Maat (Template:Lang-ur) (meaning defeat) is a Pakistani teledrama broadcast on Hum TV which premiered on 9 September 2011. The drama is based on an Urdu novel of the same name by Umera Ahmed. Maat's last episode was telecasted on 24 February 2012. It is the thirteenth highest-rated Pakistani television series.[1]

Plot

Saman and Aiman are sisters who belong to a lower-middle-class family. Aiman is kind, polite, and deeply respects her elders; Saman, who is younger than Aiman, is overambitious and believes she can give maat (defeat) to anyone at any time. Faisal is enchanted with Saman's beauty and, despite his engagement to Aiman, proposes to Saman. She refuses, but his improving financial status changes her mind.

The marriage is uneasy due to Saman's demanding nature, but the couple have a son, whom they name Hadid. Saman can barely handle her child, so Aiman takes on the role of caretaker. Saman begins an affair with Faisal's business partner, Azar, whom is richer than her husband. After an incident where Saman's attitude towards her mother-in-law leads Faisal to slap her, Saman files for divorce.

Around the same time, Azar breaks his partnership with Faisal. Leaving her family heartbroken, Saman enjoys her life with her new husband. Meanwhile, Aiman's mother and aunt decide to get Faisal and Aiman married.

Twenty-five years later, Hadid has grown to be a successful 27-year-old bachelor. Unknown to Aiman, Faisal has begun an affair with Saman, again, after Azar's death. After being lied to about Hadid wanting Saman back, a heartbroken Aiman leaves. Meanwhile, Saman remarries Faisal. Hadid, discovery of these events leads to his outrage and he accuses Saman of returning only because her former life is gone. He disowns her as well as his father. Hadid brings Aiman home when, although she was resistant at first, she realizes her adopted son was never at fault.

Four years later, Hadid has a wife and son with Aiman living with them. She receives a call from Saman, who apologizes on her and Faisal's behalf, having grown tired of their isolation. Aiman forgives them, but reminds Saman their misery was of her own making. With this, she hangs up, happy with the knowledge she finally gave maat to Saman, after all.
