Bashar Momin meeting with salman
Transcription
Series overview
Rudaba is engaged to her father's best friend's son, Buland Bakhtiar, but is unhappy because she thinks she will not like him. Her brother, Adil, is married to Saira, who is a clever and manipulating woman. Saira is the sister of Bashar Momin, a rich money launderer who loves his sisters and wants them to be happy at any cost. He is looking for a suitable match for his little sister, Tayyaba, whose two engagements have been ruined by his bad reputation.
Rudaba's father and future father-in-law die in a street robbing accident. Adil has no way to contact Buland and carries out the burial. Rudaba, left alone, is forced to live with her brother despite her reluctance. In Adil's home, Saira tries to keep Adil apart from Rudaba.
Meanwhile, 90 crore of Bashar's money is threatened which is stored in Adil's account. Adil and Saira go to America to save the money, and Rudaba now has to live in Bashar's house. She must also take care of Pareezay, Adil's daughter. Bashar scolds Rudaba often, but he eventually falls for her.
Buland, worried that his father has not been receiving his calls, returns to Pakistan. He learns that his father has died. He meets Rudaba, who falls in love with him. Buland also turns out to be Tayyaba's college fellow. Bashar, now in love with Rudaba, does not like Buland's and Rudaba's meetings. When Tayyaba mentions that Buland is a good person to Bashar, he, now in love with Rudaba, decides to separate Buland from Rudaba, for Tayyaba. He gets close to Rudaba, who considers him "bhai", to create misunderstanding between them. Buland, feeling sick of Rudaba's closeness to Bashar, ignores Rudaba. Rudaba realizes Bashar's intentions and clears the misunderstandings between her and Buland.
When Bashar knows Buland is meeting Rudaba, he comes out of Rudaba's bathroom unexpectedly to Rudaba in the presence of Buland. Later, when Buland meets Rudaba, he turns off the power supply, and Rudaba accidentally says what she planned to say to Buland. Buland is heartbroken and returns to America. Soon Adil returns and Rudaba returns to his home. Bashar tells Adil that he wants to marry Rudaba.
Saira and Bashar convince Adil, without letting him talk to Rudaba, that Rudaba and Bashar were too involved, manipulating the fact that Buland returned to America because he had no interest in the marriage. Meanwhile, Rudaba emails Buland the truth that Bashar did this so that Tayyaba could marry him. Adil agrees to Rudaba's marriage with Bashar. A day before nikah, Rudaba tells her brother the truth. Back in the office, Adil is unable to refuse nikah in fear of Bashar's power. On nikah's ceremony, Buland returns after reading the email. After nikah, Bashar forces Rudaba to tell Buland that she actually loves Bashar and keeps him as a second option in case Bashar does not marry her. After learning this, Buland marries Tayyaba. After a few months, Tayyaba is pregnant but Rudaba's rukhsaty is being ignored. On Adil's suggestion, Saira talks to Bashar about rukhsaty, who tells her that he will divorce Rudaba because he cannot marry a woman who has been in love with another man.
Adil is infuriated when Bashar announces in a live program that he is single. He argues with Bashar who is determined to divorce Rudaba. Adil threatens that if Bashar divorces Rudaba, he will also divorce Saira. Adil leaves Saira with Bashar and moves into his father's home, saying that he will change his mind only if Bashar marries Rudaba. Buland learns that Rudaba had been forced, and offers Rudaba to divorce Tayyaba after delivery, and they would marry again. Bashar discovers their plan and decides not to divorce Rudaba. He says sorry to Adil and marries Rudaba. Back at home, Buland flies to America, leaving Tayyaba behind. Bashar, who is unsatisfied with the marriage, takes revenge on Rudaba and treats her harshly. When Rudaba learns of the Bashar's past life and the reason behind his attitude and anger she eventually falls in love with him. Meanwhile, Bashar becomes attracted to her innocence and but resists.
On his father's anniversary, Bashar fulfills everyone's wishes. Rudaba also wants to ask him for something, but he refuses to listen because he thinks she will ask for a divorce. She asks him to give her a normal life. He does so, but keeps his distance from her. She tries to tell him that she loves him, but he does not believe her.
Bashar plays piano every night and thinks of his mother, who, in love with her old college mate Zafar, left his father and her four children. While he loves Rudaba for her beauty and innocence, he also thinks of her as his mother. He fears that Rudaba will also leave him for Buland. One day he notices Rudaba seeing her in the piano room and he screams at her. Rudaba falls faint and the doctors announce that she is pregnant. Bashar fears that Rudaba will leave his child as his mother had done, and convinces and threatens her to drink juice which contains drugs that cause an abortion. Rudaba expresses her anger towards him. Feeling guilty, he regrets his decision and starts loving her but is reticent to express his love.
Due to corruption, a raid is carried out on his house, but Bashar flees just in time. Meanwhile, Rudaba, who is angry at Bashar, stays at home. In a TV conference, Tayyaba says that Bashar is corrupt and causes trouble for her. In contrast, Rudaba says that she loves her husband and does not believe in Buland's rallies that she has been forced to marry him rather than marrying for love. Bashar's unexpressed love for Rudaba is strengthened and he surrenders. For political reasons and his influential power he is spared punishment. He returns home to express his love to her and starts a new life with her. Tayyaba's son is born and Buland comes to live with her, after which Bashar tells him of his relationship with Rudaba, apologies to him and advises him to live happily with what he has.
Bashar takes Rudaba to his father's grave and decides to be a good person and leave behind all of his illegal business and start a new life with her. He leaves his ring with the BM stamp on the grave and they live their life happily.
