big haveli of the nawab as the begum of the house. For the England returned
Waseem it was a problem to balance his career with the demands of his married
life. Neelofar starts feeling that she is being taken for granted. During her
long waits in loneliness she continues to search for the home which a woman
looks forward to, after marriage and which has its edifice raised on the
foundation of love. One day a storm comes to this house. The cookings errupted
into a storm one day and the Haweli reverberated with the words– TALAQ TALAQ
TALAQ which Waseem hurled at his loving wife in a scene of pent up emotions.
Soaked in tears of humiliation Neelofar is thrown out on the road to face the
cruel world all by herself. During the rumblings of the clouds Haider appeared
as a flame of the past to light the days and nights of Neelofar. In the other
side Waseem is repenant and remorsefully feels that he had really been unfair to
his wife. He admits his mistake and wants to marry her again. This is possible
only if Neelofar marries another man and gets a willing divorce from the second
husband after consummation of marriage. Well, would Haider be willing to play
that role?
