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.
Child actor Shees Sajjad Gul who plays the role of Roomi in the superhit drama Meray Paas Tum Ho recently revealed that he wants to be a scientist when he grows up. Shees added that he’s not sure whether he wants to pursue acting as a career as not.
Son of director and producer, Sajjad Gul, Shees debuted in MPTH and also features in ads. He even has his own YouTube channel with more than 72,000 subscribers.
Meanwhile, Shees further shared that Ayeza Khan and Humayun Saeed who essay the role of his onscreen parents took great care of him on the sets.
The finale of the blockbuster drama serial Meray Paas Tum Ho (MPTH) will not be airing on television this Saturday.
In fact the final episode will be a ‘mega double episode’ which will air on January 25 simultaneously on ARY Digital and in cinemas across Pakistan.
Special News Alert The Biggest Drama in the History of Pakistani Television is coming to its end!! Watch the Last Mega Double Episode of #MerayPaasTumHo SIMULTANEOUSLY on ARY Digital and in Cinemas Across Pakistan on Saturday, 25th Jan 2020 at 8:00 PM‼️#ARYDigitalpic.twitter.com/PZnELXgh60
Not only that, it is being reported that the cast of the drama will also attend a special screening — along with a select group of guests — at Nueplex Cinema in Karachi.
Meanwhile it is also being reported that the team of MPTH has gathered in Karachi to shoot a success show of the drama which will air this Saturday. The shoot of the special show will take place tomorrow (Wednesday).
The episode ended without much of a bang, but the teaser for the next episode was the shocker. Two episodes left. Its time for the big reveal: Will Danish (Humayun Saeed) take back Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) or marry Hania (Hira Mani)?
The series has been anything but typical. But what is frustrating is that there are moments that are so problematic and anti-women.
The most recent episode of the drama shows Maham (Savera Nadeem) accepting Shahwar (Adnan Siddiqui) back into her life. He has to prove himself, as she removes him from his position in the company, but why is he forgiven for that ultimate sin that the writer, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar isn’t allowing a woman to be forgiven for?

The controversial writer is no stranger to backlash and seems like he doesn’t mind it much either. He has passed many controversial comments about women and recently made new ones and some revelations of the program.
The episode, airing on Saturday, January 11th on ARY Digital, is going to be longer and not ‘for the faint-hearted’. The writer warns that it’s a real tear-jerker and if someone is emotional, they should keep their medicines close by. He also says that ‘God might forgive sins, but love does not,’ when asked about the ending of the drama.

Roomi, Danish and Mehwish’s son also goes out on a limb and literally proposes to Hania and asks her to marry his father. What’s also stranger is how Roomi is allowed to go to her house on his own and do these crazy gestures but obviously, his role defines what his father will do.

It will be disappointing if Danish doesn’t forgive Mehwish. Especially since Maham has taken Shehwar back in his life. But based on what the writer is saying about the end, Danish and Mehwish might not be ending up together.

Mehwish is repenting. She buys her old apartment, where she lived with Danish and her son, she prays and cries and admits her mistakes, asking Danish to let her live with him, for their son’s sake. But all that might not be enough.
With only a few episodes left, Meray Paas Tum Ho is fast approaching its end. The drama has been a superhit – the TV ratings have been hitting the roof while each episode has atleast a couple of million views on Youtube.
Adnan Siddiqui, who played the character of the dynamic lady-killer Shahwar Ahmed, has wrapped up the shoot for the drama and took to social media to share a video of the celebrations on set.
The video which features director Nadeem Baig, Savera Nadeem and Musadiq Awan among the rest of the crew shows everyone celebrating with cake.
Adnan also penned an emotional note along the video in which he wrote that being part of the drama was a “thrilling and educating experience.” He shared that when the script was offered to him, he was still double-minded about the drama because he was not sure about “how the audience would react” and whether they would accept his character.”
Adnan also praised the direction, engaging dialogues, story line and title song adding that MPTH was “one of the rare dramas that had everything going for it in the right direction.”
The actor said that he was going to miss shooting for it and signed off by thanking his my co-stars, director, writer, producers, crew members, and “above all my fans for all the love and appreciation.”

Humayun Saeed welcomed his New Year at Makkah by performing Umrah.
Taking to social media, the actor shared that he always wished to begin the new year at the “most sacred place” and his wish finally came true this year. Humayun shared that he prayed for his country and fans.
Always wished to begin new year at this most sacred place & Alhamdulillah my wish came true this year. Welcoming 2020 with prayers for all of u & our beloved Pakistan.

The latest episode made Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) come out to be narcissistic and incredibly self-absorbed, which is something that was unexpected and a real put-off.
The episode starts off with Maham (Savera Nadeem) coming to meet Mehwish and offering her 2.5 crore rupees for her time with Shehwar (Adnan Siddiqui). She glares at her with unmoving eyes and it isn’t very clear why she’s offering Mehwish the money, considering Shehwar is in jail and Mehwish tells her she isn’t interested.
Maham’s expression didn’t change throughout her conversation with Mehwish
Anyway, it does make Mehwish seem like a martyr. She doesn’t want money, or Shehwar and just wants love.
But really? Does she want that? She waits outside Danish’s (Humayun Saeed) office and leaves him a note on his car, saying she imagines him sitting in his fancy car, wondering what his life is like. So she’s still quite materialistic.
Danish’s friend finds the note and reads it. We aren’t sure if Danish ever got a look at it
What isn’t okay is the way she tries to commit suicide. It’s insinuated, and the one person who is most affected is her son, Rumi. Danish comes to see if she’s okay and leaves without meeting her. She wakes up and asks if he came to meet her, showing the reason why she tried to commit suicide – to get Danish’s attention, who didn’t give it to her.

