She promises that she will be the best.

Kunal’s aunt Pammi, who practically raised him decides that she wants to live with him along with her son, Bobby, a viral social media influencer who is kind-hearted, and her husband. Kunal moves in next door to Vandana’s house. Vandana gets assaulted by a future employer and runs out of the room crying. Kunal sees her crying as he has a meeting with the employer for him to invest in this music label. He asks the man why Vandana was crying and he says that Vandana forced herself onto him. Kunal, knowing that Vandana’s most important quality is her dignity and self-respect, causes him to beat up the man and cancel the deal. He leaves and finds Vandana, who falls unconscious. He carries her to her house and at the house are Vaibhav and his family. Vaibhav gets mad at Kunal and Kunal reveals that he saw Vaibhav at a cafe with another woman, which goes unnoticed by everyone else.

Vandana and her family get invited to a party hosted by the Malhotras and Kunal’s father, Kuldeep, doesn’t like the Karmarkars. He and Pammi decide to get rid of Vandana and her family. Pammi insults Vandana’s aunt and Vandana grabs Kuldeep by the collar. Kunal sees this and fights with Vandana. He decides to make Vandana and her family’s life a living hell. He buys their house and kicks them out. He agrees to let her family stay there only if she becomes his assistant. Mrunal and Vaibhav start an affair. Kunal finds this out and wants to tell Vandana but can’t find any opportunities to. Anagha and Hemant find out but decide not to tell her as she is the lone supporter for her dad not to sell the house. Hemant is in debt and if they can sell the house, they will have enough money to pay off the debt. Her aunt finds out but doesn’t want her to find out so she begs Vaibhav not to continue the affair. He promises her but continues to do so.

Kunal overhears Mrunal and Vaibhav talking about how they plan to get married the next day, the supposed day of Vandana and Vaibhav’s marriage. Kunal brings Vandana to the temple where Mrunal and Vaibhav are getting married but they’re not there. Vaibhav and Vandana get married and Vandana asks Kunal not to get involved in her life. As a tradition, Vandana’s family goes to Vaibhav’s house. Vandana faints and it turns out she can’t be a mother. She walks out of her house in a daze and meets Kunal and Bobby on the road. Kunal, Bobby, and Vandana go to work together and Vandana sees a little girl named Tara on the road. She almost gets hit by a car but Kunal and Vandana save the girl. Tara and Vandana bond.

Later that day, Soniya and Indraneel, Kunal’s wife and his former best friend, show up and declare that Soniya wants a divorce from Kunal to marry Indraneel and wishes that Tara live with Kunal. Kunal refuses to accept Tara and Vandana takes care of her. Kunal can’t bear to be a father and brings the child back to Soniya’s house. Tara runs away from home and gets kidnapped and Kunal and Vandana save her. Kunal decides that Soniya isn’t responsible and decides to take care of Tara himself. Kunal accepts Tara and Soniya and Kunal gets a divorce.

Vandana finds out about the affair and divorces Vaibhav and kicks Mrunal out of the house. Soniya accuses Kunal and Vandana of having an affair and blames it on Vaibhav and Mrunal. Kunal and Vandana get into a fight and he forbids her to meet Tara. Later, Tara gets an allergic reaction to peanut butter. Kunal is drunk because of the sadness of the divorce so he cannot take care of her. Vandana finds her and takes her to the hospital. Kunal realizes Vandana will be a good fit for Tara as a mother. Vandana and Kunal decide to get married. Vaibhav and Anagha attempt to kill Vijay to get the property.

Vandana finds out and has the police arrest Vaibhav. Anagha doesn’t get exposed. Vijay refuses to accept Kunal as a son-in-law and states that if Vandana were to get married to him, he would disown her. Mrunal, mad about Vaibhav being in jail, makes a deal with Soniya. Soniya will pay Vaibhav’s bail in exchange for Mrunal morphing nude photos of Vandana. Vandana gets harassed in public but Kunal protects her and figures out Mrunal and Soniya leaked the fake photos.
