जलती धूप मे हल्की हवा चल गयी

मिला भरोसा यार का जा फिर संभाल गयी

हो ख्वाइश साँस ले, जंजीरे पिघल गयी

सबा उम्मीद को माथे पे यू मल गयी

सुने सहराव मे हसरत पली है

हाय तूफान मे आज ये शम्मा जली है

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

आगे क्या लिखा हमको क्या खबर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

आ आ आ आ आ आ

दिन महक महक गया

रात मचल मचल गयी

चाह ज़रा था अब मगर

नियत बदल बदल गयी

दिन महक महक गया

रात मचल मचल गयी

चाह ज़रा था अब मगर

नियत बदल बदल गयी

हो बेचैन जिंदगी सुकून पाए

हाय दिल की ये आरजू लब तक तो आए

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

आगे क्या लिखा हमको क्या खबर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर आ आ आ आ

ईमान का

जलती धूप मे हल्की हवा चल गयी

मिला भरोसा यार का, जा फिर संभाल गयी

ओ ओ

कैसा साज़ है, तन्हा जा बहल गयी

धीमी सी ताल पर, आशाए मचल गयी

सुने सहराव मे हसरत पली है

हाय तूफान मे आज ये शम्मा जली है

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

शायद है ये दोस्ती, या ईमान का असर

आगे क्या लिखा हमको क्या खबर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर

ईमान का असर (ईमान का असर)

ईमान का असर (ईमान का)

ईमान का असर (असर)

Zeenat (Gul Panag) is an independent Muslim woman living in Himachal Pradesh. She marries Amir Khan, her boyfriend, who leaves for Saudi Arabia for work.

Meera (Ayesha Takia) a simple Rajasthani Hindu woman, has everything in her life in accordance with customs and traditions, including her marriage into a traditional Rajasthani family and her daily chores within the family haveli. Her husband, Shankar, is also in Saudi Arabia for work. Shankar regularly sends his wages home to support his family, which includes his father, Randhir Singh, mother, grandmother, and Meera. When the remittances stop and there is no correspondence from her husband, Meera learns that Shankar was killed in a freak accident allegedly caused by his Muslim roommate and is devastated.

The ceremonies toward rendering Meera into a widow emotionally drain her. Her vivaciousness and exuberance are stifled. The rest of the family vents their frustration of losing their only breadwinner to Meera, blaming her for bringing bad luck to the family.

Zeenat hears that her husband has been arrested for murdering his roommate in Saudi Arabia. Amir is scheduled to be executed. An Indian officer explains to her that Saudi law permits the release of a criminal if the wife of the deceased forgives the guilty. Armed only with a photograph of Shankar and Amir, Zeenat sets out to find Meera. En route, she meets a Behrupiya (Shreya Thelapadia) , who is talented in arts and mimicry. He turns out to be a petty conman when he hoodwinks Zeenat and steals her things. However, when Zeenat falls into trouble, he returns to rescue her with his artistic talent. He is empathetic when Zeenat details her plight and offers to help. After making educated guesses, they reach Jodhpur and identify the Singh haveli. When Zeenat requests the Singh family to pardon Amir's mistake, their anger drives her away.

Feeling that befriending Meera might help her cause, Zeenat approaches her at a temple Meera visits daily. She is too afraid to tell Meera the truth and does not reveal who she is. They become good friends and spend most of their time together. Their friendship brings out the missing part in each of their personalities. Meera gets a glimpse of freedom; this brings her out of the shell of traditions and gives her a new perspective on life.

The Singh family is in debt to Chopra, a local factory owner. When Randhir requests more time to repay it, he is given an offer – pardoning the debt in exchange for Meera. Randhir accepts. When news of the death sentence arrives, Zeenat is compelled to tell the truth to Meera. The fact that her friendship was based on false pretenses hurts Meera, and she refuses to sign the maafinama (statement of forgiveness). She makes it clear that she wants to hurt her husband's murderer, even if it was an accident, because of how much she is hurting in her new, veiled life.

Zeenat is hurt but accepts it as fate and decides to leave. Meera has a change of heart because of her disillusionment at Randhir's willingness to "sell" her to Chopra. She hurries to the railway station, where she gives Zeenat the signed statement of forgiveness. Zeenat extends her hand from the train, and Meera grabs it and climbs aboard, running away from the only life she has ever known.
