‘Aisi Hai Tanhai’ has been an absolute gem this season when it comes to serials portraying issues people go through in our society.

A simple love story turning into a series of unfortunate events, the drama has kept an extremely busy audience engaged with its twists and plots. However, the character we adore the most in the drama is Ramsha played by Sadia Ghaffar; the writer has placed Ramsha in a character which is integral to pursue a love story between Hamza and Pakeeza. The transmission of a character will lead us to think that every bad person is not intrinsically evil in nature rather it is the circumstances one faces that marks them good or bad.

A trickledown effect causes Hamza to face the wrath of his own friends and family making him a ‘lost lover boy’. Whereas, Ramsha blames herself for the supposed death of Pakeeza and the current situation Hamza is in; fighting with her own love and demons the character successfully knits down all relationships pertaining to her life and becomes the last hope for the couple

Similarly, we see Sadia Ghaffar as a victim of a one-sided love story where Sammi Khan and Sonya Hussain seem to have a perfect fairy tale. In an unfortunate incident, Pakeeza becomes the talk of the town in the most negative manner which forces her mother, played effectively by the veteran Saba Hameed to poison her own daughter. A trickledown effect causes Hamza to face the wrath of his own friends and family making him a ‘lost lover boy’. Whereas, Ramsha blames herself for the supposed death of Pakeeza and the current situation Hamza is in; fighting with her own love and demons the character successfully knits down all relationships pertaining to her life and becomes the last hope for the couple.

Additional praises must be forwarded to Sammi Khan who has shown the difference between a novice and experienced actors. Especially in the last episode we have seen both Khan and Ghaffar at their very best

The reason we write this piece is because the drama has now reached its final leg and our interest has long been to see Ramsha tackling the evolving situations. Not talking about her looks while we give her credit shall be a mistake we don’t wish to commit. Comparing Ghaffar’s previous appearances to this, we have come to the conclusion that her latest transformation/revelation/motivation has done wonders as her presence on the screen has been nothing short of breath taking.

Additional praises must be forwarded to Sammi Khan who has shown the difference between a novice and experienced actors. Especially in the last episode we have seen both Khan and Ghaffar at their very best. We cannot wait to see how the story unfolds both as a serial and the character Ramsha!
