The theme of the web series "Kaafir" is so powerful that it will transcend all barriers, says its lead actress Dia Mirza, adding that it has been an "incredibly insightful personal journey working on this show".

Speaking to PTI, Mirza said the fact that the Kashmir-set story is inspired by true events, there was a deep sense of curiosity to understand what this entire situation entailed for women and how they got their freedom. "Kaafir" is based on the life and struggle of a Pakistani woman and her daughter who crossed over to India and are held prisoner.
