There was a time when Pakistani drama Industry was over-ornated in fabricating Iconic dramas like Tanhaiyan, Dhoop Kinary, Ankahi, Waris, Dhuwan, Alif Noon, Anghan Terha and many more, these drama haven’t lost their ethos till now and are still loved by people more than many of our new age conventional dramas.
If we look 10 to 15 years back we will still found dramas like Bezuban and others throwing shades on taboos of our society. These dramas had fecund content and a pragmatic message to convey.
Talking about the current content proposed by our dramas we sadly add here that there are a few factors that are ruling our drama industry which includes sister rivalry-factor, Talaaq-factor, Dusri Shadi-factor, Thappad-factor and Zalim Saas/Bahu-factor, these factors almost sums up most of our dramas.
What is the impact of these dramas? What are they promoting? Is this all we have to show? Every year there are hardly a couple of dramas that promotes something lone, rest all are same.
Recently the teaser of drama serial Jalan are released. The teasers clearly indicated that the plot revolves around a stubborn girl falling in love with her very own brother-in-law. The drama is criticized a lot by the public. People are now raising the question that what culture these dramas are promoting.
There are a lot of the senseless dramas running on our Television and side by side there is Ertugrul with a strong message and a brawny story line delivering a constructive message. Why would people not love such a drama? There are no two truths in the fact that Ertugrul makes more sense than majority of our dramas, which is why it is loved by the public as well.
Our nation is now fed up with all such baseless drams, we really want dramas that are constructive and meaningful not the same vague and vulgar dramas this is exactly what the latest trend of twitter say. #واہیات_ڈرامے is the trending number one on twitter today.
Here we have a few tweets of people representing their thoughts about our drama culture.

The fact that foreign dramas are running in Pakistan is a proof that our playwrights have not lived up to the expectations of the people.

The media is a platform whose power is an indisputable fact. It plays an important role in creating good or bad in society. If the media works in the right direction, a positive society can be formed and its negative tendency can lead generations down. Takes pic.twitter.com/pd6kj0ftpV— Ahmad khan (@4b_kami) June 13, 2020

Our playwrights should think that Pakistan is an Islamic country and built in the name of Islam and Islam never commands your wife to have intercourse with anyone else and you should not say anything to her.

The mistake that can easily get your claim denied is to fail. There is no ombudsman forum that can at least identify such a bund.

How the media is leading our young generation to destruction, how our moral values are being destroyed and how our young students are moving away from their culture and traditions on a daily basis.

In every drama of our Pakistan, mother-in-law has been portrayed in a negative role, but nothing like that. In fact, bad people are everywhere.
