Parosi tells the story of two sisters. Jahan Ara, who is a single parent as her husband left her for a wealthier woman, and Roshan Ara, who is much more mature and composed as compared to her elder sister. They, along with Haryali Bua, come to live in a house they have rented from Shahnawaz, who is a very strict man living with his nephew Arsal. The comedy of errors starts as Jahan makes the life of her landlord miserable. Roshan Ara and Arsal fall in love.
The drama serial was shot in Murree and Islamabad and was well received by the audiences. It is considered to be one of Haseena Moin's best works. It featured the great actresses Khalida Riyasat and Marina Khan and it was a treat for the viewers to watch both of them perform together. The drama serial has had several reruns on TV and its DVDs are still in demand.
