Pakistani Dramas 2026: The Full List with Schedules — On Air, Ended & Upcoming

· 6 min read

Updated: 24 October 2026. This is the live 2026 record — every serial below is verified against the channel's own pages and uploads, and the on-air section is re-checked weekly as slots change.

2026 has been one of the busiest Pakistani drama years in recent memory: ARY Digital re-tooled its whole prime-time band twice over, HUM TV cycled its flagship slots three times, Green Entertainment mounted its biggest original slate yet, and Geo kept two daily strips plus a weekend anchor running simultaneously. If you searched for a Pakistani dramas list and schedule — on air right now, what ended, and what is coming — here is the complete picture in one place, sorted by channel with every timing verified.

Nashtar deserves a note: it began as a Friday-Saturday weekly on 21 August and now runs daily at 8:00 PM PKT — Geo's own episode pages confirm four consecutive nights (Episodes 19-22) across 16-19 October. And Dar-e-Nijaat is the year's ratings story: the Umera Ahmed serial with Sheheryar Munawar and Durefishan Saleem has sat at the top of the weekly TRP charts through October, averaging two episodes every Friday and Saturday.

  • Miraas — HUM TV. Teaser out with Saba Hameed, Laiba Khan, Saboor Aly, Sana Javed and Ali Ansari; date to be confirmed.

Rumoured projects — including a second season of Tere Bin — stay off this list until a channel actually announces them; a casting rumour is not a schedule. Our October on-air guide tracks the month-to-month changes in more depth.

Where everything streams

One platform per channel, all official: ARY Digital serials stream on ARY Plus (app and aryplus.tv) after broadcast; Geo serials land on the Har Pal Geo YouTube channel with subtitles; Green Entertainment uploads everything free to its YouTube channel; and HUM TV combines same-night YouTube uploads with the Hum Turbo app. None of the current serials sit behind a subscription. For overseas clock conversions — the UK, Europe, the USA and India — the timings converter guide and the weekly schedule keep every slot current.

Which Pakistani dramas are on air in October 2026?

Twenty serials across four channels — the full day-and-time table is above. The daily strips (Bano, Nashtar, Uswa, Izzat, Khushi, Dastoor) run every evening; the rest occupy fixed weekly slots.

How many episodes does a Pakistani drama usually run?

Between 20 and 40 for weekly serials, though 2026's hits have run longer — Toota Huwa Dil closed at 83 episodes, Main Tera at 65, and Meri Zindagi Hai Tu at 34. Daily strips often pass 40. Channels rarely announce totals in advance, so we publish counts only as episodes actually air.

Which Pakistani drama is number one right now?

Dar-e-Nijaat — the ARY Digital serial has led the weekly TRP charts through October 2026, with Rutba and Bas Tera Saath Ho occupying the next slots earlier in the month.

Where can I watch ended Pakistani dramas?

Every serial in the completed list stays on its channel's platform: ARY Plus for ARY titles, the official YouTube channels for Geo and Green, and HUM TV's YouTube plus Hum Turbo for HUM serials.
