Khan further expressed her gratitude for the opportunity. "Thank you Sana and Samina for making this happen again and also coming up with such a beautiful story," she commented. Written by Rida Bilal, and directed by Qasim Ali Mureed, Jaan-e-Jahan is bankrolled by Samina Humayun Saeed and Sana Shahnawaz.

Previously, Abbasi took to social media and shared that he will be returning to the small screen with Jaan-e-Jahan. "Happy to introduce you to the captivating world of our upcoming project Jaan-e-Jahan written by Rida Bilal, directed by Qasim Ali Mureed," an Instagram post read. "Produced by Samina Humayun Saeed and Sana Shahnawaz coming soon on a TV screen near you!"

The teaser sees an introductory message from the makers with superstar Humayun Saeed's captivating narration. In its first look, Jaan-e-Jahan gives off a very Alif vibe - Abbasi's last television project in 2019. The airing date and further details about the 38-year-old star's recently announced project are kept under wraps. 

In 2020, Khan was inquired by a fan on Twitter if she would like to work with her Pyarey Afzal co-star again. "Would you like to pair up with Hamza Ali Abbasi again for another serial or movie even?" a user asked. To this, Khan had responded, "I wish we could make Pyarey Afzal 2."

While the show might not be a sequel to the 2013 hit, fans are certainly looking forward to seeing the onscreen couple together once again. The show, starring Khan and Abbasi in lead roles, was penned by the controversial writer, Khalilur Rehman Qamar and directed by Nadeem Baig.
