Web Desk July 16, 2012

While there has been very little work done in the Pakistani film industry over the last few years, television serials have grown tremendously in terms of production and storyline.

A Suhrwardy brothers’ production for a foreign television channel, the TV series titled “Mangoes” is based on the lives of different South Asian youth, living in Toronto, striving to become global citizens.

The video depicts how South Asians respond to the culture shock they undergo when they move out of their country.

The soundtrack of the series is a reprise of the famous Alamgir number “Keh Dena”.

Video rating: Two thumbs up for the quality filming and the concept.
