Where Subok(Ashir Wajahat) has remained a constant support for his family, he eventually broke down after finding the affirmation he needed. Living under his father’s shadow, he has grown into a man drowning in self-loathing, finding himself incapable of the girl he truly admires. Further forced by his circumstances, he pushes Daneen(Areeqa Haq) away as he suggests unwanted marriage proposals for her. The self-worth that Jami (Emmad Irfani) was to teach was filled in by a few words from Daneen’s father. A little pat on the back has left the young man in tears; there is hope of a happy future for him.
In a heart-wrenching sequence, Subok tells that his two-bedroom apartment with a tiny kitchen and sewage problems is not for Daneen, a girl used to luxuries. However, he is met with a rightful rebuttal that, with hard work and dedication, his fate may change as well. Where there are many well-to-do ready to marry Daneen, her and her family’s eyes are set on the righteous Subok.

The gut-wrenching scene of Subok’s breakdown has taken the internet by storm as Subok lets go of his composed self with emotions overwhelming him.
Admiring how Subok got the validation he needed from his father, a user stated:
Subuk finally getting validation from a father figure 🥺👌
Jami always cursed Subuk & he had to take up the role of a father for his sisters but now finally he got understanding & genuine words of appreciation from a father figure ❤️#Kafeel https://t.co/gD0hB2ym2H
