Abro (serial)

Abro is a Pakistani television drama serial that originally aired on Hum TV on 20 December 2015.

It was directed by Ilyas Kashmiri, script by Qaisra Hayat, and screenplay by Umera Ahmad.

Abro is in love with her friend Ali, son of Farzana and Zafar, brother of Abid, Samra, and Tayyaba.

They finally give birth to a child whose name, Afsheen, is chosen by Ali's mother.

The show skips ahead 4 months, and Abid and Fouzia have a child whose name is chosen by Farzana as Ahmed Ali.

The show again takes a leap of 4 years when Afsheen, Ahmed Ali, and Aima became school-age pupils.

Unfortunately, Afsheen can't continue her dream to be a doctor due to financial issues with her family, and she does a Bachelor of Arts instead.

However, Afsheen when thinking of her parents' trust in her, refuses to run with Ahmed and asks him to marry Samra's daughter and gives up on his love.

Ali and Fouzia feel very ashamed of not bringing up their children better and praise Afsheen for her respectable behaviour and dignity.

Moreover, Aima turns out having a friendship with a boy named Fahad, who happens to be a thief and is wanted by the police.

Already regretting their leniency in bringing up children, they decide to stop Aima from going to college.
