They created a film that dared to show women as they are—uncovered, unfiltered, and free.Now, award-winning Iranian directors Behtash Sanaeeha and Maryam Moghaddam, along with producer Gholamreza Mousavi, have been sentenced by the regime for “propaganda,” “obscenity,” and screening a film without state permission.Their crime? Telling the truth without asking for permission.This isn’t just censorship—it’s a crackdown on creativity, freedom, and the right to exist without fear.Art is not a crime.Hair is not a threat.Freedom is not negotiable.Credit: @united4mahsa

This is the iconic table where I sat for hours and hours, days and nights; while directing and producing the first-ever pop chart show in the history of Pakistani media: “Music Channel Charts”. It all began in a small townhouse in Clifton, Karachi, where Combine Productions was originally based. My boss and executive producer, Ghazanfer Ali, gave me full creative freedom to shape the show according to my vision.We had a small but dedicated and hardworking team: Director of Photography Rashid Mumtaz, Jagdish Nanji on sound, Nadeem Kazmi as an assistant and Sheikh Khurshed Bhai managing the production house. Together, we created something truly special.Music Channel Charts launched the careers of Najam Sheraz, Shehzad Roy, Fakhar-e-Alam, Komal Rizvi, Collage, Milestones, Fringe Benefits, Nadeem Jafri, Sequencers, Aman, Naveen Naqvi, Aamir Saleem, Jazba, and many others—artists who became overnight sensations through this platform.Despite working with a shoestring budget, the videos we produced still live on in people’s hearts. MCC was a groundbreaking success that ushered in a new era of entertainment and music videos in Pakistan. I directed over 50 episodes and more than 80 music videos for various artists. Hours and hours were spent at this very table; crafting concepts that were raw, real, and unforgettable.Music Channel Charts first aired on NTM in Pakistan and was later broadcast on TV Asia in the UK from 1994 to 1996. From a humble table, we tuned a nation’s heartbeat to the rhythm of its own voice.The Journey Continues! ❤️💙Credit: @yasirakhtarworld #WhereDreamsFoundAFrequency #BehindTheScenes #PakistaniPopHistory #karachidiaries #MCCLegacy #CliftonDays #CreativeJourney #HumbleBeginnings #throwback #ThrowbackVibes #TVRevolution #MusicChannelCharts #PakistaniMusicLegends#ShehzadRoy #NajamSheraz #FakharEAlam #KomalRizvi #FringeBenefits #Milestones #MohsinRazaKhan #Bunny #JazbaBand #PopIconsPakistan #CombineProductions #GhazanferAli #TVAsia #NTMPakistan #PakistanZindabad #TVAsiaUK #ukdiaries

The story follows two social media influencers, Xara (Sabeena Farooq) and Rasha (Maha Hassan), who disappear after a glitzy party. Thus begins a grim domino effect, leaving one dead and the other clinging to life—until she, too, is silenced. The plot unfolds like a classic whodunit, but unfortunately, the suspense wears thin early on.Read full review(Link in bio) https://dramapakistani.com/hashtag-geo/@mehreenjabbarofficial @shah_yasir1 @sabeena_farooq @its_mahahasan @aliansari_a2 @usama.khan11 @raeedmuhammad #HashtagGeo #GeoTVDrama #SabeenaFarooq #MahaHassan #PakistaniDrama #DramaReview #ThrillerDrama #SocialMediaGoneWrong #CrimeMystery #DramaPakistani #NewPakistaniDrama #SuspenseDrama #MustWatchDrama #DramaRecap #PakistaniEntertainment #InfluencerLife #MurderMystery #GeoEntertainment #DigitalDrama #FemaleLeads #PakDramaBuzz #DramaTwist #DarkSideOfFame #Dramapakistani #dramapakistanireview

5 Things We Learned About Tan Man Neel O Neel from

5 Things We Learned About Tan Man Neel O Neel from Safee Hassan Sultana Siddiqui and director Saife Hassan explore the creative process behind narrative shifting drama "Tan Man Neel O Neel" in KarachiHesitation from Hum TVHum TV was initially hesitant to depict male rape and demanded the plot be removed. Fortunately, the team convinced management that this issue is both real and relevant.Moon Was Originally HinduMoon’s character was originally written as a Hindu — the gentle character we grew to love was meant to reflect treatment to minorities. The change was made to make the story more relatable to a broader audience.Character Revisions for Gender BalanceIn the first draft, Rabi was a dancer and Sonu'ss character was a social media creator. These roles were revised to avoid gender clichés and create more nuanced characters.Two Endings Were ShotOne version ended with an ambiguous mob chase after Sony, Moon, and Rabi — open to interpretation. The second version, which aired, featured the heartbreaking attack interspersed with emotional cuts.Real-Life Victim Images Were a Last-Minute AdditionAdding images of real-life mob violence victims was a last-minute decision by writer Mustafa Afridi — finalized just as the final sequence was locked#tanmanneeloneel #tanman #dramapakistani #dramapakistanireview #saifehasan #sultanasiddiqui
