Introduction

Pehli Barish is a story of love that spans generations, a tale of joy, longing, and heartbreak that seems to repeat itself.

Years ago in Lahore, strangers Behzad and Maleeha met and a spark of love lit between them. But fate had other plans and tore them apart, leaving hearts scarred.

Decades later, Behzad lives a settled life with a family, yet the past never truly leaves him. His son, Maani, falls for Nimra and the shadows of old heartbreak loom large. As Behzad watches history threatening to repeat itself, he must face his own past to protect Maani and perhaps confront the love he lost long ago.

Will Maleeha return to Behzad’s life? Will Behzad save his son from the same heartbreak he experienced? Can Maani and Nimra’s love win against all odds?
