One such drama, airing on Pakistani channel Urdu 1, is set to hit the screen this month. The channel, famous for having broadcasted many Turkish and Indian dramas along with Pakistani dramas, gave us a local hit by the name of Jackson Heights in September 2014. This year, actor/director Yasir Nawaz, who also directed Wrong No. last year, will be carrying the mantel forward for Urdu 1 in his newest endeavour, Tum Kon Piya. The serial has been co-produced by Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi of 7th Sky Entertainment.
Kadwani, at the launch of the promos, said that,
“It has been a long time since we have been planning for an association with Urdu 1 and there couldn’t be a better option than to begin our relationship with the channel through Tum Kon Piya which has a stellar cast, wonderful script and great direction,”
Urdu 1 channel representative and GM programming, Nina Kashif, said,
“We are equally excited about the airing of this drama serial which has already created a stir with its amazing cast and storyline, and we hope that it would be another addition to the success stories of our channel.”
