Bhavani decides to get Savi's marriage done as soon as possible.

Ninad is afflicted with alzheimers, and the Chavans keep him away from the fact that Sai and Virat are no longer alive.

Bhavani had also gotten her granddaughter, Harini married to a man, named Kiran. Unbeknownst to Bhavani, Kiran is abusive towards Harini and lacks respect towards any women in general.

Meanwhile in Pune, a bond of mutual admiration forms between the managing director of Bhosale Institute of Excellence, Ishaan Bhosle and his student, Reeva Marathe who were childhood friends. Ishaan suffers from a traumatic past as his mother, Isha had left him while he was young to take care of her ailing parents. Ishaan misunderstands the situation and thinks that she had left him to advance in her career, due to the lies told to him by his aunt, Surekha and his uncle, Yashwant which has made Ishaan hostile towards her. Isha is also Savi's mentor and mother-figure who motivates her to take part in the debate competition held in Nagpur to get a scholarship from Bhosale Institute of Excellence, which will bring her a step closer to becoming an IAS. Savi wins the scholarship, but much to her dismay, Bhavani has already arranged a marriage for her. Bhavani disregards her career ambitions and asks her to marry Samruddh Latkar.

Seeing Ishaan and Reeva's growing closeness, Yashwant proposes their marriage to Reeva's father Swanand and he agrees, but Reeva's mother, Swati is apprehensive of this relationship. On the engagement day, Swati blackmails Reeva that she will kill herself if Reeva doesn't go to London for her further studies as she fears that she will not be able to progress in her career once she gets married. Reeva agrees to do so and Ishaan, unable to heal from his mother, Isha's apparent betrayal, breaks off his engagement with Reeva.

An apprehensive Savi informs Isha about her forced marriage. Sensing trouble, Isha seeks to learn about Samruddh. In a shocking disclosure, it is revealed that Samruddh is in fact a drunkard, drug addict and druggist womanizer, as well as the fact that he has been arrested twice for harassing women well in intoxicated state and is having an affair with a married woman, and that his father, Mandar Latkar is a don in Ramtek. Isha informs Savi about this. Upon learning the truth, Savi informs Ashwini, Ninad and Harini. They ask Savi to run away from the marriage. Savi flees the marriage to Pune with the help of Isha, hoping to be admitted to the Bhosale Institute.

Bhavani arrogantly disowns Savi, disregarding the reason why she had run away from the wedding in the first place, after she discovers that Isha and the rest of the family helped her run away, Ashwini, Ninad and Isha all put Bhavani in her place, coldly stating that the reason why Savi never presented the evidence, regarding Samruddh's disgusting nature to her, is because she knows full-well that Bhavani would have just ignored the evidence, as she only cares about her false reputation and controlling everything, as well as the society's opinion.

After facing much, Savi is admitted to the Bhosale Institute with Isha's help. Savi faces many problems in the college as she is bullied by Dhurva and her gang, and receives no support from Ishaan. Savi was also almost molested by Harini's abusive husband, Kiran.

Harini is pregnant but Kiran beats her so badly that she suffers a miscarriage and cannot become a mother again. Savi beats up Kiran and gets him arrested with the help of ACP Bajirao, Shantanu's old student. Kiran's parents call Bhavani to Pune and Savi reveals the truth to her. Bhavani regrets her actions and says that Savi was right to arrest Kiran. Later, Mandar and Samruddh escape and come to Bhosale's house in Pune under the name of Mr. Patil and Sam Patil for a marriage proposal with Dhurva. They want an alliance with the Bhosales to pay off all their debts.

Savi reveals Mandar and Samruddh's true face to the Bhosales on Dhurva's engagement, but everyone arrogantly refuses to believe her. However, Ishaan supports her and she finally manages to make Mandar accept all his crimes. ACP Bajirao arrives to arrest them. Everyone is grateful to Savi for saving Dhurva's life, but Dhurva refuses to believe Savi and is crazy for Samruddh. The family blames Surekha for not doing a proper background check and for nearly ruining Dhurva's life. Surekha collaborates with Dhurva to get revenge on Isha and Savi.

