Plot

Alif Allah Aur Insaan is a story of trust, loyalty and relationships. The story revolves around five different people from five totally different backgrounds and their faith and conviction. It highlights the concept of how the Creator rewards the people who believe in hard work and patience.

It depicts the story of a young landlord, Shahzeb, who once saw Nazneen Malik at her sister's wedding and fell in love with her. Nazneen happens to be the spoiled child of Hashmat Malik. At the same wedding, Nazneen insults Shamu and his ensemble, who were invited by her parents to perform a dance. Nazi insults them for being transgenders, after which Shammu curses her so that one day she will lose all her faith. Meanwhile, the story depicts the life of Rani, a street beggar, who is forced to bring the money she earns to her father. She believes in human equality and once saved Shamu from mocking goons, which left him in love with her. One day, Rani comes across a beautiful place where a florist tells her about the beauty and faith of the town's well-known woman,'Nigar Begum'. This fascinates Rani, who constantly prays to be like her one day. It is revealed that Nigar Begum is a head courtesan who shelters homeless girls in her brothel.

It's revealed, in flashbacks, that Shahzeb was once forced by his friends to see Nigar Begum's Mujra dance. Despite going there because of his friends' insistence, Shahzeb wasn't the least bit interested, which made Nigar fall in love with him. He rejects her love and insults her, after which a heartbroken Nigar curses him so that one day he will be rejected in the same way.

Rani's father decides to get her married to Rasheed who would in-turn pay him extra Mahr Payment. In order to stop begging and to avoid her father's command to marry, Rani decides to fulfil her only dream of becoming like Nigar Begum. She visits Nigar and asks her to keep her as her maid, thinking that she will live a life better than that of a beggar. Rani rejects Shamu's love, insults him for being a transgender and approaches Nigar Begum, keeping in mind that once she has arrived - she can never go back. Facing her rejection, Shamu is left heartbroken and decides to earn a decent living, thus joining a local barbershop. Nigar Begum keeps Rani as her maid and renames her, Reena Begum.

Shahzeb takes his marriage proposal for Nazneen to her father and gets engaged, while she isn't interested in marrying him. Later, she opens up about her wish to study so she's sent to Lahore with Shahzeb's consent and her parents consider Basit her guardian. With time, Shahzeb begins questioning himself and God about why Nazneen doesn't love him back. As his questions cause him to face religious confusion, he regularly visits an Islamic Molvi whose knowledge and words help him.

Shamu becomes a popular hairstylist whereas Rani starts to realise that her life hasn't changed the way she imagined.

Nazneen falls in love with Basit, who holds his parents' respect as his highest priority.

Development

Alif Allah Aur Insaan is developed by Hum TV's senior producer Momina Duraid of MD Productions, the channel hired director Ahson Talish to direct the series.[5][6] The story of the serial is based on Qaisra Hayat's novel of the same name. The screenplay was also written by Hayat while script composing was done by Muhammad Wasi-ul-Din who is best known for his compositions for channel series Diyar-e-Dil and Mann Mayal. Hayat has previously worked with Momina, when she wrote Saya-e-Dewar Bhi Nahi.[7]

The song composition was done by Naveed Nashad while background scores were given by MAD Music, lyrics for the OST were penned by the director himself who chose Shafqat Amanat Ali for singing, thus marking Ali's comeback for Hum TV after performing the OST of the network's hit series Alvida in 2015. The channel released the first teaser promo on 13 April 2017 and premiered the series on 25 April 2017. It was given the prime slot on 8:00pm airing a weekly episode every Tuesdays.[6] Under the production, Amir Shehzad and Saleem Sumrah were the production managers, while Akbar Balouch, Muhammad Bhatti and Amir Rehman khan were under the set department. Along with the director, Mehreen Suhail and Syed Sajad Habib were the executive directors.

Casting

Mikaal Zulfiqar plays the male lead

Producer Momina Duraid, and director Ahson Talish mutually chose the cast which included Mikaal Zulfiqar,[8][9][10] Ushna Shah,[11][12][13][6] Sana Nawaz[14][10][15] Kubra Khan,[10][5][6] Shehzad Sheikh and Imran Ashraf to portray the leading roles.[5][6][16][10][17][12] Mikaal Zulfiqar and Kubra Khan marked their second appearance together after their success in Duraid's Sang-e-Mar Mar.[18] From 2015, actor Mikaal Zulfiqar was given several shows for the channel including Diyar-e-Dil, Maan, Sangat and Sang-e-Mar Mar all of which were a commercial success for the channel itself, after the channel's success in 2016's Sang-e-Mar Mar, Zulfiqar once again was finalised to portray the role of Shahzeb.[9][10][19] Alongside Zulfiqar, Kubra Khan was finalised to portray the role of Nazneen [8][9][20] after her success in her debut for Sange Mar Mar. The actress completed her series Muqabil and Andaz-e-Sitam for Ary Digital and Urdu1 and joined Alif Allah aur Insaan in 2017. Actor Shehzad Sheikh was finalised to portray the role of Basit [14] right after the finale of his 2016 series Choti Si Zindagi.

