Re: Sarmad Sultan’s new drama ‘Jal Pari’
LOL, yes I also shuddered at that top! Somehow I don’t think they actually planned it that way, maybe unintentionally it does fit in with the story of a girl who has just discovered western clothes. It is quite likely that it is indeed Neelam’s own wardrobe as RukhsarBibi mentioned.
I find women in Pakistan who wear western clothes to work can’t distinguish between ‘formal work wear’ and ‘beach/nightclub wear’! Sara from Humsafar is also another case in point. Some of the clothes these girls wear would be considered inappropriate office wear in the west!
I also think people in Pakistan have a distorted view of what it means to be ‘modern’. Some of the clothes these girls wear would be considered tacky and not decent even by western standards.
