Kudos to the team for delivering such a heart-provoking serial. It's great to see something inspiring, completely away from the family dramas.
It's a great drama with the message that no matter what and which country you belong to a soldier is a soldier till their dying day, for the love & patriotism towards the country. The soldier goes with a single motto " to save & protect their motherland. A soldier's family has a lot of courage and resilience, the example of Taimur's mother was brilliant. Overall the serial definitely gives you the feeling of nationalism and patriotism. The training programme ( which is more or less the same in all the countries ) gives us an insight into the drill, discipline and unity of the troops. Wonderfully portrayed and evokes emotion to be a part of the army. Major Usama was a true inspiration of brotherhood, bravery and commitment, the emotions of a soldier, the scene wherein he explains the true meaning of the national anthem gave goosebumps and his demeanour towards his martyred buddy's wife and the child was heart-provoking. The leaked photograph scene too was a great example of how the army takes care of its people.The call to rise above the call of state borders and the call of the country as ONE is the need of the hour and that should be embedded in us for a lifetime.
But there were a few flaws that were blatant on the face.
The character of Rabia( MAJORLY FLAWED) - who belonged to an army family and her retd col father is portrayed as regressive - trying to get her daughter married for 2 years despite being bright. She not knowing the meaning of the national anthem (it's embedded in the minds of a uniformed soldier and their family ) right from day 1 beginning from the dinner table, reflected badly on the men in uniform of the family. This character ( family ) should have been made a central plot point of the army
I wish Usman Muktar's character Capt Daniyal Safeer should had been better etched out instead of just a supporting and kabab-eating brother. I wish there were scenes between the brother, sister and father, they giving their legacy thoughts, and emotions to Rabia. The pressures an army family goes through when their loved ones are on the front grounds and how they deal with it. ( A common between Rabia's brother and Rabia's Ex)
All the girls were with super heavy make-up despite talking about it during the disciplinary action towards Mahajabeen, It should have been natural and nude. ( could see and feel the cake and maroon lipsticks ) . Arzoo Danial's character was the only one that could be seen without makeup. The costumes especially the drill and camouflage needed more detailing. This area is definitely not space for creative liberty.
TRIVIA :
My heart gives a similar beat, goose bumps and respect when I see my country's commandos, army, navy & airforce in uniform.
