REVIEW:
-
Presented by Green Entertainment, “Gentleman” is setting popularity records. Humayun Saeed and Yumna Zaidi, along with Adnan Siddiqui, Khalid Anam, Ahmed Ali Butt, Zahid Ahmed, and Saqib Sameer, are performing their roles exceptionally well.
-
The drama’s dialogues are very powerful, thanks to Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar.
-
The direction of the drama is also commendable, but the car chase scenes are very weak and even kids can catch the flaws. It would have been better if outdoor scenes were shot more realistically.
-
Zahid Ahmed’s continuity showed a major flaw, with his mustache appearing real in some scenes and a poor imitation in others. This big jump calls for accountability of the makeup artist.
-
Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar, being a true Lahori who spent his life in Punjab, failed to bring the local Korangi Town touch except for the set. The markets and shops were well set.
-
Despite being marketed as an action-packed drama, the performance in the only action sequence was very weak. Action is a different and challenging genre, and the director should have avoided wasting time on it.
-
Initially, there was one episode per week with strong performances, but now the drama is being dragged out by spreading a single episode over two days.
-
Sohai Ali Abro’s performance is also powerful. Her dialogue exchanges with Yumna Zaidi were impressive. Another showdown between them is expected in the 15th episode.
-
Adnan Siddiqui is excelling in the role of Rehmat. His scenes with Iqbal Munna at his home were outstanding. If these scenes were in a cinema, there would have been loud applause.
