Most guppies in here probably know about this, but this a nice suggestion for the ones who don’t.
There is a great music site (muziq.net) where you can watch brand new pakistani music videos, unlike ptv.
I just finished watching Dil Mange by Junaid Jamshed and looks fantastic.
Also watched Tu Hay Kahan by JJ, Strings and Haaron, and a great cricket video, better than Lagaan, good cameo apperances by Wasim Akram, Razzaq and Imran Nazir.
If you have 56k or above, you are going to love it.
Note to mods, Iam not providing any links to another Pakistani message boards or anyhting that will harm gupshup, so please don’t erase my post.
Thank You!
Are u kidding me? Well, maybe I haven't seen what PTV is like these days in Pakistan, but Prime is waay better than what I last saw of PTV in Pakistan.
I haven't seen Pakistani PTV in the past 3 years as well but compared to what is being shown in the Indian channels, PTV in Pak is doing a really good job, one of my cousins just recorded bunch of JJ and other Pakistani videos on vhs and sent it here in U.S, so far I haven't seen any of those songs on Prime TV.
Gudia, I disagree... Say what you like, but I have seen all versions of the PTV, and to be honest, ours (the Pakistani one) is really very very good.
They have a great history. Apart from the khabarnama, they rule!!
Sports, they always show live matches, wimbledons, world cups etc
Music, no one covers the pakistani scene as good as they do. These songs that umair was referring to, I saw them so long ago on the real PTV.
Dramas Serials, I dont need to elaborate, they simply rule!
In the past they had been showing english series as they were running. For example they showed Star Trek (1968) when it was actually being aired on CBS. Same is the case for Star Trek the next generation. When I was little I used to watch air wolf, knight rider, fall guy, everything that was famous at that time.
The comedy programmes have always been good, 50-50, 3/3, family front etc
Maybe its because in the 80s we only had one channel to fullfill our comedy/sports/serials/news needs it turned out to be such a good amalgam
Better than all sporting Pakistani/Indian music videos!!!
If memory serves me correctly, its got Junaid Jamshed, Strings (kapadia and bilal), Haroon, couple of other famous singing names, Wasim Akram, Razaq, Imran Nazir, Inzi... Its about a boy playing in the streets of Pakistan, ends up losing everytime against a bunch of bullies. He doesnt give up, is trained by Akram and co, and ends up defeating the other team. The video was brilliant.
