Her family receives a proposal from her uncle Jameel's friend's son, Usman, and they get engaged. One day, while visiting Tipu, Sarmad see Shabeeh and convinces Tipu that he likes her and wants to marry her. Tipu sees Sarmad as a better match for Shabeeh, and convinces his family to break off Shabeeh's engagement with Usman and to marry her to Sarmad. After Shabeeh's marriage with Sarmad, she realizes that he has severe mood swings and has psychological issues. On their wedding night, he drags her out of the house and leaves her outside in the cold all night. Sarmad often wakes up screaming while sleeping and blames Shabeeh for ruining his life.

Even though Taimoor was married and had a son, Neelam kept persuading him to leave his wife. Taimoor's Wife couldn't see him having an affair with Neelam so she becomes depressed. Neelam goes back to Pakistan and there her parents get to know her relationship with Taimoor, they are very upset because of this and her brother forces her to marry who ever will bring her a proposal. Neelam's mother tells him not to force her and wait for better proposal but he doesn't agree and she is married right away to a not so good looking guy. She doesn't love him even though her husband loves and cares for her a lot. Taimoor decides to come to Pakistan because he couldn't live without Neelam and his wife becomes extremely depressed and becomes mentally disturbed and that is how she falls from upstairs and dies. After her death Taimoor tells Neelam to leave her husband and marry him. Initially, Neelam refuses as she is pregnant.
