‘Gul-e-Rana’
‘Gul-e-Rana’ was a novel based drama that depicted the love-hate relationship of Adeel (Feroze Khan) and ‘Gul-e-Rana’ (Sajjal Aly). The major twist in last few episodes of the serial was when Adeel who was projected as a villain throughout the serial, sobered down and became an ideal protector of ‘Gul-e-Rana’. The climax of the drama seemed slightly contrasting -‘Gul-e-Rana’ starts with a negative tone but ends on a positive indication.
‘Chup Raho’
