Shehnai, starring Affan Waheed and Ramsha Khan is the new drama on the block! After watching the first episode, get to know our verdict: Stream it or skip it?
ARY Digital airs first 2 episodes of Shehnai, under iDreams Production. It’s directed by Ahmed Bhatti, the man behind hits like Ghissi Pitti Mohabbat, Thora Sa Haq & Baydardi. Shehnai is a fun and comedic take on a love story. After the first episode, we’re here, with a new review and fresh views!
What’s Shehnai All About?
Joint family system, jaidaad kay muslay, zabardasti ki shadee – all the issues are depicted in a fun & comic way that make you laugh & smile throughout the episode. While the drama does have main leads – hero & heroine, each & every character in the drama is worth watching & holds our attention.
Meerab (Ramsha Khan) & Bakht (Affan Waheed), their lives joined together in an arranged mangni, are childhood friends who want to marry other people, but have not disclosed this to their parents due to some reasons.
Their families were bent upon getting them engaged & succeeded in doing just that.
Aagay Kia?
Just when Bakht decides to run away from home & Meerab’s love interest threatens to kill himself with a gun, a miracle happens that might just save them both.
A Great Cast!
The cast, whether it’s the hero/heroine or the supporting cast, everyone matters! Shehnai didn’t shy away and showcase a stellar ensemble cast that we’re super excited to see!
Pakistani drama writers are developing supporting cast with impactful stories to tell. This has elevated the watching experience for viewers and offers more range to supporting cast to contribute more fully to a project. A stand-out watch is Saleem Meraj in the role of Kaifee Bhai. One, he appears in a comic role which is a new for his fans, and two, he’s killing it! And so is the rest of the ensemble cast by the way. You will not notice the 2 back-to-back episode watch as it’s such a breeze.
Also, although Ramsha Khan as Bakht and Affan Waheed as Meerab shine in their respective roles, we are equally entertained by the likes of Shehnai stars Maham Aamir, Zainab Qayum, Nabeela Khan, Saleem Meraj, Javed Sheikh, Samina Ahmed, Nida Mumtaz, Javeria Abbasi & Behroze Sabzwari! Amazing, right?
We’re Not Spoiling The Story For You, Watch It For Yourself!
Shehnai has our attention & as of now, definitely worth a watch.
Although the story is nothing new to go by, yet the storytelling has us – this one’s very engaging & definitely watchable. So we’re surely waiting for episode 3!
