The boycott movement against ‘Barzakh,’ an Indian serial that had Pakistani actors and musicians in it, has succeeded in its objective. Fans of Pakistani drama were initially looking forward to “Barzakh.” But as soon as it was out, their joy gave way to disappointment.
The early episodes of the television series “Barzakh” had scenes featuring homosexuality, adultery, and obscenity, which caused controversy and sparked a national boycott movement.
“Barzakh” is a unique fantasy drama that sets itself apart from other tales. ‘Barzakh,’ a transitory place before the resurrection, is where a person’s soul resides after death, according to a philosophical belief that forms the basis of the plot. In situations where children overhear sexual noises, the novel controversially portrays two men in a loving relationship and draws a comparison to the experiences of the mother.
