missed yet again :(

Re: WILCO

i forgot to watch it..

Re: WILCO

I wached only bits of it.

Re: WILCO

i watched whole...does anyone want me to narrate it to u?

Re: WILCO

drama started with Asim and Amber..Asimis so shocked that Amber GOT the job in his office...so jus to tease her,he gives her alot of work to do. Amber is so very much burdened with this workload,when she starts protesting,he "pretends" to be busy on phone,n tells her to go to her goddamned cabin to finish off the work..wen she leaves,he puts the reciever down n smirks to himself...but i guess Asim,even though he acted well WAS NOT CREATING AN IMPRESSION and amber..oh how baD she acts..she speaks in a way one shouts..and sometime she overacts,like in this scene when she was showing to have been burdened with work n she was trying(in vain)to show that she was exhausted...
the above mentioned scene was damn slow and ye qissa 2 ya 3 scenes me chala tha ...
Humayuon's mom Seemi is again trying to force him to marry wd Aiman but heis just not giving his will..i mean wo nahee maaan raha ...he just says,shaadi ker ke main bandh jaaon ga,jabke mujhay lagta hai keh main kissy aur kaam keh liay paida hua hoon,mera maqsad kuch aur hai...
seemi is so shocked n kinda scared to hear this,..i forgot wt she had said in answer,but in the end ye tey pata hai keh Sarim shaadi ker le ga magar kuch arsay baad..seemi wants to talk to Aiman's mom n grand dad(our dear uncle Raju) but i think Sarim had forbade her..yaar i have forgotten ke us scene me kia hua tha..its 1:44 in the morning here,n just because u guys havent seen the drama im here to explain it tou,taake aap ye na kahian ke Deejah ne kuch bataiya he nahee...mujhay sakht neend aai hai n that is the reason keh drama bhool bhi raha hai...spelling mistakes bhi kar doon ge cos power is gone here n im on laptop,andhere me laptop ki keys mushkil se nazar aatee hain...
ok...back to drama....
Aiman comes back frm the hospital n she's all that quiet n gum Sum..Laila Zuberi or Laila Wasti (watever her name is) asks her abt sarim's mom,she tells her abt seemi n then becomes quiet again,Laila asks her if anything was wrong..she says,"main ne aj Army ka hospital dekha..' she praises it alot n wishes to join Army Corps....here is the scene at which Humayun Saeed n Ahsan Talish made Mistake Of The Century which they havent realized yet but viewers HAVE! i'll tell abt it later/.....
so Raju uncle ne scene me entry di n said,ke tum Army Corps ko zaroor join karo n he even hands over the newspaper to her which had an ad frm Army...
i think that was all of Aiman's part in this episode...
In the village part,wt had happened? i have frgotten but watever it was,it was so dull,boring n non-interesting that haris,even if u DONT know it,it wont matter...lolz...yah yah yah...i remember it now...i remember two scenes,don knw which one came frst..oh yah,i got it now...omg,how much stupid stufff im writing today,neend ne bura haal kia hua hai but i don have strenght to press backspace to delete all that bstupid part im writing..so reead it that way..i can only type now...lolz..ok,where were we? yah yah..village scene...
Beenish Chohan was ill,lying on the charpai,she tells her Hindu frnd that she has sewn a dress fr her fr her marriage,,,,her frnd is happy,but suddenly she askd that her wedding is far away,its not near so y had she sewn it now? Beenish answers,cuz i know iu wont be alive to see ur wedding.....
i think they wanted to show that the poor villagers had probs wd water...omg omg omg...aik to yeh pata nahee kyun main qist ki details batate waqt beech me apna tabsra likhna shuroo ker deti hoon...
