Plot
Miraal is an arrogant young woman belonging to the elite class who is controlling and egoistic in nature. In short, she is a narcissistic person. Her father, Seth Fareed is a wealthy businessman who supports her even in her negative thinking while her mother and grandmother try to make her understand the values of life and that everything in this world is mortal. She always misbehaves with her grandmother when she advises her that her beauty and intelligence would fade one day. Her younger brother, Hassan Fareed is somehow influenced by her and is studying engineering. Anaya Aziz is an ambitious, strong-headed, women's-rights activist studying at the same university as Hassan. She and Hassan clash when she defeats him in an engineering model competition. Hassan insults her in response. She taunts Hassan about him being dependent on his father for everything while he himself hasn't achieved anything by himself. Hassan is deeply influenced by her words and starts to make money through online jobs and starts to take public transport.
He starts liking Anaya because of her differentiated and independent thinking. Miraal seeing a change in Hasan and not being able to control him anymore finds out about Anaya and their dispute and her brother's newly found love for her. She reaches the university and openly insults Anaya to which Anaya calmly responds and Miraal slaps her in anger. This news reaches Hassan and he confronts Miraal. Their grandmother dies and Miraal begins to feel disturbed. Hassan helps Anaya in taking down a guy who was blackmailing her friend and in response gets shot. He is recovered and proposes Anaya which she accepts. He sends his parents to her house where his father (who supports Miraal that Hasan should not marry Anaya as she comes from middle-class background) humiliates her parents while his mother apologizes to them for misbehavior. Anaya for her parents' respect then rejects Hassan's proposal but then finally gives in after his persuasion. They get married but Miraal does not attend the ceremony. She also burns Anaya and Hassan's room on their wedding night and tries to take revenge by marrying on the same day but her fiancé Ali flees on the wedding day. Their Walima is also cancelled due to Miraal and Fareed Sahab threats. Anaya also joins company whereas Fareed Sahab makes Miraal Ceo of the company. Miraal degrades Anaya. She remains calm and collected despite Miraals behavior while Hassan attempts to make his father understand about Miraal's doings. Miraal's senses become overshadowed by her grandmother's words and she began to see psychiatrist Dr. Haris who falls in love with her. When Miraal slaps Anaya in front of employees, Anaya feels humiliated and leaves office and goes to her parents' house. Hasan, upon learning of this, decides to leave the house while his father still supports Miraal.
They get home on rent and Anaya and Hassan starts finding jobs for making money. Anaya gets a job. But unfortunately, the supreme court said that no construction takes place in the country for six months. This news makes Anaya and Hassan upset about jobs. Dr. Haris proposes to Miraal. Then Miraal talks to her parents who agreed about Miraal's decision. They marry. Hassan gets a job through his friend Atif in Yasir Qureshi's office where he is mistreated and humiliated on a daily basis whereas Anaya gets promoted in her office. Hassan’s friend Atif starts to create doubts in his mind about Anaya upon Miraal's request. Hassan starts to believe that Anaya has an affair with her boss, and confronts her on the day Anaya goes to the doctor to realise that she is expecting a child. She realizes Hassan’s doubtful nature and does not reply to his accusation and does not even tell him about her pregnancy. Hassan returns to his parents' house. After some time, Anaya's father dies which breaks her completely. The money her dad has saved also gets wasted by frauds. Anaya gets a leave from her office and bakes cakes for her living. She has a baby boy and names him Ibrahim Aziz, her father's name. On the other hand, Miraal finds out his husband is still continuing his job, which infuriates her and she leaves her home and threatens her husband that she will get a divorce. Ali returns and realizes he can't live without Miraal so he apologises and starts to create space in Miraal’s heart for him. Miraal decides to take divorce from Haris while Haris does not want to take divorce. Then Anaya resumes her office and on the first day of her office, she learns that her new boss is Yasir Qureshi.
