Bilal Qureshi

The story of Battalion 609 revolves around a cricket match between the Indian Army and the Pakistan army gone wrong and narrates the tale of the brave soldiers of Battalion 609 putting up a fight with the mighty Taliban.

The story is about Hiba a girl with a silent temperament and Sarah who on the other hand is jolly, careless and non-serious. Hiba’s parents pass away after which she stays with her Uncle Qasim, his wife Nasira and their daughter Sarah. Rashida who lives in the same vicinity sends a proposal of a very good family for Hiba, after which Nasira wishes that the proposal should be for Sarah. Getting inspired by the family’s way of living, Saeeda, who is Rashida’s sister, proposes to Nasira that she wants to get both her sons Sharim and Saad married to Hiba and Sarah to which they have a mutual consent. The wedding takes place with simplicity as Sharim and Saad’s grandmother is not well, and 2 days after the wedding she passes away. The story proceeds with Hiba trying to win her mother-in-law’s heart and being very careful with her behavior whereas Sarah continues being irresponsible and carefree. Saeeda’s other 2 children, Fardeen and Nida’s characters also reveal as the story proceeds…

She’s the apple of her brothers’ eyes. Her father’s undeniable favourite. When you’re loved this much… the world just feels like it should work your way.

A powerful Pakistani series that is so thought-provoking about how powerful the hypocrisy is in our society. Ujala will not only be treated badly by her newlywed husband and in-law family but has to witness also his second marriage and risks to lose her own baby.
