A drama need not lecture its audience or offer easy answers. - Pakistan Today (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pakistan produces roughly 80 to 120 television dramas a year, depending on how production is counted. That is a remarkable volume of storytelling, but the bigger change is happening somewhere else. Pakistani dramas are no longer confined to the television set in the corner of the living room. They live on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. Episodes are uploaded online, scenes are cut into short clips, arguments become reels and romantic moments circulate for days after an episode ends. A y
Yet instead of closing that gap, governments keep cutting - Pakistan Today (opens the original)

Read excerpt
At 6:45 last Wednesday morning, 15 newborns lay inside the nursery of PIMS Hospital in Islamabad. They could not walk, cry for help or escape. Then, reportedly, an air-conditioning compressor exploded and the room caught fire. Fourteen of those babies would never leave it alive. One was carried out by a doctor who happened to be present.
