"Qayamat is a story of a young and beautiful girl whose life decisions are dominated by those around her. Eventually, all hell breaks loose when the people closest to her repeatedly make the same mistake making her future bleak.
Ifrah along with her parents and elder sister Samra belongs to the lower middle class and believes in hard work and honesty. Samrah is in love with her friend's brother Saad. Their marriage has also been fixed. But, on informing their wealthy uncle Mukhtar, he asks them to break off that marriage and to give Samrah hand for his son Rashid (no one is willing to marry Rashid as he not only failed in eighth grade, he doesn't have a great reputation). Ifrah and Samrah's parent first refuse Mukhtar, but he threatens them and tells them that he will take back their house and their shop (it is all in his name). On hearing this, Samrah, though reluctant, agrees to the wedding, willing to sacrifice her happiness for her family.
Meanwhile, Rashid's brother Jawad, comes back from Canada. He and Ifrah fall in love with each other, and their marriage is also fixed.
After their marriage, Samrah faces mistreatment from Rashid, and his mother Nargis (Nargis wanted a richer daughter-in-law). She gets pregnant, but their treatment towards her don't improve. One day, when Rashid and Samrah argue over his mistress Pari, he pushes her and she falls. She is rushed to the hospital, where she dies, after giving birth to their daughter, who is named Sana. While all this is happening, Rashid is spending time with his mistress Pari, whom he accidentally shoots while fighting over her with her other boyfriend.
Rashid's family decides to get him married to Ifrah. Ifrah disagrees. Jawad sees that his niece needs a mother and begs her to marry his brother. Jawad sacrifices his love and eventually, Ifrah agrees. Ifrah's parents repeat their mistake of marrying off their daughter to Rashid, who is known to have subjected their eldest daughter to frequent domestic abuse. Knowing the main culprit behind her sister's demise, Ifrah decides that if she's destined to marry Samra's abuser, then there must be vengeance.[4]
