One of Sami Khan's best!
This is one of my favorite dramas of Sami Khan. Sami Khan play Mustaqeem to perfection! Mustaqeem's journey, from an irresponsible, impulsive person to a mature, thoughtful man was beautiful and portrayed with utmost brilliance by Sami. From the "tapori" to a lover to a friend in need to an obedient son, all shades were depicted wonderfully. From the first scene, mustaqeem' character kept me hooked, and I loved him from the get go. It's certainly not coincidence that he was named mustaqeem meaning "straight" or "that which pleases Allah" and he certainly lived up to his name!
His innocence in the initial episodes, the sweet relationship he shared with his mother and sisters, the way he's terrified of his father, sami enacted in such a way that I was mesmerized in each and every scene and Sami nailed it to a T. His love for mehjabeen was beautiful without any over affectionate scenes that would look forced. He was a sweet, simple man who dreamt big but didn't know how to reach his goals. His own actions and decisions, steered by his father's arrogance and headstrong attitude led him down a path that changed him for the better. His simplicity, truthfulness, and compassion towards whoever he met was rewarded in a way that he never would have imagined. His warmth, empathetic, and gentle nature showed in his relationship with his boss fiza. The way he "saved" her from her obnoxious husband, cared for her during her last days resulting in her not only loving mustaqeem but respecting him too. He was a self made man and what I loved about him the most was even after getting all the money, he still maintained that self respect and used that money to open up a school for the poor kids. Unknowingly, he did Fiza the biggest favor ever, and transformed the money that she left for him into sadaqa jariah for her. This was how thoughtful and generous mustaqeem was! Sami's "looks," attire, and mannerisms of a "tapori" were pitch perfect. The charm that was required of this character was exuded in a way that was evident even in his eyes. In the latter episodes, the depth of mustaqeem's character was displayed with sheer brilliance. He maintained his honesty, dignity and self esteem in the most difficult times of his life, despite facing the most difficult circumstances. Sami had amazing chemistry with both girls, but I loved mehjabeen! She always wanted a man who was not a coward and his journey turned mustaqeem and into a man who had the courage and ability to stand up for her. I loved everything about mustaqeem, almost, but the only thing I would change about him is that I wished he had called his friend at least once to ask how mehjabeen was doing after leaving her stranded at the train station at the mercy of her evil brothers. He abandoned her when she needed him the most, knowing she had no where to go, with her reputation down the drain and he was the one responsible for it all. But, he changed, his life circumstances made him become a man who erased his father's prejudices, followed his heart, chased the woman he loved and proposed to her! He was an unforgettable character and I loved watching him fight whatever life threw at him, never losing his honor and dignity in the process.
(I always wondered if haji sahab would marry masooma later on 😊).
