Zubeida (Savera Nadeem), more commonly known as Bari Aapa, is the central character of the telenovela who possesses a rigid and dictatorial nature and her husband, Farmaan (Noman Ijaz), likes to stay out of her way. Zubeida's only daughter, Sharmeen (Sarah Khan), is in love with a man named Essa (Fahad Mirza) and wants to marry him but Zubeida doesn't agree to the union. Sharmeen decides that the only way to convince her mother is to talk to her uncle, Ghazanfar (Waqas Khan), who is the only man Zubeida listens to because Zubeida and Ghazanfar used to like each other when they were young. But at the same time Sharmeen gets to know that her mother has already decided of getting her married to Ghazanfar's son, Adeel (Mustafa Changazi), who happens to be Zubeida's nephew. Adeel had always loved Sharmeen. But as Adeel's mother, Firdouz (Arjumand Rahim), i.e. Zubeida's younger sister, doesn't want him to marry Sharmeen, Adeel refuses and Zubeida gets angry on her younger sister. And it is soon later that Zubeida gets to know that her husband has secretly got married for the second time to a lady named, Neelam (Ayesha Khan Jr).