If you have or had any sympathy for Mehwish, it dies right there and becomes into disgust. Also, when a Pakistani drama takes on the incredibly sensitive issue of suicide, it needs to be handled sensitively and it wasn’t in this episode. It seemed rather matter of fact. Girls do such crazy things for attention, it seemed. Giving the drama has handled other issues so well, one hopes that it discusses the issue of suicide in the next episode instead of letting it go with such ease.
Rumi is badly affected by his mother’s attempt, which is obvious. Danish seems concerned but not as much as one would think. He was proposing to Hania (Hira Mani) before he found out Mehwish was in the hospital. Or was he proposing?
So happy after Danish tells her he wanted to ask her to marry him for revenge
It was a super weird proposal. Telling Hania, in front of her friend that he wanted to come ask her to marry him, but then it wouldn’t be fair to her if he did considering it wasn’t for love. ” Agar aap maan gayein tou badla leyne mai aap use hojayein gi,” Danish says to Hania. Hania seems totally bowled over which is so weird considering the proposal was so terrible and says that, “dobara mat poochye ga will you marry me. Kya pata mai haan kehdo”, hinting that shes up for a marriage of convenience/revenge.
So pleased with himself after Hania tells him she would say yes if he asked her again to marry him. Despite it being a proposal of revenge
Overall, the female leads really started a downfall in this episode. The strong self-absorbed Mehwish turns to suicide to get a man’s attention and the sweet selfless Hania becomes desperate to marry a man who is telling her he doesn’t love her. Here’s hoping for some redemption in the next one.
Pakistan is celebrating the 144th birth anniversary of the father of the nation, Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah today with traditional zeal and respect.
Pakistani celebrities including Humayun Saeed, Hamza Ali Abbasi, Shaan and Ahsan Khan took to social media to pay a rich tribute to the “visionary and a great leader.”

Today on the Quaid’s Birthday, let us reflect on his foresight in giving the Muslims a homeland. His words “Any idea of a united India could never have worked, and in my judgment, it would have led us to terrific disaster.” could not have been more prophetic. #ThankYouMAJinnahpic.twitter.com/YKEZ4ZPVJt

Ouch. Danish is still hurting but he’s definitely not going to take Mehwish back. That phone call between the two makes it evidently clear. Or does it?
The episode starts with Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) trying to get her friends to help her out but they are initially averse to the idea of doing so because she has committed the ultimate sin – betraying their friend. She goes to meet Hania (Hira Mani) trying to get help from her, and also trying to figure out what Hania’s relationship is with Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish’s son Rumi. It is obvious that Mehwish’s main goal is now to get back with Danish and she tries her best to talk to the people who know him to find out where his head is at, before she calls him herself.
Hania also feels for Mehwish as Mehwish tells her about what’s happened
The phone call is painful. Humayun Saeed is such a perfect actor that you can actually feel the pain in his voice as he tells his ex-wife how much he used to miss her. And how they can never get back together.
Danish, stone-faced as he listens to Mehwish on the phone
But the phone call that makes everyone’s heart tug is the one between Mehwish and her son Rumi. He couldn’t sleep without her and one feels so strongly for the child, and also despises Mehwish in that moment; not for following what she wanted and leaving Danish, but for not considering her child’s feelings as well. She tries to make amends with him and as any child, Rumi also cannot help but become warm with Mehwish – she is after all his mother. But when he tells her how his father used to miss her by calling her name, forgetting she wasn’t there, in that moment, you cannot help but feel that Mehwish never deserves redemption. As she cries, you become conflicted. People make mistakes.

But as Danish explains to his son later, it wasn’t a mistake. It was a sin. And therefore, cannot be redeemed. He does tell his friend that he’s forgiven her, “Kehdo uska maaf kar dia,” Danish tells his friend, “Khuda ki qasm maaf kar dia,” but as he talks to Rumi he is a little more honest, saying, “jis din mai usko bhool jaonga tou mil jaye gi usko maafi”
Rumi and Danish share a heartfelt conversation, showing they’re a team
It’s an emotional episode because you see Danish struggle. He still loves her and it’s quite possible he always will. And he knows that just one word, and he can have her back. Possibly, more in love with him than he was with her. Her life has turned upside down. She’s gotten a job and is living in a women’s hostel. Right now, Danish has everything that she wants. She just doesn’t have Danish.
Mehwish, trying to atone for her sins, goes to a mazar
Do you feel for her? Yes, you do and Ayeza Khan does an absolutely fantastic job as the arrogant woman who thwarts love and then realizes the incredibly huge mistake she’s made. The acting is what does it. There’s no way you cannot feel, even a little, for her. Her fall from ‘greatness’ is that big. And you wonder that if the tables had turned and this was a husband who had cheated, the wife would most likely take him back.There are many Pakistani dramas that already have that ‘happy ending’. So when she goes to a mazar, remembers her husband who was good and loving, she tries to atone for her sins. And maybe, she can have it. Everyone sins, everyone makes mistakes. Just because she’s a woman, doesn’t mean she doesn’t get a second chance.
Hania’s expression when Danish says he wants to marry her
But according to the teaser for the next episode, it does. Danish is seen asking Hania to marry him, or rather asking someone else in front of Hania, if Hania will marry him. Mehwish ends up in the hospital and he rushes to find out what’s happened. Love is unfortunately love. It doesn’t die, even if you’re side-lined, betrayed or even when you come back.
