Bilqees Kaur

Bilqees Kaur (Urdu: بلقيس كور) is a Pakistani drama serial directed by Adnan Ahmad, written by Faiza Iftikhar, and produced by Momina Duraid. It aired from 15 April 2012 to 26 August 2012 on Hum TV. Set in New York City, Karachi, Lahore, and Gujranwala, the serial focuses on a conservative Pakistani family living in New York whose domineering matriarch finally meets her match in her youngest daughter-in-law.

Bilqees Kaur is the story of Balwant Kaur and Iqbal Bhatti, a Pakistani-origin couple with a conservative lifestyle living in New York for 30 years. To maintain their traditional ways, the couple gets their son and daughter married into Pakistani families. However, the younger son, Sultan, thinks differently and chooses the bold and confident Soha as his wife.

Born Balwant Kaur, Bilqees is a converted Muslim who is shown to follow the religion but goes to the Gurudwara once a week to pray for her late parents. She is shown to be a controlling and oppressing mother and seems to have traditional views. However, in the end, it is revealed that she is overprotective, as she wants her children to do well. Bilqees's actions are driven by her guilt for eloping with Iqbal and hurting her family. Ironically, in trying to keep her new family close and subdued, she has been driving them away.

Sultan wants to pursue a white-collar job and is continuing his studies meanwhile. He is shown to be attracted to his boss Liz at the start and proposes to her, but she believes in cohabiting over marriage. Sultan rejects her because of this idea and goes to Pakistan to attend his friend's wedding. There, he falls in love with Soha and marries her without his family's presence.

She is an orphan and lives with her sister, brother-in-law, and their son. She realises her brother-in-law has wrong intentions towards her, and in a rushed decision to save her sister's married life, she marries Sultan without her sister knowing the real cause of her rushed marriage to Sultan. After marriage, she comes to New York, where she clashes with Bilqees, her mother-in-law.

Peeno is married to Sultan's older brother Inayat (also her first cousin) and works tirelessly in Bilquees' restaurant without recognition. Despite being married for eight years, she has no children nor her husband's love and attention. However, things start to improve for her after Soha's arrival.

Bilqees' eldest son. He is a nighttime taxi driver in New York and has little feelings for his wife Peeno and does nothing for her when his mother beats her up occasionally. He enjoys going to dance shows of Pakistani actresses and gambling.

Bilqees' youngest daughter. She goes to college, and her mother seems proud of her lack of interest in fashion and boys. However, she has fallen in love with a foreign Indian-Muslim student who has come to study in America.
