Quality Storytelling Propels Pakistani Dramas to Popularity in India: Fawad Khan

In a recent interview, renowned actor Fawad Khan shed light on why quality storytelling makes Pakistani dramas favourite among Indian audiences. He discussed the unique aspects of Pakistani dramas that resonate deeply with viewers across the border, contrasting them with the local productions in India.

Quality Storytelling Makes Pakistani Dramas Favourite

Fawad Khan attributed the popularity of Pakistani dramas in India to their superior storytelling. He emphasized that Pakistani creators have honed their skills in drama production, making storytelling a core part of their cultural expression. Unlike Indian dramas, which often resemble soap operas with a focus on melodrama, Pakistani dramas prioritize narrative depth, character development, and emotional impact. This mastery in storytelling has allowed Pakistani dramas to connect more effectively with the audience, offering relatable and engaging content that stands out amidst the melodramatic tendencies of Indian soap operas.

Contrasting Approaches in Production

Fawad noted that while India excels in film production, its dramas have seen a decline in storytelling quality over the years. He suggested that Indian dramas have drifted away from their earlier strengths, becoming more formulaic and less compelling. In contrast, Pakistani dramas continue to evolve, retaining their command over storytelling and engaging audiences with authentic and meaningful narratives. The difference in approach highlights why Pakistani dramas have become favorites in India, offering a refreshing alternative to the often predictable and sensationalized plots of Indian soap operas.

Besides discussing dramas, Fawad Khan shared insights into his personal life and professional relationships. He revealed that he remains in touch with Bollywood personalities like Ranbir Kapoor and Karan Johar, maintaining strong friendships despite geographical barriers. Fawad also spoke about his friendship with Mahira Khan and their upcoming film, “Neelofer,” which features Mahira as a blind girl, marking their third collaboration and promises to deliver yet another compelling story.
