Whereas Azaan is in love with the wealthy and spoiled Sania, who lives in London. Azaan shares his love story with his beloved brother Kabir. Unfortunately, Afreen's joy is short-lived. Kabir suddenly dies in an accident. Circumstances lead Afreen to marry her brother-in-law (i.e., Kabir's younger brother) Azaan, who has never got along with her. One misunderstanding after another affects the relationships in the family. However, as time passes, Azaan and Afreen begin to like each other. They fall in love. Azaan cares for Afreen. Sania lands in Dubai and try to create misunderstandings between Azaan and Afreen. But every time they come close to each other. Sania threatens Afreen for spoiling her life. So Afreen decides to leave Azaan for the sake of Sania. They decide to remain separate when Azaan comes to no the truth of Sania. And then they unite. Time passes They live happily. Afreen delivers a baby boy, Kabir, who they keep. Zarin Khan behaves rudely toward Afreen. Azaan and Afreen hate each other they decide to divorce. But Afreen decides she will not give divorce until she learns who is behind Kabir's death. Then the family realises Zarin was responsible for the family's mishaps. Azaan and Afreen start their new life with much love and care with their baby Kabir, and they live happily thereafter. One day, they see a man who is exactly like Kabir.
