The new series “Barzakh,” directed by Asim Abbasi and featuring Fawad Khan, Sanam Saeed, Salman Shahid, and others, is stirring up conversation with its LGBTQ theme and unfolding narrative. However, it’s the show’s incorporation of queer themes that has generated considerable controversy.
Maria B, a prominent designer and activist known for her firm stance on social issues, has weighed in on the debate. She has long been vocal about her concerns regarding the promotion of LGBTQ themes in media and its impact on society, especially children. In her recent comments on “Barzakh,” Maria B has criticized the series for allegedly promoting LGBTQ agendas, normalizing pre-marital sex, and including themes that she believes could be interpreted as sexual grooming of minors.
She referenced a past statement by Fawad Khan about the gradual acceptance of gay love through media, arguing that such acceptance is unlikely. Maria B has vowed to continue opposing these narratives to protect young audiences from what she views as inappropriate content.
