''Meharun Nisa'', also known as ''Born Forbidden'', is an Urdu/Hindi language television drama film. It was written by Zafar Mairaj, directed by Kamran Qureshi and produced by Iram Qureshi. Meharun Nisa is said to be based on a true story. The main character in the story is Meharun, who was abandoned as a baby. Born as a result of illegal prostitution, she struggles to shake the stigma associated with the circumstances of her birth. The film was broadcast in 2004 on Indus TV Network in Pakistan & UAE and in 2005 on Zee TV UK & USA as part of film series 'Maa Aur Mamta', which consists of 13 films including Meharun Nisa. ==Plot== While purchasing groceries in the market Yousuf's servant, Qadir (Akbar Subhani), overhears that a newborn baby (Hareem Qureshi) has been abandoned in the midst of piles of rubbish in the market. He hears that the baby has been left there as it is child of a prostitute, and that such a child is left there every one or two months. He is told that it would have been better to have just buried the baby, instead of leaving it there for the animals. Qadir takes the baby to the home of Yousuf, (Talat Hussain) a rich man in the area. Zainab (Bushra Ansari), Yousuf's maid, asks Qadir why he brought an 'illegal' baby to Yousuf's home. Qadir reminds Zainab about what Yousuf said when they found a dead baby in the drain. Yousuf had said that no baby is illegal and that only the actions of prostitutes who threw babies away after giving birth to them should be seen as illegal. Zainab then decides to bring the baby home and name her Meharun Nisa. Her husband Rajab Ali (Taj Niazi), a nasty, idle drunkard, questions Zainab about why she brought the baby to his home when they already had two children, Vikky (Humayun Bin Rather) and Rabia (Uzma Akhter Khanji). Zainab tries to appease him by telling him that Yousuf will bear the baby's expenses and that he does not have to worry about having less money to buy alcohol. English documentary filmmakers happen to hear of Meharun's story and a documentary about her is made and aired on BBC. On watching that documentary, Alina (Samina Kamal), who lives in England, decides to visit Pakistan and ask Zainab if she and her husband can adopt the baby. Zainab was very much attached to baby Meharun Nisa, but she decides to agree to Alina's request in order to give Meharun a better future. Alina and her husband then bring the baby to England. Seventeen years later, Meharun Nisa (Sara Loren) grows up and happens to come across the BBC documentary. For the first time, she understands what happened in her past. She goes to Pakistan to meet Zainab, the lady who first adopted her, who was still living in the same area. During her stay with Zainab's family, she gets mocked because of the circumstances of her birth. Zainab finds it hard to stomach the disrespect shown to her Meharun. Meharun eventually leaves to return to Alina 's House, where she had been a respectable citizen always. ==Cast== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Meharun Nisa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
