Ahad and Sajal Aly are back yet again with another exciting project ‘Yeh Dil Mera‘
Based on a love story after gathering massive love and attention for their performances in their previous projects Aangan and Yaqeen Ka Safar.
The drama title just released its first teaser which has sparked a controversy amongst viewers who think the content is problematic as it shows normalizing and romanticizing of workplace harassment.
Here’s what they had to say:
pakistani tv drama’s actually romanticise and encourage abuse and harassment instead of spreading awareness etc. i know i am not the first one to say this but fucking hell, what was this trailer? @Iamsajalali @ahadrazamir guys do better.

Imagined this happening at any of the job interviews I've had since I was 16 and can confidently say #YehDilMera would firmly not swoon. https://t.co/sMy3e6kvnr

We all knew the TV writing in this country had declined but not to this point. I’m disappointed Sajal and Ahad – who are so talented – would take on such vapid roles and romanticize sexual harassment in the workplace. https://t.co/EOKNOE65oC
