Momal claims that she will make Imaad move to her in a couple of days, while Afroz is adamant that her husband is not one of those men who eye on women.

Momal, Imaad and Afroz move for vacations to the hill station where they meet Sameer, who asks Momal to forgive him as Sofian has kicked him out and betrayed him. She slaps him and says never to return. But destiny intervenes and Imaad revokes his love for Momal. Momal wins the bet, but she doesn't want to break Afroz's house, so she moves to an apartment. Imaad tells to Afroz that he loved Momal from the time of university. Afroz is devastated. She questions Momal. Momal is mentally disturbed and tries to suicide but is saved. Afroz feels sorry for Momal and agrees to Imaad marrying Momal. It is found that Aftoz can never get pregnant, and this becomes a source of tension for Afroz and Imaad.

Momal insists Imaad to meet Sameer. At sameer's apartment, Imaad and Sameer are both shocked to find out that Momal married Immad just to halala (an Islamic practice where a woman has to marry another man and then divorce to marry her ex-husband). Sameer is ecstatic, but Imaad is devastated and has a nervous breakdown. Sameer and Momal summon Imaad and Afroz to court. Sameer wants Momal to say in court that Imaad is unable to have a child and that he has made a fake file to portray that Afroz cannot conceive. Momal is a bit reluctant at first but stands against them.

Imaad is shocked to see what Momal is doing, but Afroz is clear that Momal was here just to correct her life and disturb them. Meanwhile, Afroz's friends arrive after vacations and are equally tensed to know about what happened while they were gone. Afroz visits Momal and insults her and even calls her a betrayer. Imaad tries to reach Momal, but Sameer stops him by pointing a gun at him when Imaad tries to meet Momal. Momal and Sameer finalise in court that Imaad is impotent. But later, it is known that Momal is pregnant with Immad's child. Sameer wants her to abort the child, while Imaad is persistent on having his first child. Momal is tensed and confused on what to do. Afroz leaves Immad and requests him to live a happy life with Momal and his child.

Afroz is pregnant, but only she and Imaad's best friend Sami know. Momal is leaving Pakistan forever without Sameer or anyone else and before leaving she tells Imaad that she is returning her case from the court. Afroz has an accident and Imaad is told by Sami that she has had a miscarriage, and now she can not conceive but in reality Afroz is still expecting Immad's child. In the end, Sami is able to get Afroz and Imaad together, while Sameer and Momal also patch up as the four live happily.
