Ullu Baraaye Farokht Nahi (Urdu: الو براۓ فروخت نہیں, lit.'The owl is not for sale') is a Pakistani drama television serial based on the afsana of the same name by Amna Mufti, which was first published in 2009 in a monthly Urdu journal Shuaa.[1] Directed by Kashif Nisar, the serial stars an ensemble cast of Nauman Ijaz, Sohail Ahmed, Saba Qamar, Uzma Hassan, Irsa Ghazal, Yumna Zaidi, and Noman Masood in prominent roles. Dealing with the subject of feudalism and Watta satta, the series serves as a dark indictment on a society where men can abuse their power with impunity.[2][3]

The series received praise due to the performances of the actors and storyline[4] and was nominated in all categories at the 13th Lux Style Awards.[5]
