Senior actress Fazeela Qazi has criticized Pakistani dramas for showing unrealistic stories, saying that in reality, “not every poor girl marries a rich man.”
During her appearance on Sama TV’s Good Morning show, she explained that many dramas mislead people by presenting dreams that rarely happen in daily life. Since most Pakistanis belong to the middle class, these stories give false hopes and create unnecessary comparisons.
Fazeela Qazi to Receive Civil Award After Expressing Disappointment
She pointed out that dramas often repeat the same formula: a poor girl finds a job, meets a rich boy in the office, falls in love, and then gets married. In her opinion, this is not the real world. Usually, people marry within their own class, neighborhood, or profession. Giving her own example, Fazeela Qazi said she married an actor because they shared the same field and background.
The actress added that producers are selling unrealistic dreams to boost ratings, but in doing so, they are ignoring their responsibility towards society. Such stories not only distort reality but can also create frustration and social problems.
She also compared Pakistani dramas with Indian serials, recalling how actresses there were shown sleeping with full makeup, only to wake up looking the same. Unfortunately, she said, this trend is now being copied in Pakistani dramas as well.
Fazeela Qazi believes dramas should reflect real-life challenges, family values, and social issues, instead of glamorized fantasies that confuse audiences. Her remarks have sparked debate among viewers who feel that the drama industry needs to focus on authentic storytelling once again.
