    Three upcoming Pakistani dramas you don’t want to miss

    What do we need to survive? Just food, water, and air? No way! For us Pakistanis, dramas are equally important.

    They are entertaining, and some aim to spread awareness in society. Not to mention, they balance all the feelings in one experience. Whether you watch a love story at the perfect time or a family drama, they keep us glued to the screen!

    The Current has made a short list of three Pakistani dramas with stories filled with love, drama, and, of course, family.

    1. DuniyaPur

    DuniyaPur is a name that suggests thrilling stories waiting to develop, suspenseful stories as hidden truths unfold. The drama is about the rising and the underdogs eager to disrupt established powers to exact justice.

    It stars Sami Khan as Mir Hassan, a brave police officer striving to uncover hidden truths and pave the way for positive change around DuniyaPur!

    Manzar Sehbai plays Nawab Dil Awaiz, which destabilises Mir Hassan’s truths through fear, coercion, and policing this town’s deeds!

    Alongside these are some of the most beloved acting personas of our generation: Ramsha Khan, Nauman Ijaz, and Khushhal Khan.

    The storyline, packed with suspense and family drama, promises to pique viewers’ interest in the comfort of life and work.

    The drama is produced by Multiverse Entertainment, scripted by Radain Shah, and directed by Shahid Shafaat.

    DuniyaPur airs on 25th September 2024.

    1. Baby Baji Ki Bahuwain

    The sequel to Baby Baji, Baby Baji Ki Bahuwain, is coming soon.

    The teaser highlights Baby Baji and Siddiqui Saab’s efforts to keep their children together, emphasising that children often only recognise their parents’ worth and wisdom after they are gone.

    The story continues with Baby Baji’s children, and we’ll see how their lives unfold.

    Will Asma forgive Naseer? Will Jamal and Azra stay together? Will Farhat and Wasif achieve their dreams? Stay tuned to find out!

    Written by Mansoor Ahmed Khan and directed by Tehseen Khan, the drama stars Samina Ahmed, Saud Qasmi, Javeria Saud, Sunita Marshal, and more. ‘Baby Baji Ki Bahuwain’ is presented by iDream Entertainment.

    Alizeh Shah and Affan Waheed pair up for the first time, and their chemistry is already winning hearts.

    The story revolves around a girl ready for marriage and a guy who falls for her at first sight. It promises a lighthearted, feel-good romance without the usual dramatic twists, perfect for a relaxing watch.

    Written by Samina Aijaz and directed by Ilyas Kashmiri, ‘Ishq Beparwah’ premieres September 16. Details on the remaining cast are yet to be revealed.

    So, which will be your next reigning favourite show

  • Pakistani media, stop obsessing over Sunita Marshall’s religion

    Pakistani media, stop obsessing over Sunita Marshall’s religion

    The country’s media has decided that the average citizen is not raging inflation but whether a fully grown woman has decided to convert from Christianity to Islam or not.

    In an interview with Youtuber and journalist Maliha Rehman, actor Hassan Ahmed, Sunita Marshall’s husband, was asked about how he deals with the negative comments, especially regarding his marriage to the ‘Sar-e-rah’ actress. The actor responded that it is his deepest desire that his wife converts to Islam, but understands that these things do take time. He further went on to say that Sunita will only come towards Islam when she notices the positive inside him.

    But newsflash for the two of you, Sunita isn’t special just because she ‘could’ convert to Islam. She’s a fully grown human being who can dress how she wants and follow what religion she chooses. It is shameful how this is a topic that needs a 10 minute long discussion.

    The discussion arose just a few weeks after Sunita was questioned by controversial Youtuber Nadir Ali about her religious beliefs. She calmly handled the situation saying that it was her choice whether she chooses to remain a Christian or convert to Islam. But the fact remains, Sunita’s religion is not something to debate, and it’s shameful that her husband is commenting on personal matters in the public sphere.

    We were incredibly happy to witness how a flood of celebrities and social media users applauded the ‘Khuda Aur Mohabbat’ actress for bravely handling Ali’s misogynist remarks, but it doesn’t mean she needs to be subjected to this kind of questioning time and time again. This is the Islamic Republic Of Pakistan, where under the law, people from all kinds of faiths are allowed to practice their religion without any fear.

    It’s the year 2023, you have people leaving the country because they’re unable to make a decent living, so obsessing over whether Sunita Marshall will become a Muslim or not is irrelevant. Celebrity tabloids, please do better and let her live without feeling like her religion is in the spotlight all the time.
