"Resurrection Ertuğrul," often described as the Turkish "Game of Thrones," takes place in the era before the establishment of the Ottoman Empire. Set in 13th century Anatolia, the series illustrates the struggle of Ertuğrul Ghazi, father of the founder of the Ottoman Empire Osman I. It became a major hit in Pakistan and soon in Kashmir, where the historical drama was binge-watched by fans.

The Turkish TV series "Kuruluş Osman" ("The Ottoman"), which tells the story of the establishment of the Ottoman Empire, has also been broadcast on a private Pakistani TV channel, with Urdu dubbing.
