Wali and Maya played by Samar Jafri and Aina Asif and their love story has been a key track of Parwarish.

Parwarish director Syed Meesam Naqvi spoke about this and gave his point of view on why he wanted to show this track on screens. He said it is a taboo in our society to discuss relationships.

He went on to share that your child generally hides it from you and kids are having affairs and don’t tell parents.

In spite of threats and negative consequences of those threats like suicides and abandonment, he wanted to show how parents can positively tackle this. He used Maya and Wali’s track to show this:
