beta death, hindi spoken is urdu influenced because of urdu usage in bollywood for years

Zindagi Gulzar Hai: Top 7 reasons why this Pakistani serial is a big hit!

Tags: Fawad Afzal Khan, Sanam Saeed, Zaroon Junaid, Zindagi Gulzar Hai, Zindagi-Jodey Dilon Ko

Zindagi Gulzar Hai, a Pakistani based romantic-drama that captured Indian audiences’ hearts on Zee TV channelZindagi will wrap up on July 18. The final 26th episode will be aired on Friday and we will see the lovely couple of Zaroon Junaid and Kashaf Murtaza coming together for the last time! So what was so unique about this particular show that made us sit glued to our TV sets? Was it the chocolate boy Fawad Afzal Khan’s charismatic personality as Zaroon Junaid or was it the different plot? We take a look at seven reasons that made Zindagi Gulzar Hai a big hit:

Fawad Afzal Khan as Zaroon Junaid

However you may disagree, but a majority of us started watching Zindagi Gulzar Hai after taking that one glance at the main lead in glares! Fawad Afzal Khan as Zaroon Junaid came as the man of your dreams – suave, great looking and with an amazing voice! Pakistani actor Fawad Afzal Khan became a massive hit among girls since the first look hit the telly world. His charisma completely wooed the audience and they looked forward to the show. Fawad is also making his Bollywood debut opposite actress Sonam Kapoor in 1980 remakeKhoobsurat.

Sanam Saeed as Kashaf Murtaza

The fashionista of Pakistan, Sanam Saeed’s portrayal of simpleton Kashaf Murtaza is hands down the best acting you have seen in a while. Playing the role of a girl who is constantly in war with her fate, Sanam is brilliant. You actually feel her situation and know she is not doing what we call ‘over-the-top-acting’.

Fixed number of episodes

It’s been a while in Indian telly land that we had fixed number of episodes for a story. Now we see many serials celebrating the millionth episode’s success! The good thing about Zindagi Gulzar Hai has been the knowledge in the viewers’ mind about the number of episodes. So they looked forward to it even more.

Close to reality

Full points to the makers for keeping the story depiction as close as possible to the real world. With due respect to the Indian serials, Zindagi Gulzar Hai did not show a lower middle-class family in a seven-room cottage or an upper-class guy cracking Rs 1,000 crore deals. There were no far-fetched stories and everything was relatable. This is no typical saas-bahu drama. And thank god for the first time we had no bitchy monster-in-laws in their gawdy make-ups. They did show saas and their ‘concerns’ but to a limit and something you believed.

Opposites attract, but this was not your conventional love story

Zaroon Junaid is shown as a big time flirt during his college days while Kashaf is your serious and mature girl. Two people with a widely different nature falling in love is something that has been done to death, with the lead actress falling umpteenth number of times on the hero and several rain dance sequences. Honestly this does not happen in real life! In Zindagi Gulzar Hai, you love the subtle way of expressing love and gradual falling in love, which is what happens in real life!

Sub-plots are interesting and nicely woven

To have a successful show you don’t need to show the lead pair in every frame. This is exactly what Zindagi Gulzar Hai does. They have interesting sub-plots involving Kashaf’s father and step-mother’s family, Zaroon’s sister Sara’s life. You totally want to know what happens in their life as well.

Brilliant supporting cast

Apart from Zaroon and Kashaf, we are sure you must have formed a love-hate relationship with Ayesha Omar as Zaroon’s sister Sara. You totally hate Mehreen Raheel as Zaroon’s manipulative ex-fiance Asmara. And you have definitely been dicey about Zaroon’s best friend Osama played by good looking Sheheryar Munawar Siddiqui. One word for the supporting cast – brilliant!

We are sure there are more reasons for you to catch up with Zindagi Gulzar Hai. But do not you worry asZindagi is set to be replaced by another show Maat. Tune in to that every day at 8 pm on Zindagi channel.

I cant believe u are saying that anyone who has remained a student of urdu would know they are different. Urdu although newer has a much richer literature and history. You just think that what is spoken today is urdu which is technically faar from it. My great great grandfather fought for urdu when hindus forced the british to replace it with hindi ie the urdu-hindi controversy. I would never join my pure language the language of poets with hindi which whenever you speak sounds like you are being rude

It's sad that every tom,dick and harry is talking about what constitutes a language without having even the basic knowledge of linguistics.Verbs and only the verbs and their inflections make up a language.Now the question arises,Do Urdu and Hindi have different verbs?or atleast are their verbs derived from 2 different languages?No.not even a single verb or tense did.all the verbs and pronouns are direct derivatives of Sanskrit.ex:peee,khaa,maar,likh,padh,uth etc and pronouns like hum,mein,tum are derived from Sanskrit.
No matter how many loan words you have in a language,as long as it sticks to its original grammar it can't be called another language.
Ex:mera brother six oclock sleep se Uth ke breakfast karke,car mein apne college ko gaya.(my Hindi isn't very gud)

There are seven English words and seven Hindi words in the above sentence.even a person who never attended a school will tell you that the language spoken was Hindi and not English inspite of having 7 English words.how?bcoz the verbs prepositions and pronouns used were Hindi.That is how a language is judged.No matter how many nouns of Turkish,Arabic and Persian origin Urdu has,it can't be called a separate language from Hindi as long as both have same grammar and verbs and their inflections.

I only know one reason why even a Lungi serial from BD will be a BIG HIT in India..........................

BECAUSE THEY ARE NECESSARY BREATHER FROM THE SAANS-BAHU BS ON INDIAN TELEVISION. PERIOD.

You are a genius, go watch your PTV's kitabi Urdu, the Hindus and Muslims in entire North India speak an identical vernacular of it. Now, don't distribute wisdom here.

I was just pulling the troll's legs. I know Urdu and Hindi are basically the same languages but you could call it different dialects.

So! did you succeed.

 

[Mike_Brando]

same melodramatic shit like other indian dramas,,,only fit for women.

Paaji i think i have already understood your choice.It's something in the line of "24" hindi version,isn't it??

24 was 1000 times better than any other indian shit no doubt but its not original,,,just a licenced version of original 24 which i never liked btw.

You mean muhajirs in Karachi speak the Urdu similar to your national anthem or the Urdu spoken by them is similar to the Hindi spoken by Indians. Do you watch Persian movies or Bollywood movies.
