Shahjada Ijjat Beg comes to India with his caravan and settles in a town in
Gujrat. Here he falls in love with Sohani, who keeps a shop in metal pots. Ijjat
Beg buys pot from her with whatever money he had and they were attracted to each
other. Sohni dispensed with her servant and kept Ijjat Beg instead. This gave
them more opportunity to meet. This was a scandal in the town and Sohni was
perforce married to Rehaman who was slightly off his head. Sohni continued her
meeting Ijjat Beg who went out fishing. When the atmosphere became to hot for
them they jointly took a water grave for their love.
