10 Most Overrated Pakistani Dramas That Everybody Talks About | Six Screen
Pakistani dramas continue to hold massive audiences all over the world. With every compelling love story and powerful social message, these dramas have defined entertainment for a number of years.
However, not every drama that receives this much hype deserves it. While some dramas created a buzz on social media and had high TRPs, many viewers feel disappointed too.
At Six Screen Media, we celebrate incredible stories, but we also shed light on the dramas that gained unnecessary popularity due to its cast and nothing more. Here are 10 Most Overrated Pakistani Dramas That Got More Attention Than They Rightly Deserved.
1. Ishq Murshid
Ishq Murshid was popular all over Pakistan, yet many viewers felt that, despite the solid start, the drama dragged on for too long. While fans loved the chemistry of Bilal Abbas and Dur-e-Fishan Saleem, the ongoing plot twists and unwanted scenes left some viewers feeling disappointed. The hype for this drama was overshadowed by the awful delivery.
2. Dayan
Dayan attempted to introduce a horror and suspense element into its story. The atmosphere was unique, but the story itself felt bloated and unrealistic. The excessive use of special effects took away the thrill of the show. Despite the hype, it became an eyesore.
3. Hum Tum
Hum Tum, the Ramzan special, received enormous views thanks to its light comedy and festive atmosphere. Critics pointed out that the humor was forced and the characters were misfit for the roles. The drama was still watchable, but it certainly didn’t deserve the level of craze it received.

4. Chupke Chupke
Chupke Chupke was another Ramzan classic that received massive admiration online. It was definitely a fun watch due to its humor and star cast, but there wasn’t any substance in the story. It was entertaining but the story was a miss.
5. Jaan Nisar
Marketed as a revolutionary love story, Jaan Nisar fell short of fans’ emotional expectations. The pacing was slow and dragged. The teasers promised a strong story but left the audience in disappointment. Fans are now tired of seeing Danish Taimoor in repetitive roles.
6. Mere Humsafar
Mere Humsafar became a social media sensation after social media exploded with clips of the lead pair. However, the critics pointed out poor writing and excessive melodrama. The story was meaningless.
7. Khuda Aur Mohabbat (Season 3)
The third season broke records, but the script provided little new from the previous seasons. The repetitive dialogues broke the audience’s interest. The popularity did not match the actual content.

8. Parizaad
Sure, Parizaad is iconic, but many fans feel it was slow paced and dragged. Parizaad as a character was unique and powerful, but unfortunately stretched episodes and slow pacing tested viewer’s patience. It was a brilliant portrayal, but perhaps not as perfect as people claim.
9. Tere Bin
The hype around Tere Bin broke the internet, yet it suffered from repetitive misunderstandings and unnecessary subplots. While the pairing of Wahaj Ali and Yumna Zaidi was electric, the story did not maintain balance. Popularity overshadowed its weak narrative.
10. Suno Chanda (Season 2)
There was a great freshness and charm to the first season of Suno Chanda. The sequel’s repeated jokes, and further elongated stories stole the charm of the show. The series still garnered tremendous views, but again, it felt like an example of all buzz and no substance.
Final Thoughts
Pakistani dramas maintain their charm all over the world but some dramas like Dayan, Jaan Nisar, Chupke Chupke and others are over hyped. Stories should be precise, strong and should be able to deliver their respective message with clarity.
At Six Screen Entertainment, we not only showcase the hits but also express our honest opinions to the audiences. By merely highlighting the overrated dramas, we urge the producers to emphasize substance over hype.
