MOL Episode 01 - drama

"Mol" is essentially about balancing the rights of the individual with the demands of society. Shahryar Hassan’s (Faysal Qureshi) family insists he marry his much younger cousin Sajal (Iqra Aziz), and in his desperation to escape a union he has absolutely no interest in, he applies for a transfer from Karachi to the provincial but ancient city of Sukkar. As a Deputy Commissioner, he meets Imtiaz Saheb (Munawer Saeed), his subordinate in Sukkar, and asks to learns about the special secrets that every city is said to hold. A chance meeting with Imtiaz Saheb’s daughter Emaan (Naveen Waqar), a teacher at a school for special needs children, sets up a chain of events that lead to their marriage. Shahryar’s father (Nadeem) and mother (Ismat Zaidi) are reluctant witnesses to the event, leaving immediately after the Nikkah and disowning their son while outright rejecting any connection with Emaan whom they consider an unwelcome usurper of their own choice, Sajal.
