Baazar-E-Husn... HEERA MANDI

In Rajasthan, there lived a royal family. King was happy to be blessed with a baby girl. However, in a short span of time, the queen passed away after a year.

King had to remarry for his new born daughter. The new queen was kind and she loved children so she bonded with the princess quickly. The new queen as step mother just started to be a part of this family however, her evil brother who saw the wealth of this king is now tempted to get everything on his name so, he forced his sister to get herself added to the will.

The new queen have denied her brother's proposition and asked him to stay out. The evil brother had a filthy plan and he attempted to kill the king many times but in vain due to his sister who is now a step-mother had bonded to this family that she tries to protect. The brother found a weakness of her past so he blackmailed her to hush.

All of sudden the King fell ill after a long surviving disease. His condition is worsening everyday. The new queen's brother is relieved to hear this news although he had nothing to do with this. The brother was so cruel that he hatched a plan to kill the princess so according to the royal protocol, everything will be named to the new queen, to his sister and later to him. The new queen had sense the forthcoming so, she arranged a safety plan for her step-daughter. Even while in his last days, the King had decided to make it official so he announced his heir to this legacy- his daughter as his successor. King have declared everything to his daughter in his will.

The new queen was helpless but she is hoping after this official announcement the princess will have some security but she knew her brother too. After she learned what was planned by her brother through an internal source, the new queen asked the hand maiden who was a loyal servant to this family for generations and she loved the princess like her own daughter, to flee her away to a far place which is safe. Perhaps after few years the new queen could manage to call her back.

The servant lady took the princess around mid night and hopped on a train to Sindh, crossing the borders of India to the land of Pakistan. Although in that era Pakistan was not formed and it was still under the territories of India. The servant lady did not know that she was on a wrong train. It was crowded and somehow the princess got lost in this dense crowded train and stepped out in an unknown train station. As it was mid-night this 8 years old princess did not realize what place is this while she reached to the walled City of Lahore.

It was around mid-night when the princess was walking in an empty platform of a train station looking for the servant lady. She is now feeling a sudden scary chill and that she is lost. Suddenly a strange drunk man sees her. He tries to chase this little girl but she ran away from this ugly guy. Within no time, the world turned darker and is getting more darker for this little princess as she tries to run fast, to unknown alleys and smoke in the air. She tries to hide as she is now tired and try to breathe. It was mid-night but there was music around, the strange smoke in the air and the noise from somewhere, people around, like some market.

This little girl is scared but after days of starvation and now that she is tired, she looks for help, knowing those ladies will help her she enters into a building with shiny lights and music. Princess was about to ask for a glass of water and something to eat to this lady but she fell down as she was too weak. This was the first time when a princess entered into a brothel.

Zohra Bibi aka Zoha Bai was this lady who looked at this little girl, beautiful flesh like a budding rose. She was very impressed by her light skin and brown shiny silky hair, just like some princess or angel fell from the sky. She took her sticky and removed that strand of hair from her face to see her, in no time, Zohra Bai knew that she have found a rare diamond. To this lady this little girl was a new flesh to her market but unaware of where she landed, this princess is going to be stuck here for a very long time just like other girls brought up here. Everyday they hope for two things- either to be saved and get out of this hellhole or to die as quick as possible.
