The recent Sharpasand episodes featured Hafsa’s suicide, which is being widely analyzed by viewers. Many viewers believe that Hafsa was a strong girl who should not have taken this step. Hafsa’s mother’s character is receiving severe public criticism for not calling an ambulance for her daughter in time. Watch here:
Social media users are calling out the writer and director for portraying a poorly written character on screen. Drama viewers have called Hafsa’s mother dumb or someone who lacks sense. One user wrote, “The girl was awake; the mother could have called a taxi. The director could have shown that she was calling a taxi but no taxi was available. Pathetic direction and story.” Another wrote, “What a dumb mother who could not call a taxi in an emergency situation like this.” Another commented, “The director and writer have put themselves in trouble after showing such a big flaw, where a woman couldn’t even call an ambulance for her daughter.” Another said, “The writer and director are fools. They have shown Karachi in a bad light; despite all differences, people help others on a priority basis.” Another wrote, “Why didn’t she book a ride? Why did no one show up to help? Instead, they were gossiping. Our dramas are showing total nonsense.” Read comments here:
