At the age of 18, Mahua's parents sell her to Ramesh by using a system called "Nath Utrayi", as he tries to kill her. She is saved by Shambhu, who marries her. After their marriage, Shambhu died in the hands of Ramesh and Mahua's elder sister, Boondi, who is his ex-fiancé who desired him as she had married to Radhe, Shambhu's cousin, as she had taken revenge against on her and Mahua marries Inspector Aryan Mishra, her best friend, while she also kills Boondi whom she tries to harm Aryan and she also destroys her evil spirit as she tries to harm her and also the family. Mahua, becomes pregnant and giving birth to two daughters, steals one from her father, Garjan Mishra. She steals the child from a woman selling it, and Aryan and Mahua separate, each taking one daughter.
Mahua, is a school teacher in the village, raises her daughter Krishna, while Aryan is in love with Kajal while raising his daughter Gauri. Aryan decided to divorce Mahua to marry Kajal and live happily. Mahua refuses to sign the divorce papers, and Ammaji announces Aryan and Kajal's wedding in front of the villagers. While Mahua's aunt, Poonam fixes her marriage with Kishor. Aryan and Mahua reunited, but Aryan is killed by Ramesh. Mahua mistakenly goes to Pakistan, but with the help of Shoaib, she escapes and returns to India. After that she marries Captain Aditya Rathore. Padma is murdered, and Ramesh is arrested. Mahua helps Janaki, but Sukant Narayan tortures her. Mahua exposes Sukant's crimes, but he kills her by throwing her off a building under construction.
Durga, Krishna, and Gauri live in poverty due to Mrs. Narayan's theft of the Thakur family's ancestral house. Gauri falls in love with Jeet Narayan, but Krishna married Jeet. Gauri fails to win back Jeet. She marries Sukant Narayan, Jeet's paternal uncle, to take revenge. Sukant is sent to a mental asylum. Krishna discovers Sukant inherited the ancestral house from Mrs. Narayan. Gauri betrays Krishna, claiming she is Sukant's wife and orders her to leave. Jeet eventually falls in love with Krishna and realizes Gauri's evil, but shortly afterwards Krishna is shot, falls off a cliff, and is presumed dead. Gopal suffers a heart attack during her wedding, at the same time as Krishna's attack. Gopala loses her memory and is left with Krishna's emotions, falling in love with Jeet and following him to the Narayan residence, convinced that he is her husband. Jeet initially rejects her, still in mourning for Krishna, but after escaping from Gauri's traps with the help of Gopala, he decides to accept Gopala's love and take her as his wife. But Krishna is alive, is held captive by Ajju, Gopala's fiancé, who plots against the Narayans. Gopala is after Jeet's money and wants to kill him. Later, Krishna manages to regain consciousness, just in time to prevent Gopala and Jeet's remarriage. With the help of a remorseful Gauri, Krishna sends Gopala to prison and decides to resume her marriage with Jeet. Krishna becomes pregnant with Jeet's child.
However, Gauri again becomes evil and tries to make Krishna believe that she suffered a miscarriage, while she herself becomes pregnant with Jeet and Krishna's child via
IVF and feigns being attacked by Krishna. She then gives birth to a son via surrogacy and convinces everyone that Krishna killed it and is arrested, but on the way the police car explodes and Krishna is presumed dead.
Jeet married Gauri in order to raise his and Krishna's son Shiv whom he assumed of Gauri, but he never forgot Krishna. Meanwhile, Krishna fakes her own death after feeling betrayed by Jeet and his family, she becomes a police officer and raises her and Jeet's daughter, Gopika. The Narayan family is unaware of Gopika. But Krishna and Jeet meet again, as Shiv and Gopika meet and become friends, forcing Krishna have to face her past again. This approach leaves Gauri scared and obsessive, as she now fears losing not only her position as Jeet's wife, but also her son, since Shiv is in reality not her biological son but his adopted one, and possibly the son of Krishna herself. She creates countless situations to prevent Jeet from meeting Krishna, seeing Gopika with bad eyes and feeling guilty for leaving Shiv aside. Eventually, Gopika's paternity is revealed and Jeet decides to separate from Gauri and try to reconcile with Krishna. Finally, Gauri accepts that she has lost Jeet and tries to fake a good relationship with Krishna to keep Shiv with her.
