Qubool Hai (2012)
Like other Indian shows, starts great and lands downhill
I've been watching this on Zee Alwan since a while now, the first season ended on 2015 this same time, and it is still being shown on Zee Alwan.
Warning! Spoilers ahead, read at your own risk!
The Arabic dubbed version is basically the same with Arabic dubbed voices, the first season was split into two season, personally I think it started great and had a lot of potential, but they couldn't pause the show and solve the issues with actors and decided to replace Asad Ahmad Khan's actor (Karan Singh Grover) with another actor (Raqesh Vashisth) then came the crazy unbelievable ending that ruined it and ended the first season. There are many unbelievable things, how could one simply get away with murder and marry a famous personality and still leave Jail after 20 years, and oh... the Indian soap operas hate realism, Tanveer never aged and Razia is still the same, which isn't very realistic...
Tanveer's marriage to the nawab seemed also like an additional plot that wasn't added or explained correctly, like how can you get away with murder and marry a famous person? and Dilshad really never spoke about what really happened? that's pathetic and really dumb.
Reading the plots of Season 2 (Current one) and Season 3 and 4, I can tell this will be going downhill and get even worse, I won't be able to watch it without laughing, no wonder why TRPs drop for such shows, why do Indian show/soap writers/producers/directors always make the same mistake?
Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon (2011)
Great Romance Show / Aka Men Al Nazra Al Thanya (من النظره الثانيه) on MBC Bollywood.
So yeah, I've been watching this with my mom on MBC Bollywood and she loves it, I hate admitting things but I kinda like it too, its a special new type of Romance show it explores real realms of lies, arrogance, love-hate relationships that turn into real romance and how coincidence brings people together (or fate if you believe in it) its also about family relationships with a little comedy twist in every chapter/episode almost. If you like soap operas / shows, and mainly different types of romance shows, comedy shows, you're either a woman or a teenager or an adult (women and men / boys and girls / family) of 18 ~ 30 ~ 40 of age (Obviously not meant of careless 50+ year old men), you'll still love this because it has everything, great plot (while some scenes seemed a bit stupid) great actors, great direction, no fake situations or fake production.
The Arabic dubbed version on MBC Bollywood runs for 1 hour (that is less Episodes when compared to the original Hindi version) And it will be resumed after Ramadan as I am writing this during the 21th of Ramadan and the show is currently showing a repeat of the whole first season/past episodes during this month from 3 PM to 6 PM (about 3/4 Episodes per day).
Lastly I am giving it 10/10 because 7/10 is not fair, definitely not as bad as other Hindi soap operas I've seen, like.. Kasamh Se (But I still liked it) #IPKKND is believable and helpful, well.. sort of.
Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? What Name Should This Love Be Given? How should I call this love?
