Female-centric drama Sinf-e-Aahan highlights the struggle of women in the military and the serious issues they experience, from getting to the Pakistan Military Academy to staying there, but it has its comedic moments. The latest episode featured such a scene where Kubra Khan and Ramsha Khan — who play roommates in the show — are alerted when there's a knock on the door thinking it's an authority figure when it's just Dananeer asking for milk. Kubra posted an even funnier BTS where Dananeer put up a fight when she pushed her out of the room as a prank.

"So that scene you guys loved yesterday. This is what really went on behind the scene. Usually we barely used physical strength while acting in such scenes so in this scene too, you’d expect I acted to push Sidra (Dananeer) out of the room and she ACTED to be thrown out. No. This chic literally FOUGHT me. In one of the takes. This chic. I swear. I literally had to use my entire strength to push her out while she wrestled me," Kubra explained in the caption.

The BTS video featured the two women low-key wrestling as Kubra struggled to push Dananeer out of the room and the take ended in everyone erupting in laughter. Kubra added that it was the director who'd "directed" the prank. "And you know the best of it? Nadeem Baig was the one to make her do it — talk about getting pranked mid scene. Ah! This was one of my favourite days! I miss you guys!"

The Hum Kahan Ke Sachay Thay actor added the hashtags #OnSetPrank, #SetEnvironmentIsEverything and #SidraKiBachiNeJaanNikalDi in her caption.

Dananeer also posted her side of the story on her Instagram Story saying "Oh my God guys! Nadeem Baig asked me to prank Kubra Khan mid-shoot and it couldn't have turned out better."

Sinf e Aahan is a drama featuring a female-led cast, star-studded with seven incredible actors who play women belonging to different backgrounds, challenging themselves to become "Women Of Steel". The series is the story of women in the Pakistan Army and all the trials they face getting there.

The drama has been written by Umera Ahmed and directed by Baig. Humayun Saeed, Samina Humayun Saeed, Shahzad Nasib and Sana Shahnawaz are the producers.

Starring alongside Kubra, Ramsha and Dananeer are actors Sajal Aly, Syra Yousuf, Yumna Zaidi and Yehali Tashiya. Though the drama has stirred up some serious issues pertaining to regional representation, it has also caused lighthearted feuds such as GIKI versus NUST. All in all, it's been a welcome production for the focus on women and their struggles.

"It’s very inspirational, telling the story of five girls from completely different backgrounds that join the army," Yousuf told Images in an interview last year. "I feel it’s time writers and content creators consciously work on the lessons that are to be learnt from the kind of stories that are generally put out, rather than normalise toxic behaviours, relationships and family dynamics.”

I think more athletic and fit female might be inducted as all the showbiz cast are nearly pathetic when come to ISSB and military training.

Keep fooling masses by producing substandard and hollow songs and dramas while filling pockets with taxpayers money to flee abroad.
