The series, Mariam Khan – Reporting Live has a Muslim background and tells the tale of the Nawabs of Bhopal from the eyes of an 8-year-old dyslexic girl, Mariam, who wants to become a reporter when she grows up just like her father.
Synopsis
Mariam Khan is an imaginative child who doesn’t take things at face value. She idolizes her uncle and foster father Majaaz, an idealistic journalist and newspaper owner.
Mariam plans to be a reporter and shares an emotional bond with Majaaz. Unbeknownst to the younger generation, Majaaz is accused of terrorism and shot dead while a pilgrim, Anjum takes away young Mariam.
10 years later
Now grown up, Mariam adopts the name Manjeet Kaur to escape her past and begins living in Amritsar and working as an independent cab driver. While taking her passenger to meet Fawad (in fact Madeeha’s fraternal nephew), she is shocked to see Majaaz’s photo in his hand.
Later on, she learns that her ostensibly dead family is actually alive and her house didn’t burn down. Fawad’s mom Rifat (Madeeha’s sister-in-law) misled Mariam that they died so that she could own the ancestral home in her name.
Mariam and Fawad fall in love. Alive, Majaaz turns out to be not terrorist and joins them. Fawad and Mariam get married. Then enters Fawad and his ex-girlfriend and Bhakti’s daughter Cheeku. It is exposed that she isn’t his daughter.
In reality, Rifat blackmailed Bhakti to say so but she denied. She then killed off Bhakti & created a fake story that Cheeku is Fawad’s daughter. Rifat is arrested. Mariam and Fawad adopt Cheeku, and everyone lives happily thereafter.
Mariam Khan – Reporting Live debuts on Wednesday, August 4.
