On the pivotal date of 10 August 2023, Geo Entertainment, the broadcasting platform behind the much-anticipated series "Hadsa," strategically launched its teaser. This teaser served as a tantalizing glimpse into the forthcoming Crime thriller, building anticipation and sparking intrigue among viewers. As the clock ticked down to the series premiere, this early preview offered a sneak peek into the atmospheres, characters, and gripping narrative that would soon captivate audiences when "Hadsa" officially unfolded on screens. Hadiqa Kiani took to Instagram, sharing an exclusive behind-the-scenes (BTS) glimpse of the series. The post offered fans and followers an insider's view into the making of "Hadsa," providing a sneak peek into the camaraderie among the cast and crew, the set dynamics, and perhaps even a preview of the meticulous effort invested in bringing the Crime thriller to life.[14][15]
On 30 August 2023, the trajectory of the series took a dramatic turn when the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) imposed a ban. The ban was attributed to the portrayal of the story of a real-life rape survivor, prompting widespread discussions and concerns. In response to the controversy, Hadiqa Kiani clarified in an interview that the series was not based on the Motorway Rape Case in 2020, seeking to dispel any misconceptions surrounding the narrative's inspiration.[16][17]
The unfolding drama took another twist when Wajahat Rauf, the director of the series, delivered news that brought relief to the production. The Islamabad High Court intervened, subsequently lifting the ban. This decision came with a stipulation, crediting both the viewers and the cast and crew for their roles in the series. The announcement marked a significant moment in the series' journey, overcoming regulatory challenges and paving the way for its continuation.[18][19]
