    Mannjogi starts strong with bold take on Halala

     

    Veteran producer Sultana Siddiqui is back with yet another impactful new series that has started making waves. Mann Jogi’s star-studded cast includes Bilal Abbas Khan, Sabeena Farooq, Gohar Rasheed and Asma Abbas.

    The first episode aired last night and it is a great beginning to what looks like an intense, gripping drama. Mann Jogi tackles a sensitive topic, how some people misuse the concept of Halala.

    The opening scene shows a mosque and the call to prayer. This contrasts with the struggle in the characters’ lives. Aliya is clearly upset as she prepares for a marriage she doesn’t want. Ibrahim is also struggling with his emotions.

     

    Mirza Gohar Rasheed stands out as Shabbir, Aliya’s first husband, who is deeply affected by what’s happening. Asma Abbas, playing Shabbir’s mother, adds to the emotional depth of the scene.

     

     

     

    The drama is written by Zafar Mairaj and directed by seasoned director Kashif Nisar.

    Bilal Abbas is playing the character of Ibrahim and Sabeena Farooq is playing the character of Aliya.

    With its strong performances, gripping storyline, and timely themes, Mann Jogi is shaping up to be a must-watch drama.
