Featured: A Review of the Pakistani Drama “Habs”

The Story Habs is an Urdu word meaning Isolation (read as Ha-bus). The main characters in Habs are Ayesha (Ushna Shah) and Basit (Feroze Khan). Ayesha was depicted as a practical young woman who always spoke her mind. Saba Faisal, her mother, is a widow and opportunist who prioritizes survival above all else. From the beginning, she prioritizes her own happiness over that of her daughters.…

January Wrap-up 🩵 | 2024

well, i did end up reading some of the books i posted on my tbr list, and i consider that a success!!

Books:

Daughter of the Moon Goddess: 4.5/5 🌟

this coulda been a perfect five star read, but the flippty-flip-floppity between the boys till the last page was too much for me, so i deducted a half star!! still, this was a great read!

Check & Mate: 3.5/5 🌟

read my review in the post below!!

Komi Can’t Communicate (Vol. 19): 3.5/5 🌟

again, i live, love, laugh komi, rumiko, and tadano!

this was my first reread of the year, and the first time i reread this book since 2014. i was pleasantly impressed by the fact that it stood the test of time and my vastly different reading taste!

Squire: 3.5/5 🌟

i loved everything about this book: the art style, the story, the characters!! i especially loved the fact that the authors decided to explore a story inspired by ottoman ruled levant as that’s a period we don’t have many stories from!

With the Fire on High: 4/5 🌟

what can i say? i’ll read anything acevedo writes, narrates!!! 😍

Between the Lines: Facial Tattoos and the Chaouia: 4/5 🌟

this didn’t offer me any new information as i am a chaouia and my nan has similar tattoos to the women featured in the article. however, it is a very informative and short read if you’re uneducated on facial tattooing practices by the indigenous people of north africa!

The crown season 5 is messy 

If you haven’t seen it. I am warning you this review contains spoilers to the 5th season.

Very soapy 

The breath of anticipation is over Netflix’s hit show the crown released its 5th season. Following the royals in the disastrous era of the 90s. Though the show time and time again has offered high equality and captivating stories. All of this falls flat; rather we get a season constructed like a poorly written soap opera with weird dialogues and heavy handed metaphors. It seems Peter Morgen threw out good writing and storytelling for the sake of making season 5 dramatic and spicy. Over emphasizing the disastrous marriage of Charles and Diana leaving little room of other meaningful stories of the royals during the 90s. 

Diana's portrayal was questionable ?

Though Elizabeth Debicki manages to resurrect the princess of Wales through her accent and mannerisms. The writers instead of presenting Diana trying to find the light in the darkness. They concoct a story of a woman seeking to destroy everything in her path and raise a middle finger to the royals and the institution. In term purposefully giving heartache to her children who are members of the institution. Considering the fact many describe the princess of Wales being a good and caring mother. The writing and depiction seems to throw it all away for Drama! Even making the wrong and gross assertion she has a fetish for Pakistani men with the man playing Martin Bashir saying "haven't you notice she's got a thing for Pakistanis" Though Diana developed a special place for Pakistan it was not sensual in nature. Previous seasons have managed to balance fiction and reality with storylines and characters. This season seems to want to find cheap ways to make drama rather than following the precedent set by previous seasons.

Just to be clear most Muslim world isn't even following the boycott, I'm Pakistani and I've seen McDonalds and KFC full all the time even at 2am...

Sometimes trends have an effect on the ppl who follow the idols on social media but generally the earning fan who pays for the tickets and buy merch don't have time for fanfights and struggles of ppl on the other side of the world.

I personally am not eating McDonald's but my niece who is my responsibility eats it. Also idols have no real value in international media so why would a Korean popstar promoting a charity burger hurt the cause...

Btw I've seen more sea fans not happy with the schedule but most are still posting him, the loudest ones weren't ever his fans so it shouldn't matter.

P.S. the Indonesian fans got pissed on the Korean fans and not the idol, one should never down play the superiority complex most Koreans have as if not 30 years back they were worse than most ppl they lolz at now

The racism and sarcasm made them demand the concert be cancelled and ultimately Korean fans started talking about indofans being terrorists.

