On the birth of Vaishnavi, her father is called by the Tridevis in the heavens. The Tridevis tell Vaishnavi's father that Vaishnavi is not an ordinary human and her life has a goal which she has to complete. They tell him that when Vaishnavi is aware of her powers you have to let her take her own decisions and you won't interfere in any way. Vaishnavi's father agrees but when her mother Queen Samriddhi finds about the promise her husband made to the Tridevis, afraid of losing her only daughter she decides to keep her away from the Lord Vishnu temple in their palace. But eventually Vaishnavi sees the Vishnu temple and she realizes her powers. The shows follow a series of incidents where Vaishnavi helps the people in her kingdom.

. This is locally known as a Jagrata. During the puja, Bharti sees a vision in which Vaishnavi is seen taking the form of the Navadurgas. She goes on defeating many demons but with no violence because this is her goal that she has to finish the evil in humans not the humans. Later, the Tridevis give different type of knowledge to Vaishnavi and revokes her inner powers. Later she goes on a meditation for several years in order to fully transform into Goddess Vaishno Devi. Years later, Vaishnavi has grown up and she sets out to help her devotees. Bhairon Nath, a tantrik, is asked by his guru (his guru is a nice man) to find a divine energy he saw through his powers. Bhairon Nath sets out to find the energy but since he is very evil and looking for the energy who is none other than Vaishno Devi. He is unable to find her. When he finally does, he develops some feelings for her which are wrong and Vaishnavi assumes her real form as Vaishno Devi and warns him about the same but he does not listen at last Vaisno Devi beheads him. Lord Shiva sets out to end the world as Vaishno Devi killed Bhairon Nath and as the Trimurtis and the Tridevis had a deal that if Vaishno Devi kills anyone, Lord Shiva will end the world. But Vaishno Devi explains to Lord Shiva that she didn't kill Bhairon Nath but gave him salvation (Mukti) and the reason behind beheading him was his head's arrogance and anger. Lord Shiva calms down and returns to his abode. After this starts the journey of Vaishno Devi and her devotees and how she helps her devotees. The show revolves around her evolving journey from being Vaishnavi, The Princess Of Sripuram, to Goddess Vaishno Devi, the Mother Of the Universe. In a promo released by
