Sinf e Ahan - An Umera Ahmed Promising Drama for ISPR and ARY Digital..!!

Sinf e Ahan - Umera Ahamd Drama

Sinf e Ahan is one of the most promising new startups on AR Digital. It's a drama serial from the production house of Humayun Saeed and Nadeem Baig. He is a person who has generated masterpieces for Pakistani television and films, and mostly in collaboration with Humayun Saeed's production house. The most important thing about the play is that it is a joint venture with ISPR, and written by one of the most acclaimed young fiction writers slots of modern Urdu Literature named "Umera Ahmad". The drama serial is a narrative of six strong and brave girls from different backgrounds who are passionate to serve in the Pakistan Army in their respective fields of study. 

These young women have currently gathered at the Gujranwala Base for the ISSB examination and tests. It is must pass thing to be a part of the armed forces as an office. They have to go through many psychological, written, IQ, EQ, and then physical tests to prove themselves worthy of being a part of such a prestigious and disciplined institute. They are from different background and some of the remote area girls like one from Balochistan, played beautifully by "Ramsha Khan" has to break her tribal norms to be part of the Pakistan Army and pursue a career despite being a fragile girl. Then we see the Pashtun tribal girl named "Shaista", played in a great way as always we expect from Yumna Zaidi. Their family conflicts and their own dilemmas don't leave them from being a part of a test that would decide their future career and life path. 

Umera Ahmad has written each character in full length with its own specifications. We see an ex-army officer's daughter "Sajal Ali", who had topped the university in Electrical Engineering but was unable to find a good job, scholarship for further studies, and not even a good marriage match. Her brother is already a high-ranked SSG commando in Army. But she is equally confused and afraid of the test as the army connection won't work. Her ego asks her to be on top there as she had always been a topper. Then we see "Kubra Khan", a spoilt brat from an extremely rich family where her parents never had a good marital relationship, and it has affected her so badly on her personality and brought up. She is a licensed lawyer but suddenly gets a passion to join the army and be like her role model "First Lady General - Ms. Nigar". A legend but somehow her way to lead into the army as well. 

The important aspect of their lives and personalities tests are unfolded when they had joined all in one place to spend and participate in the test together. Here we see an old conflict is there between Sajal Ali and Kubra Khan, once the close friends and now the rivals, and the way turned towards the marriage proposal being rejected by the later. The reason was that Sajal wanted to knot of her beloved brother with her friend Kubra Khan. How it will unfold will be seen later. There is a Christian Girl, played by Syra Yusuf , and she is from a minority community and a poor family as well. She is teaching English Language and literature at someplace and wants hard to have a better life for herself and for her family as well. Her boyfriend who is a complete flirt is there to work against her desire to join Pakistan Army. 

The storyline of the drama serial seems promising, and then it is good that the girls are not just girls but mature young women who have completed higher education and are already on a verge of finding their independent career paths and names. Umera Ahmad is doing justice to the story, dialogue and to present her feminist approach that women can be storng like iron. The name of the drama serial "Sinf e Ahan" means the iron gender. This means the perception of the girls about themselves, and of the society is changing as they will be having a tough training at Kakul Academy, and then a hardcore life. They have to leave their luxuries, and their families need to liberate them from the age-old strong taboos that women are raised to get married, produce and raise kids and that is all. Here we see many supportive men in the shape of fathers, brothers, fiancée, and many are reluctant and fearful of the freedom of their ladies. 

The drama serial seems promising and it is focused on the main objective, to encourage the young women of Pakistan for joining the armed forces in different cores. Then it is definitely written in a good manner and the presentation so far is quite good with good scenic displays and actions being done. Nadeem Baig is doing a good job. Hope this presentation by ISPR is not at all disappointing like "Ehd e Wafa", despite being popular it didn't serve the objective well. A great audio-visual display and we want to see more of it, and it's the first gain of any drama or film in the right manner.
