Iqtidar

What the hell is going on this show? How are the MAIN LEADS having 2 minutes of screen time in two episode per week combined? We have approximate 65 minutes of side characters every week and only 2-3 minutes of screen time for main lead couple, how are the director and makers so incompetent as to not know that the reason this show is a super hit is because everyone is watching this show only and only for Mehshah and no one else, but the show has a plotline for every side character but there's absolutely no story for the main couple, mehrunnisa was not introduced to us as this pathetic shallow woman who's fighting other woman for a man who won't even take a stand for her, doesn't care for her and disrespects her again and again by choosing everyone else above her, and is also two timing!!! Mehrunnisa was fierce, broke off her engagement at the slightest of disrespect from her fiancé, fought for what she believed in, had a job and a life, and now you're telling me her desperate act of fighting with Amal for a man who has no respect for her is her true essence? NO!!!! This is not what we signed up for

As for Shahnawaz, I'm genuinely speechless, the makers tried to copy murtasim's essence and I really thought wow, another male lead who's an absolute goner for his wife, like murtasim was, he never chose anyone above meerab, she was his life and his everything! No one mattered to murtasim except his wife, his wife that he fought the whole world for! We all thought murtasim's essence would actually be respected and for Shahnawaz too his wife would be his whole world, but alas! What a big big huge disappointment this two timer is, spineless, disappointing, cowardice beyond comprehension and pathetic. Shahnawaz is not even half a man murtasim was!

Loved mehshah so much in the beginning just like everyone else but now I'm extremely disappointed, which is why I'm going to take my 10/10 ratings back and rate it down to 1(unless the story improves) Reasons being :- 1) No screen time to main leads 2) too much focus on side characters 3) mehrunnisa being so out of character by letting Shahnawaz disrespect her AND fight other woman for a man who doesn't even want her (even if she is in love the mehrunnisa we love wouldn't stand being disrespected even for love) 4)Shahnawaz having zero character development, a wussy mama's boy, two timer, disrespecting his wife and him always being seen with everyone except his wife.

EXPECTATIONS I had with this drama- 1) Shahnawaz choosing mehru above everyone else 2) Shahnawaz obsessing over his wife like she's his everything and him not even being able to breathe without her (much so like murtasim) 3) main leads having all the screen time 4) mehru being her real fierce self and never letting anyone disrespect her.

DID I MENTION MORE SCREEN TIME AND ACTUAL PLOTLINE FOR THE MAIN COUPLE?

When I started watching it, it felt very mid; the story wasn't really interesting, unique, or new. I didn't feel like watching it continuously, but after I watched two or three episodes, the chemistry between Ali Raza and Anmol Baloch really grabbed my attention. Now I'm hooked! Their chemistry is something else, and they look so good together. Today, the 27th episode came out, and tomorrow the 28th will be released, and I cannot wait for it! This is the kind of grip they've created on me. Their chemistry keeps you wanting more. Despite not having a very strong script and a typical storyline, Ali and Anmol truly shine. I love seeing them together and can't wait to see more of them!

The characters have become so close to my heart even though the storyline is barely understandable anymore, ali and anmol have some magic between them and its so clear with the way a spark is seen everytime they're on the screen.

Kabhi main kabhi tum fans are by far the worst fandoms I have ever come across in my life, being so childish and pathetic by mass downrating iqtidar on IMDb just because ali shared his success is beyond idiotic. But no worries, the fans have far more love for our actors to bring back those ratings up even if those people try to diminish all the work put into this show's success. I want ali and anmol to know that the love for them will always far surpass the pathetic hate that I hope they ignore. Love and only love to these beautiful, beautiful people inside and out (A. A)

We did not start this show for urooj and rafay, we did not start this show for Bijan and Amal, we started this show for Shahnawaz and mehrunnisa and only Shahnawaz and mehrunnisa, I thought long and hard about why there is no character development in shah's character then I realised he has to have some screen time to be able to develop his character, how are we supposed to keep our interest if you show nothing of the people we started the show for, the entire episodes are just shippable and full of fillers that has nothing to do with the main couple, no one wants to watch urooj and rafay, the most forced characters in the history of television, show mehshah's story or just shut down this show.

Honestly, first I thought that it would be a simple trashy romance ptv shows us. But even though, it is a trashy romance, it's better than what I expected. Mehrunisa's character has me hooked, Shahnawaz is a looser in love and I am so down for them. The visuals of this drama are out of this world, Anmol Baloch and Ali raza's chemistry is legit. I think Shahnawaz will be the reason of saman shah's downfall because he's already guilty of using mehrunisa because of his mother.

Whoever's saying that the show is trash is blind and just bitter about it doing good being under a newly developed channel, organically.