In this whole situation I was just reminded the shit Koreans used to say, thanks to K-pop becoming global just made me forget it

As for unfollowing, I kind of disagree with you. Sometimes it's better to leave an idol or band then make drama. If they're over doyoung it's better for all that they leave. Everyone is allowed to like or hate stuff...

P.S. the doyoung shirt offended me more than the whole McDonald's situation... Mary and Jesus are very important individuals in islam and I hate it when ppl do shit like this (this is why I hate liberals being anti Christians too)

-------------

IG. It was not the point. (And not the case, Doyoung's situation is not even Lucas' situation). Unsubscribing might bring people you described peace of mind, but it won't change the fact that they changed their opinion about a good person due to the pressure from the masses, him being labeled "bad", and nothing else. It's like those fans who ask if the new to them idol "did anything controversial?" before deciding to stan. Or hating an author of a book without actually reading it only because of a bad review from a person who also didn't read the book "but heard it's problematic". Delegating thinking to the others, following someone else's opinion and judgement.

No but actually, your assessment of how people lack appreciation for nuances in dramas is so true. It’s not just acting; people can’t appreciate subtleties in writing, either. People always complain of Saas-bahu dramas yet they can’t handle anything besides the overt nature of good Vs evil.

Mein is a good, recent example. Mubashira is — for Pakistani TV standards — a sort of well-written character with bipolar disorder. I say this as someone in the medical field and with family members with BPD. Ayeza has even said mubashira has BPD, but if you read the comments the majority of people are saying Ayeza is “overacting”. Like no bro she’s not overacting (imagine saying Ayeza khan can’t act lolol) she’s having manic episodes, and pretty good ones for PTV standards, but people aren’t willing to appreciate how much work she has put into this character because this character can’t easily be boxed into a category. (To be clear the writing of mubashira isn’t totally flawless like they confused a psychiatrist for a therapist but again it’s the best I’ve seen)

Slightly related but wahaj recently wore a pink Kurta for his MayaPret shoot and the comments under there are filled with demasculinizing wahaj, and this is coming from all genders. Like appreciating nuances are one thing. We have a longgggg way to go if men are still made fun of for wearing pink.

you said it. from what I have observed in terms of how acting is termed by the reviewers as "good" or "bad" very basically falls under the description of, "was it obvious?" even then it has to be obvious at just the right decibel. otherwise it's loud and overacting.

another thing that is often not taken into consideration is how much of a say TPTB have about how a project is executed. i know for a fact that different directors demand different kinds of acting from the actors. some directors specifically WANT the loudness because to them that's how a particular emotion will be best show on screen. some directors go for the subtlety. some want silence to do its job while the actor just occupies the space. and there are cases where the directors are instructed by the channel heads to shoot the project on a certain frequency. no project is made in a vacuum. there are so many decision makers operating behind the doors whose names we don't even know. we only see and react to what we have access to.

khair, acting is an art and while it can be studied and critiqued, there's no set-in-stone parameter by which we can judge its quality. or you can if you really want to but god i am just so tired by life in general to want to get into all that. so, I just stick to the very basic rule for judging an acting performance - did it move me? if yes, then it's a good acting performance. if not then bhale hi uss insaan ko laakhon oscar kyun na mile ho, for me it will never be good. for instance, Iqra Aziz was the best part of Ranjha Ranjha Kardi even if Imran Ashraf continues to make Bhola his entire personality. i won't sit and argue with anyone about it - that's just how my heart works.

AND OMG YES PLS TELL ME ABOUT HOW *FINE* WAHAJ LOOKS IN PINK?!?!?! THE MAN CARRIED THE COLOR BEAUTIFULLY!! SUCH A WELCOME BREAK FROM ALL THE MONOTONY OF BLACK&WHITE!!! FUCK ALL THE HATERS! HE'S A BEAUTIFUL MAN AND THE SOFTNESS OF THAT PINK WITH HIS UNDENIABLE CHARM CREATED AN ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL PICTURE!!! the ones hating on him are only jealous cuz they know they cannot carry the color well.

Introduction to Meri Shehzadi Meri Shehzadi looks like a typical Pakistani political story, specially at this critical time of politics.

