The story of encircles a hardworking and diligent filmmaker named Momin, who is shown to be tangled between his spirituality and the glamourous life that he leads.
The novel comes packed full of sentiments and love which surrounds family values and depicts the love of a dervish in the novel.

There is a whole lot of gory history behind the creation of Pakistan. This is the only country in the World which was founded on the basis of an Ideology. It was created as the last resort of survival for Muslims of subcontinent. It is also the sole country whose population is dangerously indifferent towards it and lacks the ownership required of their homeland. 15 August/Muthi bhar mitti is a bitter portrayal of this general apathy. This emotionally sublime story narrates the life of a family who sacrificed their honor, property and lives for the sake of a separate homeland. They abandoned everything, migrated to Pakistan and rebuilt their shattered lives starting from scratch. While there is a gradual paradigm shift in the thought process of the next generation regarding the loyalty and ownership, we still find a few patriots sacrificing their lives for their beloved motherland. 15 August introduces us to moments that are bone chilling and force us to reflect on our shortcomings and selfishness as citizens. Focusing on the 2 nation theory, it tries to wake us from our immoral slumber and realize the true value of our country.

Belonging to the early era of Umera Ahmed’s stories, it puts forth a strong message, that compliance and surrender cannot save you in a hostile environment. One has to fight for his basic rights in order to survive. Tapping the most delicate emotions of the reader, ‘Yeh Jo Ik subh ka sitara hey’ was quite well liked.
