Another episode of Meri Zindagi Hai Tu and another twist of twists without any depth. The storyline is weak and repetitive and just plain boring, even though it tries so hard. But we can’t stop watching it because the chemistry between Ayra (Hania Aamir) and Kamyar (Bilal Abbas) is really so hot. So let's be honest: we only watch it because it's soapy, dramatic and just so bad.
It’s like Emily in Paris isn’t it? Mindless, with no social messaging, just love and fighting for love, scheming and betrayal that makes it so spicy to watch. If this drama did not have a superstar cast, it would be termed as being one of the worst dramas of the year. So here we are again, accepting that we like a drama that sucks and will keep watching it to the end because it's mindless fun.
Come on, surprise surprise. Kamyar goes back to his bad boy ways, Fariha (Vardah Aziz) feels like her plan with Khawar (Ali Rehman Khan) is now successful and randomly she’ll get Kamyar and Khawar will get Ayra. But no, Kamyar is in Devdas mode and Ayra is grieving her loss of falling for the wrong guy.
Fariha and Khawar keep scheming as Kamyar says he doesnt remember the girl he was with in the video and then miraculously the girl lands up in Ayra’s hospital after a suicide attempt and Ayra helps her out because obviously, the girl goes into a coma. And can we please talk about how in all of this, Ayra is a doctor?
Kamyar pops by with Fariha just in time to see Khawar with Ayra (obviously pre-planned by the evil F&K duo) and when Ayra’s dad finds out that Ayra and Kamyar have met over the suicide video girl, he announces that Ayra will no longer focus on her studies and marry Khawar.
Taking a breath here because wow, what a show and what really wild twists. It’s almost as if the writer got a few people together and said let’s think of the craziest story and then put them all together in one show. And that’s exactly what happened.
And that’s it. We’ve written Meri Zindagi Hai Tu as a show that has any storyline worth following and it’s now a guilty pleasure you can have playing on in the background as you do your lanes and think about what a great couple Kamyar and Ayra make.
