episode 5 aired

episode 5 of KURAMEY VADHAA’EE SALAAM was aired last night. the airing time has been rescheduled from 2130 hours to 2300 hours every Sunday night. most of the comments are on the rapidity of the story line. the story has to progress on a fast pace since this serial is 13 episodes long. despite these comments, some feel that the serial is very enjoyable. hajja and saeed stand out.

10 more to go

i have completed episode 22 of HINITHUNVELAASHEY KALAA. now am left with 10 more episodes from a total of 32 episode which was to be set in Ha. Kelai. however the entire seiral is 52 episodes long. the last 20 episodes of the serial will take place in Male’ giving it an urban edge. 
 
the entire cast seem to be enjoying their parts. they just love the comic touches in each episode. jimmy who plays a desperate addict visiting Kelai to rehabilitate himself says, ‘we are unable to shoot because during the takes we all burst in to laughter’. that’s what i call feeling the character. hope they do a great job.
