Watch Dhoop Ki Deewar online: The cross-border love story Dhoop Ki Deewar released in India on Friday, June 25, releasing two episodes from the series. The final episode of this web series will release the Independence Day weekend. Dhoop Ki Deewar created a lot of noise on Pakistan Twitter, as many users were unhappy with its supposed premise about Indo-Pak conflict.
The show has been written and directed by Umera Ahmed who is known for the popular show Zindagi Gulzar Hai. Ahmed said she started working on the story for the show back in 2019.
Where To Watch Dhoop Ki Deewar
Dhoop Ki Deewar is available to stream in India exclusively on ZEE5 and the first two episodes of the show have already been released on the platform. The show will be releasing new episodes every Friday until the weekend of Independence Day this year.
The show is set in the backdrop of the Indi-Pak conflict and shows how peace is always better than war as the two main characters from different sides of the border try to find a common ground for connection after losing their fathers in the war. The shared grief of the duo automatically serves as a foundation of their friendship. The show features Sajal Aly and Ahad Raza Mir in the main roles.
Dhoop Ki Deewar Controversy
After the release of the show's trailer on June 15, Dhoop Ki Deewar was embroiled in a dispute over its cross border theme pivoting around Kashmir. The show was slammed on Pakistan social media for being unpatriotic and challenging the two-nation theory.
However, the writer of the show Ahmed said that the show was approved by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), which is the media and public relations wing of the Pakistani army. You can read more about the controversy surrounding Dhoop Ki Deewar here.
