Plot
Shehr-e-Ajnabi is an emotional and encouraging drama revolving around Ufaq. Like any other girl of her age, Ufaq too aspires to live her dreams, to pursue higher studies and become a self reliant woman. However, her dreams are shattered when her orthodox parents force her into marriage. Ufaq sees a ray of hope, as her in-laws agrees to allow her to pursue studies, but once she gets married, her mother-in-law shows her true colour. Things do not remain the same for Ufaq when her husband dumps her and marries her friend. Torn between ideals and reality of life, Ufaq decides to start her life afresh on her own. The story beautifully highlights Ufaq's journey from being under the yoke to taking commanding position in her life.