Tiger 3: The Blockbuster Sequel Roaring into Cinemas

In the world of Bollywood, there are few film franchises as iconic and beloved as the "Tiger" series. Starring two of India's biggest superstars, Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, these espionage thrillers have consistently set the box office on fire and left audiences craving for more. "Tiger 3 Movie," the third installment in the series, promises to be a cinematic extravaganza that will not only continue the legacy but also take it to new heights.

The Tiger Saga - A Quick Recap:

The "Tiger" series, produced by Yash Raj Films, began with "Ek Tha Tiger" in 2012, directed by Kabir Khan. The film introduced us to Tiger (Salman Khan), an Indian spy, and Zoya (Katrina Kaif), a Pakistani spy. The movie was a massive hit, not only for its action-packed sequences but also for the sizzling chemistry between the lead pair.

The sequel, "Tiger Zinda Hai" (2017), directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, continued the story of Tiger and Zoya as they undertook a daring rescue mission. The film was not only a critical success but also a box office juggernaut, cementing the "Tiger" franchise's place in Bollywood history.

Tiger 3" - What We Know So Far:

"Tiger 3" has generated tremendous buzz even before its release, thanks to its stellar cast, intriguing plot, and high production values. Here's a glimpse of what we know about the film:

 Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif Return: The dynamic duo of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif reprise their roles as Tiger and Zoya. Their on-screen chemistry has been a highlight of the series, and fans are eagerly anticipating their reunion.

A Global Espionage Thriller: "Trailer of Tiger 3 Movie" is expected to take the espionage thriller to an international level. With shoot locations in countries like Turkey, Austria, and Russia, the film promises breathtaking action sequences and stunning visuals.

High-Octane Action: Like its predecessors, "Tiger 3 Movie Review" is expected to be packed with adrenaline-pumping action sequences. Salman Khan is known for his daredevil stunts, and fans can look forward to some jaw-dropping action moments.

A New Director: While Kabir Khan and Ali Abbas Zafar directed the first two installments, "Tiger 3" will be helmed by Maneesh Sharma. Sharma, known for films like "Band Baaja Baaraat" and "Shuddh Desi Romance," brings his directorial flair to the franchise.

An Intriguing Plot: While the plot of "Tiger 3" has been kept under wraps, rumors suggest that it will involve a mission that takes Tiger and Zoya on a globe-trotting adventure. The story is expected to be a blend of action, suspense, and drama.

The Antagonist: No action film is complete without a formidable antagonist. In "Tiger 3," the talented actor Emraan Hashmi is set to play the role of the villain. His inclusion has added an extra layer of excitement to the film.

 Spectacular Music: The "Tiger" series has a history of chart-topping music, and "Tiger 3" is expected to continue this tradition with its soundtrack.

The Expectations:

As "Tiger 3" roars into cinemas, the expectations are sky-high. The franchise has a massive fan following, and each installment has managed to raise the bar in terms of action and entertainment. With the addition of new director Maneesh Sharma and the casting of Emraan Hashmi as the antagonist, the film has created substantial anticipation.

Gadar “The Rebellion”: Part 2 (2023) -- The Return Of “HINDUSTAN ZINDABAAD!”

