I was waiting to post this edit, bcs the aesthetics and the song choice are so apt, they compliment each other really well.👏🏻

This is one of my absolute fav scenes from the drama! I'm not sure what vulnerability it would hold for anyone else, but for me, this is smth special.
Everyone of us would've found ourselves, people around us changing certain elements or attributes of the personality to please the one we/they like, which, to some extent is cute. however, when people drown so much into the feelings, they forget themselves in the process of desiring that one person.
Talha gives Roshi a reminder to always be what she is, bcs the one who'll pasand karo her, will like her in any attire, w every version of her. Specifically loved the mention of Oscar Wilde's Quote (bcs I'm a reader and I find myself often quoting lines that stay w me during relatable situations).
Towards the end of the scene we see Talha sitting in silence for a few secs and I found it so thoughtful of the director.

Aamna and Hassan revealed some details about IJ in the latest haute bites episode and some we already know so here's a compilation:
It is a project made by Pakistanis for global audience hence in english as an effort to show their calibre. It was shot in Abu dhabi for 104+ days and 30 locations with no green screen.
It will be dubbed in 30 languages and will release in 2027.
They have took inspiration from Ishtiyaq Ahmed's novels about IJ and have combined 3 novel stories to create a new story so it's not entirely based on a single novel. They've rewritten the screenplay according to the location and story.
There were people from 13 nationalities involved in this so considering it a global project is apt
Stunt coordinator is George Kirby (GOT, Batman, Dr Strange) and Art director is Jordane Chedotal (Dune 2, Star trek beyond, Star wars TFA) are internationally acclaimed.
This is director fahad noor's 1st movie, he has directed saba qamar's show serial killer for green tv.
They'll interview Ahad soon and rest of the cast too.
There are few surprises \[ I can guess cuz we saw Ahmed Ali Akbar, Osman Khalid Butt and Samya Mumtaz's names in the credits\]
Aamna met the producer and he seemed to be in awe of Ahad. Ahad will be playing behzaad who's the antagonist( there's no character by such name in IA's novels so it's a new character formed)
They explained the project is backed by DRM who's their media distribution partner and clarified that DRM doesn't own SH.
The Project seems big, and I really hope it achieves good success. It'll be a big time for the industry if that happens.
Can't wait to see myself falling for a villain🤣

Ebrahim was Maya and Ahad's stylist in Aik Mohabbat Aur. I think the drama's team got along really well. It's fun watching every one sharing photo dumps or playing games like this.
I'M CRYING AND SCREAMING OUT OF ANGER.
The drama ends next week?? without anything satisfactory happening?? they really messed up one of the most anticipated dramas? Ahad has literally never given a flop, he does less no. of dramas but every drama is either a hit or a blockbuster and Farooq Rind after giving a blockbuster like Ishq Murshid has created a mess?
The script was really good, relatable, progressive, talking abt modern day issues from a social, political, relational aspect, talked abt mental health. The Romance Arc had so much potential, yet what we were presented with is a screwed up creation which involves hard work, money, time and efforts of legit a lot of people?
This feels betrayed on some real, personal level. and i really hope that it was some editing mistake but don't think it really was?😭🙏🏻
p.s— pls ignore typos, if any, i'm typing this in haste as i really wanted to rant.
Edit— can we get a new flair for Rants? 🫠

