The very thought of watching a Kashif Nisar drama excites an avid drama viewer to the maximum. Right from Darr Se Jati Hai Sila, Jeevan Nagar to Raqeeb Se, Nisar’s body of work stands out from the rest. The forward-thinking director’s fixation on showcasing intriguing stories is known to all and sundry by now.
Known for walking the unusual path, Nisar narrates an unconventional story yet again. The maverick director has once again woven magic with his latest endeavor Mann Jogi, which presents Sabeena Farooq, Bilal Abbas Khan and Gohar Rasheed in never-before avatars.
In ‘Mann Jogi’ Shabbir (Gohar Rasheed) plays a violent man who gets to marry the love of his life Aliya (Sabeena Farooq). His anger continues to hamper their relationship and he soon divorces her. Shabbir realizes his mistake but it’s too late. He goes all out and wants Aliya to perform Nikkah Halala with Ibrahim (Bilal Abbas Khan).
Always ready to accept challenges in his career [Mann Mayal, Ishqiya, Laapata] and raising the bar with his performances, Mirza Gohar Rasheed is simply outstanding. Known to be an actress who stays true to every character that she is portraying, Sabeena Farooq delivers yet another sparkling performance. We were busy savoring Shahmir Sikandar and Fazal Bakhsh, and Bilal Abbas Khan hits us with yet another amazing character. We forget his earlier acts and delve into the world of Ibrahim.
Written by Zafar Mairaj and produced by Sultana Siddique, the Mann Jogi pushes the envelope and takes you on an exciting journey you have not experience in the prime time for a long time to come.
