Written by: Anwar Maqsood
Directed by: Qaiser Farooq
Cast: Bushra Ansari, Shakeel, Salim Nasir, Arshad Mahmood, Durdana Butt, Latif Kapadia
The talents of Bushra Ansari, Salim Nasir & Shakeel combine to bring you one hilarious scene after another. Qaiser Farooq directs this immortal comedy and directs it to perfection.
The story revolves around a servant, Akbar (Salim Nasir), previously a classical dancer, working at the house of a retired civil servant Mehboob Ahmed (Shakeel) and his wife Jehan Ara Begum (Bushra Ansari).
Mehboob Ahmed regularly seeks Akbar's advice on different matters, often with hilarious results. Arshad Mehmood playing the role of Chaudhry Sahib (Mehboob Ahmed's neighbor) is one of the trump cards of the play. His typical chaudhry accent and the way Akbar tries to imitate him is a source of much amusement. A host of prominent guest stars such as Moin Akhtar, Film star Lehri, Alamgir, Subhani Younus & Anwar Maqsood also add to the appeal of the play.
Although there is so much on offer, the highlight of the serial without doubt is Jehan Ara's ranter- the interactions that take place between Jehan Ara & Akbar with Mehboob Ahmed acting as a biased (towards Akbar) mediator between the two- one will want to watch these scenes over & over again.
