Saba Qamar makes a bold return to television with Pamaal, a Green TV Entertainment drama that doesn’t shy away from the messiness of love, identity, and societal expectations. She plays Malika, a woman who abandons the safety of her father’s home for a marriage with Raza (Usman Mukhtar), her dream partner who soon reveals cracks in his perfect facade.
As their relationship unfolds, Pamaal delves into the suffocating grip of tradition, betrayal, and personal sacrifice. Malika’s free spirit slowly erodes under pressures to conform, while whispers of judgment and power dynamics simmer beneath Raza’s loyalty.
The premiere has already divided audiences, with fans praising the exceptional chemistry between Qamar and Mukhtar and critics questioning if the storyline leans too heavily into trauma tropes. Still, many agree that Pamaal is a mirror to countless real-life stories — of women who lose themselves in the pursuit of love.
