We have seen numerous plays revolving around men two-timing their significant others with a sultry seductress, and sometimes quite a few of them. Well, times have changed and it seems with upcoming television serial Dilruba the audience is set to witness a role reversal of sorts with the woman this time playing a whopping five men!
Teasers released for the show have female lead Hania Amir having quite a merry time as she has lovey-dovey conversations at different instances with multiple men. She has saved their numbers as ‘Boy 2’, ‘Boy 3’ etc on her phone. To one of them, she even goes as far as to say ‘Aap jaisa chahne wala to kisi khush naseeb ko hi mil sakta hai,’ effectively putting an end to the unchecked reign of philandering men on television who have pursued multiple relationships.
And coming to her love interests, Shehroz Sabzwari, Asad Siddiqui, Nabeel Zubairi, Syed Jibran, and Mohib Mirza seem to fit the bill of men whose hearts and minds this seemingly spirited temptress will play with. The teaser ends with what can be presumed is Hania’s older sister asking her ‘Yeh sab kya hai Sanam?’ to which she replies in a very filmi manner, ‘Dil lagi karrahi hun, dil lagi’. However, there are bound to be complications as some from her male harem-of-sorts also happen to know each other. The other teaser released shows Hania making a Tik-Tok video, lip-syncing to Noori from Superstar with all the wild moves.
What else can we expect?
The rest of the cast includes Marina Khan, Saad Azhar, Saira Wasti, and Ghana Tahir. Ali Hasan is directing the drama, and it is penned by Jo Tu Chahay and Kahin Deep Jalay famed, Qaisra Hayat. Hania is also starring in another drama Ishqiya opposite Feroze Khan, Ramsha Khan, and Gohar Rasheed, which is currently being aired on ARY Digital. Judging from the short teasers, it seems like Hania is playing a happy-go-lucky girl once again, just like she did in Anaa. But since Qaisra Hayat is known for writing deeply interlinked family relationships, some family drama can be expected from it. DilRuba does not have an airing date as of now.
