It is that time of the year when the entire world says goodbye to toxicity. As the holy month of Ramadan approaches viewers also get a break from the lethal TV dramas. These Ramadan special shows over the years have become a must-watch. Like every year, channels and production houses are in full form to compete and grab the maximum viewership and TRPs. Year 2024 is no different, three for Geo, two for HUM and one each for BOL and Green. One aspect that is hugely missing this year is the presence of big stars. Anyhow, read on as we at Pakistani Cinema bring you the lineup of special Ramadan 2024 special shows to look forward to.

‘Zakham’ proved to be a game changer for Aagha Ali, as of now the actor is considered dependable to carry off an entire project as the solo lead.
