After a long wait, an Indian web series featuring Pakistani stars Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed has been released. The first episode is now available on the Indian streaming website Zee5 and Zindagi Channel, marking Fawad and Sanam's return to the screen after 12 years. The couple was last seen together in the drama serial "Zindagi Gulzar Hai."
In "Barzakh," Fawad Khan plays the role of Sanam Saeed's stepbrother. Asim Abbasi is the writer and director of the series, with Waqas Hassan and Shailja Kejriwal serving as producers.
The series revolves around a 76-year-old reclusive man who runs a resort in a remote valley and invites his estranged children and grandchildren to celebrate his life's grand finale—a wedding with the ghost of his first true love.
Main Characters in Barzakh
It has a talented cast, including Salman Shahid, Syed Arham, Khushhal Khan,and Franco Giusti. The story begins with three siblings reuniting for their father’s third wedding. Their father, Aaqa, is an old man who still has his wits about him.
