Kulsoom ( Noor) is engaged to Sarwar Shah (Babar Butt), but she is deeply in love with Zill-e-Shah ( Shan), whom she knows from childhood. So Kulsoom's marriage is sealed, but in an encounter Zill-e-Shah kills Sarwar, therefore he is sent to jail for his murder.
Then an unfortunate incident occurs, when Kulsoom marries Abid Shah ( Shafqat Cheema), the elder brother of Sarwar. Noor is in discomfort, but so is Zill-e-Shah, as he gives up his life of luxury, and goes in the realm of dancing girls and becomes an alcoholic.

Made on a budget of around two crore rupees, [1] Zill-e-Shah attracted much popular attention because of its print ads but also due to its promotional videos that ran on the various local TV channels. [1]
The producer said: "The entire post-production work of Zill e Shah was done in Mumbai's famous Adlabs. It happens to be one of the world's most expensive production houses. Whoever had a chance to watch the rushes simply loved the film. I was hoping for a grand premiere in India, but I don't know if that will be possible now, given the current political situation between the two countries." [1]
