Story

Set in the 1980s Pakistani society and based on the writer's real-life story, Sadqay Tumhare follows the story of Shano (Mahira Khan). On the very day when Shano was born, her maternal aunt, Inayat, lovingly asks Shano's mother, Rasheeda, for Shano's hand in marriage for her son, Khalil (Adnan Malik).

Cousins Shano and Khalil know about their engagement from a very young age but spent most of their childhood apart from one another as Shano is a village girl and Khalil is from the big city. Shano is a simple small-town girl from Balgan, who takes her engagement seriously and shares her feelings often with her best friend, Humera (Sania Shamshad), while Khalil, who has been treated like the 'Prince of Punjab' his entire life and is rather arrogant, does not reciprocate the feelings that Shano feels for him. Shano is desperate to meet Khalil, as the two haven't met or seen each other for a long time. However, Khalil does not have any interest in meeting his fiancée. Shano felt this time again, she will return from her grandmother's house hopeless and disappointed. But that night Khalil has a dream, in which he saw Shano and that's when he decides to go. At the wedding, it is revealed that Rasheeda and her husband, Amin, have gone back from their word and are now ending the engagement. When Shano and Khalil see each other for the first time in 10 years, they immediately fall in love. They even try to meet in person but Rasheeda prevents it. So Inayat and her husband, Abdur Rehman, tell them that they will be coming the next week to their house to ask with a proper proposal for Shano.

Two days before Khalil's parents are supposed to come, Khalil comes to visit Shano. He finds out that her parents want her to marry her paternal cousin Fayaz . Shano's parents reject Khalil's parents' proposal that Khalil marries Shano. Shano then writes to Khalil and he sets off to meet her. Dr Maqsood tries to stop him knowing that Fayaz might hurt him but he goes anyway. When Khalil gets there, Fayaz and his friends take him to a vacant space and beat him up. Khalil gets beaten up by all of them until he picks up a log and beats Fayaz and all of his friends until the Moulvi (Qavi Khan) saves them. Dr Maqsood plans for Shano and Khalil to marry in court, despite both of their objections. Khalil tells Shano that they will never elope.

Later on, Khalil and Shano end up making plans to get married with the help of Dr Maqsood. On the day when they are supposed to get married, a marriage proposal for Shano comes from Humera's cousin, the inspector's son. Rasheeda says yes to the proposal and arranges for their nikkah (marriage), that same day. When night falls and it is almost time for ceremony Humera helps Shano run away to Khalil. Everybody finds out that Shano ran away, so they go searching for her. Khalil takes Shano at their maternal grandmother's place where their maternal uncle also helps them but when they're about to get married the police along with Shano's father (Amin) reaches there and stops the marriage. Khalil hides Shano safely.

Khalil takes Shano to the mosque to get married. Her mother finds about their plan and fakes hanging herself. Shano's sister informs the couple before the marriage happens.

Rasheeda emotionally blackmails Khalil and forbids any relationship between them. Khalil agrees. Later Humera tells Shano that it was all planned by her mother (Shano running away etc.). Khalil is arrested for kidnapping Shano and forcing her to marry him. Shano says the truth in court, resulting in Khalil's case being thrown out. She goes to live with her grandmother. Shano's father promises to get Shano married to Khalil if she goes back home. Shano agrees and date is fixed.

A day before marriage, Rasheeda tells Amin that she still loves Abdur Rehman (Khalil's father) and Amin gets paralysed. While away at hospital Rasheeda admits her love to Abdur Rehman and gets all clingy. Dr Maqsood witnesses this and informs Shano. Khalil and grandmother visit Shano at her house where they stay to take care of her. On the other hand, Humera (Shano's best friend) falls in love with Khalil. Humera tells Shano that according to her priest if Shano leaves Khalil, her father will get well. Shano chooses her father. Her father actually gets well.

One day Khalil hugs Humera to stop her cough because Humera did the same earlier. Shano is angry and tells Khalil the real reason they can never get married.

His mother's ex-husband was an immoral person and seduced young Rasheeda. Inayat divorced him. Meanwhile, she told everything to Abdur Rehman who was Rasheeda's fiancé at the time. He got heartbroken and ends up marrying Inayat instead. Inayat was pregnant with ex-husband's child at the time so Khalil is not Abdur Rehman's son.

Khalil and Abdur Rehman cry over the past. The same night Inayat gets sick and dies a day later.

Khalil and Shano marry different people and try to live their lives. Two years after these events Shano dies of depression. Khalil goes to her funeral and meets her husband who seeks forgiveness from Khalil. Khalil forgives. But Khalil is very angry with Rasheeda and pushes her away. Amin who is still paralyzed also asks for forgiveness and Khalil forgives. Shano's sister asks Khalil to meet Shano's son who she had named Khurram ("kha" from Khalil and "ru" from Rukhsana which was Shano's real name and "m" for Mohabbat. They had planned to name their child earlier). Before leaving he looked at the roof of the house and saw Shano's spirit/shadow looking at him and left.
