Fans of the drama Ehd E Wafa had been eagerly awaiting the last episode that was due to be screened in cinemas across Pakistan on the 14th of March.
However, owing to growing cases of the global pandemic coronavirus in Pakistan, Hum TV has decided to cancel the final episode screening in cinemas, complying with the WHO guidelines.
“Hum Network Ltd being one of the leading media companies has always taken its responsibility seriously. In line with the above, keeping in view the WHO guidelines on Covid-19 pandemic, it has been decided to cancel the grand finale screening at cinemas,” read a press statement issued by Hum TV.
Although no date has been given, the network has asked fans to stay tuned for updates.
Ehd E Wafa’s grand finale was initially supposed to screen in cinemas across Pakistan, a day before it premiered on television.
Following the coronavirus outbreak in Pakistan and case number rising to 28, as a precautionary measure against the coronavirus outbreak, Cinestar Cinemas in Lahore, Atrium Cinemas in Karachi and Centaurus Cineplex Islamabad cinemas have announced that they will suspend operations starting Saturday (today).
