Zindagi Gulzar Hai

I have always wondered why we have, coming from Pakistan, such amazing dramas with stunningly effective expressions of human relationships through simple real-life situations. We saw this in some amazing TV serials in the 70's and 80's and now we have some more shown to us, thankfully, by an Indian channel. Zindagi Gulzar Hai, along with Humsafar, is one such.

I guess it is because the top writers and directors of Pakistan are not enamoured by the props (both visual and aural) which my countrymen tend to make over-liberal use of. There is much for Indian industry to learn from the where the heart of Pakistani drama lies.

If there is a better presentation of a love story based on the South Asian culture . . . I haven't seen it - I am 66 and have been watching them for over half a century.

The beautifully written dialogue, superbly rendered by the two protagonists are the stand out feature of this romantic drama. The background score is amazing in its subtle and subdued presentation. One tends to see this play and snippets from it again and again and the beauty of the background score starts glowing brightly once one has started hearing other things besides the luminous dialogue.

The acting of all the actors is flawless but Fawad and Sanam Saeed steel your heart.

This is one for the ages.

These days TV series in India lost its freshness regarding story line and about its content. Recently I have watched this series I started watching on "Zindagi"(new TV channel in India) after seeing few episodes on TV I moved to Youtube and watched all episodes on my last weekend I couldn't stopped my self to do so. I really appreciate the direction. I salute to director who created a master piece. They way she treated the story and each and every character of this series. All actors in this performed his part amazingly specially Kashaf(Sanam) and Zarun(Fawad Khan). The relation between these two characters shows the reality between husband wife in very mature way. Watching this series is just like reading your favorite novel. This serial also taught a very good message as well which is still our society needs to learn a lot and this is the practical way to send message in society.

I really want "Sultana Siddiqui" to launch an new project in collaboration of indo-pak actors on any mind blowing story because I know she will make master piece again.

Finally with all regards to talented team of "Zindagi Gulzar Hai" I want to say thanks to entertain me personally.

I never thought I would ever enjoy a south Asian TV series! But this show made me fool! ZGH is such a masterpiece that you just can't deny it's excellency.

Story, Direction, Cinematography, Acting, Music... everything was at its best! Especially Sanam Saeed (as Kashaf Murtaza) was just out of the world! Fawad's performance was also too good. A drama just can't get any better than this. Nothing could be more perfect. ZGH is surely the best Romantic Drama I've ever seen. Though I never liked this genre, but ZGH was more than just romance, more that drama. It is the reflection of reality, reflection of our very own society.

Recommended for Everyone. Highly Recommended for the viewers of India, Bangladesh, Pakistan!

This drama series was one of my favorite! All the episodes were poignant, meaningful, and powerful. The actors/actresses were all engaged with their characters, therefore it looked real and natural. Sameena Peerzada is amazing! I absolutely loved all the simple and meaningful conversations between mother and daughters, son and his parents, brother and sister, sister to sister, wife and husband, and all the ones in between.

The drama gave so many life lessons that everyone who watched it should implement in their own lives. The writing, direction, production, and acting were all excellent!

Thank you Umera Ahmad for writing such a beautiful and well-produced drama series!

*** Zindagi Gulzar Hai ***** It's TRUE. Absolutely TRUE.

After watching this series of 26 Episode my heart was melt down. This is so much true and inspiring story.

I am not able to express my feelings through words (especially in English :P :P) but I will try to my best to provide my feedback as below.

When I started watching first episode since then I got addicted to it and was keep watching all the series one after the another, even I started watching the series in my office. When I was watching there is especial feeling and smile on my face by looking at me others were questioning me about what's happening.

This is not at all Saas Bahu type of series which sees at home regularly even in my house. The dialogues from Kashaf and Zaroon was awesome especially when they started writing their daily dairies and also when they were alone. The background song "Zindagi Jis k Muqaddar main ho Khusyian Teri" is lovely and its meaning was so true. As I know Urdu so I understood most of it.

Ohh!!! What Can I say about Zaroon (Fawad Afzal Khan) and Kashaf (Sanam Saeed). These two ROCKs the show, I really appreciate the effort and their emotions they had put in making this series.

If every mother was like Rafiya (Samina Peerzada) then every child will be grown with beautiful manners and they would love to respect women's. Kashaf (Sanam Saeed) Sisters, Sidra (Mansha Pasha) and Shehnila (Sana Sarfaraz ) was there to support her, they too played their roles very well.

Now coming to Zaroon(Fawad Afzal Khan) family, Father (Javed Shaikh as Junaid) - Best dialogue from Junaid is when he said to Zaroon that "he is so lucky to have Kashaf as his wife from all other propsal" when Zaroon was upset about not informing Osama's propsal. Mother (Hina Khawaja Bayat as Ghazala Junaid) - She is best when she realizes about her and started caring for their family. Sister (Ayesha Omer as Sara Junaid) - She played very important role. Hats off Ayesha, you have taught all the girls who were irresponsible for what they are. Absolutely awesome message you have given that "We need to do adjustment and sacrifice few things after marriage". Love You.

May be you thinking that what a boring review is this. But believe me I am really inspired by hard work shown from Kashaf for her studies and the success she got from it. (This will happen for sure if do with pure honesty).

Those families who thinks that only boys can do and they want a boy from wives should watch this series, if they didn't changed their minds then I will change my name.

Now finally I would like to say about Last Episode, wow what a way to express love with zarron, that dialogue wins lots of Indian hearts. And Ending Dialogues too.

Songs Zindagi Khaak Na Thi" by Hadiqa Kiani and Title song "Zindagi Gulzar Hai" by Ali Zafar was awesome / Heart Wins, Now I am big of you both. Love You Both.

*** With These TV Series which made the relations between both the countries strong, and I am sure that this series wons the millions of Indian. I thanked to Hum TV and Zindagi TV for telecasting it.***

Love You and Allah Hafiz.
