Pakistani dramas are loved for their relatable storylines, natural acting and strong performances by actors. Another factor which endears them to the hearts of fans is the incredible music and soulful OSTs. Music has always played a very important role in making any drama a fan favourite. Shows like Humsafar, Khuda Aur Mohabbat and Ishq Murshid became the rage because of the mind-blowing music tracks they had in addition to other factors.
Pakistani music and Pakistani dramas are hands down the best exports of the country. The OSTs of dramas have become a big and important part of music, and all the huge artists we have make music for dramas. The year 2025 also ended with some soulful OSTs, which became staples in everyone’s playlists. Here are the top OSTs of 2025:
Meri Zindagi Hai Tu
Singers: Asim Azhar & Sabri Sisters Lyricists: Asim Azhar, Nadeem Baig & Kumail Abbas Composer: Asim Azhar
Meri Zindagi Hai Tu is a Pakistani drama starring Hania Aamir and Bilal Abbas Khan. It was highly anticipated, but the story has received backlash for being toxic and repetitive. The OST for Meri Zindagi Hai Tu, however, managed to win the critics and fans simultaneously. Asim Azhar has put his own spin on the old classic, and fans are loving the new version. Fans are streaming the song on several platforms, and it has become an instant hit since its release.
Meem Se Mohabbat was among the top Pakistani dramas of 2025, and its OST, Baat, was among the top songs of the year as well. The OST played a crucial role in lending the story a soft and romantic feel. Fans fell in love with it, and it was so in demand that Asim Azhar ended up creating another version for the finale episode. Baat was definitely a winner for this year.
Sher is another Pakistani drama which gained a huge viewership this year. The show had two OSTs, but the one with Arif Lohar’s strong vocals stood out. The drama was about family rivalry and revenge, and Khaada Aye was perfect to give it that aura. Arif Lohar’s strong notes and Faisal Kapadia’s mellow and mysterious sound made this one of the most played OSTs of the year.
Pamaal
Singer: Shahid Amin Lyricist: Tahir Abbas Composers: Saad Sultan & Shahid Amin
Pamaal is a Pakistani drama which has touched the hearts of millions. The music score of the show has also played a very important role in making it a success. The beautiful O Harjai playing in the background as they show the struggles of a common woman in our society is beautiful. The lyrics are soulful, and the melody connects with the emotions of the audience. O Harjai is a great addition to the best OSTs of the year for sure.
Karde Karam Tu Singer: Samar Jafri Lyricist: Samar Jafri Composer: Samar Jafri
Parwarish brought a youthful charm to Pakistani dramas with its Gen Z-centric storyline and young cast. The music track for the show was also phenomenal, and we saw Samar Jafri not just showing his acting chops but also his musical acumen. The two OSTs for Pawarish, Guzzarishein and Krade Karam Tu were superhits. They were perfect for the storyline, and fans from all age groups were able to find connection, spirituality and love for family bonds through these music pieces.
Sanwal Yaar Piya is a raw and rough romance, and this is reflected in its OST as well. The team behind this Pakistani drama took a different approach when they brought in the ultra-talented Javed Bashir for the OST, “Rangrez Mere.” His powerful vocals have made the OST for Sanwal Yaar Piya stand out, and fans are loving it.
Iqtidar was one of the biggest Pakistani dramas of the year 2025. The love story between Mehrunnisa and Shahnawaz Shah, portrayed by Anmol Baloch and Ali Raza on screens, was a winner with the audience. The OST also ended up becoming a staple in the show’s long run. It was played over and over again and reigned on reels and playlists.
Main Manto Nahi Hoon
Singer: Yashal Shahid Writer: Yashal Shahid Producer: Alex Shahbaz
Main Manto Nahin Hoon ended up becoming the most confusing Pakistani drama of the season. It came under a lot of criticism. The two things that stood out, though, were the performances and the music. Yashal Shahid’s melancholic lyrics and sound for the song Akhiyan were a hit with the audience and matched the overall vibe of this show.
Jinn Ki Shadi Unki Shadi
Singer:Natasha Baig Lyricist: Sami Khan Composer: Sami Khan
Jinn Ki Shadi Unki Shadi is another hit Pakistani drama. The show fell in the genre of horror-comedy which is unique and fresh for Pakistani television. The performances were top-notch and fans loved how everything from writing, direction, acting and VFX was worked on with complete honesty. The OST of the drama Banjarapun was also loved for the eerie vibe it created for fans. A good attempt this year.
Dayan
Singer: Shani Arshad Lyricist: SK Khalish Composer: Shani Arshad
Dayan was an ultra-filmy Pakistani drama. The show was famous not just for the acting, Mehwish Hayat’s comeback or Star-Plus vibes but also the very filmy OST. Every scene had Mehwish Hayat walking slowly and turning around on the song. It was at the tip of everyone’s tongues while the show was on air and it has dropped on this list as it was very famous despite not being a usual type of OST.

Pakistani dramas primarily revolve around family stories, featuring large families with complex dynamics and intrigues. These shows feature actors and actresses of all age groups, making the stories more relatable and realistic. Child actors and actresses often play an integral part in these stories, helping to move the narrative forward and making the scenes appear authentic and believable.
Many child actors and actresses work in multiple Pakistani dramas, making the stories more interesting. Recently, there has been an influx of young stars who have excelled in their roles and captivated the audience with their strong performances.
Here is a list of these young stars, and their efforts need to be acknowledged:
Aina Asif
Aina Asif is undoubtedly the most successful child artist in Pakistani dramas. She began her career with a supporting role in Hum Tum. However, she became a household name when she portrayed the title character in Mayi Ri, a drama addressing the issue of child marriage, where her performance was both convincing and authentic. Now at 16, she is being cast in lead roles as a young adult, often playing characters who are older than her actual age. She has largely succeeded in these roles.
Abu Huraira
Abu Huraira is a rising star who has recently begun appearing in Pakistani dramas. He has participated in several shows, but it was his role as Mohid in the blockbuster drama Meem Se Mohabbat that truly brought him into the spotlight. Abu Huraira portrayed a child with selective mutism, conveying his character’s emotions solely through his expressions. He successfully performed the most challenging scene in the entire show, demonstrating his impressive talent. Notably, he was able to match the performances of renowned actors like Asif Raza Mir, Ahad Raza Mir, and Dananeer Mobeen at such a young age. Abu Huraira is a valuable addition to the industry, and everyone is eagerly anticipating more from him in the future.
Aryan Sheikh
Aryan Sheikh is another talented addition to the Pakistani dramas. This young child has been able to overshadow so many big names in the drama Dastak. He played the child Shani, who is the reason Kiran, aka Sohai Ali Abro, has to go through a conflict with her ex-husband, played by Feroz Kadri. Dastak was a realistic drama, and all the performances were great, but Aryan Sheikh is a star to look forward to.
Ayan Ahmed
Ayan Ahmed is another very talented addition to Pakistani dramas. The actor has worked in several dramas up till now, but his stint as young Sarang in Sar-e-Rah was praised by everyone. He is currently seen in Sher as Sunita Marshall’s son, Sameer. He has done a fantastic job in both emotional and angry scenes. His scenes in the hospital with Arjumand Rahim and a few with the legend Salman Shahid are a treat to watch. He was able to hold his own in the presence of such big names.
Ahmed Usman
Ahmed Usman is another young actor from Pakistani dramas. The actor was noticed for his measured and serious performance in the drama Pinjra. He played a troubled kid named Aban. It was a difficult role with emotionally draining scenes. He gave a beautiful performance and got noticed for how good he is. He was recently seen again in Aas Paas, and he has grown up a bit.
Falak Shahzad
Falak Shahzad is a very talented star of Pakistani dramas. He has worked in several dramas, and he always shines on screen. He has been a part of shows like Kuch Ankahi, Guddu and Badnaseeb.

