In her statement she stated, “We will not accept this agenda. We won’t allow them to spread this among our children. The drama glamorises forbidden concepts like Zina, LGBTQ and child grooming shamelessly.”

She told Pakistani parents to protect their children. Directed by Asim Abbasi, Barzakh features Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed in lead characters and explores mystical themes such as afterlife and homosexuality.

The series plot shows a man of 76 years of age who unites with his family to marry the spirit of his first love. Asim Abbasi has defended the show after listening to numerous criticism and has stated that if they find the themes offensive, they should refrain from watching the show.
