Plot
Omar reaches the point in life where she has to choose between love and friendship. After hiding her long-distance relationship from her dearest cousin for years, Beena still hesitates in disclosing it to Sania when their cousin, Azlan, finally returns to Pakistan. Her reluctance eventually leads to a tragic turn in everyone's life as Sania falls in love with Azlan while their mothers also find them to be a perfect match for marriage.[2]
Being an orphan, Beena lacks the courage to speak her heart out, knowing how much Sania's mother already despises her existence. Beena ends up feeling obliged to prove her loyalty to Sania and sees no point in returning Azlan's phone calls, who had actually promised to make their relationship exclusive.
However, when Nihal's gaze meets Beena's unmarred beauty, he doesn't let anyone stop him from marrying her— not even his disapproving parents. His unconditional love for Beena makes her an easy target for more hatred as his cousin, Ramsha, finds herself more worthy of Nihal's companionship. While Beena struggles for peace in her new home, Azlan refuses to give love another chance.
