Samandar was inspired from Count of Monte Christo? I heard critics saying it was inspired from Punjabi movies. lols. Dumas ki rooh taRap gai hogi

Ashfaq Ahmed’s ‘Fehmida ki Kahnai, Ustani Rahant ki Zubani’ is a gem. a complete team effort beautiful script, flawless direction of MNH and memorable performance of Begum Khursheed Shahid (especially the last scene).

Bano Qudsia’s Kallo was dramatised by Neelam Ahmed Bashir (Bushra Ansari’s sister).

Haft Aasman was by Hameed Kashmiri, who had on his credit serials like Shikast e Aarzoo, Padash, Dharas, etc. A brilliant writer indeed.

yes samandar was inspired by Count of monte cristo my cousin met with amjad islam amjad in punjab university (he came to visit) and he admitted that.

kallo was dramatised by neelam ahmed bashir but credit is always for bano qudsia, Fehmida ki kahani… is a masterpiece no doubt.

younis javed for andhera ujala and long play dhoop deewar (very nice script).

hahaha, actually what i think no doubt she penned the scenes but those scenes (especially the comic ones) were directed with so much perfection that credit goes to directors, not many directors can handle comic situtations as showman and mohsin ali did in unkahi.

yes i agree like marina khan told in her interview that she could not cry in one scene in Tanhayian(when zara did not come for her birthday party) and how shehzad khalil told her that he had whacked an actress before to make her cry and marina certainly did not want that.Directors were great back then!

Amjad Islam also dramatised Bano Qudsia's Amar Bail (Resham, Abid Ali) and Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi's 'Ihsan' (Arifa Siddiqui, Azmul Haq)

Do watch Sitara aur mehrunisa. Its a mini serial (6 episodes) filled with powerful performances by Sania Saeed, Anwar Maqsood, zra Sherwani, Sajid Hassan and Atiqa Odho.

Anwar Maqsood's 'Daur e Junoon' and 'Mirza and Sons' are also classics.

Nirma was good in that role i think. Probably there was some casting issues and the drama was stopped in between to re-shoot and started from episode-1.

Ankahi had many funny scenes. One that I liked (dialogue-wise) was when Shehnaz Shaikh came for interview and her application was something like ‘Dekh tera kia haal kardia, khushboo ka jhonka tere sang kar dia.. mera Naam Robinhood hai aur main jungle main rehta hoon’.

Re: Tribute to Pakistani Drama Writers

The dinning table scene of unkahi and when timmy's (jamshed ansari) mother came to know that his son is working as a butler in sana's house.
