Issues with Pakistani Dramas:
I find some aspects of Pakistani dramas problematic. Marriage and family relationships can be portrayed as messy and complicated, like marriages between children of two brothers or even marrying close relatives like nieces.
There's often a reliance on leaving everything to Allah for forgiveness or punishment, which means characters don't actively resolve their conflicts. Many stories end with characters facing consequences long after someone wronged them, which feels more fitting for religious-themed dramas than family or romantic ones.
Additionally, there's a noticeable lack of physical contact in these dramas—no kisses, hugs, or even hand-holding. While some stories manage well without these, in some cases, physical touch could enhance the depth of relationships.
Pakistani writers sometimes structure scenes and screenplays in a way that leaves audiences confused. Scenes may jump abruptly or lack clear connections, making it hard to follow the storyline. This can be particularly challenging in romantic dramas, where characters may go from fighting to suddenly becoming parents without clear explanation.
Overall, Pakistani dramas predominantly focus on romantic and family themes. There's less exploration of genres like action, investigation, crime, or anime, which could offer more variety and storytelling opportunities.
