Ulfat (Sonya Hussyn) belongs to a middle-class family and dreams of becoming rich. She meets Shafaq (Mansha Pasha) who is a rich businesswoman and, in order for Ulfat to succeed in her dreams, she chooses to risk her marital life, causing many problems for her.
In November 2018, it has been revealed that Barkat Siddiqui is working on a project called Aye Dil Zara Sambhal.[3] The title of the show was later changed to Mohabbat Tujhe Alvida. Zahid Ahmed was cast in the lead role.[4] He is playing the role of Shahaan, an average middle-class man who is working hard for creating comfort in the lives of his wife Ulfat (played by Sonya Hussain) and children. Mansha Pasha is playing the character of Shafaq, a rich and glamorous girl.[4] The role was initially offered to Armeena Khan but due to unknown reason probably date clashes, she was replaced by Pasha.[3] It is Mansha Pasha and Zahid Ahmed's second on-screen appearance together after Tau Dil Ka Kiya Hua while Zahid also second time collaborating with Sonya Hussain after Ishq Zahe Naseeb.[5]
After the release of first and second teaser, the show was heavily criticised for its typical melodramatic story.[6][7] The viewers also called it a copy of Indian film Judaai[7] to which Pasha clarified and responded back that "the show may be inspired but we have our own folktales", hinted the show is based on Lilan Chanesar by showing the details of the article.[2]
