'Yakeen Ka Safar" was rightfully the most astounding drama that ever aired on our television screens. The romance between Dr. Asfi and Dr. Zubia had taken the whole country by storm, with people shipping them all over. While the apparent theme of the has been romance and upholding the family virtues and moral values, there were a lot of times where the themes are a lot more subtle and thoughtful.
These themes were the reason that the show not only received commercial appreciation but also a huge amount of critical acclaim because as the drama progresses, it unfolds many extremely relevant and disturbing realities of our present society.
The way Yakeen Ka Safar has balanced the entertainment and educational quotient off the viewer is applause worthy. Here are some underlying themes and messages that you might have missed as a viewer:
When Zubia goes through unfortunate circumstances, the men of her family don't even want to see her face. However, after her repentance, Zubia's father supports her in whatever she does and shows immense pride in the maturity her daughter shows by apologising. An orthodox religious man, her father sets aside his staunch methods and becomes his daughter's strength before his son and daughter-in-law.
Yakeen Ka Safar gave us a behind the scenes glimpse into the lives of those who follow the medical profession. It showed us how doctors sacrifice their own time and family lives to serve the people of their country. How they're not in it for the money but as Khidmat-e-Khalq. How doctors actually have 36-hour long shifts, tending to each and every patient that comes into the hospital – whether it is practicing in remote areas, carrying out their duties regardless of their own health, and putting everything aside, and keeping patients on priority.
