Synopsis

The story revolves around Daniyal Malik (Meekal Zulfiqar), a rich and humble person who has bet his friends that he would make Naina Syed (Sadia Khan) fall in love with him during her stay at Daniyal's house with her family. The story then takes a turn when Daniyal comes to know about his past. Naimat Khan, informs him that he's adopted. He finds out that with the parent he's living with are not his real parents. He was given to them, because his dad couldn't take care of him because of his step mother. The marriage was kept secret, that's why Daniyal's mother had to sacrifice his son and leave him.

Daniyal goes to search for his birth parents and finally meets a man who is aware of the truth. It is later revealed that Naimat Khan was his dad's servant and wanted to take revenge and that is why he had approached Daniyal. Naimat Khan's daughter was murdered by Daniyal's step mother and Naimat Khan wanted Daniyal to take revenge from his step brother, Dilawar. His step family was very rich but it was Naimat Khan's wish that Daniyal takes over his dad's place as peer and not Dilawar. However, Dilawar gets to know the truth and finds out that Daniyal is his step brother and is about to kill him but a lady instead takes the bullet. That lady is a good friend of Daniyal's real mother, who is also a lawyer. Meanwhile, Daniyal is sent to prison because the police thinks it is him who tried killing the girl. Daniyal's mother takes up his case and helps him in getting out of prison. Naina helps him too. Later, the lady who took the bullet, gains consciousness and declares that Daniyal did not shoot her. She also says that she is Daniyal's mother. She knew the truth, just when Dilawar shot her. However, whilst knowing the truth she gets so shocked and overwhelmed with emotions, because she thought Daniyal was dead. She approaches Daniyal and tells him the truth.
