Mehwish Hayat’s role in Dayan raises eyebrows among viewers

Mehwish Hayat’s return to television has created a buzz among drama lovers. After nearly nine years, she is back with the drama serial Dayan. Fans eagerly awaited her comeback, but her role has sparked mixed reactions.

Dayan is a drama filled with action, suspense, love, and revenge. In this project, Mehwish Hayat plays the character Nihaal, also known as Misha. She is a university student who belongs to a strict and conservative family.

Her father is an uneducated alcoholic who frequently mistreats his family. The story revolves around Misha’s struggles and transformation. While many fans are excited to see her in a drama again, some question her role choice.

One viewer shared their opinion: “Had they made Mehwish Hayat a lecturer at the university, the story would look more believable.”

Another commented, “She is too old to play a student. My God! What happened to the directors?” Similar reactions continue to surface online. A fan said, “She’s a fine actor, but this role is unsuited for her.”

Despite these criticisms, some viewers remain optimistic. They believe that as the drama progresses, Mehwish Hayat’s actual acting skills will shine. In later episodes, her character is expected to take a dark turn and transform into the evil Dayan.

Fans hope this twist will justify her casting. Dayan is directed by Siraj-ul-Haq. Fatima Faizan and Amber Azhar wrote the screenplay.

The drama officially premiered on February 24, 2025. With its intriguing plot and Mehwish Hayat’s powerful presence, the show continues to capture attention.
