The drama starts with Joyee (Noman Ijaz) walking into Sila's bedroom at night causing her to become terrified and scream. The whole house wakes up but Sila and Sila's mother (Sadia) don't tell anyone what really happened. Joyee has many faces, i.e. on one side he takes care of the household (Noor Manzil), and on the other side targets Sila and her mother, Sadia (Saman Ansari), as Sila's father lives in Canada for business reasons. Aapa (Sakina Samo), who is Sila's paternal aunt and the oldest woman in the household, actually made Joyee her foster brother because he takes care of everything and is able to flatter Aapa and hide his reality. Sila is also engaged to her cousin Raheel (Sheikh Mubashir), her aunt Tullo's (Kinza Malik) son. Sila and Raheel have another cousin, Zaynee (Aamna Malick), the daughter of Nausheen (Munazzah Arif) and Saleem (Noor Ul Hassan), who is Sila's paternal uncle. She is the complete opposite of Sila— very active, kind, and also smart. Sila's only uncle who is supportive of her is (Humayun Gul), Aapa's husband and her uncle, who believes all the discourse surrounding Sila is fake.
