Every industry has a star who breaks barriers that no one else has ever touched. Something similar has happened in Pakistan, causing a stir.
A web series in Pakistan has become a hot topic because it depicts homosexuality for the first time. As soon as the trailer for this series was released, Pakistanis were outraged, claiming that the series is bringing shame to Pakistani culture.
The name of this series is “Barzakh,” and it features famous actors Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed. Although the trailer has received a lot of praise in India, Pakistanis are not pleased with the homosexual storyline.
It’s not that the entire web series is based on this theme; rather, it features a character who is shown as gay. Directed by Asim Abbasi and produced by Waqas Hassan and Shailja Kejriwal, “Barzakh” is a mix of mystery, drama, and fantasy. Actors Salman Shahid, Sanam Saeed, and Fawad Khan are also being praised for their performances in this show.
