Seasoned actress Sania Saeed isn’t satisfied with the way women are portrayed in television plays. In an interview, she has rejected the line of reasoning that TV dramas only portray what viewers want. She argues it weakens their ability to engage intellectually.
She points out that characters in such plays are so simple that, whether you watch the first or the eighth episode, it doesn’t make a difference, because you understand everything the moment you start watching. While we agree with Sania S, given she herself has been part of showbiz for more than three decades, we wonder how her arguments will be perceived by drama producers.
