Pakistani stars Mehwish Hayat and Fahad Mustafa are making their much-awaited on-screen comeback after nearly eight years with the upcoming Eid al-Adha release “Zombied.”
The film’s recently released romantic track, “Zara Zara,” sung by Samar Jafri and released by Filmwala Productions, has attracted significant attention on social media for showcasing the romantic chemistry between the lead actors.
During promotional interviews, both Mehwish Hayat and Fahad Mustafa described “Zombied” as one of their most romantic projects together. Screenshots and clips from the trailer and song quickly circulated online, triggering widespread discussion among fans and critics alike.
While many fans praised the pair’s chemistry and glamorous screen presence, others criticized what they described as “bold” or “vulgar” scenes. Several users on social media questioned the growing influence of Bollywood, Hollywood, and Turkish-style romance in Pakistani entertainment content.
Some users also targeted the actors personally, criticizing their age and romantic portrayals, while others defended the film, saying audiences should separate fictional performances from real life.
The online debate once again highlights the ongoing divide in Pakistan over evolving entertainment trends, artistic freedom, and audience expectations from mainstream actors and filmmakers.
“Zombied” is scheduled for release this Eid al-Adha and is already generating strong buzz due to its unique mix of horror, comedy, and romance.
