- Fans Boycott Actors Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed for Barzakh Series.
- Khan is known for his diverse roles in Pakistani cinema and Bollywood.
- Despite the backlash, Barzakh continues to stream, sparking debate and discussion.
In an unexpected twist, fans have initiated a boycott against popular actors Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed following the release of their latest series, Barzakh. The show, which tackles sensitive subjects such as homosexuality, has sparked considerable backlash across social media platforms.
Fawad Khan, celebrated for his diverse roles in both Pakistani cinema and Bollywood, initially gained fame as a singer before transitioning to acting with Shoaib Mansoor’s highly acclaimed film Khuda Kay Liye.
Khan’s career soared with notable performances in various dramas and films, including Bilal Lashari’s The Legend of Maula Jatt. Before banning Pakistani artists in Bollywood, Khan made a significant impact in Indian cinema with roles in Khoobsurat and Kapoor & Sons. Recently, he has focused on projects produced by Indian studios, moving away from traditional Pakistani narratives.
Khan currently stars in Asim Abbasi’s web series Barzakh, where he plays the character Shahryar. The series explores mental health issues but has faced harsh criticism for its portrayal of homosexuality, resulting in widespread online disapproval.
The controversy has led to accusations that Barzakh promotes an LGBT agenda. Critics argue that the series distorts the Islamic concept of Barzakh into a fantasy narrative filled with contentious themes, including vulgarity and LGBTQ issues. Some critics have gone further, accusing the show of promoting Illuminati and Jewish Kabbalah magic.
The backlash has been severe, with many former fans expressing their disappointment and dismay. Numerous people have announced their intention to boycott Fawad Khan, Sanam Saeed, and actor Khushal Khattak, criticizing them for their involvement in the series and claiming they have deviated from traditional values.
Despite the controversy, Barzakh continues to stream, with its complex themes sparking widespread debate and discussion. The actors and creators have yet to respond publicly to the backlash.
