Mera Naseeb (Urdu: ميرا نصيب, English: My Fate) is a Hum TV drama which aired from 1 April 2011 to 26 August 2011. The drama featured a huge ensemble star cast including Samina Peerzada, Sakina Samoo, Rubina Ashraf, Bushra Ansari, Shagufta Ejaz, Durdana Butt, Sajid Hassan, Adeel Hussain, Imran Abbas, Imran Aslam, Syra Yousuf, Sanam Saeed, Rehan Sheikh, Ali Afzal and Sabahat Bukhari. Indian-American author Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni has accused the writers of the show of plagiarizing her novel Sister of My Heart for the story of the serial. She has also threatened to take legal action against the writers of the show. However the screenplay writer had mentioned earlier before the show's original run that it is a drama adaptation of a story provided to them. Only recently it was mentioned the screenplay writers had no prior knowledge a plagiarized work was being provided to them to work with.
The drama starts with two girls, Shazia (Sanam Saeed) and Nazia (Syra Yousuf) sitting in the garden of their house where they are listening to the stories of their Phupi Ammi (Sakina Samoo). She tells them that they were born on the same day and the same time to two different mothers. A special priest or baba has said that their fate has been intertwined; whatever happens to Nazia will affect Shazia's fate as well, but in a negative way. Nazia, a shy and secretive girl takes this seriously whereas Shazia, a bold and rebellious girl thinks this is all nonsense. When Shazia finds out there is an interesting Bollywood movie that showing at the cinema, she decides that both her and Nazia should go and see the movie even though the elders of their home will not give them consent to do so. They skip college and leave for the movie where they meet Shahbaz who directs them to the proper entrance to the cinema. Being new to the whole concept of movies at the cinema, they buy tickets thinking that the drinks and popcorn will be included. When they are told to pay the bill, Shazia refuses and starts a fight with the cashier. In the meantime, the man who showed them to the entrance, Shebaz, comes in and they find out that he is the owner of the shop. He tries to explain the situation to Shazia and even negotiates with her, but she misunderstands his courtesy for flirting. He then allows them to take the drinks an tells them they can pay him off later.
