    Huge fan of Azfar since Aag TV days. That was the first show I had watched as a kid where things were being openly discussed instead of being brushed under the carpet.
    He always had an original voice, it's great to listen to him share his experiences and insights.
    Also, would like to point out that we have always been appreciative of people from outside Pakistan, especially India. It's our own people who we are extremely critical of.
    We in Pakistan have a culture of not respecting our own heroes.

    I didn't add this podcast to my watch later thinking I don't know him, and not interesting.
    As soon as I heard him, all the old memories came back to me when I used to hear him and Mani on radio... Man I wish I could go back in time, the free range me, the new phone packages, the new internet, the simple life... How I miss it 😞
    Thank you for this, love and best wishes!

    Always such a nostalgia hearing Azfar! Such good memories! Thanks for this! Also, I was thinking why Azfar Mani don't do a podcast together, i think what they did on radio 20 odd years ago was pretty much podcast format! Thanks for voicing this. I hope it materialises soon!

    I don't do filmmaking anymore, cos of my diabetes. It's hard for me to work with big teams. So I have a photography studio and business now, and in my work, I try to pose my female models as confident women, and not damsels in distress. Even in my sitcom I mentioned earlier, Juggun and other female characters were all strong and empowered women. I am raised by a strong woman, and that's where I will always stand.

    It's so great to hear Azfar. We worked on a project very briefly back in 2006 when I was in Karachi. I was hired by him, on Mani;s suggestion. Me and my ex-wife used to sit down in his apartment to brainstorm and write script. He's one of the most creative people I know. BTW, I'm one of those people who did end up wasting a lot of money on film-school, lol. I wish Azfar has given me this valuable advice, back then.

    About Paisay, that project I started writing for Azfar, although we didn't even finish that project cos the producer didn't want to continue, but Azfar still paid me 30,000 rupees back in 2006, and that was a lot of money back then. So my experience with Azfar was great. He's a man of principles.

    I would like to add my two cents to your brief conversation about the state of education in Pakistan as I taught at a government school in Karachi for an year. The quality and standard of teachers is a valid concern but a greater issue is the salaries of our teachers. If a teacher is being paid 20,000 rupees, we can't expect her to produce thinkers and innovators. If we expect high standards from our teachers, we have to compensate them fairly. Another issue is the commercialisation of Education sector. When we have commercialised a basic human right and made quality education inaccessible to a large strata of society, we can't progress and prosper. 70-80% of our students are enrolled in either government schools or substandard private schools. When 80% of these kids are not getting quality education, there's no chance of them having a future.

    • @ThePakistanExperience
      @ThePakistanExperience  Рік тому +2

      That argument holds merit if we assume private education schools are doing a great job - they're not either, and they are probably getting better salaries there. Even the top earning school teachers in Karachi focus on students getting As rather than truly educating them.

    • @zahilakhan6496
      @zahilakhan6496 Рік тому

      @@ThePakistanExperience I agree that our private schools are basically factories who produce as many As as possible. I may be wrong but I do think a big reason for that is the commercialisation of education sector.

    I produced and directedthe pilot episode of a sitcom in 2008 with Mikaal Zulfiqaar and Juggun Kazim, and it was inspired by sitcoms like How I met your mother and Friends, but had a totally different theme. I couldn't sell it to any TV channels because they thought it's too expensive for a sitcom, and that I should have cast some newbies instead of all these big stars. It could have become Gohar Rasheed's very first project, had it been aired. Some producers rejected it because they thought the humor is too witty for our audience to understand, lol.

    To be honest iam an educator and teacher myself too. I have been teaching in Pakistan half of my life and now teaching in the UK. Unfortunately, both places are at extreme. I think there are other countries in the world such as Japan or Finland who really truely understand what is meant by education. Here in the UK or USA too or some other western countries and then in Pakistan it's both on extreme. 😢. I totally agree with Azfar, been living in the UK now it's been ages I have stopped watching Pakistani dramas or shows. It's full of currpt filthy useless content. Nothing socially uplifting for the new generation nor anything out of the box. They are not teaching anything to get the new generation stay in touch with their culture or roots or even religion. 😢😢😢😢😢

    However, I am glad that Azfar bhai pointed out Ali Abdullah's performance in this show. The presence of Mathira, Mani, Mustafa and Shafaat leaves very litttle room for Ali, leaving his potential underutilized. If he gets a show of his own, he will surely come out with flying colours.
    I would rather suggest Azfar bhai to rope in Ali Aftab Saeed. He would be an amazing addition to this show. His music and satire will be an amazing cocktail, given the freedom the artists get in this show.
