[Review] Yaariyan Episode 17 – Ayeza Khan, unimpressive in her much-hyped negative role

Umair (Muneeb Butt) accepts that he has been a total beast with wife Sadia (Moomal Sheikh), the child born is his and not Sadia’s ex-husband Ahmer’s (Junaid Khan), and Umair makes a good job of tearfully admitting all his mistakes in front of his mum and Sadia who still remains fretful for reasons best known to herself.

This is perhaps the weepiest role for Moomal Sheikh so far. Sadia’s sister Zoobia (Ayeza Khan, unimpressive in her much-hyped negative role) is still in love with Umair, her ex-boyfriend and vice versa.

This is the one of the most twisted sister acts that Samina Ijaz has written, because Zoobia, on the one hand, makes a big drama out of crying and missing her sister — even on her wedding night in all her bridal finery — and, on the other hand, revengefully marries Ahmer who, interestingly, is forever telling himself that he has no place in his heart for Sadia. But every time her name is mentioned, he wears a pained expression.

The situation gets even stickier when Ahmer catches Zoobia and Umair locking eyes with each other at a family dinner, and later on engaged in a comfortable tete-a-tete, which makes him a bit suspicious of them. Watch only if you have oodles of patience and nothing better to do.
