As Mitti De Baway takes a darker turn, the puppeteer behind all the chaos finally gets complete control over Iqbal’s (Baala – Wahaj Ali) life. With his brother and his newlywed bride shot dead, the rage of the broken brother reaches Nazeer Shah (Junaid Khan) and his cousins as well. Five dead and many grieving has flamed a boiling pot, leaving Bilquis (Mahira Khan) homeless and Iqbal in hiding for murder. However, the man pulling all the reins is Phajja (Sohail Ahmad); he has not only orchestrated the events that led to multiple deaths but also actively sparked a gangster inside Iqbal. Even as he conflicts between rage and guilt, Phajja makes sure his anger isn’t contained, but rather shaped into a much greater evil.
Driven by an abusive past, Phajja sits right at the center of this downfall as he satisfies his sadistic pleasures. Already a notorious gangster with a business built on extortion, he now has the newest addition to his lot; a man broken by tragic events, Baala, set to bring only destruction. Phajja had figured out from the very beginning how he could benefit from the meek Iqbal and turn him into the gangster Baala. From creating a situation to fuel the fight between the Channans and Shahs, to now taking over a life that was built over years of hard work, his manipulation has been calculated at every step.
While Phajja’s behavior stems from his traumatic childhood, his genuine pleasure from other people’s distress is intriguing. He promises to keep Baala’s family safe, yet he has been the one behind their destruction in the first place. From providing a home to creating a space for a new gangster, Phajja’s apparent care constantly conflicts with his dark, ulterior motives. As Bilquis’s wrath chases Baala, the question remains: will Phajja actually benefit from this chaos, or is he simply satisfying his ego by holding control over it all?
