Her Comic Role “Nain Tara” In Chand Tara
Starring the real life couple as a reel couple, the drama starred Ayeza and Danish in lead roles. Produced by Momina Duraid Productions, written and directed by Saima Akram Chaudhry and Danish Nawaz.
Chand Tara was a Ramzan drama – usually the kind of dramas demanding impeccable comic timing – a HUM TV serial featuring Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor. Ayeza plays the character of a doctor and Danish Taimoor portrays the role of a software engineer. Ayeza Khan’s character was a first in that she had a full fledged medical career (something most heroines do not have in Pakistani dramas), but glimpsed a fun side to her with her love interest Chand and also her obsession with his madhouse of a family. Give the comedy drama a watch. A vast difference from her nuanced serious roles!
The Materialistic Mehwish In Meray Paas Tum Ho
Meray Paas Tum Ho graced TV screens in 2019, a romantic drama produced by Humayun Saeed and Shahzad Nasib under Six Sigma Plus.
Directed by Nadeem Baig and written by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar starring Humayun Saeed, Ayeza Khan and Adnan Siddiqui.
Ayeza’s character Mehwish is a materialistic housewife with ambitions bigger than her husband’s pocket and what he can provide her. She has expensive taste and wants to be seen as an equal compared to her rich friend, Anushey. She meets Shehwar, a rich businessman whom she develops a liking for, initiating an extra marital affair, but she was mainly attracted by his influence and wealth. Mehwish’s husband disapproves of her job in his office as they suspect her extra marital affair but she leaves them and starts living in with Shehwar. Ayeza essays the journey of a woman blinded by the greed for wealth, power and influence. And she did it so well that makers screened the finale in cinemas. Need we say more?
