Aimen, a 20-year-old girl, lives in poverty with her mother, Zainab, in a small town of Nawabshah in Pakistan's Sindh province. When Aimen was an infant, her father, Taufeeq Kamaal, had separated from his first wife, Zainab, and remarried to Almas. Aimen resents her father for this. Just before her death, Zainab writes a letter to Taufeeq and requests that he look after Aimen. Taufeeq, now a business tycoon in Karachi, receives the letter when he is about to leave for Turkey with his second wife Almas and their son Sahir. By this time, Zainab has died. Taufeeq requests his friend and business partner, Haider Masood, to pick Aimen up from Nawabshah and bring her to Karachi.While Taufeeq is away, Aimen stays with Haider, and his aunt Bibi at their residence. Haider senses Aimen's loneliness and is kind to her. After Taufeeq returns, Aimen moves in with him and Almas but struggles to adjust to living with them.
