We are so used to thinking of Haissem Hussain as the director of an epic like Dastaan( and of course his romcoms like KPKPP, Aik Naeey Cinderella, AunZara and Akbari Asghari) that the intimate style he has used for Bin Roye comes as a pleasant surprise. I get the feeling Saman takes after her while Saba is more like her father and grandmother. There are so many beautiful people in this serial, but Zeba Bakhtiyar is exceptional. Bigul Hussain is a lovely, wise dadi, who is the backbone of her little family. No one except Dadi understands Saba’s pain, to the rest of her family Saba is just the spoiled baby who may miss having Irtiza to order around. The scene at the engagement illustrated it perfectly, the special connection between Saba and Irtiza quietly closed just as Saman and Irtiza became an exclusive party of two. Irtiza and Saman are lost in their new world as a couple while Saba’s parents are busy trying to make up for Saman’s loss.

I just love how this story unfolds from Saba’s perspective everything the audience sees is at her eye level and gives the full effect of all the alienation she is feeling. Armeena has justified her role and was looking just right sitting next to Irtiza at the engagement. I don’t think Saman is written as a very authentic portrayal of a Pakistani American girl, but just taking her role as Saba’s older, more sophisticated, more mature sister on face value it works. Armeena Rana’s portrayal finally had some energy to it and brought Saman to life. Saman is a lot like Irtiza, caring, unendingly kind and so completely artless that being angry with her would be as pointless as setting fire to a butterfly. It might have been easier for Saba if she had been allowed the luxury of hating Saman, but fate will not give her even that small salve to lessen her pain because no one can hate Saman. Mahira Khan was nothing short of magnificent, every twist and turn of Saba’s feelings was portrayed with heart wrenching depth. Saba sat through a game she knew she was losing, and still she tried to buck herself up, rationalizing, pushing and hoping till the inevitable final blow when she hears Irtiza declare his feelings to Saman. However with each episode it has surpassed expectations, and this week’s episode was just so ‘next level ‘it brought on that whole obsessive Humsafar feeling I had been missing since Dayar e Dil ended. I think I have been waiting for Bin Roye since Humsafar ended and when it did finally arrive, sans Fawad Khan, a story everyone knew and a veritable baraat of directors attached to its name, I wasn’t expecting much.
