Salma and Faraz (Shaan) had been in love before the creation of Pakistan and were fiance's. While Faraz lived in Lahore, Salma lived what would become the partitioned India. They previously met each other frequently. The ethnic violence and rioting after the creation of Pakistan was announced led to the displacement and killing at a large scale where. Salma was presumed dead. It had been three years since her presumed death and Faraz's mother encourages him to marry his cousin Afsana (Sana), which he resists but later unwillingly accepts. However Salma returns to Pakistan, upon learning this Faraz hurries to the police station to bring her home. She is lifeless, pale and does not say a word. She is described by Faraz's aunt as a 'living corpse' not saying anything instead feeling powerless and depressed. Faraz feels despondent that the woman he once loved has turned into someone else. She does not speak until a turn of events take place and she is forced to defend herself in court. There Faraz forces her to talk of what happened to her in India and to defend herself. She finally speaks and talks of her experience.
