The short teaser gives a glimpse into the drama’s plot and reveals that Dunk will highlight the issue of harassment at educational institutes. Professor Humayun (Ejaz) is accused of harassment by Amal (Javed) and he denies any wrongdoing. It appears that Haider (Bilal) will help Amal get justice.

Besides Bilal, Naumaan and Sana, the lead cast also includes Yasra Rizvi and Fahad Sheikh.

While most fans praised the teaser and expressed their anticipation, others called it out for being problematic.

#Dunk teaser is straight from the headlines, cast etc looks very promising if the director can keep up the tension .. Fascinated to see which way the story will go Will Humayun be the victim or the villain ? & what will be the social media reaction? https://t.co/nPC5hSSquN

this is like..4th Sana Javed drama that directly or indirectly deals with topic of sexual harassment. this time it looks like she has progressed from being a victim of it to possibly lying about to it to get someone into trouble. Behan ne poora career bana diya hai ek hi topic se

In any case, we all should just listen to this person.

Wese we should wait for the story to unfold instead of making assumptions on the basis of first teaser. #Dunk
