Yes. Zara si Aurat was a wonderful piece of work from Noor ul Huda Shah and Sutana Siddiqui (Marvi team). Bushra Ansari played role of a woman who take blame of murder by her husband (Shafi M Shah), who in turn marry another woman during her imprisonment. nice acting by all. (Zara si Aurat is available at Rainbow Center)

Neeli Dhoop penned by Bushra Ansari (her first drama as a writer) was briliantly directed by Iqbal Ansari. Taking the issue of marriage by an old woman having married daughter with children in 90’s was quite controversial. Although the thinking has not changed much also depicted in ‘Kitni girhen baqi hain’ *ing: Rubina Ashraf.

Hairat Kada was a beautiully written series by Ashfaq Ahmed. Sona Mila na pi mile is also my favourite. all the actors performed very well especially Nabeel, the girl playing role of Sooban, and Seemi Raheel did memorable role of Mai Jeevni after Basanti of Khwahish.

Did you watch series Bandgali of Ashfaq Ahmed. Heard lot about ‘Mama Seemi’ *ing Saba Pervez and Farooq Zameer.

YUP all great plays.

bandgali? the name sounds fimiliar but cant recall it at the moment…shayd dekhne pe yaad ajaye.

mama seemi was another excellent play…saba, farooque zameer, the kid and waseem abbas all acted well. i remember i used to have it on vhs.

do u remember another play (mid 90s) of saba hameed, waseem abbass, firdous jamal, samina ahmed and mehmood aslam where saba and waseem are hubby and wife and waseem kills her because of doubting that she was having an affair but infact saba had some psychological problems due to which she wasnot exactly paying attention to her married life. samina played her mother…mehmood was the writer in the drama and firdous is the lawyer who fights the murder case for waseem. i think waseem tries to prevent that he has some mental problems thats why the murder happened and firdous believes it and tries to prove that he was ill but comes to know about it later on. i just cant seem to remember this drama’s name. this drama had a BEAUTIFUL song called “koi khwaab hai ya saraab hai” sung by shabam majeed.
