    ‘Meray Paas Tum Ho’ has ended but the drama hasn’t

    The grand finale of Meray Paas Tum Ho has finally aired putting to rest all speculations over who will die and what will finally happen of Mehwish. While the drama was a phenomenal success, it did stir up controversy with its problematic dialogues and comments by the writer Khalil ur Rehman Qamar in his various interviews. The writer was accused of being misogynist and anti-women.

    A few days before the finale, upcoming actor, Rehmat Ajmal, who plays Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish’s (Ayeza Khan) friend Aisha in the drama, said that she is “not proud to be part of something that is so compromising and ill-informed”.

    Taking to Instagram, she wrote the message on her public account, saying that she watched Qamar’s interview and “got to know about his problematic views on very many things WAY after the project was completed” and that “I absolutely do not endorse the concepts and viewpoints of Mr Khalil Ul Rehman”.

    Following Rehmat’s decision to distance herself from the show, Musaddiq Malik, who is the Associate Director of the play, and also plays Monty in the drama lashed out at Rehmat for “pulling a publicity stunt”.

    He explained that “no actors were ill-informed about the play” and everyone “knew everything that they are signing up for”. He added that he was hurt by Rehmat’s comments as “a friend and it has got nothing to do with anyone of you nor does anyone have the right to say bad stuff about her”.

    ‘Meray Paas Tum Ho’ memes light up audiences after a dull finale

    If there is one thing Pakistanis are an expert at, it has to be memes. While the finale of the blockbuster Meray Paas Tum Ho left audiences wanting more, the memes that came after it is what we are living for.

    Here are some of our favourite memes:

    The writer of the drama, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar was brutally trolled for killing Danish.

    There were plenty of ‘Bhutto Zinda Hai’ memes.

    People couldn’t help but quote Prime Minister Imran Khan.

    Or bring in former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.

    Danish’s death even made it to the headlines.

    Umar Akmal’s rendition of the title song of the drama was also brought in.

    Danish’s death even caught the attention of US President Donald Trump.

    Some people made fun of those who watched the finale in cinemas.

    And then there were those who marked themselves safe from the drama serial.

  • What was that? The Finale of Meray Paas Tum Ho

    What was that? The Finale of Meray Paas Tum Ho

    Here we were thinking Meray Paas Tum Ho reflected the reality of our society, cheating, divorce, attempted suicide and forgiveness but it turned out to be an unbelievably bad episode of a cheap rate soap opera.

    Doctors should protest the incredibly bad portrayal of them in this drama. Which doctor and hospital in their right mind allows children in intensive care units? And that isn’t even the worst of it. Which doctor says ‘okay’ when a patient suffering a heart attack says , “I’m fine doctor” let me take my mask off and speak to my child as my heart flatlines. Ajeeb ending with the only goal being to make Danish (Humayun Saeed) into such a big martyr that koyi shaqh hi na ho that he could not live if he couldn’t be with Mehwish (Ayeza Khan). And apologies to Humayun Saeed. The man is a stellar actor but he cannot act in a death scene. His dying routine was so so bad that no wonder Mehwish didn’t come to help him. Who could believe a man could die like that?

    Sweet isnt it? The scene where Danish is dying and Mehwish is crying and it seems like dekho isko chor nahi sakta is liye isko marna hoga. Even if you are a hater on the acting (like us) the scene was moving because it reminded us of Danish’s bad times (when he was a good actor) and how much we truly felt his pain.

    The most infuriating part of the finale was, that in true Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar style, Shehwar (Adnan Siddiqui) delivers one of the most sexist and misogynistic dialogues of the whole series. “Aisi aurat ko mard barbad nahi karta, uske andar uska apna ghar tornay ki himmat bardbad karti hai. Aisi auratein yeh nahi dekhtein keh unko kya mila hai, woh yeh dekhti hain kay doosron ko kya mil gaya hai. Andhi hotein hai aisi auratein….lske liye kisi ka Shehwar Ahmed hona zaroori nahi hai.”

    WTH.

