The popular Green Entertainment drama serial Do Kinaray has concluded its 65-episode run, leaving a wave of outrage and debate across social media. The drama, which aired at 8:00 pm from Monday to Wednesday every week, reached a highly controversial climax today, sparking immediate backlash from its dedicated audience. Written by Rehana Aftab, directed by Syed Faisal Bukhari, and produced by Tehreem Chaudhary of Multiverse Entertainment, the serial centered on Dureshehwar, a ruthless and rude girl whose anger ultimately destroys her life. The cast was led by Junaid Khan and Momina Iqbal, alongside Amina Malik and others.
In the finale, the character Dureshehwar’s fate was sealed in tragedy. Despite her constant efforts, Waleed chose his pregnant wife and refused to reconcile. Unable to bear the final defeat and betrayal, Dureshehwar shockingly shot herself.
The audience reaction was swift and overwhelmingly negative. Many viewers felt strongly that Dureshehwar should have been given a second chance at redemption, arguing that the writer did a profound injustice to the character. Comments like, “The writer did injustice to Dureshehwar and Waleed’s second wife won over her,” dominated the online conversation. Another fan mused, “One thing is when there’s love, flaws are not noticed… I think they could have been together, but because people criticize, that’s why such an ending happened. Miss you, Dure.” A few viewers raised serious concerns, stating that the tragic ending also glorified a harmful act like suicide.
The finale was further scrutinized by many who pointed out that the entire last scene—Dureshehwar’s tragic suicide after taking a shower and wearing a white dress, leaving a message detailing her wrongs—was a near-exact copy of the famous last scene of the Turkish drama Ishq e Mamnu (Bihter’s suicide).
Despite the controversial storyline, the performances of the lead actors were universally praised. Momina Iqbal was singled out for her powerful portrayal, with one fan declaring her “the best actress.” The chemistry between the leads also sparked a new fan movement, with viewers demanding to see Momina Iqbal and Junaid Khan paired together again soon in a new romantic drama.
