Bulbulay represents dark side of the culture and does not have any redeeming value in any of its episode. Its popular because it shows social phenomenon of youth unable to adjust in the society because of lack of education, marketable skills, and basic values of dignity of labour and honor.. The play is good depiction of a section of the youth in Pakistan, but fails to show them a path for redemption. I think that's a flaw of the show that astonishes me. Only sane character in the cast is Khoobsurat tries to salvage the show from total disaster. But the overall conclusion is for the unemployed youth to get married to a rich man's daughter and enjoy life lounging around. Pakistani youth need a better portrayal and some ray of hope.
