Airing weekly on Express Entertainment from Thursday to Saturday at 8:00pm, Mrs & Mr Shameem is slowly making its place on screen. With a strong story and solid cast, the drama is picking up pace with every episode.
The show's bold approach and honest storytelling help it stand out from typical dramas, offering something fresh to viewers.
Saba Qamar plays Umaina, a character who is strong yet vulnerable. Seeing Umaina grow, struggle, and deal with her emotions in a very real way, the drama shows that it is not afraid to show topics that are rarely discussed on TV, like unconventional marriage, postpartum depression, toxic masculinity, and gender inequality.
Alongside Qamar, Nauman Ijaz plays Shameem with ease, his performance adding warmth and depth to the unfolding story. “Nauman has immense range as an actor, only he could play a role like this and make it relatable,” Nisar said.
More than just a drama, Mrs & Mr Shameem discuss society and the need for acceptance through natural and emotional storytelling, along with honest performances.
