Pakistan’s first-ever Netflix Original series, “Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo,” is reportedly set for release by the end of 2026, marking a major milestone for the country’s entertainment industry.
Based on the bestselling novel by renowned author Farhat Ishtiaq, the story was first published in serialized form in 2009 before being released as a novel in 2013. The adaptation has generated significant excitement among fans, who have been eagerly awaiting its release for several years.
The series is a joint production between Netflix and Hum TV, making it the first Pakistani original project produced specifically for the global streaming platform. It features an impressive ensemble cast, including Mahira Khan, Fawad Khan, Bilal Ashraf, Hamza Ali Abbasi, Hania Aamir, Iqra Aziz, Sanam Saeed, Ahad Raza Mir, Nadia Khan, and several other leading Pakistani actors. The project has been directed and produced by Momina Duraid.

Originally scheduled for release in 2025, the series was delayed without an official explanation, leading to speculation that the project had been postponed or even canceled. However, recent reports suggest that post-production is now in its final stages, with Momina Duraid personally supervising the final edit. Promotional activities featuring the cast are also expected to begin in the coming months.
Despite the encouraging updates, many fans remain cautiously optimistic after years of delays. Social media users have expressed excitement but say they will believe the release date only when Netflix officially announces it and the episodes become available.
If released as planned, “Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo” could become a landmark production, introducing Pakistani storytelling to a much wider international audience through Netflix.