After her post on X, people were speculating if she was supposedly asking fans to not support the drama just bcs of the actors, but she had shared a post appreciating Ahad's work in the drama. i guess this could be taken into clarity for the speculations.
Edit: this is not abt if his acting was good or not but abt the whole scene abt Faiza's stance.
In a space of "Ajnabee", Shippers bring a sort of "Humne tumko dekha, tumne humko dekha, eseeee, hum tum sanam, saaton janam, milte rahein ho jese" energy🥰
P.s- this is just a fun post, so let's not escalate it to discussing different actors and the people they're shipped w.
people on that sub really need to get a life. those people literally just come up w anything that this man does, even if he breathes, they'll make a hate content out of it. can't a picture exist just as a picture?
when such people associate themselves w a certain fandom or anything, the whole fandom is dragged. people hating on sajal or bilal fans is only bcs of this reason bcs some of them are so toxic that they can't simply love their celeb, they'll spread hate and make fun of other people's lives as well. no day goes without these people making a random ahh post abt him or people he is shipped w.
Starting off w the good things. The way khushi was concerned abt Haroon was sweet. Really loved this homemaking side of him, holding her bag, seeing if they're seated properly, just everything.
Other than that, the conversation/clash that happened between Haroon and Khushi was heartbreaking 💔
I loved how Haroon stayed calm, and dealt w the situation respectfully, at the same time it was painful how he couldn't make her understand him and his stance. his eyes screamed his helplessness, his feebleness.
The dialogue "sabke paas bahot sawal hain, or mere paas koi jawab nhi h" , "aapne toh Maan hi liya h k main jhutha hu, wese hi Maan lein ke main kaatil bhi hu", oh haroon😭.
Khushi's words were hurtful, they straight away broke his heart and strength.
Moreover, the news just after that conflict would have shattered him. man i feel so bad for him:(
even after all this, Mr. Malik was more worried abt the spiteful attitude of Khushi, uff the way he loves her🫠
Followed the scene of Haroon's family, and that manhoos Faris, his father should give him another slap lmao.
Abt the next episode— keen to know how things will unfold in the next episode, especially how Khushi will try to reconcile w Haroon, and probably protect him against the charges?
Although, I love the emotional depth and emotionally yearning characters that he usually chooses, but if we were to see him in smth completely different, what would it be like for you?
I was re-watching Sirf Tum starring Hamza Sohail, Anmol Baloch through clips.
I realised this trope is quite common? KMKT is based on the same trope, and even some more dramas.
The Trope— FL was supposed to marry ML's brother, brother ran away due to reasons, FL and ML ended up having a marriage of convenience and had to sail their ship, navigate their unexpected relationship.
What are some of the reasons that some dramas perform exceptionally, and some decently or not at all even after having a similar baseline story? Curious to know different reasons apart from the actors' performance or popularity.
Edit: I like KMKT over Sirf Tum/ any other similar drama bcs of the obv reasons.
why is Ahad Raza Mir disliked so much?
ever since i joined this sub, i've got to know a lot of things which contributed in developing a mixed pov abt the actor, and i haven't seen people in this sub liking him as well.
nonetheless, i find him as an incredible actor, i've always found a sort of versatility w the characters he chooses to play as well (with 1-2 core similarities ofc).
p.s- i'm from the padosi mulk, and have been watching Pakistani dramas since 2017 or even before but never really got into and followed the internal gossips or discourse. it may be a subjective matter that i observed over time, hence i'm open to knowing diff perspectives while at the same time i'd appreciate a respectful discussion.

hi everyone. i'm from a non psych background, gave CUET psych this year and have scored 240+ but due to eligibility issues it seems i can't get into TISS or DU, so my choice goes for AUD (i kinda like the curriculum, have done my thorough research by talking w seniors at AUD, TISS, DU).
i do not particularly see myself as a practitioner, bcs more than providing individual service, i see myself working for a community or basically a larger population of group. so my plan here is to do a PhD in psych further.
i had been planning to do my master's in Psych since 2025, but now since the start of the year, i also see MSW(mental health) as one of the options. bcs it offers community service + i have read and heard that social workers can also practice therapy? and that they have a holistic scope as they deal w the individual/community's whole environment/life.
therefore, can someone pls guide me on how can i make a better choice between these two courses? i wish to take a personal counseling session but the session is in July, and i have to make a choice before that.
I have been wanting to look for affordable options for fruity (strawberry, or berries in general) and fresh scents.
starting from body washes/soap, body lotion, mist and perfumes.
please don't suggest bbw, VS, or anything which isn't from the affordable section, i can't afford them rn😭🙏🏻
hi guys, in the applications, they're asking for a single scanned doc of both marksheet and migration certificate, i didn't check that and have uploaded only marksheet of 12th std and UG. will that be an issue or I can show that in physical doc verification?
