Wahaj Ali and Mahira Khan’s drama ‘Mitti De Baway’ holds up mirror to society, raising difficult questions about caste, honour and hypocrisy.
The divide between the ‘Shah’ and ‘Miraasi’ communities drives the betrayals at the heart of the story.
Episode 7 ended with a shootout at a railway crossing, in which Baala’s brother, Aslam, was killed.
Episode 8 follows Baala’s transformation into the hardened Baala Gujrati, a man shaped by loss and drawn into the world of gangster Phajja.
Some viewers have compared the drama to Emily Brontë’s classic novel ‘Wuthering Heights’, citing its themes of class discrimination and unrequited love.
Directed by Syed Wajahat Hussain, the drama features bold writing by Faiza Iftikhar.
