. The story shows how a less educated but worldly wise, mature and extremely talented Laxmi overcomes obstacles to settle down in her life.
Plot
Laxmi is rooted in Indian traditions and has an inborn knack for winning peoples hearts with her pleasant demeanor and sweet smile even in adverse situations. For Laxmi, 'Sanskaar' does not mean only following rituals blindly but it means caring for everyone and valuing relationships.
Laxmi enters a rich but fragmenting joint urban Purohit family based in Mumbai as their daughter-in-law and plays the central role in stopping the family from falling apart. How the Purohit family, a traditional believer in rituals and culture of Hindu religion deals with the rural, modern and ultramodern lifestyle after bringing in their daughters-in-law; how significant a role Laxmi plays after coming in and how she overcomes her own as well as her family's trials and tribulations forms the basis of the show.
