Seerat (Template:Lang-ur; previously titled Maria Bint-e-Abdullah, Template:Lang-ur) is a 2018 Pakistani television series, produced by Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi under their banner 7th Sky Entertainment. The series aired on Geo TV from 19 November 2018 to 29 April 2019. Kinza Hashmi, Ali Ansari and Hamza Firdous play the lead roles.[1][2][3]
The series was formerly a biweekly, and was converted into a daily soap to burn off the remaining episodes before Ramadan, due to scheduling conflicts on most Pakistani networks, especially GEO because they telecast a transmission nearly all day, allowing very few dramas to be aired in the month of Ramadan.
Plot
The protagonist is Maria, whose father is Muslim and mother is Christian. Maria faces discrimination in her aunt and uncle's house due to her mother. The show shows her inclination towards Islam despite the fact that she has spent most of the time with her mother. The story also reflects the lives of her boss Amar, his brother Danish and Danish's would-be wife.
