Plot
For business reasons, Reeti is promised to Vibhor, five years her junior and the youngest of the Poddar sons. Reeti, who is well-educated, projects a progressive mindset towards life. The show engages the viewer in the question of whether or not Reeti will be able to strike a balance and secure a place for herself in the Poddar family, and in Vibhor's heart, given the uneasy circumstances under which they get married. The setting of the story is a traditional Marwari family, with most of the themes presenting fundamental relationships and togetherness.
On a business trip, the Poddar men, including Vibhor, get into a fatal accident and die leaving their wives to mourn their deaths.
The politically powerful Kadambari Mehta vows to destroy the Poddar family and succeeds. She tricks Reeti into marrying her son Moksh Mehta who is mentally challenged. Reeti is mistreated by the Mehtas but strikes a friendly relationship with Moksh. She discovers hidden secrets in the Mehta family and exposes Moksh's sister, Siddhi, as the culprit. It is revealed that Siddhi was siphoning off funds from a family-run NGO and when her father threatened to report her to the police, she killed him and buried his body. However, this is witnessed by Moksh who then has an accident and loses his memory. Siddhi starts giving Moksh the wrong medicines so he would remain mentally challenged. Though at first Reeti thinks Kadambari may have killed her husband, she eventually exposes Siddhi who is sent to prison. Kadambari apologizes for her past actions and accepts Reeti as her daughter-in-law.
Under the right care, Moksh slowly recovers and starts going to the office as he and his family live happily.
