Pamaal Episode 1: AI Audience Turns Heads | Six Screens
The new drama Pamaal just dropped its first episode on Green TV. The show has big names behind it: written by Zanjabeel Asim Shah, directed by Khizer Idrees, and starring Saba Qamar and Usman Mukhtar together for the first time. Fans were excited and something in the episode gave them even more to talk about. Discover with six screen media.
The episode opens at an award show. In the scene, Saba Qamar plays a writer named Malika. The show also brings in Sarmad Khoosat and Saif-e-Hassan in guest roles. What surprised many viewers was the audience in that award show scene: it wasn’t a real live crowd. The makers used AI technology to generate the audience visuals.
Public Reaction
The public had mixed opinions. Some thought using AI was a fresh idea. One person commented, “It is great to see dramas using AI technology.” Others found it odd or off-putting. Someone else wrote, “Waddafuq kinda AI was that?” But there were also fans who said, “AI generated audience. But I still like it.” These reactions show people are curious. Sometimes amused by things they don’t expect in TV dramas.
Using AI in dramas is new in Pakistani television. It raises questions. Do viewers like it? Does it look natural or fake? Does AI trick the eyes or add value to the story? Pamaal is asking these questions simply by trying.
On one hand, people appreciate creativity. With TV budgets and scheduling complexities, AI tools may help scenes feel big without needing large crowds in real life. On the other hand, critics feel using AI can break the tempo. When an audience doesn’t look real, it can feel like watching a collage or graphics show instead of real life. Some say it pulls them out of the story.
Final Thought
Despite mixed feedback, Pamaal Episode 1 succeeded in getting attention. That first AI scene worked, it got people talking. In today’s entertainment world, that is often half the battle. It doesn’t matter whether everyone loves it; what matters is that people noticed and reacted. Pamaal already set itself apart with that moment.
If the rest of the episodes keep mixing strong story, good acting, and bold tech choices, Pamaal might become one of the most talked-about dramas this season. For now, viewers will be watching closely, to see how AI keeps showing up, and whether it makes the story stronger or fancy.
