Kahani Raima Aur Manahil Ki (transl."Story of Raima and Manahil") is a Pakistani television series premiered on Hum TV on 25 February 2014. It stars Sajal Aly, Mehreen Raheel, Vasay Chaudhry, and Shahroz Sabzwari as its main characters. The series follows the story of two couples where the first couple hates each other while the second couple loves each other.[1]

Plot

The story revolves around two couples. The first couple is Wamaj and Raima, who have been married for eight years, and although they hate each other, they cannot divorce due to the wills left by their fathers. The second couple is Abrar and Manahil, who love each other but cannot marry due to financial problems. Abrar works at Raima's boutique, while Manahil is Wamaj's secretary[2]

Episodes 1–5

Manahil and Abrar want to marry each other as soon as possible, but they cannot, as Abrar's elder sister Seher is not yet married. She wants to find a husband as she is passing a suitable age for marriage. Manahil tries to match Seher with an old shopkeeper (Rasheed) but fails, as Abrar sees the shopkeeper and Seher together. Manahil and Seher become good friends, which results in Manahil advising Seher so she can get married soon.

Raima and Wamaj have been married for eight years but hate each other. They cannot divorce each other because the one who files for divorce will not be part of the will signed by their parents. They unsuccessfully try to use black magic to get a divorce.

Episodes 6–8

A marriage proposal comes for Seher, and she accepts. Raima and Wamaj continue to try to make the other file for divorce by faking interest in another person. While Raima takes her friend Numra's husband for lunch, Wamaj starts flirting with a woman who ends up robbing him. When Numra sees her husband having dinner with Raima, she gets angry since she is unaware that Raima only pretends to be interested in her husband. Numra advises Raima to date another guy from her boutique, while Wamaj's friend tells him to date someone from his office. Raima tries to date Abrar and tells him she only wants to be divorced, which he refuses, while Wamaj asks Manahil to be his date, who angrily rejects the invitation.

Manahil unsuccessfully asks her mother if she is allowed to marry Abrar. Her mother tells her that she will only let her marry him four years later when her sibling is mature enough to earn. Manahil and Abrar are depressed and have no choice but to accept their bosses.

Abrar tells Manahil he will work for Raima to get more money for Seher's wedding. Manahil tells him that if she works for Wamaj, she can get more money to finance their marriage.

Episode 9–12

Raima and Wamaj plan to make each other jealous: Wamaj invites Manahil to his house, and Raima spends a day with Abrar.

Abrar's mother, Zainab, wants him to marry someone. She invites people to bring a marriage proposal, who are all rejected by Abrar. Manahil goes to Wamaj's house and tries to make Raima jealous by showing her that she cares a lot for Wamaj, but she can't fool Raima. Wamaj feels the same when Raima receives flowers and goes out with Abrar.

Seher's husband sees Abrar with Raima and tells her about his affair, Seher asks Abrar about this, and he says that he treats Raima as his sister. Manahil's mother, Asiya, is suspicious of her daughter and spies on her. She sees Manahil with Wamaj and thinks that both are having a love affair. She takes her home and tells her that she should marry Wamaj. When Wamaj takes a fake marriage proposal to her house and lies to Asiya that he is around eighty years and was married to a woman before, Asiya rejects this proposal.

After looking at Raima's wealth, Seher tells Zainab about her, and they can be rich through her. Zainab then invites Raima to her house, and Seher and Zainab treat Raima like a family member, which annoys Raima.

Episode 13–17

Seher wants Raima to marry her brother-in-law Khudbudeen, whom Raima hates, though she cannot do anything. Asiya wants Manahil to marry Wahaj, and Raima tells her she is fine with the marriage. Zainab thinks that Asiya is interested in Wamaj.

Raima thinks that Abrar is useless and making him work with her is a waste of time, and she tells Abrar to quit. Wamaj feels the same for Manahil and tells her to leave the job.

Asiya does not tell her daughter to marry Wamaj, and Manahil and Abrar lose their jobs. Khudbudeen tells Seher and Zainab that Abrar has married Raima.

Raima and Wamaj later receive an invitation to their uncle's daughter's marriage, and when they return, Raima is shot. Wamaj takes care of her in the hospital, and Raima falls in love with him.

Seher and Zainab forgive Abrar as they believe he is telling the truth. Manahil finally confesses to Asiya that she was not in love with Wamaj and was only working for him. Seher's husband starts blaming her, saying that her brother is a spoiled boy and refuses to talk to her.

Manahil and Abrar are not talking to each other, while Raima and Wamaj have fallen deeply in love. Raima's friend, Numra, tells her that Wamaj is acting like a good man but only wants her to divorce him. Wamaj's friend tells him something similar. Raima asks Abrar to work for Wamaj as he brought her and Wamaj close and tells him that Manahil is a fraud and only loves his money, Wamaj tells Manahil the same thing, but both refuse.

Episode 18

Because of their jobs, Manahil and Abrar are not talking with each other. After asking Abrar for help, Raima orders Abrar to tell Wamaj that Manahil has a bad reputation. Wamaj concocts the same plan, which Manahil agrees to carry out.

Manahil and Abrar see each other at the park and become depressed.

At Manahil's house, Seher and Zainab discuss Manahil and Abrar's marriage proposal. Both families agree to it. Asiya tells her the news but refuses when she finds out her intended spouse is Abrar.

When Manahil and Abrar meet, they get into an argument.

The next morning Raima goes to Manahil's home and humiliates her while standing at the front gate. Manahil tries to tell her the truth, but Raima refuses to listen. After the two bicker, Raima leaves. The next day, Wamaj pays a gang some money to beat Abrar but not badly. After being attacked, Abrar tells the whole story to Zainab and Seher and tells them that Manahil is responsible. Meanwhile, Manahil tells Asiya about how Abrar is in love with Raima. Asiya gets very angry and starts hating Abrar.

The next day, Manahil and Abrar's families shout at and fight each other. Wamaj talks to his lawyer to arrange divorce papers. Two months later, Raima tells Numra that she loves Wamaj madly but will only be happy when he is. She thinks this can only happen by him marrying Manahil.

Manahil goes home and asks her mom Asiya to consult a priest before their marriage.
