Gohar-e-Nayab (Urdu: گوہرِ نایاب, transl. A rare gem) is a Pakistani drama television series directed by Sakina Samo, and stars Sajal Aly as the titular role of Gohar,[1] an orphan college student whose indomitable spirit remains unbroken despite the mistreatment she faces in her maternal home. Written by Samra Bukhari, and produced by Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi under 7th Sky Entertainment, the series was broadcast on A-Plus Entertainment in 2013.[2][3]
It marked Aly's third on-screen with Ahsan Khan after Meray Qatil Meray Dildar and Meri Ladli.
Plot
The story revolves around Gohar-e-Nayab, a motherless girl living with her uncle Wahab's family, where she's treated poorly. Despite this, Gori is a carefree and outspoken girl who doesn't let her circumstances define her. In her uncle's house, only her uncle and grandmother care for her. Her aunt Azra and cousin Soniya suspect she's after Wahab's son Kamran, hoping to marry him and become the owner of the house. However, Kamran wants to go abroad for better professional opportunities, but his father refuses, doubting his capabilities. Gori secretly helps him to send him abroad by selling her mother's jewelry. Kamran starts acting ungratefully and does not contact her after settling abroad and returns shortly after, leading to his marriage being fixed with his cousin Rumi.
When Soniya and Rumi start treating Gori badly after the marriage, she shifts to her father's house. There, a relative of them, Fakhra spots her and selects her as the future wife for his son Sami, his cousin. The marriage, however, is actually a plot for revenge by Fakhra due to Gori's father's past actions against Sami's family.
