Imran Series is a series of novels created by Ibn-e-Safi. Contrary to widespread notion propounded by Safi loyalists that Safi never copy righted the character and therefore Mazhar Kaleem took benefit of it; Characters are generally not copyrighted but it is the readers who chose to discard or accept some one else's work on that character. Famous characters like Batman, Spiderman and Superman have been written by many authors other than the original one. While the creator Ibn-e-Safi could write not more than 120 Imran Series novels, Mazhar Kaleem wrote more than 500 and this alone shows that his work was widely accepted and followed by fans. He brought many new characters to the Imran Series and introduced various new topics like mystic crimes (Misaale Dunya) and economic crimes (Kaghazee Qiyamat). He has written many high rated novels like as Shilmaak,Bagoop,Khamosh Cheekhain,X-2,Ganja Bhikari,Tiger In Action,Juana In Action and many more. He has given variety and new depth to the character of Ali Imran and made the character alive and more popular and well known. One sentence of criticism, He also made Imran's character more unrealistic which is no way close to reality.
