Imran Series (Mazhar Kaleem)

Last updated

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.

Contents

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.

Characters created by Mazhar Kaleem

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 [1] are mentioned below:-

The Florian's body remained essentially the same through its unusually long life cycle, being afforded only two moderate facelifts. The Isuzu Florian was originally presented as the Ghia Isuzu 117 Sedan at the 1966 Tokyo Motor Show and shared its complete chassis with the closely related Isuzu 117 Coupé.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has been a staple of American popular culture since its christening in 1935. That year also marked the beginning of the popular "G-Man" phenomenon that helped establish the Bureau's image, beginning with the aptly titled James Cagney movie, G Men. Although the detective novel and other police-related entertainment had long enthralled audiences, the FBI itself can take some of the credit for its media prominence. J. Edgar Hoover, the Bureau's "patriarch", took an active interest to ensure that it was not only well represented in the media, but also that the FBI was depicted in a heroic, positive light and that the message, "crime doesn't pay", was blatantly conveyed to audiences. The context, naturally, has changed profoundly since the 1930s "war on crime", and especially so since Hoover's death in 1972.
