Sanjha is a poor girl from the Thar Desert in the Sindh province of Pakistan. Bakshu, the husband of Sanjha's sister Sarah, sells Sanjha to brothel owner Mumtaz, and tells Sarah, that he has sent Sanjha away to the city to earn a living. At first, Sanjha believes she has been hired as a maid. At the brothel, Sanjha is renamed Reshmi and meets Waheed, "Weeda" Murad, who lives at the brothel with his mother and brother and has a passion for art.

Sarah asks Shabana and her son, Dr. Ammar, for assistance finding Sanjha. Mumtaz allows Shabana, who is writing a book on courtesans, to visit the brothel on the condition that she will not take photos or ask the women about their lives before the brothel. Meanwhile, Weeda and Sanjha begin to fall in love.

Mooda, a human trafficker, wants to sell Sanjha, but Mumtaz opposes the plan. Mooda sends his men to take Sanjha, but they take another prostitute, Rosie, instead. Mooda brutally murders Rosie.

Mumtaz holds an event at which Sanjha performs. Impressed by her dancing and innocence, Seth Sugarwala decides that he wants to purchase Sanjha. Ammar had planned to raid the event but was betrayed by Weeda, who informed Mumtaz of the plan in a fit of jealousy. Ammar and Weeda argue because they are both in love with Sanjha, but Murad forgives Ammar because Ammar had helped his mother when she was sick. Weeda threatens to kill Mumtaz if she doesn't release Sanjha, so Mumtaz sells Sanjha to Sugarwala.
