Humsafar

"Humsafar" which means companion is about journey after marriage of 2 people.

The show not only describe the trials and suffering they face after marriage, but also successfully describe their contrasting personalities which later constitute more problems for the couple who have barely grown to love and hope for each other.

"Asher",who is a educated and modern, but he is also insecure. He has also perhaps unknowingly been represent as the angry young man, while "Khirad" is unusually caring, noble and independent, she is also too innocent and trusting for her own good. which makes this characters of the show fare different than Hindi shows which glorify the protagonists, Humsafar does none of that.

This Pakistani drama-romance is a new and different and makes everything seem more exciting in comparison to its Indian counterparts. Right from the sets to the understated emotions which are gradually heightened only when the script demands, Humsafar will make you spell bound .

Humsafar's biggest strength lies in the unspoken love between its lead pair.The chemistry between Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan is also one of the reasons why Humsafar is a must watch. Both of them excellence and wow you with their performance.

This is a breath of fresh air in world overflowing with trash TV programs and movies. The story line is very strong and although it is slow at times, there is no fluff at all. Frankly I found strong character acting by Fawad Khan. The acting of Atiqa Odho as the scheming mother of Asher is brilliant. Overall, it has a strong story line, wonderful dialogues (I have a strong bias for Urdu which I find very beautiful) and actors who fill their roles wonderfully.

Highly recommended.

I am a huge fan of Novel-based TV Shows in Pakistan as most of them have are well directed and have been successful in the past. As for Humsafar, I would say I'm not a huge fan of the story as there is nothing quite new in it... (sorry I know this Drama has a huge fan base even in countries other than Pakistan). For me the whole charm of this drama lies in the 'performance' of the lead actors. Ashar, Khirad and Farida are beautifully portrayed... and not to forget Naveen Waqar's negative character as Sara. Though in the novel she did not have a strong role, but in Drama Sara's performance has a huge impact. The soulful title track "Woh Humsafar Tha" also contributes a lot much to this drama's success.

Overall I would say it was a good treat to watch this show... and the performances make it "A MUST WATCH"! 4/5!

This is my first time writing a review. Though there are few movies/tv shows which impressed me I didn't feel writing a review about them. But for Humsafar I wanted to do it. To start with "not to miss in lifetime " this is one of the best tv show one could watch. Doesn't need to know Hindi/Urdu to understand this drama. Actors especially the male protagonist speak through his eyes. And the lead couple glue us to the screen whether it's romance or their anger towards each other. Don't think any other show could bring back this magic with the audience. Btw not to forget woh Humsafar tha" wonderful ost mesmerizing

AMAZING, CAN WATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN! IT WILL NEVER GET OLD.
