Noman Ijaz and Sarwat Gilani to play negative characters for the first time ever on Zindagi

Noman Ijaz & Sarwat Gillani who have wooed Indian audiences with their powerful acting and affable screen presence will return to Zindagi screen in never-seen-before-avatars. Both the actors will be seen playing negative characters in their upcoming shows on the channel. Noman Ijaz who will bring to life the character of Mian Gulam Fareed in Aaj Rang Hai will make you question whether people as bad as him truly do exist while Sarwat Gillwani’s portrayl of Zoya in Dil e Nadaan who under the guise of being a good neighbor destroys a marriage and 3 lives will leave you spellbound.

As Mian Gulam Fareed of Aaj Rang Hai, Noman plays the role of the only surviving heir from the Malkana’s lineage. Gulam Fareed comes from a staunchly patriarchal household set in rural Pakistan and believes that only a man can run the family or a country. He believes women are non-entities and exist to fulfill the pleasures of men. As Gulam Fareed not only does Noman bring out the epitome of villainy but brings an almost animalistic ferocity to the character that is extremely believable. Aaj Rang Hai that premiers on Zindagi on 3rd February 2015 at 10.30pm is an extremely gripping story that revolves around enmity and the power struggle between two brothers and their families and how women suffer because of their animosity. Set in rural surroundings the story revolves around the families of two estranged landowning brothers, Mian Yakoob and Mianji. Their children are married as Vatta Satta (exchange marriage). The story highlights the plight of women in a male-dominated society and how they invariably seek the help of peers and so called spiritual healers. The cast features a star filled ensemble of great talents like Noman Ijaz, Saba Qamar,Yumna Zaidi and verteran actor Sohail Ahmed

Sarwat as Zoya in Dil e Nadaan essays the role of the money hungry other woman that destroys her neighbors’ marriage, tears their family apart and is still dissatisfied even after she enamors her neighbor’s husband. She renders her role in an extremely convincing manner so much so that one would never believe that Sarwat has won acclaim for her innocent role in Kaisi Ye Qayamat. Dil e Naadan that starts from 6th February at 8:00 PM is a love story with a twist– it’s a story about a rich girl falling in love with her poor cousin and eventually getting married to him. But what happens when another woman comes between the two? The realistic journey of love from upheavals before marriage to the adversity faced after marriage is beautifully portrayed in Dil e Naadan.

Watch Noman and Sarwat’s enticing villainous portrayals in Aaj Rang Hai starting 3rd February at 10:30pm and Dil e Naadan starting 6th February at 8pm only on Zindagi
