Imran Series is a series of Urdu spy novels originally created by famous Pakistani author Ibn-e-Safi. More than two hundred writers illegally wrote on Imran Series including Mazhar Kaleem.
According to available record, Kaleem's first "Imran Series" novel was Maka Zonga, which was published by the name of "N Safi" in which he first introduced the character of Captain Shakeel, who was transferred from Military Intelligence. It was published in the late 1960s or early 1970s. Later on, around 1973 to 1975, "Jamal Publisher Bohar Gate, Multan" published his first novel by his pen name "Mazhar Kaleem". Each book in the series was a complete novel but some stories spanned over two or more books (for instance, Kaghzi Qayamat, Imran Ka Aghwa and others).
The character of Ali Imran is a playful yet deceiving personality. He is a bright young Oxford graduate with M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in chemistry. His comical and apparently incompetent persona hides his identity as head of a secret service. The Imran Series explains the workings of a country's Secret Service that operates from the capital of an imaginary country called Pakasia. Some other writers of Imran Series used the name of "Pakasia" in that era (1974-1975) such as, Shaheen Choudhary's novel that was published around 1974 or 1975. One of his novel name was "Pakasia ki Tabahi". Later on Mazhar Kaleem also used the word "Pakasia" in his novels. The Secret Service is administered by the Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Sir Sultan, who offers Imran the designation of the Secret Service's head soon after getting personal help from him.
These novels were published by "Yousuf Brothers", from Multan.
Mazhar Kaleem acquired fame through writing about Ibn-e-Safi's famous character in the Imran Series in the late 1960s. After Ibn-e-Safi, many writers tried to continue "Imran series" but few have lasted beyond a few novels except Kaleem. He has now written over five hundred novels. He has brought some new characters to the "Imran Series" and wrote various topics like mystic crimes (Misaal-e-Dunya) and economic crimes (Kaghazee Qiyamat). Imran Series has a range of diverse, colorful, and sentient characters. Few Character created by Mazhar Kaleem are mentioned below:-
