The story of Dhruv and Vedica.
Dhruv had spent his entire life under the umbrella of guilt… guilt for having caused his brother to lose a leg… If it weren't for him, his brother Antariksh would have been a healthy young man.
Being the son of Prem Raizyada, one of the most influential businessmen in the country, he deserved better than that.
Antariksh lost the function of his left leg in an accident caused unknowingly by Dhruv that his mother Kavita began to hate Dhruv. The only respite he had was Aarti… a girl whom he had known since childhood and had grown to love.Niharika was gradually mellowing down to Antariksh as she began to understand that she must make the best of the situation. Finally the much-awaited happiness began to return to the family.
Problems began when Vedika was fully cured and she refused to acknowledge Dhruv as her husband. She was simply waiting for the man she loved who everyone thought had died. Dhruv is heartbroken. The girl for whom he did everything that could be thought off has now forgotten him all together.
It was at his family janmashtami function and Antariksh' birthday that Antariksh was dancing and he collided and tumbled to the ground taking with him a very pretty girl who gave him hell for his clumsiness. He was the laughing stock of all those present there. Kavita, on seeing all this, pledged that she would find the prettiest bride in the world for her lame son.
She came up on a family that was ready to give the hand of their elder daughter, Niharika in marriage to Antariksh on the condition that their younger son Dhruv would be married to their second daughter, Vedika who was mentally infirm. Kavita immediately agreed.
The wedding took place with all the grandeur that can be imagined. The only problem was that Antariksh's wife, Niharika loathed the sight of her husband and made him miserable.
Dhruv's family hated his wife, Vedika and the treatment meted out to her was very bad.
Dhruv began to treat his wife with the help of his ex- love Aarti who was a psychiatrist. Gradually, Vedika began to show improvement.
