Geo and A & B Productions gave a warm welcome to Humayun Saeed when he graced the curtain raiser of “Bashar Momin” on March 11, 2014 at the Pearl Continental Hotel. The idea had been to celebrate the launch of the drama with its cast and crew along with some prominent socialites and media members.
Now we know that wherever there are celebrities there are gossips and one such that we have been hearing for the past few days is that of the unexpected arrival of a certain famous and well renowned actor and producer Humayun Saeed at the curtain raiser of “Bashar Momin”. A quick recall states the flurry of news and stories that initially he had arrived uninvited and later invited (by Ushna) to the “Bashar Momin” launch.
On the one hand we can safely say that Humayun Saeed’s entrance at the Bashar Momin curtain raiser, though was a matter of speculation for most, according to him, was based on the idea of fraternizing and mingling with other members of media. It is known that those owning separate media and production houses tend to keep to themselves due to a varying array of projects on hand etc. so the idea of getting together with other producers to celebrate their success may be unique but not unknown, after all Humayun Saeed himself did take the time out of his own hard schedule to come in good will and celebrate with the team of Bashar Momin and mingled with the cast and crew there.
On the other hand we have word or rather words from Faisal Querishi, that he, though pleasantly surprised at Humayun Saeed’s arrival, had, himself, not extended many invitations to the fraternity, and though this unexpected arrival did create a stir amongst the media masses there, he (FQ) did welcome him warmly and had greeted him with openness and a friendly manner.
To the point that even, the director of “Bashar Momin”, Syed Ali Raza Osama, also stated that for him it was a pleasant surprise to see Humayun Saeed there. He stated that, though during the time of “Main Hoon Shahid Afridi” he had not received an invite for the premiere by Humayun Saeed himself even though he had directed the movie, Ali Raza clearly buried the hatched and was glad to see him.
So, keeping all this in mind, the air is filled with a slight confusion as to who did what and who exactly invited who to the launch! Ultimately, Bashar Momin has definitely become the talk of the town, and its popularity can be noted growing day by day, via Television ratings and Social Media forums that show a clear view of the success that this drama will have!
