My work for The Caravan, a New Delhi-based literary and political magazine, includes a long personal essay on Pakistani serials and their appeal in India, and reviews of art and pop culture exhibitions.
In Caravan’s November 2014 issue, I explored the crossover appeal of dramas from Pakistan with the advent of Zee Zindagi. In this excerpt from that story, I review Zindagi Gulzar Hai, the television series that first brought Fawad Khan to the attention of his Indian fan following.
