Dobara is a new drama that started airing on October 20, 2021.

The premise is promising. An older woman had two suitors knocking at the door (literally a line from the teaser), and she chooses the hot one, admittedly. It is so refreshing. We have seen Mawra Hocane with Adnan Siddiqui in Ahista Ahista, Sanam Jung with Adnan Siddiqui in Mere Humdum Mere Dost. Now, it’s time to reverse the scene.
