Naina Batra, a woman close to her family breaks up with her fiancé Amit due to her heart patient mother Asha's illness and leaves to Austria for the operation.

Sanjana is pregnant with Veer's child. Indumati allows Veer back in the family and announces his marriage with Sanjana. Veer feels jealous of Naina and Raghav. Indumati goes into a coma. Raghav starts a new business but he needs money for that. A buyer Rehaan Khanna enters. Naina meets his wife Ahana and agrees to become a surrogate mother. Naina gives that money to Raghav to start his business.
Due to a misunderstanding, Raghav thinks that Naina has an affair and carries someone else's baby.
