The Blast of Enigma -Bashar Momin Geo Tv drama

Bashar Momin gained the popularity and the 100000 (one lac) likes before the 1st episode went air was something amazing- it was everywhere on the electronic, social and print media. Everyone was excited to know what exactly Bashar Momin is??? Why Faysal Qureshi got these cool yet devilish looks??? Why Ushna Shah after negative character in Rukhsar is playing a role of an innocent girl –why begging Bashar Momin, but without any doubt she proved that she is a genuine actor -Beauty with Brains 


Well their characters were prominent in the promos and the teasers before the episode went on air. So I had quite lot expectations with the drama as many big names were attached and the hype was created that it is going to be the most expensive drama in the history of Pakistani Media Industry.
And Bashar Momin fulfilled all the expectations and gave a shutup call to all the haters. First Episode started with the engagement ceremony of Rudaba (Ushna Shah) with none other than Buland Bakhtiar (Sami Khan) who lives in America and works at World bank on a reputed post but Rudaba thinks that he is going to be some arrogant and rude brat who doesn’t possess any love for country or family values. Her father tried his level best to make her understand that Buland is a good person and he is not an inch of what he thinks of him. Buland is Bakhtiar’s son, and Bakhtiar loves Rudaba as if she is his own daughter. Rudaba is one simple, innocent, down to earth and family oriented girl whose life revolves around her father and brother Adil (Yasir Mazher).
Adil lives with his wife Sahira (Maheen Rizvi) who is big-headed, swollen with pride, rude and outspoken women, who is living a luxurious life with her husband on her brother’s expenses. Adil works for Bashar Momin (Sahira’s brother) he makes his black money white illegally, that’s why he lives in a separate house as Adil and Rudaba’s father has been a sincere and an honest bureaucrat throughout his life so he wouldn’t allow his son to do such illegal stuff. No father would want such life for his son.
Furthermore, after Rudaba’s engagement Sahira felt insulted as Rudaba’s father gave an insulting answer to Adil’s questions regarding Rudaba’s engagement. So Sahira tried her best and somehow succeeded in manipulating Rudaba’s mind and filling her brains with crap against Buland and his character. Rudaba is very innocent that she actually believed what so ever Rudaba said to her and she even complained to her dad “Koi itna zalim nahi hota, apni beti kay saath to nahi” but then he made her understand that Sahira has this ability to control other’s mind, and don’t let her do this to you.
Finally, Faysal Qureshi’s new avatar came in front in this episode! At first it was difficult to relate Bashar’s character with Faysal Qureshi but later on I realized that yes, Only Faysal Qureshi can do this. Faysal Qureshi –I mean Bashar Momin’s character was unkind, arrogant, rude, and cruel. He has everything be it money – power – status – fame and name but he didn’t have happiness (this was obvious). Tayabba (Sundas Tariq) Sahira and Buland’s younger sister who was engaged twice but those engagements were called off because of  Bashar’s reputation. One thing is quite clear that he can’t see pain or tears in his sister’s eyes and can kill the whole world to bring happiness for them. 
Undoubtedly the direction, costumes, ambiance, dialogues, cinematography, direction of photography, all of the title songs and particularly the screen everything was amazing. Syed Ali Raza Usama proved himself to be the perfectionist. Zanjabeel’s script created a character of Bashar Momin who is going to stay in heart of the audience for a long time.