He will be a good addition to the industry as he grows up into an adult and takes on grown-up characters.
Rani
Rani was a crucial character in Zard Patton Ka Bunn. The child actress who portrayed Rani skillfully highlighted the struggles of child maids, often found working in affluent households in big cities. These young girls are forced into labor at an early age, and far too often, they endure physical and sexual abuse from their employers. The actress delivered a performance that was not only natural but deeply emotional, showcasing a profound understanding of the character’s plight. Her ability to convey such raw emotion moved many viewers to tears and solidified her as a remarkably talented young star, whose future in the industry looks very promising.
Amna Qureshi
Amna Qureshi was a remarkable addition to the drama industry. The young starlet played a significant role in the socially relevant drama Zard Patton Ka Bunn. She portrayed the younger sister of Rani, who dies tragically. Her scenes required a display of deep emotions and fear, both of which were evident in her performance. At such a young age, she did an outstanding job in this important show.
Ayan Qureshi
Ayan Qureshi is a new talent in Pakistani dramas. He recently portrayed an emotionally intense role in Zard Patton Ka Bunn, where he faced the challenging task of playing a character who witnesses his sister’s death while his father attempts to conceal the tragedy for financial gain. The young actor skillfully channeled his emotions, demonstrating remarkable talent and maturity far beyond his years. His performance was not only captivating but also deeply moving, showcasing his potential as a brilliant actor in the making. He never appeared out of place, further proving his ability to handle complex and heavy themes with grace.

Pakistani dramas are mostly based on emotions of love, anger, tragedy and forgiveness. Most stories revolve around how people find love around them and the most taught lesson is forgiving people who have mistreated you. We have seen some really good dramas like Hum Kahan Ke Sachay Thay, Humsafar and Dil e Muzter, where the protagonists end up forgiving people who have hurt them in some way. But real life is not all about forgiveness and even drama watchers want to see punishments being doled out sometimes. Thus, stories where revenge is sought and perpetrators and abusers are punished are immensely enjoyed by the audience. Here is a list of dramas that you need to watch if you are a revenge lover and do not want to see the wrong going unpunished every time:
Maat
Pakistani television has seen many sister rivalries in the last decade or so. Yes, people hate this trope now and one of the biggest questions is if there is a shortage of men in this country that sisters go after the same man. But where it all started is the OG drama Maat with Saba Qamar, Amina Sheikh and Adnan Siddiqui in the lead. Maat is also a big revenge story and if you hate the victims forgiving their perps in Pakistani dramas, the ending of Maat will leave you satisfied and you will be reiwnding the last episode over and over again.
Sang e Mar Mar
Sang e Mar Mar is hands down a gem to come out of the Pakistani drama industry in the last decade. The show blew over the audience and dealt with the themes of oppression, honour and yes, revenge. Torah Khan played by Paras Masroor became immortal with Sang e Mar Mar and it can be called as one of the best characters who you cannot hate despite whatever they do on screen. Torah redefined grey and Sang e Mar Mar is definitely a show that needs to be on your list if you love revenge stories.
Udaari
Udaari is a drama that brought the taboo topic of child abuse to mainstream television. It broke shackles and not only started important conversations, it was also able to entertain its audience. Udaari is also a double revenge saga. Ahsan Khan played the role of his career and his revenge arc will give you creeps but how the women of Udaari stand up and seek revenge will leave you satisfied in the end.
Balaa
Balaa is a drama with very strong performances. It is one of those shows where evil keeps winning one episode after another. Ushna Shah hits it out of the park with Balaa and you will hate her as she carries on her shenanigans but who is actually evil gets cloudy in Balaa. This show had one of the biggest plot twists in the end and it is a revenge story that will leave you satisfied after fatiguing you with a lot of tragedy.
Khaani
Khaani is the drama that cemented Feroze Khan and Sana Javed as superstars. The show was a mega blockbuster and it was inspired by a real life incident that occurred on the streets of Karachi. Khaani is a full blown revenge saga and it will leave the viewers satisfied as they did not make the woman lose the plot but she stood firm on her resolve and extracted revenge for the wrong done to her.
Deewangi
Deewangi is the drama that brought a big on-screen pairing of Danish Taimoor and Hiba Bukhari to the audience. The drama put Hiba Bukhari on the map while Danish became the superstar that he is today. This show also took inspiration from some real life instances and combined them with romance, mystery and revenge. Deewangi’s ending got mixed views from the audience as both sides were loved by the end of this drama but it is definitely one of the best endings of a revenge saga on Pakistani television.
Inkaar
Starring Yumna Zaidi, Imran Ashraf and Sami Khan, Inkaar is once again based on a real life incident. This is not fully the victim’s story but it is heavily inspired by it. Inkaar brought some of the strongest performances on television and it is a drama that will make you think and it will stay with you long after you have watched it. This is another satisfyng story that will make you fall in love with the strong performances of all the actors involved.
Ye Dil Mera
Though people fell in love with Ahad Raza Mir when he played Dr Asfandyar in Yakeen Ka Safar, it was Ye Dil Mera where he showed his true potential as an actor. His angst, pain, anger and determination to seek revenge was beautifully performed by the actor while Sajal Aly and Adnan Siddiqui were equally good. Zarnish Khan and Mira Sethi added the extra masala and thus came out a revenge saga anyone would love to binge.
Khaie
Khaie took the revenge spirit up a notch and it has proved to be a game changer amongst the recent trends of dramas. The late Khalid Butt, Faysal Quraishi, Durefishan Saleem and even the young star Shuja Asad proved their mettle in each and every scene of Khaie. It is bloody, it is gory and it will leave you satisfied. Khaie is one of the best shows to come out of Pakistan in the last few years and it will leave you wanting for more.
Noor Jahan
Noor Jahan that started off as a typical saas bahu show ended up becoming a great revenge story. From Saba Hameed’s Noor Jahan to Kubra Khan’s Noor Bano, this drama had so many mind games that it felt entertaining, mysterious and left the audience wanting more. Even as Nooroo Mama ended up making up with her kids, the audience wanted to know more about the dynamis of the new power game which shows how great and popular this show was.
Pakistan is a country where you do not see a lot of justice being served in real life thus watching some revenge on television is definitely something that will make people feel happy and satisfied. Which other revenge dramas are on your watch list? Share with us!

