The excitement doesn't stop there, as the second episode is set to release on July 20 at 8 pm. Following the premiere, viewers took to social media to share their reactions and reviews.

#Barzakh is a cinematic masterpiece. Sure, the concept is abstract & complex, & you need to think hard before formulating a straight thought, but the world is built meticulously, & it consumes you to explore more. I loved Sanam's narration & Fawad M. Khan's performance. pic.twitter.com/VfzaEvACiY

#Barzakh This is what pakistan is capable of. This is what our directors and actors can pull, if provided with enough budgets and platforms. It’s about time that producers start thinking out of the box and utilise the creative talent in the country properly.

The positive feedback also highlighted the show's cinematography and aesthetics, praising its ability to captivate the audience and deliver a compelling narrative.

#barzakh is visually stunning.
Ptv should watch & learn colour grading .
Characters & legends are interesting ,though has some forced 18+ elements which took away from the authenticity (the international festival tropes)
Khushhal,sanam ,Salman shahid & M Fawad were great. pic.twitter.com/JtDY5kJEHB
