A flashback reveals Irfan’s exile to a remote island after a violent outburst during a football match. There, he secretly falls in love with Nirasha, a young woman determined to pursue her studies before marriage. Despite her father Aadhanu’s disapproval, Nirasha and Irfan grow close, eventually sharing a risky, emotional night together. Years later, Nirasha’s grown son, Akif, rushes to the hospital after hearing of his mother’s sudden illness, only to learn that she has passed away.

Instead, she is humiliated by Irfan’s mother and sister, while Irfan remains firm in his decision to end things. Soon after, Nirasha discovers she is pregnant, a revelation that leads to her father disowning her. Before she can reconcile with him, he passes away, leaving her to face the burden alone with only the support of her loyal friend Shadhiya. Irfan, pressured by his family and denying responsibility for the unborn child, goes on to marry elsewhere. Nirasha gives birth to Akif, while Irfan’s wife delivers Iyaan. As the years pass, Nirasha struggles to raise Akif amid hardship, while Irfan—unaware of Akif’s existence—rises to prominence as a successful businessman. Akif grows up strong but resentful of the life denied to him, in contrast to Iyaan, who enjoys a privileged and carefree upbringing.

Meanwhile, Iyaan is pressured into joining the family business while also preparing for his wedding to Rasha, a close family friend. The following day, Akif orchestrates a staged attack on Aira by a gang, only to intervene and earn the family’s trust.

Though Rizwan rejects Akif’s initial offer, he entrusts him with leading the project. With his mission advancing, Akif resigns from Irfan’s office and moves out of the family home.
