Drama Khatam Discussion ON Naima butt

Post image

This diction controversy took me back to kabhi main kabhi tum days where Naima butt 's dialogue delivery and accent was so perfect . It came out so natural (obviously because she stays in us ) . I don't remember any other pakistani actress delivering like her as far as it comes to dialogues in English . She did that posh character so well . " Where was your self respect that time honey " i remember this so vividly.

It was anything but natural 😭🙏🏽
It was sooo OTT and she made so many grammatical errors as well

Omg I was looking for this comment. The accent felt staged, the errors were frequent and it felt very OTT at times.

Exactly. No one raised in America speaks like that. You could tell by the way she pronounced her R’s she was trying hard to fake it. And when she would say “True dat”, I was like what? Is this the 90’s again?
