Where to watch Dhoop Ki Deewar, the Pakistani web series soon to be streaming in India?

The web-series Dhoop Ki Deewar, which highlights the love story of Vishal and Sara will have an OTT release on June 25, 2021. The Pakistani web series has been in trouble for its controversial narrative, even before its release on ZEE5 in India. While social media users in Pakistan have been labelling it as “unpatriotic”, the Zindagi original is scheduled to have a weekly episodic premiere every Friday at 12 Noon in India.

The final episodes of the series will air on Independence Day weekend on ZEE5.

The trailer of Dhoop Ki Deewar was released on June 15. The show reportedly tells the story of Vishal (played by Ahad Raza Mir) from India and Sara (played by Sajal Aly) from Pakistan, whose paths cross after losing their fathers, in wars between India and Pakistan. They find comfort in each other’s companionship.

No matter who wins the war, both nations face the loss.
When everything falls apart, what will they choose: Hate or Heart?

Dhoop Ki Deewar will stream exclusively on ZEE5 in India. Earlier talking about the series, director Haseeb Hasan had said the show is a reflection of positivity “beyond borders, religion and societal biases”. “The sole essence of the show lies in the simplicity of its narrative", he stated. In the show, a subject such as a cross border love story has been dealt differently and has an underlying message of peace, harmony and joy of life, the director said in a statement.

Novelist Umera Ahmed said that the show was approved by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media and public relations wing of the Pakistani army. Ahmed confirmed that the script is her own creation and it is the basic right of a writer to initiate debate on any important matter in their work, she wrote in a statement shared on Facebook.
