Plot[]

Anubhav "Anu" Kulshreshth is a young 28 year old scientist, who lives with his big happy joint family. On the other hand, Riddhima "Gungun" Bhatnagar is a rich spoilt 21 year old young girl, who lives with her father and aunt. Gungun's mother left the house and abandoned her family 12 years ago, when Gungun was just 8 years old, for her career and thus, Gungun hates her for it. Her rudeness is the only way of hiding her pain from everyone and she does parties to take away her loneliness.

Anu's family thinks Gungun is a perfect match for Anu, but Anu disagrees as he only sees Gungun's rudeness. Gungun goes out partying with her friends. She also invites Chhavi but Anu disagrees as he doesn't like late night parties. Gungun also feels a connection with Kulshreshts, but hates Anu. Anu insults Gungun and her friends in the party but apologises to Gungun later at Dr. Ridhesh's behest. On her 21st birthday party, Gungun kept avoiding Anu for insulting her. Later that night Gungun gets a call from her mother wishing her a Happy Birthday. But Gungun poured out her hate towards her mother as she never visited Gungun in the past 12 years. Anu overheard her conversation and realised the reason behind Gungun's rudeness is actually not getting the love she wanted from her mother.

During the party, Dr. Riddhesh asks the Kulshreshts if Anu could get married to Gungun, and they agree. The next day, they speak to Anu about it who completely disagrees to the marriage, citing Gungun's arrogance and inability to adjust in their household as reasons, upsetting his family. Finally, after his family's emotional request, he agree. Even Gungun agrees as she fails in her exams. Before the wedding they both make a deal to break their wedding, when Gungun passes her exams next year and when Anubhav feels it's not good for them to be together.

Few days later, Anubhav is awarded the 'Scientist of the year' award and he sings in the ceremony impressing Gungun a little. On the day of ceremony, Garima sees her daughter Akriti being Anubhav's junior and tries to talk to her but she confronts Garima making her feel shattered as she thinks her mother left her for luxurious life, but Garima misses her daughter everyday and loves her a lot and everyone tries to make Akriti realise it, but she doesn't listen to them. Akriti also hates Gungun and Dr. Riddhesh for this. Gungun takes Anubhav's help to patch up them both but fails. Akriti has feelings for Anubhav, but later is shocked to learn about Anubhav and Gungun's wedding. Whereas, the Kulshreshths and Bhatnagars start preparations for the wedding, while the wedding sees a new problem. Golu (Anubhav's uncle) is accused for bank robbery done by his colleague Keshav. Kulshreshths hide this from Bhatnagars and decides to cancel the marriage. Soon Gungun and Dr. Riddhesh finds the conflict and Gungun pays the money from her account to save Golu and also police find the real culprit. Anubhav and his family thank Gungun. Akriti confesses her love to Anu, to which he rejects her.
