Master of both worlds, 22 years have passed. How many seasons have come and gone, but the season of this heart has never changed. No other flower has ever bloomed in it except one. Those desolate lands that have become the destiny of these eyes, they remain the same even today. Thinking about this, my heart feels a strange state, that it was just yesterday when you snatched them away from me. They, who were my faith, my love, my happiness, the reason for my existence, my husband.
[Music]
Haider, if I am alive today without Haider, there is only one reason: Haider's trust, our daughter, Mannat.
[Music]
[Music]
The coming tomorrow passes over me like a torment. I cannot decide whether to celebrate my daughter's arrival into this world or to mourn the loss of my husband. My only plea, my Lord, is to keep my Haider's soul under the shadow of Your mercy, and grant my Mannat patience. I am very afraid of her impulsiveness.
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
Keep your dupatta safe, or I will set it on fire. Whenever I see you, you remain like a black and white heroine from the 19th century. Hey, girls have reached the moon, but you are still stuck in your dupatta. My God, keep my Mannat in Your protection.
[Music]
Prayer.
[Music]
A mother cannot ask for anything more from Allah for her daughter. May God always keep such a praying mother safe. I am completely sure, Ammi, that you must have said Amen with your whole heart. Indeed, but you only prayed for one. You have two daughters, don't you? Children are like a mother's eyes. If even a speck of dust gets into one eye, the pain is equal. You asked for many prayers for one daughter.
[Music]
But you didn't even mention the other. Give prayers to the other one too. Definitely, Ammi.
[Music]
Definitely. O my Lord, grant Haider's daughter all the happiness of the world. Give her all the joys of the universe. Fulfill all the desires of her heart.
[Music]
She knows how to worship. What does your motherly love want? That child has been longing for two drops of your affection. She wants to hear the word "daughter" from your mouth. Prayer, worship, is also worthy of your love, like Mannat. Hello, Ibbu. I agree that you are Haider Akhtar's daughter, but why do you always flaunt him? Oh, father, leave it. Let's go, we're getting late. We can't be late. Mannu, because of your storm-like speed, we have reached exactly on time today. We have reached on time, but your embroidery, knitting, whatever, will make us late. Please put this trouble away. This is not trouble, it's Ammi's gift. Speak carefully. I have to give it tomorrow evening, so I am completing it. Sooner or later, the world will know that Ibadat is not treated well in this house. Ammi, she is considered an outsider. Ammi, there is no such thing. No one considers Ibadat an outsider. She is Haider's daughter. Not only Haider's blood flows in her veins, but also that unfortunate Ghazal's. Ammi, for God's sake, how many times have I told you not to take her name in this house? I don't want the shadow of her name to fall on the new generation of the Akhtar family. She and her name are both buried. For the world, Ibadat is Haider and my daughter, Mannat's twin sister, and this is the reality. Ammi, which no one will lift the veil from, not you, not you, not me, and not anyone else in this house. Dua, who is Ibadat's?
[Music]
I admit, Dua, and I know very well that you have given Ibadat everything that you have done for your daughter. A life of comfort, excellent education, a beautiful future. But tomorrow is Ibadat's 22nd birthday. Give her the gift she has been waiting for since childhood. Once, call Ibadat "daughter" and embrace her. I swear to God, there can be no better gift for her than this. Okay, tell me, Mannu, how is this?
[Music]
Gift? As always, super.
[Music]
Awesome. But tell me one thing, it's our birthday tomorrow, we should both get gifts. You are preparing a gift for Ammi.
[Music]
You ask this question every year. This time, you will definitely get the answer. Just pray that Ammi likes my gift. If she likes it, then tomorrow I will unveil this mystery. Just tell me, who do you want to make Ammi feel motherly towards? Hamda, towards her whose mother caused my Dua to lose her husband, my son. God knows why we are still giving her refuge. If she were thrown into an orphanage, it would increase my peace. Ammi, stop it. How can I stop? I know that you don't like Ibadat, but that won't change the reality that she is my Haider's blood. God, she has as much right to this house as Mannat. May God protect me. My life has become hell in this house. Allah, what happened now? Since morning, no one has asked me for tea, water, or breakfast. I intend to starve. Where have they all gone? Does anyone care about me in this house?
