Alif

Umera Ahmed's writing always leaves me in a trance, it's never a light reading, it's thought-provoking and heart-wrenching. It feels real. Alif is beautifully written, it's page-turning, can't-put-the-book-down kinda book with multiple plot twist. This book had me in awe with all its surprises. The characters are powerful and the story is strong. One thing I felt was that some things were rushed but aren't they always in cases like these. Umera Ahmed makes us realize that this is Allah's world and things go according to His pace. Let's hope the drama does justice to the book.

Edit: After last episode Words can't do justice in reviewing this drama. A pure masterpiece with a perfect ending. Truly mesmerizing, phenomenal performance, heart -touching dialogues. It is actually something beyond than just a serial. It left me speechless. One of the finest drama of Pakistani drama industry. Without any doubt, much better than Ehd-e-Wada & MPTH. The acting of Manzar Sehbai was marvellous. No words to explain the acting of Hamza Ali Abbassi & Sajal Ali. <3 This beautiful journey came to an end with a perfect and flawless ending.

Ishq-e-Awal Ko Duja Na Kar Zaat Apni Ko Tu Pooja Na Kar

Mohabbatein Bandon Ko Day Ishq Pay Haq Bas Alif Ka Bandeya

Alif bs harf nahi, Yeh zarf yeh kamaal ka Ibtida jahaan ki, Jawaab har sawaal ka

Never in your life you would have seen such attention to detail in Pakistani Dramas. From cinematography, editing to wardrobe, everything is unlike Pakistani plays these days and it is made with a masterful vision of both the writer and the director. The story line and screenplay are beyond words. Don't know from where does Umera write such life changing stories. One thing special about Alif is that it is rich in writing in every other way. A kind of genre that still hasn't been explored. Every episode leaves you hooked. The way story unfolds and how the characters are linked to each other and to one single alphabet is beyond expressions. The characters are human in every way and it is easier for us to connect with them because they are all relatable. The writer should take a bow. The direction in brilliant and it is this unique style of Haseeb Hasaan that makes him stand tall and distinct among others. He did justice to every single word written by Umera. The actors are just another level. From Sajal to Ahsan Khan everyone is brilliant. A special mention goes to the remarkable portrayal of Husn-e-Jahaan by Kubra Khan. Surely an actor to look forward to. Alif is a master class in terms of Story telling and acting and the production value takes it a notch higher letting it shine brighter than any other serial. Watch it if you want a experience of a lifetime........

It seems like you are watching a movie. Story starts in a beautiful Turkey location and the plot is awesome. Best acting and best drama.

Best adaptation of any novel on Pakistani TV. Every cast member is like tailor made for the role. Direction and cinematography is top notch. Well done team Alif!

The drama story is outclass and dialogue is very breath taking. Not a usual drama which is predictable and routine wise. Need this kind of dramas.
