Doraha (Urdu: دوراها) (Crossroad) is a Pakistani drama television series which premiered on Geo Entertainment on 17 October 2008. It is an adaptation of an Urdu novel Mein Ne Khawabon Ka Shajar Dekha Hai, written by Umera Ahmed. The serial is produced by Humayun Saeed and Abdullah Kadwani's production house 7th Sky Entertainment and directed by Mehreen Jabbar.

In an audio interview given to Raju Jamil, Humayun Saeed revealed that given the success of Doraha 7th Sky Entertainment is planning to produce a second season of the serial with the same cast. However, the sequel was never made and the reasons remain unknown.
Shahla (Sanam Baloch) and Umer (Humayun Saeed) are cousins living in the same neighbourhood. They both belong to middle families, but as Shahla is the only girl of her parents her family is better off than Umer's. Umer is six years older than Shahla and adores her like a little sister. But Shahla fancies him and tries to show him her feelings time and again by making him Biryani and many other delicious dishes. Umer is doing his graduation and is in love with his fellow university mate Sara (Sonia Rehman), who belongs to a sound family and when she tells her parents (Mohammed Ahmed, Ismat Zaidi) about Umer's proposal, they immediately refuse to give permission. But that gets sorted and her parents give their permission for this marriage. However, Umer's mother (Badar Khalil), who wanted Shahla and Umer to get married, refuses to accept her new daughter-in-law and doesn't even pretend to be happy on their wedding day.
