Pakistani superstar actress Mahira Khan is all set to hit again on Indian screens with her upcoming web series Yaar Julahay.

The latest project is a series of dramatic readings that will air on Zee Theatre. As per Bollywood Hungama reported, the Raees starlet will feature in the opening episode of the 12-part Zee Theatre series. She will be reading Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi’s classic story, Guriya.
