'Bail') is a 2013 Pakistani television drama serial directed by Mehreen Jabbar and written by Farhat Ishtiaq.
The serial stars Noman Ijaz, Samina Peerzada, Maria Wasti, Adnan Jilani, Rashid Farooqui, Yashal Nadeem, Nausheen Shah, and Danish Taimoor.
The drama focuses on child marriage, an endemic issue affecting low-income families in many parts of Pakistan.
Inayat proposes a macabre solution: his own preteen daughter, Kulsoom, as a second wife for Waseem, claiming that a younger woman can bear children faster.
After joining an illegal gambling operation with an old friend, Waseem is injured in a police raid, leaving him handicapped.
Kulsoom’s daughter expresses her desire to become a doctor, and Waseem supports her decision, bringing joy to Shamim.
The story concludes on a hopeful note as Shamim gains "rehaai" (freedom) from the oppressive traditions of society.
Kashf’s Managing Director, Roshaneh Zafar, called the serial a tribute to the courageous women entrepreneurs of Pakistan who strive to build better lives against all odds.
