Meray Khwab Raiza Raiza is the story of an extremely beautiful, well brought-up, but poor girl, Zainab Shah, whose beauty makes her the centre of attraction wherever she goes. Zainab has two friends: Fariha, who belongs to a rich family and who keeps telling her that she is meant to marry a rich man; and Amina, a contented girl who is always trying to show Zainab the reality. Fariha marries her rich cousin Faisal and moves to London. Zainab starts dreaming of a similar marriage but fate brings into her life Ahsan Ayaz, who loves her but who is not rich.
