Plot
[edit]Haider Akhtar is a wealthy businessman who is married to Dua, a kind woman. Their lives take a turn when they meet an outspoken woman, Ghazal, who befriends Dua but clashes with Haider. Haider and Dua offer shelter to Ghazal in their own house after her house gets destroyed by an earthquake. Ghazal falls in love with Haider but tries to forget him for Dua's sake. Ghazal learns that her father, had saved the life of an eight-year old Haider, but Hina was responsible for the death of Ghazal's mother, when Ghazal was an infant. Before dying of cancer, Ghazal's father had proposed Haider and Ghazal's marriage but Hina had declined. Ghazal, instigated by Gulnaaz, pretends to have forgiven Hina but vows revenge.
When Dua discovers Ghazal's grudge against Hina, she attempts to evict her from the house. Ghazal lies to Ruhaan, who was in love with her, that she loves him too and their alliance is fixed. Ghazal manipulates Ruhaan into believing that she and Haider are having an affair and thus Ruhaan runs away on the wedding day with Dua's help. Ghazal gets Ruhaan abducted. Dua is blamed for Ruhaan's escape. Ghazal reveals to Haider that Hina was responsible for her parents' death and out of guilt, he marries her. Ruhaan is rescued and brought back home, but he believes Dua and Haider to be his enemies. Ghazal is finally exposed. The Akhtar family lodge a complaint against Ghazal. Both Ghazal and Dua are revealed to be pregnant with Haider’s child. Still on the run from the police, Ghazal goes into hiding, thus concealing her pregnancy from everyone.
Kaynaat, Haider's sister, gives birth to her son, Subhaan. Dua's baby shower ceremony is interrupted by Ghazal who reveals her pregnancy and demands her rights. Dua allows Ghazal to stay with the Akhtar family. Kaynaat's hatred grows against Ghazal and her unborn child as she considers it to be a threat to her family. Kaynaat is ousted from the house by Dua after she abducts Ghazal. With Dua’s help, Ghazal delivers a baby girl, Ibaadat. Shortly, thereafter Dua too delivers a baby girl, Mannat. Realizing that she won't be able to live happily with Haider ever, Ghazal jumps down from the cliff, pulling Haider along with her, resulting in both of their deaths. Kaynaat blames Dua for Haider's death and later on, she is forced to shift to London with her family after she tried to kill Ibaadat again and vowed revenge on Dua.
22 years later
Unwitting half-sisters, Ibaadat and Mannat are now grown up and share a strong sisterly bond, believing themselves to be twins. Ibaadat values her family the most and has turned out to be simple, confident and sweet. Dua is indifferent towards Ibaadat, who craves for Dua’s love since childhood. The family still despises Ibaadat while Kaynaat returns to India with her family. Ibaadat has been writing emails to Subhaan all these years, under the name of Mannat, so that Subhaan doesn't get upset.
In the present, Subhaan confesses his love for Mannat, thinking she was the one who wrote emails to him, and proposes her. Dua accepts Ibaadat as her daughter and apologises to her for not giving affection to her all these years. Mannat agrees to marry Subhaan but runs away with her lover, Farhaan. Ibaadat and Subhaan get married at Dua's behest while Mannat returns after receiving mistreatment from Farhaan. Ibaadat reveals to Subhaan that instead of Mannat, she was the one who wrote emails to him, and Subhaan feels betrayed because she lied to him all these years. Mannat decides to snatch Subhaan from Ibaadat, after Kaynaat reveals to her the story of Dua-Haider-Ghazal and that Ibaadat is Ghazal's daughter.
Mannat includes Farhaan in her conspiracy and both of them manipulate Subhaan into believing that Ibaadat had pre-planned everything with Farhaan and made Mannat evil in Subhaan's eyes. Subhaan begins hating Ibaadat and starts a love affair with Mannat. Ibaadat discovers their affair as well as the fact that she is Ghazal's daughter. Ghazal is revealed to be alive and has returned after 22 years, to seek revenge on Dua and protect her daughter Ibaadat. Subhaan learns Mannat's true face and reconciles with Ibaadat.
