Umrao Jaan on Geo

yeah very interesting ending and gripping story

Sadzzz,

So what if Rekha is sanwli? Her dancing in the Indian version was a phenom. Plus do you know that she is a tamilian who started her film career with no knowledge of urdu and watch the way she speaks it in the movie. Also this one man's opinion, she is a real eye candy!

Funguy,

Agreed with you 100%. We desis are the worse racists. We have a spectrum of racism from total gora desis to toal kala desis. We are an equal opportunity racist people, no?

Oh my goodness, she gets raped? One tragedy after another with this girl. :bummer: Does anybody know if they repeat this at all during the week?

Arvind, Sadzzz comment about Rekha being sanwali was not meant as a put-down.

no it's not repeated, sorry.

Why not??????????????

If they can repeat that thigga guy's show "Aaj Kaamran Khan Kay Saath" and chish-maaToo's "Capital Talk" and Moonchoo's "Chota moo buri baat" and that always complaining "Pachaas minute"...then why not Umrao Meri Jaan Adaa?.

Oh well, that's OK. I couldn't have put up with a desi rape scene anyway.

:hehe:

they do repeat it. the previous week's episode (I think) comes on Saturday nights at 11ish pm.

Excellent! I will try and catch it next weekend.

What man wouldn't like to put-down Rekha!

You meant 'pin down'? No, I wouldn't. Prolly during her 'Silisila' days.

i think i better buy Geo by next saturday :blush:

sam bhia.. i wont say that this drama is better than tanhayaan alpha bravo charlie.. but i must say… its one of the best drama i have seen in recent time… :k:

your dad seems to live on a bubble world. thank god i have liberal parents.

don't be an idiot. I am sure her dad said that with a tongue in cheek mazaaq.

Confettiguy,

Disagree with you. We desis have always preferred gora chamda ove sanwla or worse still kala. We may not want to admit it but did you see Mississippi Masala? What does Denzel Washington say in the movie?

Last week’s episode is on tonight at 11:30 on Geo if anybody missed it. :hula:

mehnaz can u please tell me what will happen tommorow..

cuz we didnt get GEO yet…:bummer:

so wat happened in yesterday's episode..anyone plz

Briefly:

Yesterday, it started off with her all in shock of what just happened. She finds the black thread on the bed and realises who it was that raped her. She feels dirty and pours water all over herself. That scene was very well shot.

The next morning, Bua Hussaini and Maulvi Sahib are crying. Busra Ansari is there and figures out who it must have been who raped her. Nobody confronts him though as he is the house pimp and they need him to bring in the customers. He comes to visit Umrao and Bua Hussaini tells him to get stuffed. They all know it was him. Umrao is completely disgusted with him and he is embarrased, but doesn’t admit to what he did. He figures she must know it was him.

Umrao tries to move on. Busra Ansari arranges for Umrao to start singing in public. She is having her daughter, Bismillah, and Umrao take singing lessons. Bismillah is a brat … mother daughter relationship is interesting … she is really jealous of Umrao, but has a rich man of her own so that keeps her occupied.

It ended with Busra Ansari’s character arranging for Umrao to dance and sing in public for the first time at some rich dude’s house. He’s really hot! I figure he will be her love interest. :love:

he’s only 14. so, go easy on him. :-p
