Belapur Ki Dayan (ur|{{Nastaliq|بیلاپور کی ڈائن;) is a 2018 Pakistani supernatural horror drama series directed by Saife Hassan and written by Inam Hasan.[1] [2] It features Sarah Khan, Adnan Siddiqui andOsama Tahir in leads, while Amar Khan played the main antagonist. The series first premiered on 15 February 2018 on Hum TV.[3]
The story revolves around Aziz (Shakeel), who has recently moved to his ancestral home after winning a 32-year-long court battle with his stepbrother. In the house, his whole family is disturbed by the supernatural presence, which turns out to be the spirit of his stepsister Nilofar (Amar Khan). Nilofar wants to take revenge from him for wrongdoing in the past. Thus she tortures and disturbs the life of his family for living in her home.[4] She corrupts the souls of Natasha, aka Tasha (Sarah Khan), the daughter of Aziz, and possesses her body to affect her life negatively. In the meantime, the lives of Aziz's son Rameez (Osama Tahir), his wife Aliya (Rayyan Ibrahim), son Wajdan (Nitesh Narayan),and daughter Mannat (Shifa) are deeply disturbed by the supernatural spirits, especially Nelofar. Aziz decides to tame Nilofar and seeks the help of her ex-lover Shakir (Adnan Siddiqui) for Tasha's treatment.
Amar, in an interview, said, "I’m playing characters from two different time periods, one of a fragile innocent girl of the 80’s reading Parveen Shakir’s shayari and the other, a current time period sarcastic and ruthless Dayan who is there to attain revenge."[... ]"It’s been given very realistic treatment. My director’s very much hanging me with cables in the air, and he’s making me do all these acrobats, so it’s no longer a bedroom drama where I shed a tear or two or even play a glamorous nagin; nothing of such sort."[5] [6]
While Adnan shared with The News about his character, "I play the dayan’s love interest in the project,"[... ] "After her death, I am called in the same house by the owner whose daughter is being haunted, and I am there to save her. I will be seen in 10 episodes, and the drama takes you into flashbacks and then into the present."[7]
