Perspective
Kajal (Savera Nadeem), a famous professional eastern classical singer and dancer was invited to a birthday party to perform. She observed the feeling of a mother for a child and wished to become a mother.
Kajal's foster mother (Afshan Qureshi) didn't want her to have a baby, but she insisted and in the end the mother made a deal with Sikander Ali Khan (Ayub Khoso) and decided to sell her virginity to start prostitution.
Her musician, Wafa (Sohail Asghar), told Kajal about her mother's plan and they both ran away leaving the barn in the dark. They moved to another city, got married and started their new life. After some time they had a baby girl, whom they named Mahnoor (moonlight) as they thought she came into the world to enlighten their life.
Mahnoor (Sara Loren) liked a boy Rohail (Kamran Jillani) who loved her very much and wanted to marry her. But the mother wanted her to study as much as she could. The girl shared her feelings with her father who supported her and convinced his wife.
Mahnoor won first prize in a college singing function and was approached by a music company but her mother didn't give her permission. On Mahnoor's refusal, the owner of the music company (Hassan Shaheed Mirza) asked Mahnoor, why her mother didn't like her singing when she herself was very famous for her own singing? Mahnoor who was not aware of her parents' past was a little surprised by this news.
The college function story was covered by the newspaper and Firdos Bai tracked them through that news. Firdos Bai demanded Kajal to give Mahnoor for prostitution and singing at her business place to compensate for the loss she had due to Kajal and Wafa's leaving the barn.
Her father shared the whole story of their past with Mahnoor. Kajal was not prepared to let her daughter go to that place where she left once. Rather she preferred to go herself with Firdos Bai. Mahnoor after knowing the truth about her parents, helped them along with her fiancé. They ordered Firdos and her pimp Gullo (Akbar Subhani) to leave the house or they will contact police and saved her mother.[3][4]
