The series is produced by Shazia Wajahat under banner Showcase Productions. It is set to premier on 6 October 2022 on ARY Digital with double episodes every week. The series stars Hadiqa Kiani, Omair Rana, with child actors Aashir Wajahat, Aina Asif, Muhammad Hassaan and Ahmed Usman in leading roles. *Story: The series received positive reviews due to its subject of parenting techniques and children's issues. Abaan (Ahmed Usman) is a troubled young kid, who lives in a very strict family. His interests lie in art and music, whereas his father Javed (Omair Rana) tells him that these are useless subjects and scolds him for pursuing them. Abaan's mother Khadjia (Hadiqa Kiani) is also very strict, but she understands Abaan's feelings and she can't stand up for herself against her husband. Abaan's older brother Azaan (Aashir Wajahat) is the good kid and he always makes his parents proud, whereas his sister Abeer (Aina Asif) is the complete opposite, since she has a phone, unbeknownst to her parents, and is very politically active on social media. Khadija's friend Wajiha (Sunita Marshall) is a divorcee since she had an abusive husband named Sheharyar. Her two kids, Fardan (Zuhab Khan) and Dua (Emaan Khan), both support her and so does her servant, Firoza Bi (Fareeha Jabeen). One day, Abaan fails his tests, and his father and sister both call him losers and a disappointment, and Javed threatens to send Abaan to boarding school, but Azaan convinces him that he will help Abaan study and be better at his studies. Khadija finds out about Abeer's phone, but her friend secretly gifts her another one. Abaan then befriends a rich kid named Bilal, and he gives Abaan drugs to get rid of his tensions. Abaan steals money from Javed's wallet to give to Bilal for the drugs. One day, Azaan becomes "Head Boy" of the university, but Abeer gets in trouble for bullying a girl on social media, and Abaan finds a kid named Umer trash talking Abeer. Abaan and Umer fight, but Abaan accidentally lets Umer fall over the balcony, sending him to the hospital. Since Umer is a rich kid, his father gets Abaan arrested. During the investigation, the school finds out about Abaan and the drugs, and they take this matter to court. But it turns out that Javed's lawyer is actually working for Umer's father and he says he will try to make sure that he won't let Abaan's bail happen. Wajiha meets Arsalan (Furqan Qureshi), who happens to be a lawyer, so Khadija tries to hire him, but Javed intervenes, thinking that Wajiha and Arsalan are having an affair, since he doesn't like Wajiha. *Cast: Hadiqa Kiani as Khadija Ali Siddiqui as Saleem Omair Rana as Javaid Aashir Wajahat as Azaan Ahmed Usman as Abaan Muhammad Hassaan as Abeer's Boyfriend Aina Asif as Abeer Sunita Marshall as Wajiha Emaan Khan as Dua Zuhab Khan as Fardan Fareeha Jabeen as Feroza Bi Jinaan Hussain as Rabia Zhalay Sarhadi as Fareeda, School Principal Furqan Qureshi as Arsalan Sharique Mehmood as Bakht *Production: Producer Shaiza Wajaht revealed in September 2021 that pre-production work on the last script of screenwriter and playwright Asma Nabeel, has been started.
