A romantic thriller that uses the central love story as a vehicle for exploring betrayal, patriotism, and impossible moral choices in the shadow of Kashmir's political conflict.

Zooni Ali Beg is a blind Kashmiri girl who travels without her parents for the first time with a dance troupe to Delhi to perform in a ceremony for independence day. On her journey, she meets Rehan Khan, a casanova and tour guide who flirts with her. Although her friends warn Zooni about him, she cannot resist falling in love with him and he takes her on a private tour of New Delhi.
