‘Raqeeb Se’ written by Bee Gul and directed by Kashif Nisar
has redefined the romantic story telling on Pakistani mainstream television. An
intellectually strong show, that tells relatively simple love story of middle
aged multi layered characters, in a poetic yet realistic manner.
Script/Screenplay is the heart of this serial. Every
character big or small is superbly written with individual unique aspirations. And
what makes this simple story line extraordinary is how these characters
interact with each other. On top story line is not linear, even though it may
appear linear but past baggage that each character carries makes it complex.
Every episode leaves the audience with more questions and theories.
