Pakistani drama industry is under fire these days. After receiving a lot of criticism from viewers and acclaimed writers like Anwar Maqsood for its low-level content, the industry is now on the radar of PEMRA which has ordered TV channels to remove all inappropriate and vulgar scenes from their dramas.
TV dramas will also not be able to on-air bed scenes, vulgar dressing and intimate scenes. The notification was released today and has asked all the channels to strictly follow the mentioned guidelines.
The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) has labelled such scenes as a violation of Islamic teachings and against our culture. The notification said, “considerable stratum of the society. Hugs/caress scenes/extramarital relations, vulgar/bold dressing, bed scenes, and intimacy of married couples being glamorized in utter disregard to Islamic teachings and culture of Pakistani society,”
