In the heartrending tale of "Murdered by My Father", the glow of paternal love collides with the harsh reality of societal expectations. Shahzad, a widower, grapples with the responsibility of raising his two children, Salma and Hassan, after his wife's untimely death. The promise he made to his wife, to secure a fitting husband for Salma, forms the backbone of his fatherly duties. He envisages her future beside his reliable but unexciting colleague, Haroon. Salma, however, is ensnared in the vibrant allure of a clandestine romance with the enchanting yet unpredictable Imi. As she navigates the throes of adolescence, she starts to diverge from her father's path for her, veering away from her studies and towards her secret lover. When Salma musters the courage to ask her father to let her choose her own husband, the volatile fuse of familial duty and honor is lit. The ensuing explosion of rage from Haroon humiliates Shahzad in front of their colleagues, and the discovery of Salma's hidden relationship escalates the tension, pushing her to flee from the confines of her home and into Imi's waiting arms. When Shahzad eventually finds his runaway daughter, the story hurtles towards a devastating climax, leaving no character unscathed. In "Murdered by My Father", the concept of honor clashes with love and personal freedom, culminating in a narrative that is as impactful as it is heart-wrenching.
