Description Pakistani Drama 2017

Pakistani dramas (Urdu: پاکستانی ڈرامہ‎) refers to televised miniseries produced in Pakistan, with distinctive features that set it apart from regular Western television series or soap operas. Pakistani dramas can be set in contemporary times or in historical settings. Different genres apply to these two types, from romantic comedies and action series to fusion science fiction dramas. A majority of Pakistani dramas are produced in Urdu; however, over the past 10 years an increasing number of them are being produced in other Pakistani languages such as Sindhi, Punjabi, Balochi, Kashmiri and Pashto. The short miniseries format has been a trademark of Pakistani dramas since they began broadcasting on television in the 1960s. Pakistani dramas are popular worldwide, mainly in countries with a large Pakistani diaspora and also in the Middle East and India.[1]
