KARACHI: If there is one Pakistani actor who had fans waiting for his drama debut, it is Bilal Ashraf. While he did make his small screen debut alongside Mahira Khan with telefilm Aik Hai Nigar
in 2021, and ventured into production with Khaab Toot Jatay Hain
the same year, Ashraf was yet to star in a drama. Soon enough, Ashraf announced that he will be making his drama debut with Ehteshamuddin’s Yunhi. Starring alongside Ashraf as the leading lady is none other than Maya Ali for the drama that is set to air on Hum Tv from February 5.

The teasers reveal that Maya Ali will be playing the role of Pakeezah, a modern girl who returns to Pakistan after some time abroad while Ashraf will be seen as David. The two seem to share an interesting chemistry, with Pakeezah first suggesting they get married as an ‘experiment’ only for the two of them to fall in love eventually.
