Belapur Ki Dayan (Urdu: بیلاپور کی ڈائن; lit:Witch of Belapur) is a Pakistani supernatural realistic horror drama directed by Saife Hassan under Momina Duraid Productions and written by Enam Hasan.[1][2] It stars debutant Amar Khan, Sarah Khan, Adnan Siddiqui, Osama Tahir and Rayyan Ibrahim in lead roles.[3]

Plot

The story revolves around Aziz (Shakeel) who has recently moved to his ancestral home after winning a 32-year-long court battle with his step brother. In the house, his whole family is disturbed with the supernatural presence, which turns out to be the spirit of his step sister Nilofar (Amar Khan). Nilofar wants to take revenge from him for a 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 captures her body to affect her life negatively. In the meanwhile, 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.[4] What will the family experience now?

Production

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 in present.”[7]
