Drama serials in Pakistan are frequently criticized for their boring storytelling techniques. The same old characters and cliches are thrown at audiences every week, and this is becoming old. This includes the overused theme of love triangles, which can be seen in the Tere Ishq Ke Naam trailer right now.
One of the most common plot devices in Pakistani drama serials is a love triangle. The present TV series is only a ghost of those that came before them but shows like Maat and Mere Paas Tum Ho in the past have managed to keep it fresh with outstanding performances and a novel idea.
The most recent illustration of this is the recently-released teaser for Tere Ishq Ke Naam, which features yet another love triangle. Audiences immediately responded by expressing their total contempt for this stupid cliche. Now let’s talk.
Teaser for “Tere Ishq Ke Naam”
So far, there have been two teases. The first teaser follows the relationship between Hiba Bukhari and Usman Khan’s characters as they go from initially falling in love to being married and then breaking up. After then, Zaviyar Nauman enters the scene, hinting at a possible love triangle.
The second teaser, which was made public today, suggests that Hiba and Zaviyar’s respective lives would eventually converge. Although she is a member of the main cast, Yashma Gill has not yet appeared in any teasers. The director and writer are respectively Ahmad Bhatti from Ghisi Piti Mohabbat and Maha Malik from Koi Chand Rakh.
Triangles in Love
The audience’s response to the teasers has been one big sigh, despite the fact that they do feature some imaginative filmmaking and gimmicks, especially the first one. Today’s viewers are far more adept at rapidly brushing aside tired clichés like love triangles and “saas/bahu” plotlines.
Another example of a presently aired program with a love triangle is Mujhe Pyaar Hua Tha, which also stars Zaviyar. Additionally, these programs draw huge audiences and are adored by the fan bases of the stars.
But many people are still put off by how painfully derivative these shows are. Since TV is a writer’s medium and can only advance with authors, it is the job of our production firms to hunt for writers with fresh ideas.
Promoting Extramarital Affairs?
The first teaser concludes with Hiba’s character returning to the outside and encountering Zaviyar. People questioned whether this hinted at an extramarital affair in the program. Viewers should be concerned about this concept.
Two teases, however, are limited in their ability to infer so much. The complete scenario will not become known until the show’s launch later this month. We can only hope that it will pleasantly surprise us and that the plot has more to offer. In the upcoming weeks, we will without a doubt be examining it.
