In the opening scene, he drags his cousin Sakina out of a place where she is about to have Nikkah with a person she loves.

Moosa’s father the Peer decides to marry off Sakina with Essa so that in this way their family honor remains intact. Essa already has a crush on Sakina since his childhood, he agrees to his father’s decision. Unlike his brother Moosa, Essa is shown as a soft heart and kind guy. On her wedding day, Sakina cursed Moosa that may he also fall in love with someone and may he also goes through the pain of not getting his beloved. Well, it seems that her wish comes true because Moosa gets attracted to a girl Zohra wearing a veil in a bus. Moosa’s ideal girl is the one who is extremely pious and no one has ever seen her.

Moosa’s heart gets broken when he finds Zohra’s reality, she is a harlot and she dances at parties to earn a living for her Anna Jee. Zohra’s reality has not to slow downed Moosa’s passion for that girl. He is extremely passionate to get her at any cost. In the meantime, Peer Sahab fixes Moosa’s engagement with his friend’s daughter who is also a Peer.

Zohra being an arrogant girl rejects to marry him and tells him saying that he still needs to prove himself to her and needs to win her heart first. Moosa respectfully drops her back home but Anna Jee has already called the Police. Police Officer visits Peer Sahab and there he gets to know about his son’s whereabouts he tells the officer to shoot Moosa if he resists as he disowns him.

Peer Sahab allows Sakina to slap Moosa. Sakina slaps so hard on Moosa’s face and there Imran Asharaf has given an award-winning performance with his expressions, he has tears in his eyes and a broken smile. Then comes his father putting off his dastaar from his head, Moosa has lost everything for his passion and yet it seems that his love is cursed.
