Romance of Ranchoreline

What the hell man? What did they wanna show in this drama? Watching it at the moment so don’t know how it’ll end yet… but I just couldn’t resist opening a thread.

Omg, Qavi just said some vulagar lines to the bhabhi.

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

I tell you what - thats the 1st TV drama Ive watched in about 20 years with so many 'smutty' one liners!!!

Man, I wish to be cracking such 1 liners when I am in my 70s!!!

I was watching with my wife & we were both in disbelief!!!

Times are a changing!

BTW - can someone tell the names of the principal actors & actresses?

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

which channel is it at? can you guys take a break from praising and bashing and give some info :)

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

^ yeah, that would be helpful guys! :p

It was on ARY.

and yeah, I was dumbfounded as well.

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

OK is the title of the drama the title of the thread? what kind of drama is it :/

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

It was a long play on Ary last nite. Repeat time is 4:30-6:30 today (just checked for you guys). I would recomend not to watch it in front of younger kids unless you are ready to explain the word 'sexy' to them and why is a Pakistani drama using this adjective.

Cast included

Shahood Ilvi - guy who kept asking from money from his gf
His GF- Faiza something (girl from burnsroad ki Nilofar)

Qavi- played the flirt old man
Hina Dilpazeer- his sorta gf

Few more actors but don't know their names. Hope that helps.

Yes the play is called 'Romance of Ranchorline'. Ranchorline is a place in Karachi.

Your other question what kinda drama is it...... hmmm pata nahi kis kisam ka drama tha. I couldn't get the point myself. I would say it was entertainment for the crowd that likes the kinda entertainment it carried. Not family oreinted at all and defenitely NOT something you'd expect from a Paskistani channel.

^ Or, perhaps, they just wanted us to have a glimpse of what is actually going on in the society these days.

I haven't been to Karachi for the past 8 years now but from what I have seen, read, and heard, the drama was more or less a portrayal of the horrifying state Pakistani society is in right now. Inflation rates that are downright out of control, increasing poverty, lack of quality education, obsession with chichore star plus dramas that make women believe life is nothing if it's not heavily laced with romance, love, and sexuality, are the stimuli for such a desperate state. There are so very many problems and issues and not even one good solution. I actually felt sad when drama ended.

wow ok… thats too much! I think even Hum tv havent got that far and ARY showed this??? What is this leading to :bummer:

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

QAVI :eek:
omg i cant believe it

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

I think the acting is superb and it's quite comedic.

If anything, they are showing how easy it is to manipulate people and take advantage of them.

I don't see what the big hoopala is.

The point of the drama was to illustrate how incredibly selfish and users people can be ... and the lengths they will go to to manipulate others in order to get what they want. It happens all the time. The girlfriend the son was stealing for ... the man who was using the two sisters to finance his life ... it happens. People are gullible and fall for this all the time. It's a reality.

Qavi was saying all that stuff cause he's a predator. That was the role he was playing. He was a sexual predator who preyed on women and women fell for it cause he had the big flashy car and had money. I can understand why some people were uncomfortable watching it, but he was playing a certain role which does exist.

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

I wanna see it. It's not on youtube yet...

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

Everything they showed DOES happen, but to see all three women from the same family drooling over men the way they did, was kinda disgusting to watch.

The dialogues said by Qavi ..... just wasn't expecting that shown in a Pakistani drama.

In general I have very liberal views as far as what's shown by the media, but this just didn't cut it for me.

Ps: I am not criticizing Qavi or any of the other actors (they did a great job with their acting). I am not even against the concept of this drama. It's just the dialogues that made it so disgusting!

Re: Romance of Ranchoreline

PCG, I doubt it's on YT yet.
