Isn't 'Sar-e-Rah' the need of the hour?
The drama Sar-e-Rah overall discusses the idea of embracing change and flying high by losing all the weight for the women of Pakistan.
Sar-e-Rah is an exceptionally well-written drama, which discusses the stories that are scattered all around us but unfortunately, we tend to shy away from shedding some light on them.
Sar-e-Rah will share the stories of women who are the victim of child marriages, girls who are being suffocated solely because of their gender, daughters who are unable to help their fathers as their honor will be at “stake” and transgenders/intersex persons who are being humiliated for their identity.
Belonging to a lower middle-class background, Rania, played by Saba Qamar always wanted to be a doctor, but her circumstances didn’t allow her to be so.
