Overdone script or a much-needed distraction? Fans review first episode of 'Kaala Doriya'

The first episode of the much-awaited rom-com drama serial, Kaala Doriya, was aired on Friday and needless to say, the fan reviews have taken over social media. The drama, starring Sana Javed, Osman Khalid Butt, ZQ and Nadia Afgan, revolves around two families who are in a tussle over a property dispute. 

While some fans were reminded of famous sitcoms Suno Chanda, Ishq Jalebi and Chup Chup Ke, others shared they didn't mind yet another light-hearted show - an obvious contrast to the troubling abusive narratives in recent dramas.
