Kamli is a story centered around the protagonist Hina (Saba Qamar), a girl who has been awaiting her husband’s return for eight years. The story follows her meandering path, as her life unfolds through a series of unusual events when she encounters Amaltas (Hamza Khawaja). Hina lives alone with her blind sister-in-law, Sakina (Sania Saeed), who has a dominating presence in her life. Hina’s routine remains limited, but a key aspect of her day is walking to a mansion to work as a model for an artist, Zeenat (Nimrah Bucha), who is working on a series of paintings with Hina as her central muse. Zeenat’s strained marital life forms the background to the story. Zeenat senses the sadness in Hina, which is also noticed by her husband, Malik Sahab (Omair Rana).
