ON June 08, 2021, Prime Minister Imran Khan urged the Pakistani entertainment industry to take inspiration from the famous Turkish show and come up with a quality local production to provide the youth with a welcoming Ertugrul-like alternative of substandard and glamorized content.
“If Pakistani film and drama industry presents quality local production, it will not only progress but also provide the youth with an alternative of substandard and glamorized content, which will be welcomed like that in the case of Ertugrul,” he said.

The prime minister said Pakistani dramas were very popular in the world until the decade of 1980s.

The prime minister further said it was unfortunate that the new generation was not aware of the golden era of Muslims’ rule in the Sub-continent.
Efforts should be made to the foil the designs of propaganda mongers by producing films and dramas on that golden era, he added.
Chairman of Kashmir Committee Shehryar Khan Afridi apprised the meeting of the important role of Turk Lala in the Khilafat Movement and his importance in Turkey.
The meeting also highlighted the importance of creating awareness among the youth about their heroes in history.
