Mehreen Jabbar’s upcoming drama Gulbahar asks an uncomfortable question: is love between more than two people possible?
The Sanam Saeed-Emmad Irfani starrer is one of this year’s most anticipated television shows. After the two actors won the hearts of fans with their portrayal of a dysfunctional couple in last year’s Kafeel, expectations from Gulbahar are running high.
With the second trailer out Wednesday, here’s what it leaves us wondering: will Saeed and Irfani play a happy couple this time? Which one of them will play the antagonist? Is there a third person in the equation?
In an exclusive interview with Images, Jabbar revealed details about Gulbahar’s plot and characters that haven’t been shared publicly before — without giving away too much information, of course.
“It is a thorough examination of love, jealousy and possessiveness. What does it mean to love someone and what is unconditional love? If you love someone, should you set them free? If you love someone, should you be selfless or possessive? Those were the different questions and themes that interested me when I took the serial,” she said.