Top 10 Pakistani Drama Actors 2019 – Half of the year has already passed therefore this is a good time to talk about all those actors who so far have given the audience some memorable performances and most importantly did not compromise on quality. We firmly believe that choosing the right kind of projects is really important for any actor since only a solid script and a good director can bring out the best in an actor. It has been wonderful watching some of these actors grow over the years. Their powerful performances this year have made them few of the most sought after actors in the industry. The viewers wait for their projects and have complete faith in them. This list contains the name of some of the best actors of our industry who continued to impress the viewers in 2019 as well.
Imran Ashraf
This year Imran Ashraf proved himself like never before. There is no denying the fact that Imran Ashraf’s acting skills are phenomenal but choosing some of the best scripts this year made Imran Ashraf more popular and recognized than ever before. Ranjha Ranjha Kardi made Imran Ashraf a household name. Even those people who don’t follow Pakistani dramas got to know Bhola, Imran Ashraf, because his character wasn’t just a massive hit on television but Bhola’s short clips also went viral on social media. Even those people who know very little about Pakistani drama industry were curious to know who this actor was. When a character becomes an actor’s identity, it isn’t easy breaking free from it but Imran Ashraf did just that by playing a negative role in drama serial Inkaar which aired when Bhola was the talk of the town. Imran Ashraf not only made the viewers fall in love with one character this year but also managed make the viewers uncomfortable and upset by playing another which was poles apart from the other one. This basically shows how versatile Imran Ashraf is which is why he definitely deserves the top slot in this list.
Yumna Zaidi
Yumna Zaidi never fails to impress the viewers. She is a dedicated actress who once again made some really fine choices this year. After enthralling the viewers with her effortless portrayal in Dar Si Jati Hei Sila last year, Yumna Zaidi starred in Dil Kya Kare in a different role giving yet another solid performance. Her performance in Inkaar however has been the most appreciated one this year, so far. Yumna Zaidi outshines in a challenging role in Inkaar and always delivers her best performance in every episode. There are very few actors who take acting so seriously at such a young age and Yumna Zaidi is one of them. Her recent performance in Ishq Zah-e- Naseeb also shows that Yumna Zaidi only works when she knows that she can give her best. Yumna Zaidi is also loved by the viewers because she is very confident in her own skin. We are looking forward to more wonderful performances by Yumna Zaidi in the upcoming months.
Iqra Aziz
Iqra Aziz was part of two of the biggest and most liked dramas this year. She played lead roles in Suno Chanda and Ranjha Ranjha Kardi – two completely different genres and roles which had nothing in common. Iqra Aziz outdid herself in drama serial Ranjha Ranjha Kardi in particular and made the trials and tribulations of her character come alive on screen. Iqra Aziz proved that she can play a simple role just as well as a complex one. Iqra is definitely one of those actors now who are the reason why many of the viewers would tune into a new drama. After her first project this year, viewers are already waiting for what she has in store for them next. 2019 has started on a really positive note for Iqra Aziz and we hope that it will only get better.
Madiha Imam
Madiha Imam has her own standing in the drama industry. Her simple yet affective style of acting coupled with her overall personality gives her a definite appeal. This year Madiha Imam has been part of projects which can easily be termed as entertaining family dramas. The characters Madiha Imam played in Baba Jani and Mera Rab Waris were relatively simple but very well written and translated on screen with precision. Madiha Imam added more finesse to these characters and was the main attraction of the dramas she was a part of this year. The on-screen chemistry she shares with her co-stars is another reason why she deserves to be in this list.
Sami Khan
Sami Khan’s portrayals are always subtle and on point. This year Sami Khan acted in one of the biggest films and he is also part of one of the most liked dramas, Inkaar. Sami Khan always makes his presence felt with his realistic portrayals. He can make even the most flawed characters look appealing and lately he has done variety of characters. Shayan’s character in drama serial Inkaar has gone through different phases in these 15 weeks or so and Sami Khan has done justice to all these stages in Shayan’s life. Sami Khan always leaves his mark and we are hoping that his character in Ishq Zah-e-Naseeb will be equally interesting.
Shehzad Sheikh
There is no denying to the fact that Shehzad Sheikh has not only come a long way but has also carved his niche in the industry. Shehzad Sheikh is one of those very few actors who know what works well for them and he does justice to all the characters that he chooses to portray. Shehzad Sheikh might not be too experimental and he usually plays it safe but he does portray all his characters to perfection. In the recent dramas like Khud Parast and Ana, Shehzad Sheikh has showed his potential to the best of his ability and he is turning out to be one such actor who can not go wrong in his portrayal of any sort of character.
Sanam Chaudhry
Sanam Chauhdry is very selective with her work that is why she gets the option of playing unique and different characters while offering variety to her fans. Sanam Chauhdry has always been really good with her selection of dramas and because of doing limited work, she puts her heart and soul in her acting and breathes life into her characters. We have seen some brilliant performances by Sanam Chaudhry in the last couple of years and her winning streak has continued in the year 2019 as well. Meer Abru, the currently on-air drama is yet another example of how far Sanam Chaudhry has come and how she can carry the entire drama on her shoulders. Watching Sanam Chauhdry on screen is nothing less than a treat and her heart-touching acting sets her apart.
Sajal Ali
Sajal Ali is an undisputed queen of expressions. The way Sajal Ali brings her characters to life and portrays them on screen is unmatchable. Sajal Ali is well and truly a gifted actor that is why she has garnered a huge fandom and popularity over the years. Sajal Ali is also one such actress who despite proving her mettle, loves to challenge herself again and again, because of which she always bring something new to the table and wins hearts over and over again. Even though it is a known fact that drama Aangan has failed to impress the drama buffs but Sajal Ali remains the best and most admired aspect of the drama. The way she has played the dynamic character of Chammi is absolute perfection and in a drama like Aangan, Sajal has succeeded in making the viewers cry and laugh with her. Sajal Ali’s performance as Chammi in Aangan remains one of the best of her career so far.
Mirza Zain Baig
Mirza Zain Baig is comparatively new to the drama industry but he is one such model who defies the notion that models can not act because he most certainly can. Mirza Zain Baig is a model turned actor who is proving his acting prowess in one drama after another. His charming personality and great acting skills set his him apart and he definitely has it in him to convey the emotional journey that his on-screen character is going through. After giving impressive performances in Mera Rab Waris and Dil Kya Kare, Mirza Zain Baig is currently being seen in Hum TV’s Meer Abru and has really taken the level of the drama a couple of notches higher because of his phenomenal acting. Mirza Zain Baig is the find of our industry and we are excited to see what future holds for him.
Noor Hassan
Noor Hassan has been in the industry for a long long time and after appearing in so many dramas, Noor Hassan finally took a break and returned with something phenomenal to offer. Noor Hassan is currently seen in Meer Abru and he has come back stronger than ever. We have seen quite a few performances of Noor Hassan in the past but the one in Meer Abru is beyond brilliant. It is good to see that Noor Hassan decided to take a break and chose not to appear in substandard dramas with no substantial characters. It seems that this break has done wonders to Noor Hassan and he is now going to choose his scripts wisely, do selective, quality and substantial work and we wish him good luck.
The Pakistani entertainment industry may have its shortcomings and it surely has a long way to go but one thing where it is progressive is the non-cancelling nature of the audiences towards the stars. There is no stigma in being a leading actor and actress and marrying young. Many of our stars who are at the top of their game have opted to tie the knot very early in their careers and at a very young age.
People have still loved them and always judge them on their work rather than their marital status. Stars like Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan became super phenomena while they were married and had kids. Here are some of the stars who married really young:
Selfies are a huge part of everyone’s lives. It is a fact that no social media activity is complete without a selfie. Selfies have become popular over the last few years where people like to document the fun moments they are having with their loved ones. Clicking a selfie can safely be classified as a habit and what’s interesting is that the Pakistani celebrities are not exempted from the selfie fever. It is always interesting to see celebrity selfies where they put in a little effort for their fans and share their happy moments, get togethers with them.
Let’s take a look at the top 10 selfies of 2019:
Hamza Naimal Khawar Wedding Selfie
Hamza Ali Abbasi and Naimal Khawar had a wedding of the year which was not only celebrated but appreciated by everyone across the country. This technically is not a selfie but the official wedding photographer captured the beautiful moment and gave the fans enough reason to smile, by looking at the gorgeous couple clicking their first selfie together after their Nikkah.
Danish Shehwar Selfie
This selfie has a lot of meaning to it. It was shared by Humayun Saeed after that episode of Mere Pass Tum Ho aired in which Danish slaps Shehwar and insults him. Humayun Saeed showed the fans an enjoyable BTS from the shoot where Adnan Siddique is supposedly injured and pointing at Shehwar’s bruise.
Ayeza Danish’s 5th Anniversary Selfie
Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor were lucky enough to get the opportunity to go for Hajj this year. Ayeza and Danish have been married for 5 years and their wedding anniversary fell right in the time frame when they were in Madina and were about to leave Makkah to do all the rituals. This selfie is absolutely beautiful where Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor are standing right next to a date palm, depicting the beauty of blessed city of Madina.
Imran Ashraf Clicking Selfie For A Fan
Imran Ashraf unlocked a new level of success this year with his phenomenal performance as Bhola in Ranjha Ranjha Kardi. No surprises that when he walked the red carpet for Hum TV Awards, the fans could not stop chanting his name and wanted to have a selfie with him. Imran Ashraf was kind enough to take a phone of one of his fans and click a selfie, probably making his fan’s day. This again is not a selfie technically but shows Imran Ashraf doing just that and we can not stop smiling.
Hania Amir’s Awareness Selfie
It is a rarity that fans get to see their favorite stars and celebrities in a non glamorous, raw state. Hania Amir’s selfie must not be your typical glamorous celebrity selfie but the point that she put across by sharing this image of hers was inspiring and is something that should be spoken about. Hania Amir took it to her Instagram to show that she suffered from severe acne for some time and that it made her feel less confident but then, she decided to embrace it, be herself and stand against the beauty standards set by the society. Hania Amir’s selfie is a depiction of her courage and confidence. It sure must have inspired a lot of her fans to be confident and not let acne scars define their worth.
JPNA Boys Selfie
The selfie list won’t be complete if one of Ahmad Ali Butt’s selfies is not going to be a part of it. Ahmad Ali Butt is known for clicking some of the iconic most fun selfies with his friends. Usually his selfies are star studded and this one is no different. This selfie is all about the JPNA2 boys – Fahad Mustafa, Vasay Chaudry, Humayun Saeed, Ahmad Ali Butt himself and the director of the movie Nadeem Baig. We definitely like the variety of sunglasses worn by the boys in this selfie!
Shahid Afridi Selfie
Shahid Afridi is learning new ways to connect with his fans. This iconic selfie was clicked in Faisalabad where Shahid Afridi Foundation decided to have a meet up in order to promote one of his projects Road to Education. We can totally see the fans having their moment of glory seeing Shahid Afridi, Iqrar ul Hassan and Imran Ashraf right in front of them on stage.
Feroze Khan’s Selfie With Little Family Members
This selfie is absolutely cute. Feroze Khan shows he loves to spoil his nieces and nephews by taking them for car rides and having a party with them on the weekends. This is not the first time he has posted a selfie with his little fans and little members of the family. It is lovely to see Feroze Khan taking his mamu duties seriously.
The Oslo Selfie
Recently, a lot of Pakistani celebrities went to Oslo, Norway to attend IPPA awards and we got to see some amazing pictures from the event. This selfie definitely has to be one of the best clicks from the event where it is not only star studded but all of the celebrities are looking absolutely amazing. Zara Noor Abbas, Shehroz Sabzwari, Sadaf Kanwal, Asad Siddique, Shehzad Sheikh and Kubra Khan must be freezing but they did their fans a huge favor by clicking such a cute selfie.
The Pakistan Day Parade Selfie
Although the stars gathered to attend Pakistan Day Parade but they came to a conclusion that one selfie wouldn’t hurt. Osman Khalid Butt did the honors and gave us one of the best selfies of 2019. All the celebrities look amazing. Maya Ali looks gorgeous in pink eastern outfit. Osman Khalid Butt kept his attire eastern too and proudly wore Pakistan’s flag as a badge. Shehryar Munawwar and Wahaj Ali look dapper in suits.
This concludes the list of top 10 celebrity selfies of 2019. Which one of these is your favorite? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below.
It would highly be unjust to consider acting as a form of work as there can be no word which can best describe acting other than a wonderful talent.

