The drama "SIRF TUM" produced by 7th Sky Productions and aired on Geo Entertainment is a classic tale of love, misunderstandings, and traditional twists. While it follows the typical love triangle format, it dares to experiment with a new pairing, bringing together the talented Hamza Sohail and Anmol Baloch.
The script, written by Seema Munaf, is rooted in tradition but also incorporates some bold and frank dialogues, adding depth to the characters and their emotions. The director, Mazhar Moin, displays an average performance with a few typical mistakes. However, he seems to have learned from Indian dramas, incorporating dialogue-less pauses and skilfully holding the camera to save on production costs while maintaining engagement.
Anmol Baloch's transformation is evident, as she has shed some weight and improved her acting skills, although it's suggested that spending time in the gym could make her body more presentable. On the other hand, Hamza Sohail's acting is impressive, but he could benefit from putting on some weight and refining his dressing and outlook. Mohsin Abbas Haider's performance forced you to admire him as he is like a fish in water.
One recurring theme in Pakistani dramas is the depiction of husband and wife relationships without any physical intimacy despite their evident affection. "SIRF TUM" seems to follow a similar path, portraying the characters as lovebirds who face challenges in their relationship.
In conclusion, "SIRF TUM" offers a familiar yet engaging storyline with a refreshing pairing and some commendable efforts in its execution. While it falls into some common drama tropes, the performances of the lead actors keep the viewers invested in the unfolding love triangle. Rating 3 out of 5.
