Plot

Noor, a young and pretty girl, lives with her mother, Salma Jahan, in the red-light district. Salma Jahan wants to shield Noor from the ills of her neighbourhood and send her to study at the university. Salma has told Noor that her father is no more, but in reality, Noor's father, Wali Khan, a well-to-do businessman, had left Salma (a courtesan or tawaif). Salma's sister Sitara Jahan is the kotha madam. On Noor's first day at the university, she bumps into Zaviyar Khan and learns he is her classmate. Bushra, Zaviyar's cousin (Wali Khan's daughter and Baba Jaan's granddaughter), wants to marry Zaviyar. Murad Khan (Zaviyar's elder brother) gets attracted to Noor when he visits Chanda in the kotha(brothel). Salma slaps him when he tries to force himself on Noor. Later, Murad vows to take revenge.

Zaviyar gets hit by a bullet when he tries to save Noor and Sawal from being abducted by goons. Chanda is in love with Murad, so she is upset that Murad is now obsessed with Noor. Noor and Salma visit Zaviyar in the hospital. Wali Khan and Murad also visit the hospital after learning about Zaviyar's injury. Murad wonders whether Zaviyar was attacked by the goons he had sent to kidnap Noor. Wali and Salma bump into each other at the hospital. Wali tells her that he has been trying to find her for many years. Salma runs away when Baba Jaan arrives there.

Wali Khan visits the brothel to meet Salma. Bushra visits Zaviyar and tells him that the elders are considering fixing their marriage. With Sawal's help, Noor manages to escape from the brothel. She arrives at Wali Khan's house with a letter from her mother for Wali Khan. Upon reading Salma's letter, Wali Khan welcomes Noor home but lies to Nida and Baba Jaan that Noor is his friend's daughter and has come to stay with them as she has lost her parents. Nida is upset with Noor's arrival and suspects something fishy. Baba Jaan also suspects Wali lying, but Wali manages to convince him. Later, Nida and Bushra mistreat Noor.

Baba Jaan is impressed by Noor's modesty and politeness and warms up to her. Later, Baba Jaan decides to get Zaviyar married to Noor. Noor gets ready for her Nikah with Zaviyar. As the Nikah draws closer, Nida's anger increases, and she tells Wali that she will never forgive him for doing this to her and her daughter. Meanwhile, with Bushra's help, Murad hides in Noor's room and kidnaps her. He brings her to a secluded place. At the Nikah, everyone is shocked when Noor is not found anywhere.

When a distraught Zaviyar locks himself in a room and refuses to come out, Murad threatens to shoot himself. A heartbroken Noor returns to the brothel and faints. Zaviyar and Bushra get married.

Zaviyar accidentally overhears Bushra and Murad's conversation, where Murad confesses to Bushra that he kidnapped Noor because he wanted to have Noor and not to help Bushra. Zaviyar then divorces Bushra. She returns to her parents and confesses her involvement in separating Zaviyar and Noor. Noor and Ubaid marry at the brothel, but Murad arrives with a gun and threatens to kill Ubaid. However, Wali Khan shoots Murad before he can do any damage.
