The drama series ‘Zard Patton Ka Bunn‘ has concluded, leaving a profound impact as a refreshing breath of fresh air on television. In an era where most dramas revolve around clichéd conflicts between in-laws or superficial glamour, Zard Patton Ka Bunn has stood out by delivering a meaningful message and capturing the audience’s attention.
This series touched on a number of significant social issues: the importance of girls’ education, the value of raising one’s voice for personal rights, opposition to heinous crimes like child labor, awareness of family planning, positive religious guidance, and a sense of responsibility in using one’s right to vote. It beautifully portrayed the simplicity and authenticity of village life, with each scene keeping viewers engaged from the very first episode to the last.
The title of this drama was inspired by a renowned verse by Faiz Ahmed Faiz, “Zard Patton Ka Bunn,” with progressive lyrics from Faiz’s poetry incorporated into the background music, enhancing the emotional depth of the story. Both Sajal Ali and Hamza Sohail did full justice to their roles, immersing themselves completely, and bringing the characters vividly to life with their performances.
Watching Zard Patton Ka Ban evokes a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of the golden era of classic PTV dramas. In 2024, if viewers are in search of an outstanding Pakistani drama, then this masterpiece, directed by Saife Hasan and written by Mustafa Afridi, is an absolute must-watch.
