The reasons for the opening of the much-publicized play Agar Tum Saath Ho joins Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz and Mawra Hocane in its first episode. But true to its name, the preset hype valorously carries the audience. They argue that the lead pair has somewhat beaten a predictable list of performances.
Familiar Roles, Drab Story?
Lately, Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz has been doing one project after another, and here he is yet again giving life to a character that is too close for comfort to the previous ones. His performance, while passable, has no spark for the audience, making it difficult for them to separate this one from past ones. Mawra Hocane, though a big on-screen presence, is again playing an emotional self-suffering role that we have associated with her in numerous dramas.
Fans readily pointed out on social media: Agar Tum Saath Ho appears to be on the typical formula of love and heartbreak. Based on the first impressions, it sets up a huge story that offers romance followed by conflict, along with some odds on whether it can offer any change this time.
Mixed Reactions from the Viewership
Mixed reactions started flooding the net as the opening episode triggered conversations about some love-hate chemistry between Zaviyar and Mawra, while others thought their performances had become a bit tiresome. Many viewership comments dictated that the romantic play would better offer something fresh instead of more about emotional torture and heartbreak.
A Twitter user says, “Mawra and Zaviyar are good actors- but why do they keep getting the same kind of roles? We need something different!” Another said, “The first episode was okay. But I can’t help feeling like it was a déjà vu of previous dramas. Just hope the story gets better!”
Will The Drama Go Fast?
Agar Tum Saath Ho, despite negative reviews, may gain its worthiness should the storyline take a different route. The subsequent episodes will tell whether depth and cliffhangers will bring something out of the storytelling sphere dominated by the previously loved character arcs.
