Presently, the Pakistani media is flooded with numerous morning shows and serials. In the midst of these, Sheh-re-zaat emerged as one of the marvelously shot novels, that makes you forget that there is a screen between the audience and actors. Its transparency diffused the curtain between the stage and the viewers. Out of several works such as Hamsafar, by Sarmad Sultan Khoosat, Sheh-re-zaat has taken precedence over many others. The story line by Umera Ahmed, who has been one of the best writers and directors; her series of hits include Qaid-e-Tanhai, Meri zaat zarra-e-benishaan and Doraha; Sheh-re-zaat has added on to her list of credible highlights.
The plot revolves around Falak, who is precisely an embodiment of beauty and brains. Belonging to the elite class, she enjoys being a paradigm of prime focus of her parents and friends. She is the centre of attention and never been deprived of anything. Concisely, she controlled her world of endless desires and luxuries. Herself, a very pampered daughter of rich parents gets her way faster than she would blink. The usual happens when she falls in love with a handsome man called Salman. After a trial of initial resistance from Salman, he succumbs to Falak's wishes and they lavishly tie the knot. The grand wedding takes place attracting the attention of all high end parties in the society, following a lucullan feast. Life keeps bringing on-going parcels of excitement for Falak until destiny finally decides to doom her. Seemingly, without reason, Salman starts behaving strangely distant. Falak burns the candles to resolve the issue at a personal level, until she learns of her husband's extra marital affair with a worker in his factory. In all aggression, she decides to meet the new woman to ask her to take a dignified leave out of her husband's life. To her shock, the woman turns out to be ugly and loose in character. With that, Falak contemplates over the true purpose of life. Instead of forcing Tabinda away, she permits Salman to marry her. The blatant rejection by her beloved was enough for her to ponder about the driving force behind the whole universe. She begins to explore the actual value of possessions. She contemplates more deeply about nature and destiny. It was no less than falling off the seventh sky into a deep pit; she continues to cover her journey full of stones that pricked beneath her feet. Hopelessly, she started; however, attained victory. At last, Falak reasons every single breath she took, every clot of blood in her body and how this entire world is subject to immortality.
Falak eventually becomes the true achiever. Her husband reverts to her - who was shattered by Tabinda's betrayal. He finds that his wife had reformed wholly in terms of spirituality and belief, who now directed herself only to the Creator and not any finite affection. She extends compassion towards the Supreme Power who she discovers at the forsaking by her own husband, who once was the emperor of her kingdom.
Sheh-re-zaat, to me, has come beyond just a serial. I am not an avid serial follower; yet, this has by far been the most profound and impacting story outlines I have come across. The beautiful change in the woman just by believing in the power of nature elevated her integrity up another level. One aligns to the fact that every form worship is futile except the one directed to Him. The ultimate belief in Him safeguards the soul of a human off any blemishes. You reach a point when bowing to him activates a sequence of ridding of any undesired sediments. This entire practice is one of divinity, a cleansing of the walls of one's spirit that leads to a catharsis. To attain peace, the best way is to undergo an emotional purge to the satisfaction of one's mind, which ultimately outer performs every other material resource.
Falak walks across the righteous door by breaking the sculpture she made of a man and had found Salman to be a breathing manifestation of it. She places faith in her Master and regards every form of relationship as imperfect except God. Rightly so, "Dunya ki har muhabbat ko zawaal hai."
If only we signify, this earthly journey is precious and an ideology as strong can save lives eternally. For every breath is meditation and understanding the combination can transform your life.
Sheh-re-zaat: Full of deep life learning lessons. A course to recharging faith from scratch such that you stop fearing your future; it strengths the soul to build a connection where all you need is Him; challenges so massive that jog you to your destination - "Dil ajeeb shehar hai, ajeeb cheezain maangta hai, ajeeb cheezain kerne ko kehta hai" - An epic ending that makes you tear eyed yet complete in the best ever way that there is. An ending that cultivates in you an urge strong enough to revise, reform and remain.
