Pakistani Drama Timings: The Week at a Glance, Channel by Channel
· 6 min read
If you have ever typed "what time does my drama start tonight" into Google at 7:55, this page is for you. Pakistani prime time moves around depending on the channel, the day and the serial, and every network seems to arrange it slightly differently. Below is the current week laid out plainly, channel by channel, using the same timings we keep on each show page here on EpisodeNo.
Two quick notes before the list. All times are PKT (Pakistan Standard Time), and channels do occasionally shuffle slots for special programming — when that happens, we update the show pages first and this page right after.
HUM TV: the busy one
HUM currently runs the fullest slate, and it spreads across almost every night of the week. The flagship Friday–Saturday 8:00 PM slot belongs to Aap Ki Izzat, the Umera Ahmed serial with Ahsan Khan and Urwa Hocane. Monday and Tuesday at 8:00 PM is Sirf Shabana, Wednesday and Thursday at 8:00 PM is Muamma (with Zanjeerain sharing that slot), and Friday nights also carry Ek Jhooti Kahani. On the later side, Musafat fills Monday to Friday at 9:00 PM, weekends belong to Leader (Sat–Sun, 8:00 PM) and Aye Dil Aazma Nahi (Sat–Sun, 9:00 PM), and Hadd runs daily at 7:00 PM. Ek Chadar Maili Si airs in the 8:00 PM band as well — its exact days shift, so check its page.
ARY Digital: the ARY Plus week
Since 17 September, watching ARY serials means the ARY Plus app or aryplus.tv — the timings, though, are unchanged. The marquee Friday–Saturday 8:00 PM slot is Dar-e-Nijaat. Monday and Tuesday at 8:00 PM is Bas Tera Saath Ho, Wednesday and Thursday at 8:00 PM is Mirza Ki Heer, and Toota Huwa Dil airs daily at 7:00 PM — the earliest standing slot of the week. Main Tera holds the daily 9:00 PM late slot, and Jaanam remains a Friday title.
Geo TV: weekends up front
Geo's current headline pairing is Humrahi with Danish Taimoor and Hiba Bukhari, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 PM. Tapish takes the Monday–Tuesday band. Geo also runs serials in the 7:00 PM early-evening stretch on weekdays, which is worth remembering if 9:00 PM is too late on a work night.
Green TV: three-day and five-day stories
Laaj claims Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 8:00 PM — the only three-night weekend serial on air right now — while Intekhab runs Monday to Friday at 9:00 PM, making it the week's steadiest 9 o'clock habit.
A simple way to never miss an episode
Most Pakistani dramas follow a simple pattern once you see it: flagship serials sit in the Friday–Saturday 8:00 PM band, midweek serials take Monday–Thursday at 8:00 PM, and the 9:00 PM hour is for daily or five-day stories. If you want a shortcut, every show page on this site keeps its own days and time up to date — and we are working on an optional episode-alert feature, so you will be able to get a nudge when a new episode of the show you follow goes live.
One last thing
Timings on this page describe the channels' current published schedules at the time of writing. If a slot changes — networks move things around for cricket, holidays and specials — the show pages will reflect it first, and this page gets refreshed right behind them.
