Kahin Deep Jaley (Urdu: کہیں دیپ جلے, lit. 'Somewhere a lamp is lit') is a 2019 Pakistani television series produced by Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi under their production banner 7th Sky Entertainment. It features Neelam Muneer and Imran Ashraf. From 3 October 2019, it aired every Thursday night on Geo Entertainment, ending on 14 May 2020.

Rida is a young girl who is raised with three brothers: Faham is the eldest and raised his younger siblings after his father's death; Hatim, the second oldest, is also responsible, but he thinks more with his heart than his head and lives in America; and Asim is the youngest brother who loves to tease his sister. Shamila is Faham's wife who dislikes Rida and gets jealous of her as her brother does not love her as much as Rida's brothers do.

Zeeshan's dad dies in an accident and a greedy business partner snatches everything from him. His uncle then gives him a job working with Hatim and a house. Zeeshan is invited to Faham's wedding where he stops Rida's scarf from burning and falls in love with her. Tauqeer is a young man who has an unrequited love for Rida. One day, Tauqueer gives Rida a love letter, which the maid places inside a book in the study. Zeeshan's mother asks for Rida's hand in marriage, but Rida's brothers refuse because they want Rida to complete her education first. However, Rida's mother says yes, as she is worried that Shamila will make Rida's life hard and believes it is best if Rida gets married as soon as possible. She, however, does not express these concerns to her sons worried it will cause friction between Faham and Shamila.

Zeeshan becomes possessive around Rida, and on the second day of the wedding, Shamila asks Rida at the breakfast table whether she loves Zeeshan or her brothers more. Zeeshan expects her to take his name, but he is offended when Rida takes nobody's name. Zeeshan gets typhoid fever and learns that he can never become a father, which causes him to become more insecure because Rida's brothers are richer than him, something Shamila constantly mentions. Zeeshan tells Rida to return her dowry, which she unwillingly does, her brothers get hurt and Shamila sends a recording of their conversations to Zeeshan, who gets even more possessive about Rida. Shamila goes to Rida's house and sees Rida in a poor state and comments that Zeeshan needed a maid, not a wife. Zeeshan overhears this and confronts Shamila. Zeeshan and Rida go to Murree but return as Zeeshan's mother breaks her foot.

Rida remembers that Zeeshan has to collect his medical report and asks Zeeshan if he received it. Zeeshan panics and he scolds Rida for mentioning it. Faham sends a maid to Rida's home after Shamila comments that Rida is forced to do all the housework by herself. Zeeshan again scolds Rida and tells the maid that they do not need her. Rida finally gets angry and says that she is tired of his self-respect and vanity and that she feels suffocated around him and that she will leave him. He apologizes to Rida, though Zeeshan starts to get grumpy and ill-tempered with Rida again.

Rida goes to her mother's house after an anxious phone call with her mother. Zeeshan gets angry after finding out Rida has left his mother on her own and goes to her house to bring her back. While wandering around the study he finds Tauqeer's letter. Zeeshan falls into a state of complete shock and believes Rida has a secret lover. He drives home without Rida. Rida arrives home wondering why Zeeshan left without her. When she comes face to face with Zeeshan he starts shouting all sorts at her and throws her and the maid out of the house without explaining what has made him so angry. Rida and the maid return to the brothers' home while the maid explains what has happened.

On the way to Zeeshan's home, Faham is murdered by Rida's stalker^[clarify], who escaped from jail. At Faham's funeral, Shamila blames Rida for Faham's death, saying Rida's lover killed Faham. Her brothers get angry at Shamila for accusing Rida. Zeeshan overhears the whole conversation and joins in. He shows the brothers Tauqueer's letter and breaks down crying over Rida's betrayal. Rida begs Zeeshan to believe she's innocent but Zeeshan announced their marriage is over. Rida screams and shouts at her brothers to stop Zeeshan but they both look at her in disgust before leaving. Before moving back to her maternal home Shamila continues to poison both brothers against Rida by constantly reminding them she's responsible for Faham's death.

Both brothers make it clear that they find Rida to be a burden, their brother's murderer, and that they are only tolerating her for their mother's sake. Tauqueer finds out his letter is the cause for Rida's marriage being wrecked and tries his hardest to fix it; his sister speaks to Zeeshan, explaining Rida's innocence but Zeeshan remains adamant to believe Rida was unfaithful. Rida learns she is pregnant and believes the baby will be a chance for her and Zeeshan to reunite.
