Must watch 10 blockbuster Pakistani dramas!

Having to currently undergo a commendable transitional phase, the local film industry continues to thrive after a significant revival. On the contrary, the country's drama industry has always flourished tremendously after carving a distinct niche from the start. Be it classics like 'Tanhaiyan', 'Dhuwan' or 'Hawaein' from the glorious PTV eras, or the more recently produced 'Humsafar' and 'Pyarey Afzal', Pakistani dramas have with time shown considerable growth and prominence by projecting quality content having an embedded message. While the more recent ones seem to tackle social issues and stigmas attached to societal ills, the focus of scriptwriters and drama producers has shifted to delivering content responsibly which also imparts a message to the wider audience instead of just providing entertainment. Such dramas have gone to break unfathomable records of popularity and fame, while raking in staggering ratings simultaneously, primarily because of their gripping story, exceptional production and spell-bounding projection of real-life characters by immensely talented actors and their stellar performances. While most of these dramas are note-worthy deserving enormous praise, there are some which top the list, of all times.
