Production
In December 2023, the details of Hum TV's Ramadan specials were revealed which feature Ameer Gilani and Dananeer Mobeen as leads, and written by Syed Mohammad Ahmed. Principal photography for the series took place in Baku, Azerbaijan and Karachi, Pakistan.
Broadcast and controversy
Drama's mocking of the Shah Rukh Khan movies did not sit well with netizens, who demanded an immediate ban on the drama. Some were disappointed that Pakistani dramas are now making fun of another nation's drama for attention, while others were miffed that the dramas are promoting Indian movies. The controversy was also reported by other media.[4]
Reception
The series received a positive review in Dawn.[5] Youlin Magazine was far more mixed and stated, "Nevertheless, the show suffers from a dearth of comedy and relatability. The allusions to famous Bollywood movies is also a bit over dramatic, and has been criticised by netizens. On the whole, it makes for a good light-hearted watch after Iftar, if you have nothing better to do."[6]
