Plot
The story revolves around Masooma, a.k.a. Mo (Nadia Jamil), a working woman and single mother who lives with her fifteen-year-old daughter Maha (Sajjal Ali). After losing her husband in a road accident, Maha becomes Masooma's sole reason for existence; Maha grows into an introvert and is highly possessive of her mother.
One day, Masooma bumps into her best friend's younger brother, Jamal Ahmad, a.k.a. Jo (Fawad Khan). Jamal is Masooma's childhood friend and a divorcee. He visits Masooma's house for dinner and gets along well with Maha. Masooma is surprised as Maha usually doesn't warm up quickly to people. Jo's sister, Poppy (Nausheen), asks Masooma to find a girl for Jo, as she thinks Jo is very young and should remarry. Masooma introduces Shaista (Hira Tareen) to Jo at lunch, where Jo behaves carelessly and shows no interest in the proposal.
Jo starts spending a lot of time with Masooma and Maha, the latter warming up to him even more. Jo soon realises his love for Mo, and waits for the perfect moment to propose to Masooma, leaving her shocked. She refuses as she is a single mother five years older than him. Masooma also feels that Maha will never adjust to having a new father. However, Jo asks her to reconsider her decision as he genuinely loves and respects her and considers Maha, his daughter. Masooma's friend Shafaq (Nadia Afgan) makes her realise that she will never get a better husband than Jo. Shafaq assures her that Jo can be the father figure in Maha's life.
Masooma tells Maha about Jo's proposal and tells her they need someone like Jo in their lives. He has all the qualities of a good companion and a great person. Masooma also says that she will not accept the proposal if Maha is uncomfortable. Though a little taken aback by the proposal, Maha gives her consent to the marriage.
A few days later, Masooma asks Jamal to pick Maha up from school as she is busy with work. When she returns, she finds Maha screaming, seemingly due to Jamal sexually harassing her. Masooma is left guilt-ridden and heartbroken, and she breaks up with Jamal. After six months, Masooma decides to send Maha to London for higher studies, but Maha refuses to go. Maha confides in Shafaq that she framed Jamal because Masooma was falling in love with him, and she had become insecure about losing her mother.
Shafaq tells Maha the importance of Jamal in their lives. Maha then leaves Shafaq's house to apologise to Jamal and tells him why she accused him. Jamal tells her that it is up to her and Masooma to decide whether she wants him in their lives. He also reveals that Masooma is aware of the truth. Jamal explains that after two weeks of the incident, Masooma saw CCTV footage from that day and realised that Jamal was innocent.
Masooma secretly watches Maha apologise to Jamal; both mother and daughter become emotional and hug each other. [5][6]
