Premise

After completing his studies, Sameer returns to his homeland as the headmaster of the school. Sameer's mother, Dhon Didi arranges his marriage with his childhood friend, Shehenaz, who is born and raised in a wealthy family. Dhon Didi's plans backfire when Sameer begins a romantic relationship with an underprivileged woman, Fathimath Sameeha. Dejected, she declares war against the married couple and determines to make Sameeha's life miserable at any cost. Dhon Didi conspires to prove Sameeha's infidelity, all of which ultimately works in favor of the couple.

However, as the couple manages to survive the worst days of their lives, Sameer falls from a high tree and becomes handicapped which leads him to resign from his post. Sameeha, now pregnant, added with their financial instabilities, is thrown from the house when Sameer dies from further injuries to his previous wound. Shehenaz marries Sameer's younger brother, Nawaz, to avenge Sameeha for snatching her first love, Sameer. The news of Shehenaz and Nawaz's marriage was anticipated to bring fortune to Dhon Didi. However, things did not work out as her plans, when the indolent daughter-in-law treats Dhon Didi as a servant in the house.
