Dunk, How did she do it? How did she make us feel sorry for Amal? Was it the stony silence, the cold stare towards Haider or just the fact that she looked drop-dead gorgeous, and we forgot, for a moment, that she had lied! Sana Javed, you aced the Dunk episode this week!
But more on that later, let’s contemplate the story so far.
What Will Haider Do Next? Here’s What Went Down This Week! Once again, Dunk’s suspense had us hooked this week!
Dunk delivers a phenomenal (yet slow) episode with great performances and … made some of our theories come true too!
Haider dropping a bombshell on his family
Aakhri minute shaadi se inkaar ne kia sab ko hairan aur pareshan.
Did Haider do a favor to everyone by not revealing the truth about Amal or did he give them even more pain by not explaining his actions?
Is Haider punishing Amal for her jhoot & also for involving him in it? Also, is he ever going to tell his family what’s actually going on or will he keep them in the shadows for a while?
Here’s what went down
The episode crawled at a snail’s pace. It took all of 50 mins for what we saw:
- Mrs. Anjum to visit Professor Humayun’s wife where she was not granted maafi (and we concurred with that one)
- Haider to break up with Amal
- Amal to break down
What we hoped we’d see:
- Safeer deciding to marry Amal
- Saira finding a clue that might help prove the professor’s innocence
OR
3. Haider dropping a hint to Minal about Amal.
Were you thinking what we were thinking?
Spectacular performances & A Shout Out!
Sana Javed has delivered a formidable performance throughout Dunk. Despite the fact that we have zero sympathies for Amal’s two-faced shady demeanour vis-a-vis the harassment case, she STILL managed to garner sympathy from the audience, and that too, with zero dialogues! No one deserves to be left aain shaadi ke time, and she made us believe she was wronged! Her stone-cold silence and proceeding breakdown had us thinking – ‘really? we’re not supposed to feel sorry for this girl’, but here we are, doing exactly THAT!
Supporting Cast Were Not To Be Left behind
Shahood Alvi as Haider’s father crushed it! Chhotay bhai se maafi maangna, especially with the akar he had shown earlier was a hard one. The emotions and dialogues all led to a power-packed performance so a round of applause there too!
Saife Hasan made us shed a tear for the ‘father of the bride’. We could feel the pain of a father let down, splendid expressions there.
Even though it was a slow-paced episode, and much more could have transpired, (had it not been for the elongated OST sequences), Dunk has us hooked.
Awaiting episode 10 next week! Till then, await our Drama Gup over the weekend, and take heart we have one for you from this week!
