Mahira Khan’s Shehr-e-Zaat is coming to Indian television.
For her fans in India, they were first introduced to Khirad Hussain in Humsafar. Now, they just can’t get enough of the Pakistani actress.
The drama serial Shehr-e-Zaat featured Mahira Khan as the lead, Falak. It first made its debut in Pakistan in 2012.
Directed by Sarmad Khoosat, the serial follows the story of a fine arts student Falak as she goes from a privileged princess to someone spiritually enlightened.
Mahira Khan Role in Shehr-e-Zaat
Falak is an only child who has never come across anything that she can’t have, given the influence of her parents. She is as privileged as they come.
As the plot goes, Falak creates a sculpture of someone who is her dream guy. As fate would have it, she meets this guy in real life Sarmad Ansar. For once, the narcissistic-minded Falak loves someone more than herself.
The drama presents an issue for our female lead. Sarmad Ansar is a living breathing human and just as influential as Falak. And this leads to all sorts of friction for the entitled lead character.
Let’s see how Indian audiences react to Falak, whose character seems like the polar opposite of Mahira Khan’s selfless Khirad.
Shehr-e-Zaat will be aired on Zindagi. An exact date has not yet been announced.
