THE WEEK THAT WAS

aaz (Usama Khan) and Mirha (Madiha Imam) think they are strangers who found love by 1 chance, but their fates were connected before they met.Black-and-white characters and a harsh socio-economic divide make for a good story, but leave out the nuance.
Usama Khan and Madiha Imam play up their soft sides, bringing life to their `meet cute`. But, like most romantic comedies, their interactions are very politically incorrect.
Maaz chasing Mirha seems fun because the audience is in on the joke, otherwise it would be considered workplace harassment. However, the writer does score an emotional point by allowing Maaz to be a soothing presence in the heroine`s life, rather than an angry alpha male.
Atiga Odho and Alyy Khan play the nasty couple from hell very well, but it is hard to understand how their son Maaz turned out to be a good man. Lurking in the background are hints of Maaz`s father`s fraudulent and criminal actions. Maaz has lived a stolen life that should have belonged to Mirha. This serialis simple, entertaining and popular, but could have been better with a faster pace.
