Synopsis

The general theme and focus of the series is the importance of keeping faith in a higher power, a soulful romance, and being careful about what you wish for.

The plot centres around Mashal, an orphan who lives with her grandmother, also known as Apa Ji. Mashal's parents died in a car accident when she was 5 years old. She is mistreated by her aunts, Tayi Ammi, Fasiha and Shama Cachi, and her cousins, Bisma and Areesha but her uncles and 2 of her cousins Hashir and Arman are always kind with her. Her cousin Burhan is always harassing her.

Controversy

The serial was earlier titled Kun Faya Kun. However, due to controversies and objections from a religious group (Kun Faya Kun is not only the attribute of Allah Almighty but also a Quranic verse), the program's producers rebranded it to Jo Tu Chahey.[7]

After re-branding, it faced a drastic boost in its viewership.
