Baaghi drama on Urdu1 has really raised the bar this time with its latest episode. The story based on Qandeel Baloch’s life has finally picked its much-awaited pace and shown us a glimpse into the later life of the social media sensation.
Fauzia’s soul is on fire as she just can not digest the news of Abid’s fling with another woman. She questions her mother about what keeps men hooked to their wives in a marriage. To her utter shock, Fauzia discovers that her amma remains nonplussed by the idea of her husband’s affair with someone else. What is more, she advises her daughter to move on and compromise with the tragedy in her marital life.
But Fauzia just can not be at peace. She threatens Ruby to keep her hands off Abid, only to be warned back that her husband is soon going to divorce her.
The best part of the drama remains the divorce scene between Abid and Fauzia. Our heroine packs her bags and takes her son. But Abid deprives her of the right to raise him and orders her to leave the house.
As expected, her parents blame Fauzia for the ordeal. His father forces her to go back as she was responsible for the disastrous marriage.
Heartbroken, Fauzia realizes she has no one to look up to. Resigned, she returns back to her susral, while Abid continues his fling with Ruby.
But then her Kismet takes a turn! Fauzia gets a call from a modeling agency and gets invited to work in an ad in the city. Elated and excited, she shares the good news with her husband but he crushes her dreams in a jiffy.
The promo of the next episode shows Fauzia fulfilling her desie and finally stepping into the world of showbiz.
Kudos to both Saba Qamar and Ali Kazmi for nailing their characters so beautifully in this episode. Their chemistry is on-point and expressions so perfectly conveyed.
They made the audience live every scene, experience the joy and heartbreak. This week, Baaghi proved that the world will continue to stifle women, suffocate their talent and hush their voice.
However, only those who dare to defy the wrong an break the norms can rise to prove themselves.
For those who don’t know, Baaghi airs on Urdu1 every Thursday at 8 PM.
