The Pakistani drama industry is filled with love stories, family feuds, and commercial hits. But every now and then, a bold, socially relevant drama comes forward that challenges viewers to think differently. Hum TV’s latest mini-series “Mann Jogi” is one such drama.
Airing on Hum TV every Saturday at 8 PM, Mann Jogi is not just another drama — it’s a social commentary, a reality check, and a reflection of hidden societal issues that are rarely discussed openly in mainstream media.

The drama’s bold narrative isn’t just fictional — it’s a mirror to realities faced by many women in conservative societies. The emotional tension between Ibrahim and Aliya reflects both love and betrayal, hope and despair.
