Umm e Kulsoom

Who is following this drama? It looks good so far. Three episodes have aired.

"a story of transition of a lower middle class girl, “umm-e-kulsoom” from being virtuous and austere to become glamorous and flamboyant. when the only constant in life is her bad fate and everything else is changing. initially umm-e-kulsoom was in love with her cousin moosa, who become crippled for life by the virtue of an accident and since then misunderstandings arrive amongst the two. capitalizing the scenario, her brother’s wife, force her to marry arham, who proves out to be a psycho just after marriage and then comes nihal in the life of umm-e-kulsoom; a filthy rich lad with deceptive appearance. soon after the marriage of nihal and umm-e-kulsoom, nihal reveals his real self and force umm-e-kulsoom to forgo her religious beliefs and rituals. and ultimately umm-e-kulsoom, who was known for her mesmerizing quranic recitation, turns out to be a singer of national repute. "

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

love this drama.

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

i ve read this novel so not enjoying watching this drama . As far as i remember in the novel there is no brother of um-e-kulsoom i think they changed the story.

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^^ is the novel online Gemini?

I am looking forward to seeing what happens once she switches over to being a famous singer. Will it follow the Abdul Qadir route or will it be different. I enjoyed MAQH so main idea here is also quite intriguing.

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

Episode 4 was interesting! They story is moving forward quickly, which is great. I hate it when they drag storylines.

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

i dont know about the availability of novel online cuz i read it in digest.who is playing the role of ume-e-kulsoom's husband? faisal quereshi?

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

faisal qureshi faisal qureshi faisal qureshi...amina amina amina amina....

why have we run out of new faces?:S

babar javed prod needs to take some break....most of their stories are somehow aik jaisi...:S

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^ BJ would never take a break LOL!! I don't know how he can direct the same people over and over again in similar types of roles - does he not get bored?!?

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

just saw the latest episode. Dont know what to think. Poor girl!

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

Jab tak sahi perform nahin karenge tab tak nae serials ke naam per retakes on air hote rahen ge. You know how perfectionist our dear Babar Javed is regarding his pet artists' work!

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^^ Thanks Muq!

Faisal is a GREAT actor no doubt about it but he seriously needs to stop being in every 3rd production that is on air. And stop being in EVERY A&B production - Geez!

Amina is learning. One of the cooking wali aunties on tv compared her to Samita Patel lol and I thought boy she's really stretching her imagination!

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^Aamina is good but she has the same problem as with Faisal (over exposure). If Aamina is learning, she should frequently take some acting classes instead of checking our 'Sabr' in every 3rd drama.

btw, at times, Aamina resembles a lot with Khalida Riyasat. I mean in style & looks.

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^ sorry I can't compare her to great actresses. She's quite natural in her performances than the other boring lot that we see in every other drama these days but boy does she have a long way to go!

Re: Umm e Kulsoom

^ She ,of course, has to work a lot to reach that level, but she is promising. I like her work but over-exposure....
