When the cult classic Pakistani drama ‘Dhoop Kinare’ was first telecast on PTV in 1987, Seema Grewal was a Class XII student in Amritsar. Like many aspiring doctors at the time, she was hooked to the show, its influence so strong in her life that till date this writer-doctor keeps in touch with the fan page of the popular serial. Such was the pull of the show whose creator breathed her last recently. Haseena Moin is credited with giving iconic, trailblazing and popular role models to women from both sides of the border during the late 1970s and the early ’80s through her writings.
