I wish I could see how Sri Lanka turned out, but whats the likely scenario? If Govt has no money, no police, no military and no water, electricity. Basically anarchy ?
what normally happens in cases of default?

No collapse will happen in Pakistan as long as the Gulf states are around..

But if Collapse was to happen then ''ghazal hindi live-action'' may become a thing

It might actually be a good thing to default and have the debt restructured. It will come with tough conditions (and I don't know what they are), but there will be some forced opportunities for fiscal discipline.

Default if happens, will at most result in rationing of consumables and longer power cuts. Intelligent people would have already hoarded an year worth staple food items to see this through. Since it's Pakistan, we can safely rule out any mass uprising against elite.

There will be rioting and looting for sure.

A default doesn't mean a national collapse. Argentina has defaulted multiple times, they're still getting by just fine.

The problem will come in the form of imports, international assets, and foreign financial aid. These would disappear over night. Local industries would be affected, and many shut down until alternate sources can be found.

A nation like Pakistan won't collapse, but it will definitely become poorer.

From a military view point: I don't know if the army leadership knows just how bad it will get for them, because all those shiny toys that they've been buying, they're gonna end up being glorified door stoppers. They won't have the money or supplies to maintain them thus aggression from Afghanistan and India will increase as a result of all this because they will 100% smell weakness from Pakistan.
