Plot summary
A gullible, young Punjabi woman (Pinky) from a small village in Pakistan, is brought to work as a maid for the glamorous Dubai socialite ( Mehr) and her affluent investment banker husband ( Hassan). Burdened by her pre conceived notions and lack of exposure, Pinky initially struggles but as time passes, she begins to enjoy her new life, makes unusual friends and becomes increasingly fascinated with the privileged yet unhappy Mehr.
The story takes a turn when Mehr, who is secretly an aspiring writer decides to play puppet master to her adoring disciple and takes Pinky under her wings to bring about an astonishing transformation...Things go a bit too far and one fateful evening, the lives of both women along with others around them is thrown into a series of uncontrollable events that threaten to destroy them from within.
The film twists and turns through a cross section of characters and locations; from the seductive and glamorous lives of Jumeirah, to the ugly and harsh realities of Bur Dubai's struggling working class; to the lush green hills of Islamabad and the wisdom of returning home to heal, as the mistress and her muse face their inner demons and realize who they truly are.
