Plot
Charming, flamboyant Zain, and pretty, cultured Aaliya have been rival cousins since childhood. They eventually grow up and meet again, but a series of misunderstandings lead them to marry each other. Zain wants to get rid of his "Maammu Ki Bhanji" aka Aaliya as he calls her, as soon as possible. He does not believe in the institution of marriage. His brother, Fahad has two wives, Nafisa and Shazia who hate each other.
Fahad's mom Suraiya wanted a grandson; Nafisa was unable to conceive anymore after having two girls. So, Fahad married Shazia and they had a son. He loves both his wives. Zain Aaliya constantly bickers, but slowly with time, "KitKit and MKB" finally become friends. Zain is injured in an accident. The accident was caused by Rocky, a brothel owner who tries to deceive Aaliya's sister Aayat, but Zain saves her and puts Rocky behind the bars. This accident however brings Zain and Aaliya closer to each other.
Suraiya emotionally blackmails Aaliya, making her leave. But Zain brings her back. Fahad and his father Usman plan to make Zain and Aaliya fall in love. Suraiya dislikes Aaliya and her family because Barkat, her long-lost daughter was kidnapped by Aaliya's estranged uncle, Mir Khan. Zain and Aaliya finally find Barkat. Joyous, Suraiya starts liking Aaliya and her family again, which makes Shazia and Nafisa unhappy.
Zain and Aaliya finally realize their love for each other. Zain feels jealous whenever he sees Aaliya and Zubair together (they are cousins, actually). On the other hand, Nafisa's brother, Rizwan has fallen for Aayat too. Out of angst, Zain unintentionally hurts Aaliya's feelings, who leaves for her hometown Bhopal and leaves a message asking him to realize his mistake. Zain reaches Bhopal and after escaping a tragedy, Zain-Aaliya finally confesses their love for each other and returns home happily.
Aaliya soon finds Barkat's behavior suspicious, and it is revealed she is actually Mir's biological daughter who is after the Abdullahs' family wealth and property. Zain and Aaliya expose Barkat, who is thrown out of the house, but before going, she poisons Suraiya's mind against Aaliya, telling her she is having an affair with Zubair. Thus Suraiya again starts hating Aaliya.
She plots to separate Zain and Aaliya by creating misunderstandings between them. Due to a major misunderstanding created by Nafisa, Zain begins hating Aaliya, unknowingly. Usman meets with an accident and become paralyzed and Aaliya is held responsible for that as she was the one who sent him to the office.
Aaliya gets help from lawyer Rehan, a single father of two children, and a family friend of the Abdullah's. He tries to get to the bottom of the truth regarding the arrest and finds out it was Nafisa. He plots a plan to make her think Usman is alive, which frightens her and causes her to expose herself before him.
Aaliya is still hurt by Zain's mistrust in her and decides to start afresh somewhere else. Having realized her wrongdoings, Nafisa apologizes and tells Aaliya to not reveal for the sake of her daughters. Aaliya forgives and tells her she's moving away. Rehan sends Nafisa's recording to Zain, who realizes his mistake and rushes to stop Aaliya but it is too late. He breaks down but vows to find her and win her back.
1 year later
Aaliya lives in Hyderabad and is a proud owner of "Bawarchi Dhaba". On the other hand, Zain is completely broken and devastated. He is seen always going to Usman's grave and repenting his mistake. He still searches for Aaliya every day. Nafisa has repented and still seeks forgiveness from Zain, who began hating her after her betrayal for a year. She wishes Zain-Aaliya to find their way back to each other.
On a visit to Hyderabad, as fate would have it, Zain finds Aaliya and gets emotional but she is still cold towards him. Heartbroken, Zain attempts to win her back and eventually succeeds. Zain and Aaliya decide to remarry in a mosque, but the Qazi finds out about their divorce and tells Aaliya that she has to do 'Halala Nikah' to remarry Zain.
With no other option left, Aaliya decides to marry Bilal, Zain's cousin, in order to remarry Zain. Bilal gets kidnapped and Aaliya eventually marries Rehan. Zain finds out Rehan is plotting against Suraiya as he thinks she killed his first wife. Suraiya finds out the truth about Aaliya's innocence from Nafisa. It is revealed Suraiya didn't kill Rehan's wife, who indeed committed suicide. Zain saves Rehan's daughter from an accident. Rehan apologizes.
Zain-Aaliya finally gets married. Suriya and Fahad are still cold towards Nafisa but Aaliya tells them to forgive her. Zain's doppelganger, Rocket is brought into the house as Zain by Suraiya's evil sister, Zarina. Later, the truth comes out, and the real Zain appears as he was kidnapped. Again, he and Aaliya are reunited. Regretful, Zarina apologizes.
Nafisa is pregnant again. The whole family is happy except Shazia, who plots to harm her. But Nafisa saves Shazia's son, Saif who is nearly hurt. Shazia also realizes her mistake and accepts she tried to kill the baby, but everyone makes her realize she and Nafisa can't compete with each other, and Fahad treats both wives equally and loves them both.
