Plot

Shantanu Suryavanshi, a guy with old-fashioned ideas, believes women shouldn't be independent. This belief stems from his past when his mom left him when he was little. Instead, he was raised by his not-so-nice aunt, Suparna, who really doesn't like Shantanu's mom.

On the other side of the story is Pallavi Shirsekar, a determined and strong-willed girl from a middle-class family. Her dad, Bhaskar, used to be a businessman, but things went south, and he faced bankruptcy. Despite these hardships, Pallavi has big dreams of making a mark in society and thinks women should be independent.

Now, Pallavi's family wants her to get married, especially since her sister Nandita had a tough time with a cruel husband named Gaurav, who was eyeing the family's wealth. Pallavi, not interested in marriage, escapes from her own engagement ceremony and seeks refuge at her teacher Aditi's house.

Here's the twist: Aditi is none other than Shantanu's long-lost mom, who deeply regrets leaving him. She wants to reconcile with Shantanu, but he's engaged to Niharika, a beautiful and wealthy girl. However, Niharika is not ready for marriage; she heads off to the US to pursue higher studies, leaving Shantanu in a bit of a dilemma.

Pallavi with the help of Aditi happens to join the college which belongs to suryavanshis(Aditis in laws). In the beginning Shantanu and Pallavi have a lot of fights but a series of events later they fall in love with each other and get married.

Soon Aditi re-enters the Suryavanshi house to try to reunite with her son. But Shantanus Mothi Aai doesn't want it and plots to Kill Aditi in which her son Vinayak helps her. Due to the bullet Aditi goes in Coma. Pallavi then finds the culprits and decides to punish them. Vinayak then decides to get his parents out of the way to gain the property but is caught red handed and killed by his wife. Shantanu accepts Aditi as his mother. Finally Pallavi is shown to be pregnant and the serial ends on a happy note.
