Who plays who in Hurmat
Dananeer Mobeen's Hurmat wants an education, and the story is built on the collision between that want and her father's authority: Ali Tahir's Akram controls her movements and blocks her path to university, while Javed Sheikh's uncle quietly helps her study, exposing her to a life beyond the house's walls. That widening world is where she meets Tabish — Shahveer Jafry, the YouTube creator making his HUM TV serial lead debut — an assistant commissioner whom Hurmat gets engaged to.
The engagement is the show's central debate. After Tabish opens up about his childhood trauma and his parents' divorce, Hurmat loses interest in the marriage just as he falls deeply in love — and the episodes since have lived inside that imbalance. Gulf News summarised the serial's promise at launch as "a story of dreams, boundaries, and the courage to question them", and the current chapters are exactly that argument playing out scene by scene.
Writer, director and the team behind the serial
Hurmat is written by Kashif Anwar — whose earlier serials include Sabaat, Neem and Nauroz — directed by Nadeem Siddiqui and produced by Momina Duraid for MD Productions, HUM TV's in-house production house. The OST is sung by Zeb Bangash and Sami Khan, the answer to the steady "hurmat ost singer" search. The serial premiered on 5 October 2026 in the Monday-Tuesday 8:00 PM PKT slot, with the English-subtitled uploads going up on HUM TV's official YouTube channel the same night — Episode 11, aired Monday 9 November, crossed two million views on the official upload within hours.
How many episodes does Hurmat have?
Episode 12 airs tonight, Tuesday 10 November, with HUM's own teaser out — and Episode 11 and 12 were promoted together, which has fuelled the "is Episode 12 the finale?" question. The honest answer: HUM TV has announced no finale, no "last episode" promo exists on the channel's pages, and the 12-episode figure circulating on reference sites is not an official announcement. If the serial continues past Episode 12, the next night would be Monday 16 November — our Hurmat episodes guide and the show page carry each date as it locks.
Cast questions, answered
Who plays Hurmat?
Dananeer Mobeen — the actor-social media creator best known on screen for Mera Lyari before taking this title role, a parallel Gulf News drew when the serial launched.
Who plays Tabish, and what does he do?
Shahveer Jafry. His character Tabish is an assistant commissioner — a police-services officer — which is why "hurmat cast tabish" and "hurmat cast second lead" searches both land on the same actor.
Is there a character named Faraz in Hurmat?
No character named Faraz has been confirmed in the episodes aired so far or in the published credits — "hurmat cast faraz" is a search-line the autocomplete engines keep offering without a confirmed answer behind it. If the drama introduces one, this page will carry the name with the actor who plays him.
Where can I see the cast with photos?
HUM TV's official YouTube channel and hum.tv carry the channel's own promotional stills for every episode and promo; we link the channel's pages rather than re-hosting their images. The Hurmat cast and timing guide collects the practical details, and the weekly round-up tracks the show's slot week by week.
Is Hurmat based on a novel?
No — the serial is presented as an original screenplay by Kashif Anwar. Anything claiming a specific novel as its source is guessing.