[Music]
Why are you screaming your lungs out every morning, Gulnaz? You've turned the whole house upside down. Hey Gulnaz Bibi, you've cut your hair, why don't you cut your throat a little too? I mean, your voice would be a little lower, and it would be less painful for our ears. Ammi, sister, I swear to God, Gulnaz Bibi, when you scream like this every morning, our whole day is ruined. Stop it. Hey, your voice is the most terrible, I swear to God. Hey, O Razia, hey, will you give breakfast when your funeral comes out from hunger? Razia, thank you so much, Razia. We thought you wouldn't come. Hey, how can I not come? I'll cut your braid and roam all over Delhi. You made all this fuss for this? Razia, Razia, you have a handkerchief in your hands. You are no less of a commotion. I am so happy that you have come. By the grace of the Almighty, my heart is pounding. Don't bring the matters of the house to court. I'm not thinking, I'll be very disgraced, and the family will fire me. Razia, this disgrace, disgrace, all that is old news. You have to fight for your rights, and no one can get you your rights except the law of our country. She's right. Have courage. And Ammi says, what does she say? Ammi says, "Get up, tie your waist, why are you afraid? Then see what God does." Yes, so don't be afraid, and go inside and shake the world. Come on.
[Music]
[Music]
Ji, Ji, Man Ji. I have a question, Ma'am. Please, Ma'am, please, Ma'am. Who called you? I called. Idiot! Why? We are going to do such a daring thing, shouldn't everyone know? There should be publicity, right? What if we both go viral? You are absolutely crazy. Not crazy, smart. You never take credit for anything. Why should I miss my chance? I came here to support you, so I should get some limelight too, right? What you did was absolutely right, Mannat. If these people hadn't come, how would our voice reach the rest of the people? Job, my crazy sister, let's go, let's go, it's getting very late. Let's talk first. Hey, O Razia, where did you disappear? Hey, Nigar, son, son, did you find out where she disappeared? That Razia's child. Look at the whole house. Grandma, Razia is nowhere. Well, today I will definitely fire this Razia's child from her job. Along with Razia, you will have to fire two more from this job. Ask them to fire Ibadat Appi and Mannat Appi from their jobs. Anyway, they took Razia with them. Both of them, the police will be here any moment. Police! Allah! Do you know how Mannat Appi drives? She must have run someone over. That's why all three have been missing since this morning.
[Music]
Are they missing since morning, or were they out all night? Hey, Chingari, why are you setting fire? Yes, stop spreading rumors, understood? By the way, Gulnaz Bibi, this granddaughter of yours and Ruhana's offspring, Gulnaz, all her qualities are yours. Even if she is like her grandmother, this grandson of the grandmother has all the qualities of the elder aunt, right? Why, elder aunt, didn't I say correctly? Indeed.
[Music]
Arman, you said it absolutely right. Hey, all this stuff. Tomorrow is the anniversary of the elder father, so all this stuff will be distributed among the poor and needy. And these are some gifts. In celebration of Mannat's birthday, they will be given to poor women. May God always keep you prosperous, son. You take care of everyone so much. He takes care of everyone, except Ibadat. Arman, son, tomorrow is Mannat's birthday, so you are distributing all these gifts. Did you forget that tomorrow is also Ibadat's birthday? We will distribute for her too. There is no shortage of anything in our house. By the way, where have these two girls disappeared? Hello, what really? Okay, okay, I'll see too. Whose phone was it? Is everything alright? Badi Ammi, I don't know. We'll find out soon. You, quickly put on the news. News. Ma'am, how did you think that polygamy should be banned in your society, and how did you think of filing a petition in court? Ma'am, why do you think polygamy should be banned in Muslim society, even though you are also a Muslim? Look, don't look at it from a religious point of view. We also know that the laws made in Islam are for everyone's well-being. But when that law is misused, it becomes necessary to change it. We are just saying this much, and this is our PIL. My Lord, have these girls gone mad? What is this extreme behavior? You see, both these girls are fighting for the rights of the women of the country. Ammi, we should encourage them. No, Dua, you don't understand. In the eyes of the community, this is not bravery, it is blasphemy. Blasphemy. After this petition, you might face opposition in your society. Are you afraid of it? No, my Ammi says, if you have to fight the whole world to support the truth, then fight. My community, Mashallah, is very educated. I don't think they will speak against us. And if anyone speaks against us, then understand that they are not ours. They don't have the correct knowledge of our religion. Whether anyone supports us or not, we will continue to raise our voice against this law that causes suffering to women.
