Shikanja is a Geo TV soap serial that aired daily at 7:00 pm. The drama series is a TNI Entertainment presentation and has been written by Saira Arif, and directed by Kashif Ahmed Butt. Shikanja was an average soap serial which revolved around a house hold which had multiple issues among the in-laws. The drama featured a talented cast including Washma Fatima, Furqan Qureshi, Asad Siddiqui, and Azekah Daniel in the lead roles.
Today, Geo TV aired the final episode of Shikanja, which ended on a happy note. Rani was also punished for her wrongdoings. She ended up in a mental hospital after losing her child.
Shikanja viewers are liking the happy ending of the show, but many are criticizing Pakistani drama makers for repeatedly showing the same fate for evil characters. One fan wrote that the ending was far from reality, stating that after experiencing so many traumas, the characters did not lose their senses, but in the end, Rani suddenly went mad. Another wrote that drama makers seem to have only one conclusion for all dramas—turning the evil character into a mentally unstable person who ends up either in a mental hospital or at a shrine. One fan commented, “I loved the ending because I only watched the drama to see Rani’s punishment.” Another fan wrote, “This is unrealistic, where the family abandoned their daughter for the daughter-in-law.” Read comments below:
