Junooniyat novel story has similarities to other works by Areej Shah. It follows a family that settles in a remote area, and as more families move in, the area gradually turns into a village. Like other villages, the community lacks resources and education and holds onto old traditions like Wani (where a family member is forced to marry the daughter or sister of a person who killed one of their own) and Kari (where a boy and girl who marry against their families’ wishes are killed).
The story centers on this family’s life in the village and how a rivalry begins after they organize a horse race. When one family member kills the race’s winner from the other family, hatred between the families grows. Tensions rise further when a boy and girl from opposing families fall in love. Knowing their families would never allow them to marry, they try to escape but are caught; the boy is killed on the spot, and the girl’s fate is left in suspense.
This story reveals many social issues of traditional society and the lingering mindsets that still affect people today.
