Plot

Rajeev Bansal, a simpleton bank manager, lives in Jaipur with his loving and caring family; comprising of his wife Jhanvi, children Trishala and Rishabh, parents Pratap and Sushma, brother Rajan, sister-in-law Ruchi, and nephew Varun. Rishabh is a moody, spirited, and cool modern-generation teenager who shares a close bond with Jhanvi and confides all his special moments with her but doesn't have the same rapport with Rajeev. Thus, Rajeev desires to erase the age gap between him and Rishabh and become a close friend and confidant to him. Rishabh finds his father's efforts to befriend him slightly childish, but an adamant Rajeev eventually succeeds in befriending his son.

Once, Rajeev and Jhanvi are talking to each other on phone while Jhanvi is driving. Due to this, Jhanvi doesn't see a pedestrian in front of her car and immediately turns her car as she notices him. The pedestrian survives but Jhanvi accidentally hits another car. Both she and the man in the other car die in this tragic accident.

One year later

Rajeev has lost interest in his life due to Jhanvi's death. A new Punjabi senior manager named Daljeet Bagga joins his bank who had lost her husband, Ravinder, in a car accident. Rajeev makes an awkward mistake while welcoming Daljeet, thus creating a terrible first impression. As Daljeet humiliates him in front of everyone, both of them take an instant dislike to each other. However, Daljeet is a kind and soft person from inside. Rajeev feels sympathy for her when a dark side of her life is revealed that Shakti, Ravinder's selfish and evil younger brother, is trying to snatch Daljeet's children, Balwinder "Barry" and Twinkle, from her in the court as they are the heirs to Ravinder's property. Rajeev learns that Daljeet's husband was the other person who died in Jhanvi's accident. Shocked and guilt-ridden, he marries Daljeet in the court to protect her children. She wins Barry and Twinkle's custody but Rajeev's family opposes Rajeev and Daljeet's relationship, unaware that their marriage is only a fake contract. Rishabh and Barry remain at loggerheads and become great rivals. Shakti repeatedly attempts to separate Rajeev and Daljeet but fails. After much trouble, Daljeet makes a place for herself in the Bansal family and is accepted by everyone except Rajeev's children.

Barry initially hated Rajeev and cared about Shakti, but Shakti's true colours are soon revealed. Barry then starts liking Rajeev and later accepts him as his father, to Rishabh's dismay. Rishabh refuses to see Daljeet as his mother and hates her as he believes that she is trying to replace Jhanvi and snatch his father from him. Daljeet stands up for Trishala against Rajeev in a certain situation and supports her despite facing humiliation and taunts. Thereafter, Trishala realises how much Daljeet loves her and accepts her as her mother.

Daljeet, though hesitant at first, falls in love with Rajeev and eventually confesses her love to Rajeev but he continues living by Jhanvi's memories and thus refuses to accept Daljeet's feelings. Daljeet feels heartbroken but hides the pain. Shortly thereafter, Shakti exposes the truth to the family members about the contractual basis of Rajeev and Daljeet's marriage, which shocks them but they support her nonetheless. Shakti again tries to snatch Barry and Twinkle's custody from Daljeet but his true face is exposed by Rajeev. Daljeet wins the case but her fake marriage with Rajeev is annulled. Both of them are disheartened by the annulment, while Rajeev unexpectedly falls in love with her but doesn't realise his feelings. Rishabh plots to humiliate Daljeet by spiking her drink at a party but repents when she discovers his plans but still defends him. Rishabh develops a soft corner for Daljeet and eventually accepts her as his mother.

Daljeet finds out that Jhanvi was responsible for her husband's death. Feeling betrayed, she refuses to forgive Rajeev for hiding this and ignores his sincere attempts to apologize. Meanwhile, Rishabh is bullied by seniors in his college. Barry defends him and thrashes the seniors along with Rishabh. Barry and Rishabh develop a mutual understanding and finally become friends. In a twist of events, Daljeet meets with an accident planned by Shakti for revenge. Shakti further tries to kill Daljeet in the hospital by cutting her oxygen supply, bringing her on the verge of death. A devastated Rajeev rushes to the hospital, hugs Daljeet and breaks into tears. Miraculously, she opens her eyes and later makes a full recovery. The fear of losing Daljeet makes Rajeev realise that he is in love with her. Daljeet forgives Rajeev after witnessing his repentance and learning about the care he showed for her in the hospital. After several challenges, Rajeev musters the courage and confesses his love to Daljeet, which makes her overjoyed as she hugs him and accepts his heartfelt proposal. Rajeev and Daljeet face several obstacles which threaten to destroy their relationship but they defeat them together. Eventually, they get married in a grand ceremony.

However, the happiness is short-lived. Barry suffers a severe head injury in a fight with Rishabh and loses the memory of the previous year, and also forgets about Rajeev and Daljeet's marriage. He becomes the same angry young man he was a year ago and starts disliking Rajeev again because of his closeness to Daljeet, which forces Rajeev and Daljeet to hide that they are a married couple. Rajeev learns the truth behind Barry's accident and cuts all ties with Rishabh but is eventually convinced by Daljeet to forgive him, after he witnesses Rishabh's care towards Barry and his repentance towards his mistake. Meanwhile, Shakti returns and forces Daljeet to give him all her properties by threatening to reveal to Barry her marriage with Rajeev. However, Barry catches Shakti forcing a helpless Daljeet and furiously tears the property papers, making a humiliated Shakti leave.

Ravinder, Daljeet's husband who was thought to be dead, turns out to be alive and returns for Daljeet. Heartbroken that Daljeet has remarried, Ravinder decides to leave forever for her happiness but his identity is accidentally revealed. Ravinder restores Barry's memories of the previous year and of Rajeev-Daljeet's marriage by recreating a past situation, after which Rishabh and Barry reconcile. As a shocked Daljeet finds herself in the dilemma to choose between Rajeev and Ravinder, an equally shocked Rajeev consoles her and promises to accept whatever her decision is. Ravinder, poisoned by his fear of losing Daljeet and manipulated by a vengeful Shakti, plots to get her back. Rajeev is shocked when he learns about Ravinder's selfish motives but doesn't expose him. Rajeev further sacrifices his love for Daljeet and tries to make her go with Ravinder by faking a critical illness but Daljeet eventually learns the truth. Enraged, she confronts Rajeev and confesses that she would die without him, as both of them embrace and reunite. Ravinder realises his mistake and apologises to Rajeev. Shakti, infuriated that his plan failed, shoots at Rajeev but Ravinder gets shot while saving him. Ravinder shoots Shakti in return and kills him. Before dying himself, Ravinder asks Rajeev to take care of Daljeet.

Six months later

Rajeev and Daljeet are celebrating their first wedding anniversary. Rajeev romantically proposes to Daljeet, making her blush as everyone cheers for the happy couple. Rishabh, now in his first year of IIT, sets out to shape his future with everyone's blessings and best wishes. As Rishabh informs that he is running late, Rajeev drops him off to the train station on his scooter, not as a father but as a supportive friend, concluding the series.