Globalization is one such major factor that brings everyone together. As people continue to take their culture and norms in the rest of the world, they also bring a part of it in their own countries. This is one such way with which the fashion in any country evolves. Every country is on its own path towards modernism. Culturally rich countries take a lot of time and also find it hard to give up on their societal values and norms only to adapt to new culture and traditions. In any country, celebrities play a huge role in making the image and leaving an impression of their respective countries in front of the entire world. They represent their country on all platforms, therefore it is one of their biggest responsibilities to showcase the beauty of their culture and norms at all times.
Pakistani celebrities are taking on the world right now and because of that, in order to blend and gel well with the rest of the countries, they are doing everything to portray themselves as modern. In this race, almost every other celebrity does what it takes to match the criteria and meet the standards of modernization. Pakistan on its own is such a culturally rich country with its beautiful fashion. Due to modernization, a lot of celebrities have stopped embracing their culture and this is the reason, in films, movies, to some extent dramas as well as their real lives, they tend to dress up which is mostly not in line with the cultural values of Pakistan. In this scenario, those few celebrities who embrace their culture and always put modesty above everything else stand out a lot more. Being modern might be good to project a certain image of Pakistan in front of the world, however there are a few celebrities who have their own take on it. They have also contributed towards the success of show business by being a part of it, however, they have proved that no matter what, they are never going to compromise on their modesty to prove themselves and that is quite a statement in itself. This is the reason these celebrities are appreciated and celebrated by their fans, because they relate to them on a personal level.
Let’s take a look at 10 such celebrities who believe in dressing up modestly:
Sarah Khan

