Pakistan’s most sought-after actor Humayun Saeed has been absent from big screens for more than a year now but fans will will finally get the chance to see him at cinemas once again for a brief time on 25th January. However, this time it is not in a movie, but a TV show. A TV show that has captured the attention of the whole nation ever since its premiere. It is of course Mere Pass Tum Ho.
The popular drama’s finale will be screened live at all the cinemas across Pakistan. The serial will be given the 8-10pm time slots at cinemas nationwide. The advance bookings at the multiplexes opened yesterday and the response from the public was incredible. Cinepax saw excellent turn around with shows in Karachi already being sold out. Lahore is usually slow in terms of advance bookings, but the numbers are rising steadily.

At multiplexes the advance is on record pace and many shows will probably be sold out a week in advance. This type of craze has not been seen for any film in recent years other than Avengers: Endgame. Yes! You heard it right!
There are still 9 days left and Mere Paas Tum Ho’s advance booking has the potential to go down as one of the biggest ticket sale of all time, which has rarely happened for any film in Pakistan. Mere Paas Tum Ho despite being a drama serial will be breaking advance booking records of blockbuster films.
In the past serials like Pyare Afzal have also been screened at cinema, however it didn’t really initiate a trend. This time around with the absences of Bollywood films cinemas can capitalize on screening of major dramas.
The massive success of Mere Paas Tum Ho can be an initiative or a trendsetter for other major drama serials in coming weeks to get a spot at cinemas. This will boost the business of cinemas in a good way.
So hurry up and book your ticket for the finale! All cinemas will be sold out most probably, so what are you waiting for? Book your seats now!
