Fayaz (Shafi Mohammed) and Niaz (Ghulab Chandio) are leftmenu sons of a landlord. Fayaz lives in the city with his wife Shagufta Aijaz and son and is a mild mannered peace loving citizen while Niaz is his opposite- cruel and greedy. Niaz kills his father and then gets the only witness (a chowkidar) killed by police putting the blame on him. He then kidanps the poor man's wife and daughter and subjects them to torture. The wife succumbs to the tortures while the daughter Zaino (Sanam Iqbal) is saved by Niaz's mother (Tamanna) and taken under her wing.
Zaino now witnesses Niaz's wife Sonia kill her mother in law and runs away to save her life. All blame is put on Zaino of the murder and police and Niaz are on the look out for her. Meanwhile Fayaz suspects foul play and sends to the village a CIA inspector Asif in the disguise of a forest officer. He too is in the search of Zaino whom he believes to be an eye witness. Zaino is given protection by a poor villager Baba (Anwar Solangi) and his son Qada to whom she is later engaged also. Yet when she finds out Niaz has followed her to this village too she runs away to protect Baba and Qada and sits on the train bound for the city. Niaz too reaches the city and meets his lawyer. Who will find her first? Niaz or Fayaz??? Will good win over evil or not?
Sanam Iqbal in the lead role was good. The youngsters doing the roles of Asif and Qada were good too. Shafi Mohammed and Shagufta Aijaz were wasted in their tiny roles. -by Gina
