And so, Oye Yeah, reached out to Muneeb to find out what Mangharat is all about. And here’s what he told us.
“There’s an illusion in our society that proposals that come from foreign countries for girls are always better than those in our own country. Our society has this mindset that the lifestyle in foreign countries is blessed with luxury but that is usually not the case and this is the myth that Mangharat will be busting with its story,” said Muneeb.
Adding a bit more about the story line of the drama, Muneeb said, “Mangharat also tackles the issue of physical abuse in a relationship, marital abuse to be more precise. My character, Ahmed, is very violent. He’s rigid, he’s rude and he’s an ayaash in the truest sense.”

“Ramsha and I are cousins in the play who get married. The girl has a fantasy about life in a foreign country. She gets married and comes to Malaysia, but life here is entirely different from what she perceived. Our’s once a rich family is now totally poor. Ahmed has nothing but a temper of his own, and he doesn’t hesitate to hurt his wife,” added Muneeb further.
How the girl manages her life after marriage, how the myth of a foreign life vs life in one’s own country is busted and what happens next is what you’ll have to see the drama for. “Mangharat is not your everyday story. This drama, will definitely bring something new for the audience with each passing episode. My character, I’ve never done such a violent and loud character before. Ahmed is totally different and therefore I am looking forward to it,” shared the Koi Chand Rakh star.
