Plot
This serial depicts a complicated yet a very beautiful love story between two persons who belong to entirely different family backgrounds. Geeti (Hira Salman), a carefree and cheerful girl, belongs to a wealthy family. While, Badar (Affan Waheed), a mature guy, has a middle class family background. He works at Geeti's home as his father's manager where he secretly falls in love with her. Whereas, Geeti is interested in her childhood's friend Sameer (Haroon Shahid). Due to some unfavourable situations and misunderstandings, Geeti is forced into marriage with Badar. Apparently, it was in favour of Badar but Geeti was extremely unhappy with this marriage. Despite Geeti's ignorance, Badar stands by her in all difficulties and keeps loving her more and more. The twists of circumstances eventually turns this forced marriage into a successful one and brings together the hearts of two.
