Geo Entertainment’s Khaie wins over audiences with its enthralling narrative!
Khaie starring Faysal Quraishi and Durefishan Saleem in the lead, is two episodes down and already has the audience hooked with its interesting story build-up based on the traditions and lifestyle of northern areas.
Khaie is written by Saqlain Abbas and directed by Syed Wajahat Hussain.
The drama also features an ensemble cast including Hadiqa Kiani, Noor Ul Hassan, Khalid Butt, Laila Wasti, Osama Tahir, Uzma Hassan, Saba Faysal, Hina Bayat, Javed Jamal, and more.
The first episode kicked off showing a Pashtun family of five returning to Pakistan after 25 years, apparently from Bahrain. The parents, Darwesh Khan (played by Noor ul Hassan) and Husn Bano (portrayed by Saba Faisal), are accompanied by their children, including Durefishan (Zamda), and her two brothers.
The 7th Sky Entertainment’s production is titled after Khaie, a Pashto word.
The intrigue around the drama title adds an extra layer of anticipation for the production.
Khaie is based on the ancient tradition of eliminating the male members of an enemy’s family to discontinue their lineage.
After the two episodes, a tale of passion, betrayal, and redemption is gradually unfolding and the early reactions to the drama have arrived on social media.
Durefishan’s character in Khaie has become the talk of the town, showcasing a subtly powerful presence on screen.
Second episode of #Khaie was super intense
Well done director #SyedWajahatHussain
On a side note Ive noticed every Durre Fishan character runs towards danger 😎
Good job by the team
For building up the narrative & hooking the audience
Uff the young boy training to be a killer…— Sadaf Haider صدف حیدر (@tomtomatoe) January 5, 2024
Durefishan's character seems to be a strong powerful one! Many people judged about her character just after watching the first teaser!
Most probably she'll be taking revenge of all the murders!
Seems interesting 🔥#Khaiepic.twitter.com/DYpNKoEAZL— DANISH's KINGDOM👑🌟 (@DTsEmpire01) January 3, 2024
Amma and I recently fell in love with #Durefishan after seeing her free spirited acting in #IshqMurshid and now #Khaie, showcasing a subtly powerful aura — she’s a breath of fresh air; evident talent is present without the need of using odd tactics as crutches to remain relevant

After acting, it’s the cinematography of the serial which is gaining praise from the audiences.
Director Syed Wajahat Hussain has undoubtedly done a remarkable job.
Right from the beginning, the audience’s focus is on the serene locations of the northern areas of Pakistan, which appear to be fully utilized.
The visuals and cinematography 💯💯💯….let's see how 7th sky does the justice of portraying a woman taking revenge. #Khaie https://t.co/mtcCmDdkfU

Faisal Qureshi is seen as yet another bad man’s portrayal. This time he features in a Pathan persona, exuding an authentic gangster vibe.
Many audiences are of the view that the drama should be aired with trigger warnings as well for showcasing violence.
that's what you call " content " , story lines / tribes & tales with different cultural insights & perspective !
only one thing that violence is quite problematic to watch but again ( trigger warnings must be issued as moral obligation )

Beautiful visuals, a fresh pairing of actors, and the ugly and hateful ambiance in contrast to such a heavenly place are the highlights of the new drama #Khaie. #FaisalQureshi and his father give 'animal' a new meaning. It's time our TV introduced a rating system.
