Plot Safia abandoned her newborn twin baby girls at the side of the road and attempted to drown herself in a river. Two passers-by, a childless Hindu man named Bhagwan Daas and a Christian club owner known only as Mr Nameless, took the girls away.
Bhagwan Daas and his wife, Lajwanti, adopted one of the girls and raised her as their own daughter. They raised her according to their religion and named her Seeta. When Seeta was nearly eight, her birth mother found her and took her away to be raised according to Islamic teachings. They changed her name to Maryam and emphasised that she had been rescued, causing her to question her identity.
Meanwhile, Margaret, a popular dancer at the Blue Moon Club, was persuaded by Mr Nameless to exploit wealthy patrons who visited her. Margaret is Maryam's twin sister and later falls for Rashid, Maryam's cousin, who also loves her. When Maryam discovers that Margaret is her twin sister, she plans to switch places with her so that Margaret can experience the love she yearns for.