In this day and age where a lot of celebrities are losing touch with their culture, Sarah’s take on fashion is refreshing as well as inspiring. Sarah Khan is a big name in the industry and she has consistently worked hard to be where she is, therefore it is commendable that Sarah has not lost her charm and has maintained her style statement, which is all about modesty. Sarah Khan is also one of those few celebrities who does not agree with the idea of item songs because she feels they objectify women. Sarah Khan always dresses up modestly, she wears both eastern and western outfits, but she has always shied away from showing her skin. She always shows up on award functions dressed in beautiful traditional Pakistani dresses to prove that she not only embraces her culture but is proud of it too. This is the reason she is one of those very few celebrities who have earned a place in people’s heart and she is truly respected by her fans and followers.
Sanam Jung
Sanam Jung is also one of those few celebrities who has always dressed up modestly. This is the reason why Sanam Jung always showed up on award functions wearing traditional dresses, which made her stand out a lot more. Sanam Jung’s popularity sky-rocketed right from the very beginning and her graph only went up. The factor that helped her popularity a lot more was the fact that people found her relatable. Sanam Jung did a morning show for a few years and being someone who had to be in front of people on a daily basis, she maintained her charm and persona with the help of her modest dressing. Sanam Jung was never seen dressing up boldly to make a statement. She too believes in modesty and it is one of the best aspects of her personality. She wears both eastern and western dresses but she always picks such outfits which cover her up properly.

Aiman Khan
Aiman Khan has worked in the industry from a very young age. People have literally seen her grow up in front of their eyes. Being a part of industry which demands actors to look modern and keep on bringing changes in their styling, it was very easy for Aiman Khan to opt for different clothing and change her choices, but she chose not to do that. Aiman Khan had done some photoshoots with loud makeup and western dresses to make a statement that she is not a child artist anymore but after that, she didn’t do anything of such sort which would’ve put a dent on her image. Aiman continued to dress up modestly and evolved her fashion sense in a way which made her look a lot more rooted and graceful.

However, during the days when the designers would dress her up the way they wanted to, Nida always made sure to never wear such clothes which were not modest. Nida has time and again spoken about how she would always give briefing to the designers to never send her any traditional dress without a dupatta. Nida Yasir wears both eastern and western dresses but she layers them up and is always very conscious of not showing her skin or wearing tight clothes which would reveal her figure.

Eyelashes are not only protective barriers for the eyes but they also play a huge part in enhancing the beauty of the eyes. The eyelashes have become a beauty symbol and have been treated as such for decades. This is the reason, those who are blessed with beautiful, thick and curled up eyelashes immediately draw attention to themselves because this feature stands out more and is always attractive to people.
Pakistani celebrities are blessed with beautiful features. Each one of them is different but they possess beauty of their own kind. When it comes to eyelashes, they are no different and there are a lot of Pakistani celebrities who always draw attention to their eyes due to their beautiful eyelashes. The cosmetic treatment such as curling up with eyelash curlers, putting some coats of mascara as well as adding false or individual eyelashes also helps a lot, but those who naturally have good eyelashes have an added advantage.
Let’s take a look at the Pakistani celebrities who are blessed with beautiful eyelashes:
Sajal Aly
Sajal Aly is a doe-eyed beauty of Pakistani industry. She has the most beautiful and expressive eyes and to add more beauty to her eyes, her eyelashes also play a huge part. She has thick dark eyelashes, that she curls up to make her eyes appear bigger and more open. Sajal Aly usually goes for simple makeup looks but she never skips mascara because she knows that her beautiful eyelashes need some attention and love. Sajal Aly has thick eyelashes, this is why she is one of those few celebrities who doesn’t need to rely on false lashes all the time in photoshoots or dramas. She often only adds a pair of individual lashes at the outer edge of her eyes to give it a fluttery look, but she definitely goes without it most of the time.
Hira Mani
Hira Mani is blessed with naturally fluttery and curled eyelashes. This is the reason why on her social media feed, you will find a lot of pictures where she is looking up letting her eyelashes do all the talking. Hira Mani’s eyelashes are fine and curled up, this is the reason even in her most au natural state, where she is not even wearing any makeup, her eyelashes stand out a lot and add beauty to her eyes. It is also obvious in a lot of pictures that she even doesn’t add a coat of mascara to her eyelashes because they are naturally already very pretty and do not need any added layers to look better.
Neelam Munir Khan
Neelam Munir has risen to fame in the last couple of years due to the kind of work she has taken where she is challenging herself by taking up difficult and different roles. Neelam Munir Khan’s latest drama Kahin Deep Jale earned her a lot of appreciation and what made her performance even more realistic was that when her character went through trials and tribulations, Neelam Munir opted for a zero makeup look. She let her eyes do the talking, the only makeup product she wore was a mascara that made her already beautiful lashes look even more gorgeous. Goes without saying, she definitely has beautiful eyelashes that need bare minimum to accentuate and frame her eyes in a perfect manner.
Mahira Khan
Mahira Khan is well-known for her no makeup look and being comfortable in her skin. She is blessed with beautiful features and her eyelashes add more beauty to her uniquely shaped eyes. Mahira Khan’s eyelashes are short and fluttery but they are a bit longer on the outer edge of her eyes, this is why when she curls them up, they already add volume and give the illusion of almond shaped eyes. Mahira Khan is known for wearing individual lashes on the outer edges of her eyes to add a little volume to her eyelashes and give her eyes a bit more defined shape. Skipping all the falsies or even mascara, just curling her eyelashes is enough because they are naturally beautiful.
Saboor Aly
Being blessed with the same gorgeous genes as her sister Sajal Aly, Saboor Aly also has thick luscious and long eyelashes. Saboor Aly’s eyes look even more beautiful when she curls her eyelashes up. In her dramas, Saboor is one of those few celebrities who do not need to rely on false eyelashes because she herself has thicker and voluminous eyelashes. She has the kind of eyelashes that draw people’s attention to them and add more beauty to the eyes. Saboor plays it to her advantage and adds a lot of coats of mascara and curls her eyelashes up, which give her eyes a more defined and beautiful look.
Sonya Hussyn
Sonya Hussyn has beautiful eyes and eyelashes. The first ever project of hers Main Hari Piya got her a lot of attention due to her looks and her eyelashes was one of the main features that drew the attention of the people to her beautiful face. Sonya Hussyn has long eyelashes but now, she has veered towards getting eyelash extensions, which are not permanent and fall out with the passage of time. It shows that Sonya Hussyn too believes that eyelashes play a huge part in enhancing the beauty of the eyes, that is why she goes for eyelashes extensions as it was seen in her latest drama Ishq Zahe Naseeb. She naturally too has beautiful eyelashes.
Minal Khan
Minal Khan is the brown eyed beauty of Pakistani drama industry. She has beautiful eyes and eyelashes. Due to her fair complexion, the eyebrows and eyelashes draw the attention to them and it is because of that, she uses them to her advantage by adding a little amount of makeup to make them stand out and frame her face and eyes. She naturally has long and wispy eyelashes which when curled are enough to give her eyes a lot of openness, shape and beauty, a bit of mascara is all that she needs to give her eyes a glamorous look.
Hania Amir
Hania Amir is an eye candy of Pakistani drama industry. She is not only immensely talented but gorgeous too. Hania Amir is one of those few young celebrities who does not mind sharing pictures on social media with her fans when she is not wearing any makeup. She doesn’t shy away from showing how simple and gorgeous she looks in her natural state. However, her eyebrows and eyelashes are perfect and beautiful. She has beautiful eyelashes which when curled give her hooded eyes a lift and openness. A little bit of mascara is all that she needs to draw attention to her eyes because the black color of the mascara goes beautifully against her fair skin tone and immediately gives her eyes a beautifully made up look.

