Suno Chanda 2The popular drama serial is returning to the small screen with its sequel, titled Suno Chanda 2. The upcoming play features singer and actor Farhan Saeed and the versatile Iqra Aziz, who will be reprising their roles as Arsal and Jiya, respectively.

The teasers for the sequel of the play have been released and by the looks of it, the story will pick up from where it ended.

BhookThe play, which stars veteran actress Maria Wasti in a lead role, is based on a true story. “Directed by Mohsin Ali, Bhook is a five-episode project made especially for Ramazan,” Maria Wasti told Instep in an exclusive interview.“The play is a true comment that highlights poverty and depicts the harsh reality of our society. On one hand, there are people who are blessed to have food on their tables, most of which is wasted, while on the other, there is a section of our society that is unable to even provide one meal for the family,” she said, adding that this is the reality but we tend to ignore it.According to the actress, who is currently shooting for the play, it’s a challenging and gritty project. “The story is about a woman who has no option but to take the life of her own kids. You will have to wait till the play goes on air this Ramazan to find out why she takes such a grave step.”Besides Maria Wasti, Bhook also stars Kamran Jillani and Hina Bayat, among others.
