Sitamgar (Urdu: ستمگر) is a Pakistani romantic drama television series directed by Fahim Burney, broadcasting on Hum TV every Thursday between October 2012 to March 2013.
[1] The series is written by Sarwat Nazir, and stars Sajal Aly opposite Faisal Rehman,[2] with an ensemble supporting cast of Angeline Malik, Nadia Hussain, Azfar Rehman, Sunita Marshall and Ali Afzal.
[4] The story starts with Zoya (Sajal Aly) wandering around a mall in Dubai, where she finds a cute doll she wants to buy.
Zohaib offers her a ride home, where she asks him to play loud music and does very childish things.
Suddenly she faints, and Zohaib takes her to the hospital, where he finds out she's anorexic and hasn't eaten for days.
Zahra is always annoyed by his presence as she thinks he wants to make her feel guilty for rejecting him.
On seeing the gift tag with Zoya's name, Zahra questions Zohaib about her, and he explains to her everything that happened in Dubai.
When he goes to work a few days later, he learns that Zoya is his boss Shiraz's (Ali Afzal) daughter.
On seeing how uninterested Zoya is in his business, Shiraz asks Zohaib to train her and make her as hard-working as him.
When it is Zoya's birthday, and her dad leaves for a business trip, Zohaib arranges a party for her to cheer her up, only forgetting that it's his wedding anniversary the same day.
As they dance playfully, Zeba (Nadia Hussain), Shiraz's partner, walks in and questions them.
On Shiraz's arrival, he asks Zohaib to take Zoya to an art gallery so she can buy a painting she likes.
Realising that everyone is mistaking his love for greed, Zohaib leaves his job at Shiraz's company and returns to Pakistan to sort things out with Zahra.
Adil, scared to marry a sick person, breaks his engagement with Zoya and returns to Australia.
On hearing this, Zeba objects to her pregnancy that she is too sick to be pregnant, but Shiraz doesn't pay much attention to her.
Sitamgar's OST is composed and sung by Sohail Haider and the lyrics are written by Sabir Zafar.
