Adhi Gawahi () is a Pakistani romantic television series that was first aired on 5 July 2017, replacing Nazr-e-Bad. It was directed by Fahim Burney and written by Saima Akram Chudhery. Sohai Ali Abro plays the main protagonist and Azfar Rehman plays the antagonist in their fifth on-screen joint appearance after Tanhai, Dhol Bajnay Laga, Tumhari Natasha and Kaisi Ye Paheli. Overview Salwa and her cousin Saad are going to get married, but their schoolmate Hamdan approaches with pictures and video of his marriage contract with Salwa, which was recorded as a joke. The title refers to the Islamic tradition that in a court of law the claims of one witness who is a man can be overturned by two who are women. Since Salwa is fighting Hamdan by herself this makes her a "half-witness" (aadhi gawahi) against him. Plot The story revolves around Salwa and Saad, childhood best friends and cousins, Hamdan and the issue of an unintentional nikkah. Salwa is a modern, sweet, kind and fun-loving girl living with her mother, her uncles and their respective families following the death of her father. Most family members are quite happy with this arrangement, especially Saad's mother and the older Bhabhi, Rana, who sees Salwa as her own and wants her son and Salwa to get married. This does not sit well with the younger Bhabhi Khawla, who sees Salwa as competition for her own daughter, Soha, who is deeply in love with Saad and deeply despises her for the attention Saad reserves just for Salwa while basically ignoring Soha. Enters Chaudhry Hamdan Mustafa, a rich, egoistic, spoiled brat who fancies Salwa and is deeply possessive about her. Not only is he possessive about her but he would do just about anything to ensure that Salwa is his. He is used to getting what he wants, courtesy of his mother who turns a blind eye to all of his faults out of love, and to him Salwa is no different. Salwa dislikes Hamdan and his backward mentality, but puts up with him for the sake of Saad and the rest of their friends. The five are students of media studies in a prestigious university. Their semester is coming to an end, but there is one last production assignment standing in the way of these friends - a short film that is due very soon. At first everything is seemingly fine,
