ARY Digital has has the reputation of delivering one super hit drama after another and keeping the reputation alive, the channel is now gearing up to bring a sequel to one of its top supernatural thriller, Bandish. Although the sequel has been titled as Bandish 2, a whole new cast will be seen in this one. The release date is yet to be announced but the sequel’s teaser has certainly created quite a stir amongst fans.
Expected Storyline for Bandish 2
The spine chilling teaser for Bandish 2 has created a buzz about the sequel among fans and followers. The drama will be starring Sania Saeed, Affan Waheed, Amna Ilyas, and Areej Mohiuddin in the lead and is giving off some serious horror vibes.
Their’s seem to be a happy family with Sania Saeed as the mother goose, Affan Waheed and Amna Ilyas as the couple with a daughter and Areej Mohiuddin as the sister. But then there’s trouble in the paradise as the family feels the presence of a supernatural entity in their home.
Although we see a few cliched horror situations where Areej is pulled off the bed while sleeping, door locking with the child inside, the baby girl being possessed, Sania Saeed carrying a knife at her back with a creepy smile on her face and the usual television and lights flickering scene, the execution of all these has been tremendous in Bandish 2. And yes we can tell all these from the sequel.
Will The Sequel Meet The Bar Set By The Prequel?
Like its prequel, Bandish 2 has also been directed by Aabis Raza and written by Syed Nabeel and Shahid Nizami. While Hira Mani, Zubab Rana, Marina Khan and Farah Shah delivered exceptional performances in Bandish, the same is expected from the cast of Bandish 2. Sania Saeed and Affan Waheed are power house performers while Amna Ilyas is known to deliver some strong expressions. With the scenes that the teaser has shown, even Areej Mohiuddin is delivering spot on.
Usually it happens that a sequel to a hit franchise is often below par and disappoints viewers most of the time but this time, Bandish 2, looks as if its ready to set the bar higher for all supernatural thrillers to come on Pakistan television.