ok..now the most intersting part of this rather dull episode..
ZQ/Nimra calls Ahsan Talish...dont jump,ok! this is the same genious Ahsan Talish who directed this drama but in drama,he's acting as a commercial director i tjhink,n he's not that good,dear ahsan talish---ok,i stop my tabsara---Assan Talish by the nameof Javed aka Jav is acting as a director who is full of lust n kinda...aargh...u understand,ryt?
Nimra calls her,n asks fr work..he says,ur voice tells that u have been crying alot..is it because Omer married?..she ignores this question,n asks fr work,he's like..Nimra dear,kaam to bohat hai,tum thar chalo gee?
now u got wt kinda man he is?
in the next scene,all film crew including Ahsan n ZQ r in this bus,heading towards deserts of Thar..in the journey,the conversation takes place ZQ n Ahsan talish was 80% censored..maybe Uncle Raju might tell us that wt was the conversation...but u get the idea that Ahsan was using kinda vulgar language n nimra was finding it offending n she even says that im not a part of ur enjoyment...well,.....wo thar pohanch gay..now im cutting long story short...the villager who wanted to write an application to Pak Army sees em n he takes this application to them so that they convey it to Army..b4 he has arrived,Nimra n ahsan had an argument..nimra objects on vulger n bold dresses but he duznt care abt it...later nimra ki tabbiyat kharab ho rahi hoti hai,her beautician is telling her ke itni sardi me ur wearing this thin dress,just go home,but nimra tells her ke meri kharab tabbyat ka kissy ko na batana...
ZQ gets ready fr the shoot but as she is making her way towards the scene,this villager comes to Ahsan Talish n says that he wants this application fr water to be given to the army ,,,ahsan talish ignores him,and he tells his assistant to get rid of the poor,innocnt guy but as his assistant is pushing him away,ZQ enters the scene n forbids him to do so,then she talks to the poor guy n takes the application frm him,n assures him that she'll give it to Army......
one thing i missed...Adnan siddiqui had come all the way frm his area to his fiance's place to attend this wedding ceremony of her frnd..as they r getting ready fr the function,his fiancee objects on his shalwar qameeez,they quarrel n finally his fiancee says,or rather it slips off her toungue that,"main tumhe is liay shadi me ley kar ja rahe hoon takey tumhe yeh dikha sakoon ke shaadian aisee hotee hain" he is hurt,he had thought that she'd called hm just coz she had loved her frnd so much n now wanted him to attend her marriage but AVTUALLY her intention was different! he says,"u dont need to show me this wedding,cos i cant afford 5000 guests on my wedding..i cant even afford 500" he's angry n is leaving but she controls the situation by saying that,OK lets frget shaadi n do a dinner together...so fr the time being,adnan frgets this...
in the last scene of the drama....Asim comes outta his office,and since it was late eve n evryone in the office had gone except Amber,so he offers to drop her(that old filmi trick---hero boss dropping heroine seceratory)..wen Amber is collecting her things,something catches Asim's eye..this is a photo frame,infact three foto frames of Army ppl,n one soldier's face has been circled wd a thick black marker n written"My Hero" in the other foto,the same guy's head been tagged as "My Best Friend"...Asim looks distastefully towards the picture n this boring n rather slow episode comes to an end!
now,happy guys?

