the drama. Well done Mehreen.
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
omg im so excited abt this!
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
Really enjoyed Deepti’s character. It’s good to see her in this role which is a departure from her sad, brooding roles that she usually ends up with.
Mahira surprised me. I wasn’t expecting her to be able to act at all but not bad for a first timer :k:
I wish Fawad would have gotten the visa for this drama. I am bored of seeing Humayun.
LOL @ Mehreen’s cameo ![]()
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
i liked it, but don't know got the feeling that the characters of mahira and deepti could have been reversed...mahira might have been bit better suited as the out of work, slightly ditzy struggling actress, deepti seems too mature for the role. maybe not...lets see, just an initial impression
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
^ completely agree with your observation. btw I am curious who translated the script from english to urdu? dialogues seem a little "too translated" at times
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
Had a feeling of deja vu with the first episode. Too many similarities with Malaal perhaps: Background of wintry New York, coffee with friends in cafes, Deepti living alone in an apartment and looking for a new place...
Also, I'm not too sure about Humayun Saeed. The role of an illegal immigrant, who obviously has an unsettled career and has a university going girlfriend needed to be played by a youngish actor. A forty something Humayun Saeed dressed up as if he works on wall street and not in a desi's office did not help either...
I also wonder if the ordinary pakistani viewer is sophisticated enough to understand the casually mentioned girlfriend/boyfriend relationship. After watching the first 10 minutes or so one is still left guessing what the relationship is between Mahira and Humayun. Are they married or are they co habitating. I think the line is cetainly blurred. I wonder if this was intentional on Mehreen's part. Maybe she could answer it..
Having said all the above, I did actually enjoy Mahira's acting, she is good for a beginner. And Deepti's light hearted acting was good to watch too. oh yeah I also like Mehreen's cameos a la Hitchcock!:)
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
impressive acting by Mahira
but why humayun with her?? he looks old in his recent dramas
also can someone tell me whats the story...as i have just watched the promos, not the episodes
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
Mahira is looking absolutely gorgeous even in very minimal makeup MashAllah - beautiful lady!
Re: Neeyat by Mehreen Jabbar
Didn't care for this week's episode. Some things also feel like a bit of a stretch- humayun saeed paying 3k to deepti gupta and being able to afford a huge apartment despite being jobless. kher let's see how it goes
