Their brother Guddu (Fazal Husain) is also very simple and supports and respects Arsala.

Arsala is engaged to Atif (Affan Waheed), and Naeema also likes him, so she strives to separate them.

Their father, Sabir (Tauqeer Nasir), works in a factory but doesn't get enough salary.

He breaks their engagement and sends Arsala to his relative Mudasir (Javaid Iqbal)'s house as a maid who gives her thirty thousand rupees monthly.

Haseena's best friend (Rashida Tabassum) requests her to give Arsala to her as a maid after she leaves their job and says she will double her salary.

Arsala comes to her home as she thinks her parents will keep her, but she sees both, Naeema and Atif marrying.

While Arsala, without any choice, leaves her home and goes to work in (Rashida Tabassum)'s house, where her employer Jamal (Saifee Hasan) becomes attracted to her.

Bi Jaan lives with a son Basit (Mohsin Geelani), a daughter-in-law Nasreen (Mariam Mirza), and a granddaughter Zubiya (Zahra Shah).

Shahram (Bilal Khan) is Nasreen's cousin's son and often visits their house.

On the other hand, Shahram is relaxed and happy and, on being advised by his assistant Safdar to do what he wants, he goes to Bi Jaan, where he meets Nasreen and Zubiya.

Arsala requests the social worker (Tahseen) to let her work and provide shelter.

He asks Naeema to give her parents back the money, but she makes a fuss.

On the other hand, Arsala and Shahram are engaged (according to their plan), but Zubiya and her family find out and fight with Bi Jaan about it.

On the other hand, Basit leaves Bi Jaan at an old home, and Shahram accepts Zubiya.

Shahram and Zubiya are getting engaged, whilst Bi Jaan is sick in the old home, and her son refuses to pick up the phone calls concerning her.

Arsala, while leaving, comes across a man who informs Basit about Bi Jaan's critical condition, and she flees to the hospital.

Basit demands the body when Shahram informs them that Bi Jaan's will specified that they should not take her remains to her son's house because of what he did.
