Is Bushra Ansari’s Drama Zebaish Any Good?

Does this dark thriller live up to its billing?

Highly anticipated drama serial Zebaish didn’t make the mark that fans were expecting it to make. The serial fell short of the hype, very short.

With its star-studded cast and a script by Bushra Ansari, fans had high hopes for the serial. The teasers gave the impression that this serial will be a dark thriller but all we’ve seen so far is two funerals and unnecessary violence towards a woman.

Why was this slap scene with Iqbal Hussain just written in? Just for the sake of it?

The toxicity doesn’t end there. We see Pakistani drama serials projecting fake harassment cases once again. It’s like how 90s movies in Hollywood made it seem like everyone was in law enforcement or a lady of the night. While reality was much different.

Rather than provide a platform for real issues, why is harassment romanticized like it was in Ye Dil Mera or falsified like it is in Zebaish?

Meanwhile, drama serials like Inkaar see the victim and harasser reconcile in the end.

People had plenty of opinions about the content.

 

As for the star power, not even that could save the serial from falling from grace. Zara Noor Abbas plays the same character she played in Ehd-e-Wafa, Chhalawa, and Parey Hut Love. The bumbling, hands-on, and trouble-making child.

The public wasn’t a fan of everyone else’s acting either.
