A three episode story that revolves on the importance of beauty parlors in a woman's life. Midhat (Huma Meer) is a sweet adorable loving wife of Shahzad
(Sami Sani) who has nothing better to do except to insult his wife at every
possible moment and to carry out affairs with his secretary. Of course Midhat
has a loving mother-in-law, leftmenu adorable kids and leftmenu extremely
caring brothers-in-law, Fawad (Humayun Saeed) and Jawad (Aijaz Aslam). She just does
not have the love of her husband.
Shahzad's friend's wife (Naila Jaffrey) has a beauty parlor. She convinces Midhat to come to the parlor and viola! Midhat turns into Cinderella-minus the glass slippers.
Prince Charming (Shahzad) is stunned. He starts
taking her to his office parties and she impresses everyone with her
intelligence and beauty and Shahzad gets promoted etc etc.
In the meantime her house and kids are neglected and she soon realizes that
Shahzad is only using her to get successful and does not really love her.
Hence she returns to normal and Shahzad leaves for Dubai. Will she ever win
him back with her love?
The play had started really well but then I think Bajiya lost her main objective (much like in Tasveer). Humayun Saeed was
WASTED in the play. I think he should steer away from such meaningless
roles. Looks like the producer was a good friend of both Humayun and Aijaz
hence they accepted such roles. Huma Meer has done so many of these poor
neglected wife roles that is has become monotonous. Definitely not worth a watch. -by Gina