At the same time, it is definitely not easy performing with big stars of the industry. The new actors in this list proved that they have what it takes to make it big in the industry. Even though they worked with some of the finest and experienced actors but that did not shake their confidence. It is good to see the producers and directors working with new people.

She will be starring next in drama serial Sabaat alongside Sarah Khan. Javeria is good looking and talented, she will surely make a name for herself in the industry in a few years.

Gulzar Hussein from Basti Malook won the Ehd-e-Wafa viewers over from his very first appearance. The fact that Adnan Samad Khan was so perfect for the role he was shown playing, made him an instant hit.

Pakistani dramas are watched all over the globe where people can understand Urdu. The true to life stories, non-glamourized characters and very good looking actors and actresses attract the audience to Pakistani dramas. In recent times, we have seen many Pakistani stars getting global recognition after their dramas became hits. Hania Aamir, Wahaj Ali, Yumna Zaidi, Bilal Abbas Khan and Durefishan Saleem are a few examples of young stars getting millions of followers after their dramas became blockbusters. The most important factor that brings the audience especially younger viewers to the screens is the on-screen pairing. A good on-screen couple makes people forget and forgive any shortcomings in the story, direction or screenplay. We get some good on-screen jodis every season and recently these were the couples that ruled the Pakistani drama landscape:
Shibra And Shahmeer – Ishq Murshid
Ishq Murshid was a mega blockbuster for Hum TV. The drama falls into a roma-com and fantasy category but it was such a big hit that the makers dragged it needlessly and even screened the last episode in cinemas. The primary reason for Ishq Murshid’s success was the chemistry between Bilal Abbas Khan’s Fazal Bakhsh/Shahmeer Sikandar and Durefishan Saleem’s Shibra Sulaiman. The chemistry was so magical that many people want to see them together in real life as well. For sure the biggest on-screen hit pairing since Mere Humsafar, Shibra and Shahmeer from Ishq Murshid.
Mahnoor And Shahram – Jaan e Jahan
Mahnoor and Shahram played by Ayeza Khan and Hamza Ali Abbasi in the recently concluded Jaan e Jahan finally became a treat for Ayeza and Hamza fans who were waiting since Pyare Afzal. The fans waited for 10 years for this duo to get together on screen where no one dies and it finally happened with a magical wedding in Jaan e Jahan. For sure, another hit on-screen couple this season.
Gulzaib And Tabraiz – Jaan e Jahan
Another Jaan e Jahan pairing that was not to be a couple actually became the most loved couple on the show. People loved both Nawal Saeed and Haris Waheed as Gulzaib and Tabraiz. The best part about these two actors bringing their ace work was that people actually wanted them together more than Mahnoor and Shahram despite the story line that should have made people see them running apart as far as they could. A recent favourite for fans and surely a pairing suggestion for producers.
Zamda And Chinar Khan – Khaie
Khaie was a surprise hit as makers and actors were both worried if such a gorry story will work on television or not. It was not only a smashing hit but also gave the world another villain-heroine combo that became insanely popular. We all knew where the story was heading and yes, only one among the two will live but people still love the wavelength Zamda and Chinar had despite how black Chinar Khan’s character was.
Apanna And Barlas – Khaie
Apanna and Barlas from Khaie is another young on-screen couple that took the viewers by storm. People loved them from the very start and cried for them when Barlas got killed. Their powerful chemistry overshadowed all the shady dealings of Barlas Khan’s character and fans just loved Apanna and Barlas played by Mahenur Haider and Shuja Asad in Khaie.
Barbeena And Haji Mushtaq – Kabli Pulao
This story was not meant to become as famous as it actually became. It once again showed the world how a good script is the key. A couple with such a huge age difference ended up becoming everyone’s sweetheart. Mohammad Ehteshamuddin and Sabeen Farooq were phenomenal. Everyone was rooting for their love and this on-screen couple showed how subtle love is as powerful as a star-plusie dhishoom-dhishoom one.
Annie And Fakhir – Mayi Ri
Annie and Fakhir in Mayi Ri played by young stars Aina Asif and Samar Jafri made them overnight sensations. The drama though made on a sensitive topic became a smashing hit and people were in love with Annie and Fakhir. There is still hue and cry about the ending this on-screen couple got as fans just loved to see them together.
Natasha And Sherry – Jaisay Aapki Marzi
Yes they were not paired as hero and heroine but Natasha and Sherry played by Kiran Malik and Mikaal Zulfiqar are one of the best duos on Pakistani television. Their sibling bond showed on-screen and this brother-sister duo from hell can take down anyone within minutes. Jaisay Aapki Marzi was a mega hit because of these two and the poison they brought together on-screen. Surely, one of the best on-screen pairings of actors in the last year or so.
Zara And Kabir – Standup Girl
Standup Girl was an out of the box drama and all the actors were out of their usual characters. Same is true for the leads Zara and Kabir played by Zara Noor Abbas and Danyal Zafar. The unconventional casting worked wonders as they both fit into the characters and they both brought a lightness and comfort in their chemistry on-screen.
Hajra And Sultan – Akhara
A love bound with tragedy. Hajra and Sultan played by Srha Asghar and Faraz Farooqui were a couple who could not meet yet their love and chemistry was stronger than all the other couples around them. Despite limited screen time, they both made a place in the hearts of fans and the second Hajra was left a widow while Sultan passed away was a shock many Akhara fans could not recover from.