The Lion prowls once again, not in the jungles, but in Pakistan! After 22 years, the rebellion returns to the Bollywood big screens with “Gadar 2: The Katha Continues”. The Gadar film series is a brand in India and I am here to review the sequel to the 2001 mega-blockbuster which was released on August 11, 2023. Written by Shaktimaan Talwar, and produced and directed by Anil Sharma, Gadar 2 stars “The Star With 2.5 Kg Biceps”, Sunny Deol as the legendary Tara Singh. Gadar 2 (2023): Starring Sunny Deol As Tara Singh! https://youtu.be/4Rklb7IY8F0 Watch Gadar 2 to witness the rampage of Tara Singh in Pakistan once again, this time, not for his wife, but for his son! Click here to check out my narration of the epic periodic action-drama Gadar (2001): Ek Prem Katha! Gadar 2 (2023) Official Trailer: https://youtu.be/vhwr4vc_GY0 The Good: Tara Singh needs no introduction! If you don’t know who the legendary Tara Singh is, then you cannot be addressed as a Bollywood fan! Sunny Deol, the He-Man of Bollywood, who has been known to beat up the scariest and the deadliest villains in his action movies, brings the character of Tara Singh back to life in Gadar 2! Sunny Deol has aged a lot and is now 66 years old. But still, he has managed to live up to the vigor and valor of the character of Tara Singh at this age. The amusing fact is that Utkarsh Sharma who was in Gadar (2001), then a kid and now all grown up, was supposed to be the hero in Gadar 2. But who can have the personality or power to overshadow Sunny Deol? In every movie of Sunny Deol, he comes like a roaring lion with his violent dialogue delivery and demolishes every villain with blows of his massive fists. He did the same in Gadar 2. Manish Wadhwa plays the lead antagonist in this Gadar sequel. His character of Pakistani Major General Hamid Iqbal was intriguing as well as intimidating. I truly missed the late veteran actor Amrish Puri who was the lead antagonist in Gadar (2001). Honestly, there cannot be a villain ever who can match up to his legacy. Ameesha Patel, who was the lead actress in Gadar (2001), convincingly reprised her role as Tara Singh’s wife Sakeena. The action choreography, cinematography, and visual effects in Gadar 2 are outstanding and even surpass that of the 2001 prequel. In Gadar 2, you will witness Tara Singh overturning trucks with his bare hands, breaking down massive poles, and of course, sending villains hurtling and flying in the air. In short, the 2-hour and 50-minute screenplay is laden with action and thrills. However, no one can forget the “hand pump” scene of Gadar (2001) where Tara Singh uprooted a massive hand pump and demolished the masses in Pakistan with it. I liked the songs in this sequel, especially the ones like “Udd Jaa Kaale Kaava” and “Main Nikla Gaddi Leke” which brought back the memories of the unforgettable Gadar (2001), the most violent and thrilling romantic action movie of all time! The Bad: The plots of Gadar (2001) and Gadar 2 (2023) are more or less similar. The story of Gadar (2001) is set in the year 1947, during the partition of India whereas the story of Gadar 2 (2023) is set in the year 1971, during India’s war with Pakistan. In Gadar (2001), Tara Singh goes to Pakistan to save his wife, and the same story gets repeated in the sequel, where Tara Singh is again in Pakistan, this time to save his grown-up son, who has fallen in love with a Pakistani girl, just like him. So, it’s the same familiar story, only remastered with a new level of action choreography. https://youtu.be/2nK6WBcGPOw The Verdict: Gadar 2 is a sure-shot blockbuster and its earnings are causing Tsunamis at the Box-Office collections. It is not a very high-budget movie, like many Bollywood and South Indian movies which have crossed INR 500 Crores, but its profits are sure to reach sky-high! It’s obvious, a movie like Gadar 2, and all Anti-Pakistani Bollywood movies are banned in Pakistan. Who can tolerate his or her own defamation? I bet neither you nor I. So, doesn’t Pakistan. The fact is that the release of Gadar 2 set up an outrage amongst Pakistanis where massive posters of Sunny Deol were burned by them. You may not be aware that Sunny Deol has been banned forever from traveling to Pakistan after the release of Gadar 2. Pakistanis have been considering Sunny Deol as their threat for decades. https://youtu.be/IJ8jJfnL3Sc Overall, the Gadar film series is a mass entertainer, one such movie that is close to my heart and the hearts of every Indian citizen. As for my personal opinion, I would say that it doesn’t matter if you watch this movie or not! You may burn posters of Sunny Deol or any other Indian, shower your rage upon Indians, and try to demean them. But, before you mess with an Indian, always remember what Tara Singh (Sunny Deol) said to Ashraf Ali (Amrish Puri) in Gadar (2001), “Aapka Pakistan Zindabaad Hain, Isse Humhe Koi Aitraaz Nahi. Lekin Humaara Hindustan Zindaabaad Tha, Zindabaad Hain, Aur Zindabaad Rahega!” which means, “We take no offense if you chant that Pakistan is victorious. But talking about India; India was victorious, is victorious, and will be victorious forever!”   Read the full article
