Maria B Condemns Drama ‘Barzakh’ for Alleged LGBTQ Promotion
Since the drama series “Barzakh” has aired, it has ignited controversy for its alleged agenda to promote same-sex relations in society. Maria B, an A-list designer and prominent activist, has been very vocal against the drama, believing it promotes obscenity and LGBTQ themes.
Maria B has openly criticized the series, stating that it attempts to normalize pre-marital sex and includes themes of sexual grooming in children. She claims the team behind “Barzakh” is pushing an LGBTQ agenda, which she strongly opposes.
Referencing an old statement by Fawad Khan, one of the stars of the series, she said, “As Fawad Khan once said that people will get used to gay love in a media interaction, that will never happen. We will stand against these agendas and stop all of this from spreading amongst our kids.”
“Barzakh” is a new series directed by Asim Abbasi, featuring a star-studded cast including Fawad Khan, Sanam Saeed, and Salman Shahid. The controversy surrounding the series has sparked a wider debate on the portrayal of LGBTQ themes in Pakistani media.