Pakistani dramas in 2024 brought fresh and unique concepts that resonated with audiences. This year also marked the return of several mega-male stars to television, solidifying its position as the leading medium in the entertainment industry. Male stars in Pakistani dramas enjoy massive fan followings, thanks to the predominantly female viewership. Actors who put effort into their roles often become household names, and 2024 was no exception. This year, many Pakistani dramas showcased quite a few remarkable performances that left a lasting impression on viewers.
From the biggest stars of filmmaking making a successful return to television, to seasoned veterans demonstrating their timeless craft, we witnessed some truly remarkable performances from Pakistani male actors. This resurgence not only highlights the talent within the industry but also showcases the captivating storytelling found in Pakistani dramas, which continue to engage audiences with their rich narratives and compelling characters.
Here is a list of the top 10 male stars who won hearts with their dramas in 2024:
Fahad Mustafa In Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum
Fahad Mustafa took the television industry by storm as he made his television comeback after over a decade with Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. A drama with a very relatable family story and acting that looked way too natural attracted the audience not just from Pakistan but worldwide where the language is spoken or understood. Fahad Mustafa as Mustafa was the embodiment of a true middle-class man’s struggles. T beautiful and innocent chemistry he had with Hania Aamir made this comeback land on the list of Best Male Performances in Pakistani Dramas for 2024.
Emmad Irfani In Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum
Emmad Irfani took a break from television but returned with the best performance of his career. He played Adeel, a charming villain, in the hit drama Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. Adeel’s scheming nature and undeniable charm made him unforgettable. Fans loved how he connived against everyone with style. Emmad nailed every detail, from his wardrobe to his expressions. His portrayal proved once again how talented he is. Adeel was the perfect foil to Mustafa, and their dynamic kept viewers hooked.
Zahid Ahmed In Gentleman
Zahid Ahmed is considered among the most talented actors in the Pakistani drama industry. The scripts he chooses and the performances he brings on television are always the best out there. Zahid Ahmed also came back on television with a bang and his work in Gentleman as Faris surpassed so many other superstars who were also a part of the show. Faris’s ego, insecurities, and corruption were intelligently brought to the screen by Zahid Ahmed.
Adnan Siddiqui In Khushbo Mein Basay Khat
Adnan Siddiqui played a sleazy poet in Khushbo Mein Basay Khat. He took a risk as he chose a pretty non-commercial drama but he ended up giving one of the best performances of the year. From changing his look and adopting a specific demeanor to giving expressions that bring a scene to life, Adnan Siddiqui’s performance deserved a spot on the list of best male performances in Pakistani dramas for 2024.
Bilal Abbas Khan In Mann Jogi
Bilal Abbas Khan gave one of the biggest hits of the year with Ishq Murshid and he was outstanding as Shahmeer Sikandar/Fazal Bakhsh but his performance as Ibrahim in Mann Jogi was something else. To dress down this much for a role and take on the responsibility to address mob violence is commendable. Bilal Abbas Khan’s Ibrahim also depicted the real face of a Muslim and this is something we should have more of in Pakistani dramas.
Gohar Rasheed In Mann Jogi
Gohar Rasheed is a star who is criminally underrated in Pakistan. He has always proved how good he is and that is what he did once again in Mann Jogi as Chaudhary Shabbir. A politician with a sinister value system who can misuse religion for his gains and at the same time a man who is in anguish on losing the love of his life was a dichotomy brilliantly balanced by Gohar Rasheed. This was one of the best performances from Pakistani dramas in 2024.
Faysal Quraishi In Khaie
Faysal Quraishi once again lands on the best performers list with his appearance as Chinar Khan in Khaie. A drama that was experimental for Pakistani television became what it became due to Faysal Quraishi’s manic presentation of a villain who made people fall in love with him in the end. Faysal was great in Khaie and fans loved him.
Mohib Mirza In Jafaa
Jafaa is a mixed bag but Mohib Mirza as Hassan will be remembered. He showcased Hassan as a mental health patient well but he also showcased what an abuser looks like. A difficult character to pick on but Mohib Mirza did justice to Hassan and his character’s story and arc were probably the best thing about Jafaa. Mohib Mirza did a great job and he picked a good role to get back to television.
Sheikh Mubashir Mehmood In Zard Patton Ka Bunn
Sheikh Mubashir Mehmood is a talented addition to the drama industry. He was able to shine when he appeared in Jeevan Nagar and he has done a great job as the supportive nephew Roshan in Zard Patton Ka Bunn. In a huge ensemble cast and some great performers, Sheikh Mubashir Mehmood stood out every week and his fans would like to see more good work coming from his side.
Sohail Ahmed In Standup Girl
Standup Girl is a type of drama that we need more of on our television. Sohail Ahmed once again showed why he is the OG. His beloved character of Nana Miyan reminded many people of their grandparents. His character was an open-minded grandfather who learned more to connect with the younger family members and also represented the problems faced by artists in Pakistan.
These were some of the best male performances of the year 2024 in Pakistani dramas. From the biggest film stars making their mark on television once again to seasoned veterans reminding everyone of their unmatched talent, 2024 was a standout year for Pakistani male actors. Pakistani dramas became a platform where these stars showcased their skills, delivering performances that resonated deeply with audiences. The blend of fresh energy from returning icons and the finesse of experienced actors created a memorable year for fans of Pakistani dramas. These performances not only captivated viewers but also highlighted the immense talent that continues to thrive in the world of Pakistani dramas.

