We have been told that Punjabi, Sindhi, Pashto, and Urdu are the major languages in Pakistan. I have never heard of Seraiki.

Seraiki is spoken by about 14 (not 40) million people, and is part of a dialect continuum with Punjabi and Sindhi -- it can probably be regarded as a dialect of Punjabi, although one could argue about where the distinction between "dialect" and "language" actually lies.
Is it the language of love? Well, that's a very subjective assessment. To many Europeans, French is the language of love, but some Russians I spoke to told me they preferred the sound of, of all languages, German, because to them French was too "nasal". Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder, or, in this case, the ear of the listener.
