2) Sim Sim with a twist:
The viewers will get to witness for the first time the personification of Sim Sim as a character, instead of the traditional representation of “Khul ja, Sim Sim” as a mere command. Her powerful dialogues and the motivation she shares for guarding the cave make her an extremely interesting and layered character. She transcends the boundaries of good and evil, and comes across as a complex character whose narrative arc is only going to get better with each revelation.
3) Perfect blend of drama, action, and humour:
Alibaba’s flashbacks about his past and his beloved father serve as the perfect stepping point to the hero’s fate which is yet to unravel. This dramatic peek into his father’s quest paves the way for Alilaba to follow in his footsteps. However, the distraught relationship between Alibaba and his brother plunges us into a world of drama and emotions that is ripening with each passing moment.
Lastly, with an intriguing battle between good and evil, the show is bound to be replete with a gripping fight for justice and the events that unfold in this quest.
4) Aw-dorable Alert- Wholesome Relationships:
Nothing warms our hearts more than seeing the bond between Alibaba and the orphan kids. The kids see him as their caregiver who goes out of his way to provide them with a comfortable living.
Similarly, the admirable loyalty between Alibaba and his band of friends and followers speaks volumes about their camaraderie. Be it standing up for each other or enjoying a jolly time in each other’s company, the show throws light on the importance of cherishing bonds forged by friendship.
5) Rise of the Underdog:
What could possibly be more satisfying for the fans than watching the valorous Alibaba stand up for the rights of the common people? While his band inhabits the Mamuli Sadak area, he attempts to stand up against the condescending elite of Shahi Sadak.
Alibaba’s stand against privileged individuals about how every person deserves equal respect, regardless of their social status is undoubtedly powerful. Moreover, Alibaba represents the power of a common man of Kabul, who takes pride in his clan and is meant to etch the fate of Kabul!
