In their new web series "Barzakh," the popular duo will be portraying siblings

Set to premiere on July 19 on Zindagi's YouTube channel and ZEE5, "Barzakh" is written and directed by Asim Abbasi, the talent behind acclaimed projects like "Churails" and the Oscar-nominated film "Cake."
The series’ teasers, posters, and trailers have already garnered significant attention online. During an interview promoting the series, Khan and Saeed revealed their new roles, leaving fans with mixed feelings.
In a candid chat with Amna Isani, the actress noted that portraying Khan as a sibling might stir controversy, suggesting that fans had expected the pair to be cast in romantic roles.
Fawad Khan addressed the fan reactions, urging them to appreciate the series for its artistic value rather than focusing solely on their previous on-screen partnership. He assured fans that their desire for a romantic reunion between their characters Kashf and Zaroon might be fulfilled in future projects.

The announcement has sparked a range of responses on social media, with fans expressing disappointment over the shift from a romantic to a sibling dynamic.
One user lamented, “They’ve dashed our hopes; Sanam and Fawad are siblings in 'Barzakh.'” Another commented, “We were hoping for a reunion of Kashf and Zaroon, but now they are shown as siblings.”
Despite the initial shock, "Barzakh" promises to offer a fresh and intriguing storyline, keeping audiences engaged with its unique narrative.
