In just four episodes of Amanat, the world has turned upside down for Mehar, for Zarar, for Zunaira, for Junaid, and for almost everyone else. The show opens with Zarar and Zunaira preparing for their nuptials when suddenly the former flies to another city for work purposes.
While Zarar, Zunaira, and their families were prepping for the wedding, Mehar was asked to run away with her aunt’s nephew after a secret Nikkah, to escape her forced marriage with her mentally impaired cousin, Qaiser.
Mehar and her husband meet Zarar while he is on a work-related trip. Her husband goes out to get some necessary stuff but is shot dead as the result of a mobile snatching incident. Upon his prolonged absence, Zarar decides to take Mehar to Karachi.
Zarar’s family and Zunaira doubt Mehar’s abrupt presence in Zarar’s life but he deems all doubts merely a misunderstanding. In the third episode, when Zarar comes to know of Mehar’s husband’s demise, he tells her the truth and out of shock, she steps on shattered glasses, injuring herself.
