Bindiya and her younger sister, Payal live on a farm that their relatives plan to seize. After the death of their parents, the two sisters face many hurdles.

As they grow up, the differences between them also grow.

Bindiya remains in her village while Payal is a college student. Payal is in a relationship with Krish, but Krish's father, Baldev, is looking to get Krish married to someone homely and traditional. Bindiya ends up saving Baldev's life, so Baldev decides that Bindiya will be his daughter-in-law. No one in the Shukla family is happy with the decision as they see Bindiya as illiterate and boorish. They have prejudice against her as she is from a village.

Krish, in anger, decides to cut off ties with his family and leaves the house to be with Payal. Payal, who is after Krish's money, breaks off the relationship so Krish will go back to his house.

Since Krish has assets again, Payal plans to stop the wedding, but she fails. Krish and Bindiya get married. Krish is still in love with Payal, but he doesn't want to cheat Bindiya. Bindiya, unaware of anything, has already fallen in love with Krish.

Payal, devastated that her plan failed, is willing to do anything to break Krish and Bindiya's marriage. No one in the family is aware of Payal and Krish's past, which she takes advatange of to stay in the house as Bindiya's sister and her responsibility.

Eventually, Payal succeeds in becoming Krish's illegal wife. Most of the family prefers her over Bindiya, but Bindiya is not willing to back down without a fight. Thus begins the saga of Bindiya fighting for her right as a "suhaagan." After much turmoil, Krish gives divorce to Bindiya, but the juddge orders them to give their marriage a chance. Within the 6 months she has left, Bindiya has to bring Payal's true face infront of everyone.

Payal, on the other hand, plays vile tricks, such as sleeping with Krish and pretending to be pregnant to defeat Bindiya. After several evil shenanigans of Payal, Bindiya ends up exposing it in front of the whole family and Krish. Payal ends up leaving after seeing Krish's anger, but she finds a new strategy to come back to the Shukla family by pretending to commit suicide in front of Krish. Krish ends up forgiving Payal and accepting that her love for him is real. Later on, Krish insults Bindiya by telling her that she was doing all this to satisfy her carnal desire. In anger, Krish tires to force himself on Bindiya, which causes Bindiya to break their relationship and leave the house.

Bindiya goes back to her village and ends up meeting a businessman, Samay, who happens to be Krish's estranged cousin. Krish begins to feel jealous due to the growing closeness between Samay and Bindiya. Bindiya ends up coming back to the Shukla house with Samay and his mom, Shanti.

Payal reveals how Samay was in chaoots with Baldev and Amma to bring Krish closer to Bindiya. Bindiya feels betrayed and refuses to believe Krish's feelings for her are real.

However, on their honeymoon, Krish pushes Bindiya off a cliff. It turns out everything was plotted by Payal. Payal made a man wear a mask to look like Krish to get Bindiya out of her way. She then made Sakshi pose as Bindiya and got the Shukla family arrested. She also feigned Krish’s medical emergency and need for a kidney transplant and faked giving her own kidney to him. Krish, shocked by Bindiya’s change, decides to marry Payal. On their wedding, Bindiya comes back and is shocked to see Krish marrying Payal. Bindiya vows to find out the truth.

Bindiya enters the house as a maid, but is eventually exposed by Payal.

Birju claims Bindiya as his wife, and Phoolmati lies that Bindiya and Birju got married as children. Birju misuses his power as a police officer to torture the Shukla family. Birju's sister, Babli, sets her sight on Krish and plans to marry him. Birju abducts Krish and tortures him, while Babli tortures Bindiya, so the couple will agree to separate from one another. However, Bindiya and Krish, with the help of everyone in the Shukla family, manage to defeat Birju and his family.

After all the hardships, Bindiya and Krish get a good news: they are going to be parents. However, Krish finds out that Bindiya's pregnancy has complication and urges her to have an abortion. Amidst all this, Bindiya helps Nidhi deliver a baby boy, and after that Bindiya is more determined to bring her child into this world.

Dhwani is ambitious and dreams of becoming rich and doesn’t want to live like her mom, a maid. On the other hand, Swara is down to earth and simple. Indu still hates Swara and insults her, while Baldev is very supportive of his granddaughter.

Swara, Dhwani and Vedant cross paths with each other. Vedant falls in love with Dhwani at first sight, but Dhwani rebuffs him as she believes him to be poor. Swara, however, is smitten with him and is led to believe by Dhwani that Vedant reciprocates her feelings. Rudra, Vedant’s father, is impressed by Swara and wants her to be his daughter-in-law.
