After successfully painting magic on screen in the comedy-thriller Chupan Chupai; Ahsan Khan and Neelam Munir are once again coming together in lead roles for drama serial Qayamat.

Produced under the banner of 7th Sky Entertainment by Asad Qureshi and Abdullah Qadwani, the serial will be an Ali Faizan direction and written by Sarwat Nazir.

"My character is not any run-of-the-mill character," revealed Khan in a conversation with Images.

“I'm slightly picky and choosy about what I do, and this falls under the experimentation category. It’s not a simple love story. My role has shades of slightly negative, weird - different aspects."

He also mentioned how the script, which is a social family drama, "a roller coaster ride of emotions" since there is just so much happening.

Some of the intriguing themes include "issues that women have to face when they have to take a stand against the wrong being done against them. Or how children internalise traits of bad parenting and apply them on their own lives."

"Not to forget, Neelum is one of my favourite actresses," the Udaari star added, mentioning the duo are also shooting for a film Chakkar, production of which will resume in October.

The drama will also feature Amar Khan, Haroon, Shabbir Jan and Saba Faysal in prominent roles. However, no release date has been announced yet.
