Hareem Farooq plays a key role in the drama serial BISMIL. It is a telefilm which is currently on air on ARY Digital. In this gripping story, we find a love triangle between cruel, ruthless and betrayal. Starring the suave trio of Nauman Ijaz, a powerhouse performer of his time, Savera Nadeem and Hareem Farooq on her debut venture under MD Productions; Laal Ishq is doing remarkably well in terms of ratings and tends to gain momentum as the weeks are progressing.
Masooma (Hareem Farooq) is the core of the storyline and has a bone to pick and a harmful agenda. Masooma received a mix of reactions from the audience, people have never heard an urban woman say that she wanted to become Prime Minister.
Bismil – Love, Betrayal and Murder
The trending story that talks about a controversial second marriage Nauman Ijaz stars as Tauqeer — a rich old man, and Hareem Farooq plays Masooma — a gold digger lady! Masooma in the first place eyes Tauqeer’s son but then she moves to Tauqeer as, a decent step ticket to social life with decency.
Masooma & Tauqeer are a future couple in this story but these two morally damaged characters are being so hated on social media too. Both leads are flawed, but there is chemistry and tension that make it exciting to watch.
Hareem Farooq’s Performance as Masooma
Hareem Farooq made everyone go gaga over her performance as Masooma, a woman who would do anything to earn a fortune and doesn’t shy away from bending morals either. Her character is considered to be one of the most toxic on television today, and her antics have not gone unnoticed among fans of the drama. While, on the other hand, Masooma is an entirely grey personality and Hareem has decided to shift her gear into a relatively CHANGE department.
Sharing details about Masooma’s character in an earlier interview on Good Morning Pakistan, Hareem Farooq explained. Granted, the role caught her off guard at first. The truth is… when I read the script, I was just floored… Masooma is by no means innocent, and tbh, I kinda struggled with her sulkiness. Is not something personally I have inside me.
It was a little window to her actor inside details shared with me by Hareem. Saba said she has played difficult but dark roles in the past, using them based upon her own experiences but that with Masooma it was necessary to create a much deeper-rooted sort of darkness.
Public Reactions to Hareem Farooq’s Character
For one, Hareem Farooq is a fan favourite for so many reasons and while fans love her talent, some of them also have mixed reviews on the way she has played Masooma to date. For some, that depth in her delivery enraptures the audience. Others, however, are having a hard time believing that Masooma is such a money-grubber and double-crosser.
A major credit of Bismil’s success goes to the fact that it gets viewers attached emotionally. The desire to get married wealthy for the lavish life of Masooma becomes an extension of the greater threat of societal rigour and materialistic demands, rendering the plot relatable but disturbing.
Fans have gone to social media to share their responses. Some have expressed disappointment with the character, while others are proud of Hareem for taking on such a challenging role. Also, The pairing of Nauman Ijaz and Hareem Farooq is the talk of the town, being both at their best in doing what they are good at.

While most certainly are disgusted by Masooma, Hareem leaves her mark with this unforgettable role.