Reeva returns from London, expressing her feelings to Ishaan, who harshly rejects her. Harini tells Savi about Ninad's deteriorating health. Bhavani and Vinayak bring Ninad to Pune for his treatment. Meanwhile, Reeva applies for a job as an Assistant Professor at Bhosale Institute but is denied entry to the college. Isha arrives as an interview panel member from the Education Board. With the help of Savi, Reeva enters the college and Ishaan becomes irritated after seeing her and tells her to leave but Isha, unaware of Ishaan and Reeva's relation, intervenes and allows her to give the interview. Reeva gave the interview after which Shantanu tells Isha about them. Isha feels guilty for hurting Ishaan and warns Reeva not to hurt Ishaan. Later, Reeva lands the job and Savi and Reeva become very good friends. Ishaan tells the newly appointed employees that they are on a probation period for three months after which he will decide based on their performance to be a permanent employee.

A head injury gives Ninad temporary memory loss. With the help of Ishaan, Ninad recovers his memory. Ishaan learns about Ninad from Savi and tells the doctor to do the surgery free of cost. The surgery is successful and Savi thanks Ishaan. Bhavani apologizes to Savi for her actions and supports her dreams. On Isha's birthday, Savi learns of her story. Savi decides to enact a play on the college fest based on Ishaan and Isha's story in which she plays the role of Isha and Reeva plays the role of Surekha. During the play, It is revealed that when Ishaan was six years old, Isha's brother died in an accident and Isha decided to move into her parent's house along with Ishaan and Shantanu but Surekha and Yashwant were against this. Shantanu refused to come with her and Surekha was against Isha for taking Ishaan along with her. When she was leaving, Surekha ordered Isha to leave the house without Ishaan. Isha requested Surekha and Yashwant but was helpless without getting support from Shantanu and left the house and ever since Ishaan has hated her to the core. After the play, Ishaan, Reeva, and the rest learn that the play was based on Ishaan's childhood and they get furious with Savi and Surekha slaps her. The whole family faces the media trial, but Ishaan faces it and accepts Surekha as his mother.

Despite Shantanu confirming that Isha's departure was, due to Surekha and Yashwant to be true, Ishaan remains angry and hostile towards both Isha and Savi, when in fact, he should be angry towards Surekha and Yashwant, not only for their misdeeds, but also for ruining his life and for separating him from his mother. Savi criticizes Ishaan for his behavior, reminding him that he is Isha's son and that his anger towards his mother is unjustified. After learning the truth, Ishaan knows that he can no longer be angry with Isha.

Bhavani learns the truth about Samruddh and why Savi ran away from marriage. Bhavani asks for forgiveness and decides to honor her in Ramtek. Meanwhile, Mandar and Samruddh are released from jail and decide to ruin Savi's life. But Savi takes leave for a few days and returns to Ramtek. Later, Swati tells the entire truth to Ishaan about Reeva's departure. Later, Surekha suffers a heart attack upon witnessing Ishaan publicly acknowledging Isha as his mother. She suffered a heart attack because Surekha had realized that her efforts to keep Isha and Ishaan apart had been ruined.

Reeva admits her to the hospital and her life is saved. Ishaan thanks Reeva for saving Surekha. Mandar and Samrudh stalk Savi and her entire family. Surekha fixes Reeva and Ishaan's marriage and accepts her. Later, Ishaan confesses his love to Reeva and proposes to her for marriage. Ishaan finds Ninad on the way to Nagpur and brings him back to Ramtek. Ishaan, Isha and Shantanu attend Savi's function.

Mandar and Samruddh kidnap Savi's family and torture them in an old factory. Samruddh threatens to kill Savi's family if she does not marry him. Ishaan arrives and rescues her family, but Samruddh shoots a bullet into an oil canister, causing an explosion. Savi arrives and is shocked to see the blast and takes her entire family to the hospital. Ishaan survives the blast and also reaches the hospital. The doctor says that everyone except for Harini has died in the blast. Savi is heartbroken and goes to confront Samruddh for killing her family, and he reveals that Ishaan is to be blamed, but she doesn't believe him. Samruddh inadvertently admits to his crimes in front of the police force who are present there, sealing his and his father, Mandar's, fates.
