Very Filmy is a 2024 Pakistani Ramadan special television series written by Syed Mohammad Ahmed, directed by Ali Hassan and produced by Momina Duraid of MD Productions.[1] It stars an ensemble cast of Dananeer Mobeen, Ameer Gilani, Bushra Ansari, Mira Sethi, Ali Safina, Mira Sethi, Ukhano and Nabeel Zuberi. It premiered on Hum TV on 12 March 2024.[2]

Premise

Despite their diverging paths, Daniya and Rohaan feel compelled to marry and are intertwined in the fabric of love by destiny. Rohaan, returning from overseas (Azerbaijan), is reluctant to wed a Pakistani girl he hasn't met. Nevertheless, due to parental pressure, he consents. Unexpectedly, they both discover love blossoming just around the corner.

Cast

Soundtrack

The official soundtrack of the series 'Tere Rang Rang ' is performed and composed by Ahmed Ali, and lyrics by Syed Mohammad Ahmed.[1]

Production

In December 2023, the details of Hum TV's Ramadan specials were revealed which feature Ameer Gilani and Dananeer Mobeen as leads, and written by Syed Mohammad Ahmed. Principal photography for the series took place in Baku, Azerbaijan and Karachi, Pakistan.[citation needed]

On April, 12 2024 the series ended with the airing of the 31st and final episode.[4]

Broadcast and controversy

The fact that the drama mocked various Shah Rukh Khan movies did not sit well with netizens, who demanded an immediate ban on the drama. Some were disappointed that Pakistani dramas were now making fun of another nation's drama for attention, while others were miffed that the said dramas were promoting Indian movies.[5]

Reception

The series received a positive review in Dawn.[6] Youlin Magazine was far more mixed and stated, "Nevertheless, the show suffers from a dearth of comedy and relatability. The allusions to famous Bollywood movies is also a bit over dramatic, and has been criticised by netizens. On the whole, it makes for a good light-hearted watch after Iftar, if you have nothing better to do."[7]
