Pakistani dramas are winning Nepali hearts

Their popularity can be linked to realistic storytelling, cultural similarities, strong female characters, and the poetic beauty of the Urdu language.

When Bisika Bidari from Hetauda was scrolling TikTok during lockdown, she came across a short video of a Pakistani drama, ‘Kabhi Mein Kabhi Tum’. It instantly piqued her interest, and she watched the entire series on YouTube.
