The play-inside a-play, titled “Mere Sultan Ka Fatima Gul Se Ishq e Mamnoon”, is a worn out romantic tale and nothing more. In any case, it is one that raises a huge amount of comedic circumstances for the makers to investigate and that too, to such an extent that every one of the jokes they could consider, they dragged the play on for two hours.
Despite the fact that Dawar Mehmood (the brain behind the play), who plays Imran Khan, Shafqat Khan (Qaim Ali Shah) and Taha (Nawaz Sharif) do a brilliant mimic of the politicos, it is Mustafa Chaudhry who takes the show as Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