Actress Ushna Shah was approached by the production head Mahesh Waswani from MD productions and Raza Moosavee, the head of the casting department for Hum TV.[6][10][21] The actress was offered to portray the role of Rani which later earned her critical acclaim and success,[11][12][13] Shah was interviewed by HIP and answered why she accepted the offer of Raani's role, she said, "When I read the script I knew I had to do it. Rani was just the one I had been looking for. The depth, the change, the crudeness, the rawness, and the reality is something the artist inside me had been craving since I joined the industry. Rani reminded me of why I became an actor" [21] Speaking about her role Shah said, "Rani evolves a lot as she is an amalgamation of things: The walk was inspired by a lady who used to work in our house when I was a child; ironically her name was also Rani. The dialect was watching the working class growing up in Lahore. A lot of the mannerisms were things I observed in young girls begging on the street. So yes there was some character research involved at my end but everything else was thanks to the genius, Ahson Talish. He crafted the crassness of Rani beautifully, he created her."[21] Alongside Shah, Lollywood film actress Sana Nawaz was approached by Mahesh Waswani for the role of Nigar Begum.[14][10][15] The series was her second Hum TV project where she portrayed a challenging role, speaking about her character Nawaz said, "I play a character called Nigar, I really liked this role because it was very challenging and quite different from what I have done up till now ... It was an honour for me to work with Ahsan, as an actor it was a dream come true to work along a man who is so talented and understands his actors so well and gets the best performance out of them".[15]

Apart from primary casting, the production team also finalised several veteran actors for secondary casts. Director Saife Hassan, who regularly directs several series for Hum TV, was finalised to portray the role of Raani's father. The actor had brief appearances in the introduction since he was busy directing Sammi for Hum TV, similarly Actor Noor-ul-Hassan and Actress Kinza Malik were shooting for Sammi but in November 2016 their roles were finished and they were finalised for Alif Allah aur Insaan. Similarly, veteran actor Usman Peerzada was selected to portray the role of Malik Ashar Khan alongside Ainy Zaidi who portrayed Nazneen's mother. Actress Azra Mansoor, previously selected in Diyar-e-Dil and Bin Roye, was finalised to portray the role of Zaitoon, Shahzeb's mother. Actor Qavi Khan was finalised to portray the role of a noble priest who had brief appearances within the play. Farhan Ally Agha was chosen to play Nawazish Ali.

In June 2017, actor Omer Shehzad and actress Nimra Khan joined the leading cast of the series.[22][23] Speaking about his role, Shehzad said, "Also, my part is very strong, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed ... I’m also coming with a whole new look, I have a moustache, I’m wearing a bracelet in my hand and am always in shalwar kameez, so it’s kind of a wadera look and that’s something I’ve never done before ... I’m also very confident about it because my director told me that this particular character was in line with my presence."[23]

Filming, shooting, and location

Principal photography commenced on 18 January 2017 and was concluded in June 2017. Later on the same month, the production house ordered more episodes with a new cast. On July, six more cast members joined the shoot and it concluded on 17 November 2017. The eleven-month shooting period marked Alif Allah Aur Insaan as the longest running serial of the 20:00 (GMT) slot on Hum TV. During its filming it had more than average episodes under production and to run it within the 2017 season the production heads decided to release it in April 2017 despite its ongoing shoot. The shooting was finished on 17 November 2017.

Before the shoot, the title of Alif Allah was used, but during the shoot it was changed to Alif Allah aur Insaan. Shooting was extensively done in remote areas of Hyderabad, Sindh and in Punjab areas.[10] All the location units were overseen by Waqar Baloch who was leading the set department which includes Akbar Balouch, Muhammad Jathi Khan and Muhammad Rehman Khan.

Set-location of Nigar Begum's Haveli was a traditional Haveli which was used by the production house for the filming of their 2016 series Mann Mayal for the same channel.[24] Shooting locations were overseen by art director Mirza Zeeshan Baig with cinematographer Zeb Rao and editor Mehmood Ali who returned as director of photography and chief editing respectively. All three of them previously worked with Duraid's Diyar-e-Dil, Mann Mayal, Sanam and Dil Banjaara that earned their skills critical praise and acclaim. Graphics were done by Hasnain Diswali and Syed Furqaan Ali Qazi of Hum TV. Several set locations were real including Nazneen's Haveli and Basit's house. Since the series was also filmed in a Punjab village its few filming locations were real. Actors Mikaal Zulfiqar, Shehzad Sheikh, Kubra Khan, Qavi Khan, Noor-ul-Hassan, Azra Mansoor, Kinza Malik, Usman Peerzada and Ainy Zaidi have mostly filmed in the Punjab region.
