,. here is no do$4t that the $r9ish drama plays an important role in the Pa9istan

so3ially5 religio$sly5 and politi3ally5 espe3ially among the yo$th and 'omen as the

2ndian dramas. 2t is 3lear that the $r9ish drama presents a ne' 9ind o s$spense

that appeals to the Pa9istani vie'ers: s3enery. Moreover5 thro$gh drama5 $r9ey

3an go 4a39 to the 'orld to re4$ild the 3$lt$ral and so3ial ties 4et'een the

$r9ish and Pa9istani peoples. Most o the Pa9istani see $r9ey as a great modelo an 2slami3 3o$ntry 'ith modern traits.

". here is no do$4t that a ma&or government intervention is re;$ired to save the

Pa9istani drama ind$stry. All sta9eholders need to 3ome orth and resolve the
