Guest House (Urdu script: گیسٹ ہاؤس) is a 1991 Pakistani comedy-drama series directed by Rauf Khalid that was produced and shown by PTV in the early to mid-1990s.
It is run by Mr. Shameem and his wife with the help of three permanent regular employees, Naveed, Murad, and Rambo.
He is holding a janitor's wiper like a rifle or machine gun, and thrilling background music is playing.
Later, it turns out that 'John Rambo, Cockroach Killer' is inspired by the main character of the Hollywood movie First Blood.
The character of Rambo was an instant hit and played a vital role in the popularity of the series.
Producers wanted to remove the character after the pilot episode, but his success made them decide otherwise.
[4] All the main characters associated with the guest house are shown as very simple people and, on several occasions, have been fooled by charlatans posing as PEERS (fake jogis) or film directors.
He is very stingy and doesn't like his wife's occasional shopping sprees, which are the main cause of their domestic problems.
He is a strict taskmaster and often deducts small amounts from the salaries of his employees in order to punish them.
However, he often finds himself in situations where he has to get involved to bail out his employees and save the reputation of his guest house.
He wears a sleeveless black T-shirt with a skull and crossbones and a pair of loose orange pajamas.
Rambo, after giving his best performance in Guest House, became very popular in Pakistan and then suddenly became a Lollywood star and played many lead and supporting roles in Pakistani movies.
Nasir Iqbal also performed Lala Peshori and Mr. Guide (very popular characters) of Kaliyan and Uncle Sargam shows.