Romance is one such genre which always gets widely popular among the drama viewers. It provides the kind of feel-good entertainment that any drama watcher enjoys tuning to at the end of a long day. Pakistani dramas although portray the realities of life, but the writers always add a fair share of love stories in every single drama. Some dramas do not focus much on the romantic equation shared between the leading characters and make the drama well-rounded, but then the viewers also come across such dramas where the entire focus is on how the relationship develops and the love story progresses.
Pakistani writers always try to come up with brilliant love stories and even if the drama is not purely about it, this aspect of the story stands out more when done well. Love stories are not only difficult to write but also hard to execute because bearing in mind the preferences of the audience is the biggest challenge the drama makers are usually faced with. The love stories which are conveyed decently doing justice to the emotion of love and respect between the characters always tend to become more popular in comparison to such love stories which are over-the-top and cheesy.
Over the years, Pakistani drama viewers and fans have come across a lot of beautiful and memorable love stories. In all these equations, the characters were beautifully written, also the scenarios which brought these characters together were such that made the viewers root for them. Strong-willed characters, fair share of obstacles, unique way of expressing love and strong chemistry – all these factors make the love stories work.
Here are the 10 popular love stories from Pakistani dramas:
Dr. Asfandyar and Dr. Zubia (Yakeen Ka Safar)
The pairing of Dr. Asfandyar and Dr. Zubia shook world of Pakistani drama fans because they were in awe of the beauty with which their love story was shown. Another thing which worked in favor of making it popular was the fresh lead pair of Ahad Raza Mir and Sajal Aly. Their chemistry was subdued but it was enough to make the drama buffs feel warm and fuzzy. It was a slowly developed story which started off on a bitter note but then the emotions of respect and love followed. Dr. Zubia was fighting her own struggles and Dr. Asfandyar was engulfed in his own miseries but they both emerged stronger.
Dr. Zubia dreaded that her past mistakes will continue to haunt her but Dr. Asfandyar proves it to her that he did not believe in judging her from her past. All the scenes of Ahad Raza Mir and Sajal Aly as Asfandyar and Zubia showcased their beautiful chemistry. The fact that their equation was reminiscent of Dr. Ahmer and Dr. Zoya from Dhoop Kinare added another beautiful touch to this story.
Anmol and Mohid (Dil Lagi)
The love story in Dil Lagi was a perfect example of what happens when two head-strong individuals come across one another and how they make their marriage work which supposedly they believe is not meant to last. The love story begins when Mohid gets involved in a one-sided love with Anmol but she has to work through all her misunderstandings to see that Mohid was the one for her. She falls in love with him and she falls hard because right when she accepts her fate, she is also reminded that she needs to cherish it more because life can be unpredictable.
The chemistry of Mehwish Hayat and Humayun Saeed was phenomenal in Dil Lagi and it was their pairing which elevated the level of this drama and made this love story unforgettable. This was a full on dramatic love story which was worth the attention and popularity it garnered. Their witty conversations and one-liners always kept the viewers entertained and made everyone fall in love with Anmol and Mohid.
Haider and Mishi (Besharam)
The pairing of Saba Qamar and Zahid Ahmed turned out to be a treat for the viewers of Besharam. It was a unique love story which showed when two strong individuals choose to stay together and fight what comes their way, their marriage works against all odds.The key point highlighted in the love story of Haider and Mishi was the communication. They always spoke their hearts and minds out and did not have to worry about being misunderstood.
For Pakistani drama viewers to witness a relationship like this was not only a good change but a breath of fresh air because usually the relationships continue to deteriorate due to miscommunication but in Besharam, the writer showed a very different perspective of how healthy relationships are formed and work. In Besharam, it was a treat to witness the love story of such a couple which came from two different worlds but ended up being perfectly compatible with each other.
Qalb e Momin and Momina Sultan (Alif)
Another beautiful love story that the Pakistani drama viewers got to witness in Alif. This is a perfect example of how the main story of the drama was not purely about their love story but it ended up being such an important part of the story that it left an impact and long-lasting impression on the minds of the viewers. Momina and Qalb e Momin did not leave a good impression on each other the first time they met, but when their path crossed again and they gave each other a fair chance, they fell in love.
It was a treat for the viewers to see such a beautiful relationship unfold in front of their eyes which was purely based on utmost respect, honor and pure intent. Momin never imagined seeing himself longing for anyone like he did for Momina. Momina was the first one to experience how Momin had changed completely and she loved him based on his present and not his past. Although the scenes of Momin and Momina were limited, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Sajal Aly’s couple wasn’t just beautiful together, they had a perfect chemistry which made their love story unforgettable. They didn’t choose a happy and definitive ending by deciding to stay together but the moments they shared were enough to make it a beautiful love story.
Faarah and Wali (Diyar e Dil)
The equation their couple shared in Diyar e Dil was simply sweet. Their love story was covered in the second half of the drama because of which it was well received as before them, it was all about the bitter experiences their parents had shared. Although Faarah got married to Wali unexpectedly because her father decided to strengthen the relationships. Faarah despite having the option of backing out does not do it because she decides to give it a chance and later, she finds more than enough reasons to know that she took the right decision by respecting what her father chose for her. Wali was already in love with the idea of being married to Faarah because he valued his relationships and kept them close to his heart, therefore his patience and perseverance made Farah fall in love with him.
In the final stages of the story it was interesting to see how Faarah eagerly wanted to make this marriage work but Wali gives her a cold shoulder just to set her free because he feels guilty for binding her in a relationship in which she is not emotionally invested. The growth of Faarah’s character where she goes from being bitter to completely in love with her father’s family and then her husband was beautiful. Maya Ali and Osman Khalid Butt’s chemistry and pairing was beautiful and nothing short of a treat for their fans.
Saad and Dua (Ehd e Wafa)
Saad and Dua’s love story is going to be remembered for a long long time. Those viewers who have been a fan of Korean drama Descendants of The Sun were in for a treat when they got to see a Pakistani version of that love story recreated in Ehd e Wafa. The man from the army and his lady love being a doctor. The relationship of Saad and Dua was refreshing and also perspective altering for the younger viewers of the drama because it showcased how important it was to have aspirations and goals, apart from getting married before establishing your careers and pursuing your education.
Ehd e Wafa was probably the only drama which showed that the marriage could wait and in the meantime, it was a wise decision to have the families on board. Saad and Dua approached their relationship with practicality and when they both were ready, they got married. Their humorous conversations were the highlight of their relationship and this why, whenever they got emotional, it hit home for the viewers even more. Saad and Dua’s love story was new and one of its kind in Pakistani drama history. Ahad Raza Mir and Alizeh Shah’s pairing was cute too.
Sameer and Gauhar (Ishq Zahe Naseeb)
The relationship of Sameer and Gauhar took everyone by surprise because the viewers of Ishq Zahe Naseeb did not expect that they would find themselves rooting for the couple. Sameer was fighting his inner demons but Gauhar came into his life and showed him that he deserved to be loved because he was completely worthy of it. Sameer found himself opening in front of Gauhar, something which he had never done before. It was purely the selfless love that Gauhar made him experience which laid the foundation of their love story. After the terrifying journey that Sameer lived half of his life, to see him coming out of it purely because of the driving force of Gauhar’s love was wholesome.
Zahid Ahmed and Sonya Hussyn made the love story of Sameer and Gauhar absolutely beautiful. The few times they shared the screen as a married couple and in the finale as a happy married couple waiting to start afresh was perfect. They both looked so good together and their love story although should’ve been more elaborated was a memorable love story to witness.
Gaiti Ara and Badar (Do Bol)
Gaitiara was forced into this relationship and Badar approached her love the wrong way because he felt it was right to be selfish in order to get married to the love of his life. Badar manipulated the situation in his favor and then did everything he could to come out of the guilt because he saw how badly Gaiti suffered. This love story became popular because of how simply and effortlessly it progressed. Gaiti and Badar were two different people but they had one thing in common – the feelings for each other which slowly developed into love because Gaiti saw how much heavy lifting her husband did for her.
Badar also learned to love Gaiti selflessly and that is when Gaiti fell in love with him. Hira Mani and Affan Waheed’s pairing was new and it took everyone by surprise how their chemistry was strong and just perfect. They made a perfect on-screen couple and made people fall in love with the simplest love story of Gaiti and Badar.
Saba and Fakhir (Khaas)
Saba and Fakhir’s relationship was beautiful because it was based on friendship and mutual respect. Fakhir loved Saba before she even knew it but continued to be an ear to her problems, lent her a shoulder to cry on because he genuinely felt she deserved the consoling after being stuck in a toxic relationship. Although Fakhir fell in love with Saba because he saw a striking resemblance between Saba and his mother but as he got to learn her more, he loved her purely for who she was. Saba also had enough reasons to fall in love with Fakhir because he restored her faith in love, marriage and most importantly, the faith and confidence in herself that she was entitled to be what she dreamt of.
The death of Fakhir left the viewers absolutely shocked but the beauty and sweetness of their love story still remains in the hearts of the viewers. Sanam Baloch and Haroon Shahid’s pairing was new but was the perfect pick for showing Saba and Fakhir’s journey full of hardships, struggles and then blissful marriage.
Hammad and Imaan (Khuda aur Mohabbat)
This was another love story which had a tragic ending but was memorable enough for the time it lasted. Hammad fell in love with Imaan hard, her love transformed him into a better version of himself. He experienced life the way he hadn’t before only because he wanted to prove how far he could go in loving Imaan. Hammad did everything he could in his might for Imaan and never once asked for anything in return because he did not want to burden her soul but the intensity and purity of his love was enough for Imaan to resist falling in love with Hammad too.
Although the love story of Hammad and Imaan did not have a happy ending, the love they had for each other was unique and the kind that is not experienced very often. Their few interactions were beautiful and the longing Hammad had for Imaan was tear jerking. Imran Abbas and Saadia Khan were at their finest in Khuda Aur Mohabbat and gave the characters of Hammad and Imaan a beautiful face.