    Like seriously, this is a bit TOO much. The guy who started it all, the snake Shehwar gets a clean chit, with his wife wanting him back and he walks away with dignity and respect, putting all the sick blame on Mehwish. Not on. At all.

    Rumour has it, three endings were recorded for this drama and we really wish they had picked another one. the 15-20 minute recap was highly unnecessary as was the long-winded conversation between Rumi and Danish. For once, we would’ve liked a drama that ended with the man forgiving the woman but with biased writers and actors that oblige, that seems far from coming true.

    Mansha Pasha defends ‘Meray Paas Tum Ho’

    As Meray Paas Tum Ho inches closer to the finish line, the hype surrounding it is increasing. While some love the show, others are criticising it for being misogynistic and sexist. Nonetheless, everyone agrees with the fact that the show is one of the biggest hits of recent times.

    Mansha Pasha, in a tweet, congratulated the entire team of the drama for its success adding that “one may disagree with personal opinions but no one can deny the success and the talent of everyone involved”.

    Soon after, the actor started getting trolled for supporting it. However, Pasha had strong responses to all the criticism.

    Using Game of Thrones, Hannibal and You as examples, Mansha explained that a drama should be seen as entertainment and people should not take it seriously or get influenced from it.

    When someone brought in Khalil ur Rehman Qamar’s problematic statements, Mansha remarked that “a writer’s personal opinions should not be confused with his work.”

    Did you know that Mansha has also acted in a drama written by Khalil ur Rehman Qamar?

    At the end of it all, Mansha thanked her fans for engaging with her and sharing their perspective on the matter.

    Upcoming actor, Rehmat Ajmal, who plays Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish’s (Ayeza Khan) friend Ayesha in Meray Paas Tum Ho says that she is “not proud to be part of something that is so compromising and ill-informed”.

    Taking to Instagram, she wrote the message on her public account, saying that she watched Khalil ur Rehman Qamar’s interview and “got to know about his problematic views on very many things WAY after the project was completed” and that “I absolutely do not endorse the concepts and viewpoints of Mr. Khalil Ul Rehman”.

    Rehmat’s post on Instagram

    She explains that her role in the drama is limited and she did not get a chance to see how the whole thing would come together. She was not aware of the entire story line or of Rehman’s ideology when she accepted the role. It is her “first ever telecom project and I am learning – I have learnt to be cautious and more conscious with my creative choices”. She also asks people to, “extend new, struggling artists some leeway as we are in the process of learning” and that they are trying to make their mark on merit.

    The hit drama has broken all records for viewership but the writer of the show, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar has come under fire for his misogynistic comments about women.

    In ARY’s success show of Meray Paas Tum Ho Khalil ur Rehman Qamar made some more controversial comments and the female actors sitting around him said nothing and visibly cringed. The actors came under direct fire on social media for not speaking up against Qamar’s comments.

    Advance booking for ‘Meray Paas Tum Ho’ finale sets new record at the box-office

    Advance bookings for the finale of Meray Paas Tum Ho have hit a record high. Tickets for the the last mega episode of the drama which will be screened in cinemas across the country on January 25 are selling out fast as fans purchase them in large numbers.

    According to reports, advance sales hit a phenomenal 3.6 million (36 lakh) rupees till the close of business on Saturday.

    Given the response to the drama, cinemas are hosting multiple shows of the finale to cash on the drama as much as possible.

    It is also being reported that the episode will not be uploaded on YouTube as per the norm. This is likely to push the sales even more as people rush to book their tickets so that they do not miss out.

    Starring Ayeza Khan, Humayun Saeed, Adnan Siddiqui and Hira Mani, Meray Paas Tum Ho has been directed by Nadeem Baig and written by the critically acclaimed Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar. It follows the story of a married couple whose life falls apart after the woman has an affair.

    It’s a double episode and will air on the 25th of January on television and cinemas across Pakistan. And the promotional video does not disappoint.

    It seems like Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) are getting back together if the promo is to be believed. But it really can’t be that easy. Especially since the writer has revealed that someone is going to die in the last episode. Moreover, it seems like Shehwar (Adnan Siddiqui) is going to leave Maham (Savera Nadeem) and we are wondering where he is going to go.
