‘O Mushtaq Khak’Are Pakistani dramatizations showing violence against women as commonplace?
The drama'A Mushtaq Khak' vented on Pakistan's private entertainment channel Geo has been under discussion on social media for the once many days and questions are being raised about the characters and stations presented in it.
In one occasion of this drama, the main character Mustajab (Feroz Khan) strangles hisex-girlfriend Shiza (Nimrah Khan) and grabs her by the throat and drags her on the lounge.
These scenes have sparked a debate over whether Pakistani drama is showing violence against women as a common thing in society.
Actors Feroz Khan and Sana Javed are playing the supereminent places in this play. Feroze Khan is portrayed as a demoralized, stubborn, egoistic and religious man who falls in love with Dua (Sana Javed) and marries her.
In the play, Dua (Sana Javed) is playing the part of a religious and loving girl who's veritably attached to religion and its training.
On social media platforms Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, while observers have praised the play, some have blamed the violence.
Barrister Umberin Qureshi reflected on the drama, saying that violence against women in the media is painful for women who have gone through it or are going through it, so it needs to be stopped and discouraged. Is.
The stoner, Mahi Mahra, wrote"This drama is actually showing the reality of men in our society where maters aren't suitable to raise their son duly and latterly they want their son to marry a woman who To further train religiously and innocently.
On the other hand, men have ladyloves before marriage and when it comes to marriage, they choose someone differently. That needs to be addressed.
Maters need to pay further attention to their sons than to their daughters because similar men come really toxic and creatures when they come grown-ups.
A stoner named Haba reflected on the scene of violence in the play and wrote,"O Mastak Khak is a veritably painful drama. It shouldn't be vented in Pakistan.
People then are formerly brainwashed to make them more loose."There's no need for anything differently."
On the one hand, women are openly expressing their views on the violent scenes in the drama, on the other hand, men are also seen opining on it.
A stoner named Haroon Ashraf said that"this drama should have been shown on the screen with a warning communication."
"We can fluently see indeed more violent material from the West.
It's all a performing art, not an countersign of what's being shown,"he added.
While a stoner named Mohammad Daud Khan asks,"Who writes, creates and directs the content we're creating and showing on our public or central Television channels?"
The story of the drama diurnal'A Mushtaq Khak'is written by playwright Maha Malik and directed by Ahsan Talesh and produced by Abdullah Qadwani's product house.
"People do not understand the subject, it's an individualist story."
Director Ahsan Talesh says that he's getting a great response to this drama but some people aren't suitable to understand the subject.
This is the story of an individualist. Parents give everything to their children but keep their religious beliefs. They do not educate him religion, also he's told by the path he takes. You do not impact him by religion, he was born into an Islamic family, that is all.
Asked about the drama's viral clip and story on social media, he said that he wasn't making violence against women commonplace and that he hadn't done so designedly.
"I've read the script numerous times. It isn't like we're homogenizing violence against women.
Does not a British man kill his woman in Europe? That woman is also silent due to numerous social pressures and Men are also beaten.
"We do not have warnings. We're sensible people."
When asked if advising dispatches are put up in violent scenes abroad, he replied that we don't have warnings. We're veritably sensible people.
Still, you say we homogenize as you drive to the office,"he says,"If we reflect society.
This is also what happens. In common parlance, it's called'Manjan', so take this drama as a story.
When Ahsan Talesh was asked if the main character of this drama would come to the right path like numerous other stories, he said with a smile that I can not say that.
Indeed moment in the society of Pakistan we hear the expression that marrying a boy will ameliorate. When Ahsan Talesh was asked if women are meant to ameliorate, he said that it isn't so.
"Those who have old taboos are stuck there,"he says. The girl who grows up with conceptions becomes a mama.
When asked if you too are championing the print in the play that a pious woman would correct her hubby, she replied that they show what happens in society.
"Sabir Shakir woman endure violence, we're justifying this violence"
Tasneem Ahmar, director of Aks, a media watchdog association in Pakistan, says that the dramatizations show that Sabir Shakir should endure violence against women, and that the man will recover in the future. She accepts it.
In a way, we're justifying this violence and exaggerating the notion of virility grounded on power."
She says,"In this drama, the motive of the idol (Feroz Khan) has been shown. Now the men who'll be like this will give the print that we've to be like this and the men who don't fit in this image."
When they come, they will use their power at least in the way that their machine will run.
