‘Gunah’ Takes Off to a Strong Start with Sarmad Khoosat and Saba Qamar’s Compelling Performance
Sarmad Khoosat and Saba Qamar’s ‘Gunah’ Captivates Audiences with its Debut Episode
The crime thriller series ‘Gunah,’ directed by Adnan Sarwar, has taken the social media world by storm after its first episode aired on a private entertainment channel. Fans couldn’t contain their excitement as they flooded Twitter with praises for its “exceptional” storyline and the “stellar cast” of the six-episode limited series.
‘Gunah’ revolves around Malik Hayat Khan (Sarmad Khoosat), a powerful landlord who finds himself in a helpless situation when his wife, Gul Noor (Juggan Kazim), elopes with Ahmed (Ali Raza), the tuition teacher of their sons. To find solace, Malik’s in-laws (Roohi Khan and Zafar Abbas) propose that he marries their other daughter, Gul Meher (Saba Qamar). Though hesitant, Malik agrees for the sake of his children left behind.
However, complications arise when a determined police officer, SHO Sabiha (Rabia Butt), enters the picture. She begins investigating the case and uncovers evidence that suggests Gul Noor’s disappearance is more than meets the eye. While some viewers hope the drama picks up the pace, others have hailed Khoosat and Butt as the stars of the first episode. With its “gripping storyline and intense character dynamics,” it seems like ‘Gunah’ has become the favorite drama of TV enthusiasts this summer.
One Twitter user expressed their excitement, saying, “Wow, what a first episode of Gunah! Intrigue, mystery, thriller. Love the female police officer. Great cast. Can’t wait to watch the rest of it.”
Another user described the show as a “slow-burn drama with a nostalgic touch,” reminiscent of iconic productions from PTV.

I feel other channels have something different to offer occasionally. This TV presents this suspense thriller now, featuring the eye-candy trio Sarmad Khoosat, Juggan Kazim, and Saba Qamar, with Rabia Butt as the cherry on top.”
The exceptional cast of ‘Gunah’ has also garnered attention. Fans have applauded Khoosat, Qamar, Kazim, and Butt for their stellar performances. “It always feels so refreshing to watch Saba Qamar. Her acting is phenomenal. Good to see Rabia Butt in uniform; she looks stunning,” wrote one user.
Butt, in particular, received significant acclaim for her portrayal of the fierce and modern police officer. “Gunah boasts what may be the sexiest SHO in Rabia Butt, and she means business. Loving the slight touch of camp mixed with the grim reality of this good thriller. The entertainment channel ups the ante with this high-quality miniseries,” read a tweet.
Comparisons were drawn between ‘Gunah’ and Farhan Saeed starrer ‘Jhok Sarkar.’ “Same genre but two entirely different flavors. ‘Gunah’—a mix of melodrama, rough-edged reality, and grey-shaded characters—makes ‘Jhok Sarkar’ look like a pedestrian walk in front of it,” wrote a user, adding that the “intriguing characterizations, intricate details, and a touch of masala” make ‘Gunah’ stand out from other dramas in the crime-thriller genre.
Social media platforms have been buzzing with predictions about the series. Fans have speculated on the evolving relationship between Gul Meher and the inspector, while some even believe that Khoosat
