It was pure family entertainment at it's best, and artists like Omar Sharif became house hold names.
But there were others, like Amanullha, Sohail Ahmed, and Babu Babrial, to name a few who entertained the audiences with sheer raw talent. It was a great
pick me up from the run down Pakistani films, where after all the topsy turvy, a marriage between the Hero and his leading lady was always guarnteed.
However after a decade or so, we are probably again left at the mercy of the Evernew studios or something, where even breaking a "Matka" is deemed as an
aggression by the hero, badly in need of an hair cut.
With the demise of Hasina Moeen, and Fatima Bajia, even PTV drama serials are not up to the mark, and regardless to the fact my Punjabi is not quite to the
acceptable levels, I still enjoyed the alternative stage shows, but sadly they seem to be a thing of the past. Most of you may recall dozens of titles, but as the
saying goes, one to watch before dying is, "Begum Meri BBC". With Omar Sharif and Wasim Abbas in lead role.
Perhaps you folks can recomend others.

LOL i agree, i watch quite alot of Punjabi Stage Dramas, ive watched Urdu Dramas as well, but apart from few things in the Drama especially that mujara they have the dramas are cool. Yeh if they take the lady part out of it that its makes these dramas, despite the vulgar in it, really good.
They also have political message in Dramas, i remember two Dramas one was when mushy made it compulsry for MPs to have a degree, they made really nice Drama on it, its called METHI BARYANI. There was another on the Hadood laws passed by government, even though these dramas are vulgar they had really good message and that was how our society will head toward the path of western world in imoral activities.
Beside that there acting, espeically by Sohial Ahmed is awasome.
Also PUNJABI TOTAY dubbing on you tube is great and it show the artisitc side of Pakistani ppl, ive seen Indians trying to copy punjabis totay but they failed miserably as they dont have the creative content that ppl from Pakistan had. In Pakistan there is funny dubbing of english movies available, again very creative and thoughtful...
Also Indian sikhs are addicated to Punjabi Dramas every where. so its not all bollywood gloom at all.
If we take our inspiration and guidance from the Holy Qur’an, the final victory, I once again say, will be ours… Do not be overwhelmed by the enormity of the task… You only have to develop the spirit of the Mujahids. You are a nation whose history is replete with people of wonderful character and heroism. Live up to your traditions and add to another chapter of glory. All I require of you now is that everyone… must vow to himself and be prepared to sacrifice his all… in building up Pakistan as a bulwark of Islam and as one of the greatest nations whose ideal is peace within and peace without… Islam enjoins on every Mussulman to give protection to his neighbors and to minorities regardless of caste and creed.

Put it this way, wouldn't watch a Hindi drama to even save my self.
Would prefer an Urdu classic any day, stage dramas were a break from the mould, but sadly it's died down.
What can compete with the likes of, Dhoop Kinarey, Shakast-e-Arzoo, Nangey Paoon, and Dhouwan, to name a few.

Theatre can be used to send messages, tackle issues, entertain and more.
To encourage theatre you need to make it family friendly, theatre is somewhere were families should be able to go, watch a play, a show, have a meal afterwards, make a night out of things.
It should also be mobile, great shows and great acts should travel nationwide so that everyone can see them. Also it needs to be accessable. It seems we have a pool of talent and that same pool is used again and again. How amny fresh faces do you ever see?

Nargis, Dedaar, Nasir Chiyoti, Saajan Abbas, Zafri Khan (not all dramas), etc

The only name I recognise is Nargis, ( Actress ?). Never heard of the other crowd.
In any case the stage plays I have seen are good clean family entertainment.

LOL Nargis.... ask any Sardar about her, they go crazy for her. Yeh she's actress (expired or shall is say ex hera mandi) and has big affairs with high ranking ppl and in DRAMAs she get so much crap about all this.
The ppl im talking about would make these dramas very play unclean non family entertainment, but it also depends who is the director. Naseem Viki would gurantee you some form of crap in it.
Mindyou when u watch the recording of these Dramas(Gulabi), you will find even Niqabis present in the audience.

the dances that were like songs in the movies, turned into full time mujra.
watch shartiya mithay. It was the first true mega hit. it spawned a movie too.

I personally think when it comes to non scripted improvisation, legends of punjabi dramas (suhail or amman ulah or mastana) are way ahead of Omar.
Oh by the way those who wouldnt know, Mastana, suhail and amman were first introduced through PTV. roles of suhail and mastana were critically acclaimed.
a site for punjabi collection
