“I was waiting to watch them on screen.”
In an unexpected turn, Wahaj Ali is reportedly no longer starring alongside Mahira Khan as part of the highly anticipated drama Mitti De Baway.
The series is written by Faiza Iftikhar and set to be directed by Haissam Hussain.
The drama is poised to mark Mahira Khan’s return to television.
Fans had eagerly awaited the project, which was to be aired on Green TV and produced by Nina Kashif.
However, multiple sources have now confirmed that the lead cast has undergone major changes due to unforeseen circumstances.
Wahaj has reportedly exited the project, leaving fans disappointed and speculating about what led to the decision.
Moreover, there are reports that there is a chance that Mahira might also not be a part of the drama.
The exact reasons remain unclear, but discussions online suggest that production challenges or creative disagreements may have played a role.
This has disappointed Pakistani drama fans.
One social media user said: “We wanted to see them together.”
Another wrote: “I was waiting to watch them on screen.”
While Mitti De Baway faces uncertainty, viewers can still expect to see Mahira and Wahaj share the screen soon.
The two are starring in a telefilm set to release on Eid-ul-Adha, airing on Hum TV on June 7, 2025.
The project is being kept under wraps, with no official title or additional cast details revealed.
Despite the shift, fans are still excited about the upcoming special.
According to online chatter, Wahaj Ali’s exit may have been decided well in advance, with some Reddit users claiming he was recast months ago.
These speculations also suggest Mahira would not have accepted the telefilm alongside Wahaj unless the drama had a recast.
Interestingly, rumours about the casting don’t end there.
Several fans believe Fawad Khan might step into the male lead role for Mitti De Baway.
One user said: “I believe Wahaj may be recast… maybe the chemistry in the telefilm wasn’t working out.
“Fawad was approached earlier but declined. Now with his work in India on hold, and his respect for Haissam, he might join the project.”
Other possibilities being floated include Ahad Raza Mir, especially if the producers decide to go with a fresh pairing.
Some users have also mentioned budget constraints, suggesting that high production costs and cross-border limitations might have affected casting decisions.
If Mahira Khan remains attached to the drama, as some fans speculate, the final casting may depend on her creative input.
For now, viewers will have to wait for official announcements regarding the fate of Mitti De Baway.
Until then, all eyes are on the Eid telefilm, with the much-anticipated on-screen pairing of Mahira Khan and Wahaj Ali.