Re: WILCO

did anyone else see this thread and get excited b/c they thought this thread was on the (american) band?

well at least it makes sense why this is in showbiz pakistan :-D

Re: WILCO

yeah i know that WILCO is also name of the famous American Band...
Haris..rytnow im in a lil hurry(bad luck) but will mention abt this WEAKNESS of drama later...

Re: WILCO

okay im back guys!
lets talk abt the MISTAKE Ahsan n Humayun made THROUGHOUT the drama,or which i felt so strongly that i think Hummayun needs to know that this is probably the reason ppl r not liking WILCO as much as they liked Alpha Bravo Charlie...
Do u guys remember Alpha Bravo Charlie or ABC?what was the strongest part of the drama? The Pak Army,of course..throughout the drama they showed Army and its wonderful jobs...in Wilco,they r showing Army and its wonderul jobs too but then,where the hell lies the BIG difference?
let me tell u,my dear GS fellows....i,being a novelist,have been told by all gr8 writers and i have read this sentence over n over in so many Creative-Writing-Manuals that i can neva forget this ONE BASIC POINT...i have been always told that if im writing a story abt a moral value,then neither in the end nor mid nor start,means NOT ONCE in the story i have to write the moral lesson..u get it,guys?....if im writing a moral-lesson-based story then i shud never write the moral lesson in the manuscript...yes,u neva have to "write" moral lesson,u have to "give" it..and there's a big goddamned difference b/w "writing" n "giving"...
i have to show a situation in the novel,and in the end i only have to tell that this thing happened wd this character..i shud neva give reason of the bad or good that happened wd the character..like i show that this young boy abused n beat his classmate and later that day,this boy himself gets hit by a car....shall i write"jaisa karo gay,waisa bharo gay"in the end?if this story has to be written in an Urdu B exam,then i'll write the moral lesson with thick marker in the end,but in a novel,u NEVER write it,u leave this all to the reader to DEDUCE the moral lesson,u leave this to reader to understand wt is the lesson ur giving....that is the difference b/w Alpha Bravo Charlie and WILCO.....Shoaib Mansoor had given the moral lesson,Ahsan Talish has written the line with thick marker,but this is no Urdu B exam...so that is the reason WILCO is not going THAT popular..
u remember,in ABC...tell me if there was a SINGLE SCENE in which any character had said,"Army is very disciplined"...i dnt recall any...now tell me if there's a single scene in WILCO where the characters r NOT saying this sentence?For God's sake,u DONT NEED TO TELLTHIS,JUST SHOW THIS....if u want ppl to believe that Army is disciplined,then SHOW it like shoaib mansoor in ABC did..he showed the Army's system,their culture,n the way of Army Life..and ppl made an opinion theirselves...in WILCO,they r NOT showing it,like when Aiman goes to CMH,they just showed her in this room n then in Brig Dr's office,they NEVA showed the DISCIPLINE of Army hospital..still,in the next scene,Aiman is praising the hospital,so wt is the opinion a viewer makes? something like"they're here to flatter army" or else...
But in the Raju uncle's scenes,he is always getting annoyed cos he cant get hz pension,that was the ryt thing Ahsan talish did..he showed the old man struggling,but when Raju uncle starts PRAISING sarkaari naukri TOO MUCH,thats where it looks like they r WRITING the moral lesson and with a thick marker...
Number 2,they r not showing much of army,they might in the next episodes bt i'll call this Ahsan's bad luck that this drama was made at the time when the Honour of Pak Army has been destroyed..and when ppl no more love Army,so if they KEEP WRITING moral lesson,it'll look like they r trying to make army popular... they shud show it,which they r not...and the army guys shud have been the real army officers,not the actors...instead,they made the army gal as civillian...lolz...
well...if they had showed it,it was far better but still...lets wait and see...

Re: WILCO

YOUR COMMENTS (printout) WILL BE PASSED ON TO HUMAYUN SAEED TONITE AT KARACHI GYMKHANA WHERE I AM HOLDING A DINNER IN HIS HONOR UPON HIS RETURN FROM HEJAZ AFTER PERFORMING HAJJ.


THOUGH I DONT MUCH AGREE WITH QUITE FEW OF YOUR THOUGHTS......HERE!


YOU DONT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "PRIVATE SERVICE" AND "GOVERNMENT SERVICE".....AND ITS NOT YOUR FAULT! YOUR AGE DOESN'T QUALIFIES YOU TO KNOW THAT.....Bacchhay.


Khush Rahein..........

Re: WILCO

no no sir,i KNOW the difference between private service and gov service..wt do u think?i know NOTHING abt Army? hey ,my 2 Uncles r Brig,one General and General Kiyani is my uncle's best frnd ..i have even met General Kiyani..i have seen Army life alot but i NEVER SAID THAT ARMY HAS NO DISCIPLINE...i only said that ur not showing it,ur just showing the civillian life too much that armylife goes in the background...n still they r praising army too much..dont praise it,SHOW it.....shoaib mansoor showed it...if drama is of army,u shud show MUCH of army but here,asim n villager's scenes n ZQ scenes n alotof other scenes DO bore us....cos they r not Army's scenes..we wanna see more n more of army...civallian scenes se drama har doosray dramay ki tarah lagta hai,agar aap is ko munfarid bana naa chahte hain to u shud hav showed MORE N MORE of Army..and uncle,plz give Humayun Bhai congratulations frm all of us GS members!
hey,i know the DIFFERENCE between sarkaari n private naukri...i even said keh jin scenesme raju uncle apni pension ke liay struggle ker rahay thay,wo scenes natural lagtay thay magar jahan aap mussal sil army ko praise karna shuroo kar dete thay wahan ye sab unnatural lagta tha....
