Pakistani feminists are usually concerned about depiction of women in Pakistani drama TV serials, they receive many of those with skepticism & reservation. In recent years, Pakistani dramas have increasingly begun to tackle social issues that are once considered taboos. Many Pakistani dramas are based on Urdu novels and in the subsequent years after 1969, many authors became television writers such as authors Umera Ahmad and Farhat Ishtiaq both of whom have written content for digests as well as television serials. The serials are watched in India and are popular in other South Asian countries, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. They have helped to attract viewers nationwide to television. According to Farooq Sulehria 1970s & 1980 are considered to be golden old days of Pakistani serials. Pakistani dramas, like serials elsewhere, reflect the country's culture. One of Pakistan's oldest television dramas is the Urdu serial Khuda Ki Basti, which aired in 1969. Although most of the serials are produced in Urdu, an increasing number of them are produced in other Pakistani languages such as Sindhi, Pashto, Punjabi and Balochi. Pakistani dramas, or Pakistani serials, are televised serials produced in Pakistan.
