Zara Yaad Kar (Urdu: ذرا یاد کر)( English: Just remember) is a 2016 Pakistani drama serial that aired on Hum TV from March 15, 2016 to September 20, 2016. It is directed and produced by Amna Nawaz Khan under her production company and written by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar. It stars Zahid Ahmed, Yumna Zaidi and Sana Javed.
The story revolves around Hadi (Zahid Ahmed) and Mahnoor (Sana Javed), who are first cousins and married (Nikkah). Hadi is a simple man, with a limited earning but earnestly in love with Mahnoor. He lives in a rented room in a house owned by Ikhtiar Ali (Rashid Farooqui). Ikhtiar and his college-going daughter Uzma (Yumna Zaidi) both hold Hadi in high regard due to his impeccable character and calm demeanor. Hadi is immensely caring and protective towards Mahnoor, whom he treats as the center of his universe. He is also broad-minded and encourages Mahnoor to work and be self-sufficient. Uzma, who is unaware that Hadi is married, is drawn to him due to his likeable nature. She ends up writing a letter to Hadi confessing her crush on him. Hadi gently rebukes her, letting her know that he is married and deeply in love with Mahnoor. He shows the letter to Mahnoor thinking that he should not hide anything from his wife.
Mahnoor on the other hand is not as emotionally invested in the relationship as Hadi. Her selfish side emerges when she meets her new neighbour Waqar who teaches Urdu in a local college. Mahnoor finds Waqar wealthier and more attractive than Hadi. Her greed leads to her asking Hadi for divorce so that she can marry Waqar. Her selfish act creates a rift between her and her mother Aneesa (Saba Faisal) and leaves Hadi heart-broken. Although deeply hurt, Hadi agrees to divorce Mahnoor as he believes Mahnoor's feelings for Waqar to be genuine. He agrees to the divorce in order to preserve his own self-respect and also because he believes in letting go the woman who doesn't love him.
