flag Pakistan's first dating show, Lazawaal Ishq, hosted by Ayesha Omar, has stirred controversy for its Love Island-inspired format featuring eight contestants living together in a villa for 100 episodes. flag The show, based on the Turkish series Aşk Adası, will stream exclusively on YouTube and not on any licensed TV channel, meaning it falls outside the jurisdiction of Pakistan's media regulator PEMRA. flag Despite backlash over its perceived incompatibility with local cultural and religious values, the series is set to debut for a global Urdu-speaking audience.