[Music]
Ibadat, it's court time. Our case is first. Hurry up. Thank you, thank you. Allah, are you watching? Everyone is watching. How her tongue moves like a kite, this Ibadat. I'm telling you, Dua, our Mannat is innocent. She must have misled her, otherwise Mannat is such a brilliant child that she would never do such a disgraceful thing in her life, never take such a step. My daughter. Ammi, you are wrong. In today's changing world, women should get their rights, and for this, girls like Mannat and Ibadat must raise their voices. And Ammi, don't forget this, the person who fights for the suffering of others is the one whose own house has burned down. Their own house. I don't understand anything. Yes, Badi Ammi, there is no case of multiple marriages in our house.
[Music]
No, now, I... Hey children, how is there no case? Absolutely. In this house, two marriages have happened. Ammi, the children should also know. This grandmother of yours, Ammi, Gulnaz Begum, is your grandfather's second wife. Have you forgotten? Hey, she set fire to my friend Hina's life. Those two foolish girls have created a storm, and you people are finding it amusing. Don't take this lightly, don't consider it a joke. Ibadat and Mannat have declared war against our community, and I know very well, son, Mannat is innocent. She made this mistake under someone's influence. You know that very well too. God knows when we will get rid of this Ibadat. Ammi, hey, why doesn't she get married and leave? I hate her shadow too. Me too. Ammi, let me get married too. She's not going anywhere. She will stay right here as long as she wishes. And don't talk about marriage at all, Ammi. And as for Mannat, Mannat will first do her MBA and then take over Dua Haider Designs and fulfill her father's dream. And Ibadat will learn the art of jewelry making, create new designs, and take them to Dua's artistry. Right?
[Music]
Dua, before my Mannat is spoiled by Ibadat's company, I have to talk to Kaynat in London. What if this fire of destruction grows so much that you cannot extinguish it, and that fire burns down your own household? What if you are left alone? Assalamu Alaikum, Ammi. Walekum Assalam, Kaynat, my dear, how are you, child? My eyes have been longing to see you.
[Music]
I want to hug you. Come back to India, child. Leave London. Ammi, you ask the same question again and again, and my answer is always the same. I have no desire to come back right now. It's been 22 years since you went to London. Don't you miss this house, don't you miss us? I remember everything, but I also remember the humiliation.
[Music]
You have no right to stay in this house either. Pack your belongings right now and get out of this house. How can I return to that house, Ammi, in which a foolish woman like Dua is present, because of whose stubbornness I was separated from my brother? I consider Dua responsible for Haider Bhai's death, and I will never forgive her.
[Music]
Kaynat, forget what has happened. Think about the future. Think about what is connected to our happiness. What? You forgot the prediction of Peer Baba, son? This child, Subhan, will be a strong link between the Haider Akhtar and Hafiz Siddiqui families. According to my knowledge, Hafiz Sahib's son will marry Haider's daughter. It's time to turn our dream into reality. Your Subhan and our Mannat. Peer Baba said that Subhan would marry Haider Bhai's daughter. But Haider Bhai's daughter is not just Mannat, Ammi. She is also that unfortunate Ibadat. What about her? Don't worry about her. Your Ammi is still alive. Kaynat, you just know Subhan's heart's desire. Once he agrees, then you will see with what grandeur I will conduct the marriage of my Subhan and Mannat. Don't cry, you silly girl. Tell me, how is my Subhan? I miss him day and night. Before the lamp of my eyes is extinguished forever, show me the face of my prince, my grandson, my Subhan.
