Mazhar Kaleem's Imran Series
is a series of Urdu spy novels written by Pakistani author
Mazhar
Kaleem within the classic Imran Series mythos created by Ibn-e-Safi.His
first novel was
Makazounka in which Kaleem first
introduced the character of Captain Shakeel, who was transferred from
Military Intelligence. It was published in the late 1960s. 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. The Secret Service is
administered by the Secretary of
Foreign Affairs, Sir Sultan, who offers
Imran the position as the Secret Service's head after getting personal
help from him. In early
books Imran appears as a solo detective, however, later he is portrayed as the chief of Secret Service as
X-2.
After Ibn-e-Safi,s demise many people attempted to write Imran Series but no one could continuously produced this kind of Urdu books except Mazhar Kaleem. Kaleem produced more Imran series novels than Ibn-e-Safi and has a wide readership and huge number of fans. He has been writing these novels for the life time of Ibn-e-Safi and continuously produces Imran Series novels till date.
