Plot
Asif (Sajid Hasan) and Shagufta (Atiqa Odho) meet each other after a long time and come to know about each other’s circumstances. Shagufta’s husband, Bilal (Tanveer Jamal) a raging alcoholic, divorced her a while back while Asif has been a widower since his wife died giving birth to their third child, Nail. Shagufta also has three children, two daughters and a son, from her previous marriage and that is the reason her ex-husband keeps harassing and calling her up. Shagufta who has been living for her kids all this time, decides to marry Asif. They both take their children out for a dinner to break the news. Their young ones make peace with this new development pretty quickly after showing a minor rebellion but the more mature, Amal (Aamina Sheikh) and Ali (Mohib Mirza) refuse to give in. The opposition continues and their parents secretly do a court marriage without waiting any longer for approval from their families. Eventually Shagufta moves into Asif's house and in the beginning the opposite parent's kids hate each other. But after some time they begin to become friends and Amal and Ali fall in love. Sanam, Shagufta's other daughter, falls in love with a boy in her college, Mikaal. They eventually get engaged as do Amal and Ali in the end.
