Alhamdulillah this issue of changing the name of the drama kun faya Kun somehow got addressed. Thanks PEMRA for considering it. It really hurt the Muslim sentiments.
Finally pemra woke up! Shame on hum tv it should not have come to this. So many ppl are involved in a drama, not even one of them thought the original name was inappropriate!!! Mind blowing!
