Plot[]

Rishabh, a blind person lives with his Rajput family. His sister, Geetanjali falls in love with military officer Abhimanyu. As Rishabh refuses for this alliance, Geetanjali disobeys him and marries Abhimanyu. Though initially, outraged, he later accepts Abhimanyu who dies in a car crash.

Six years later[]

As Abhimanyu's body was never found, Geetanjali waits for his return. Her childhood friend, army officer Rajveer Malhotra, reveals Indian Army hasn't found any trace of Abhimanyu's survival so he is dead. Geetanjali meets a 6 year-old Priyam. Claiming to be Abhimanyu's reincarnation, Priyam is tested to know his identity but surprisingly passes. His greedy parents permit him to be adopted by Rishabh for Geetanjali's sake in exchange for a handsome sum.

Ragini, a stranger claims to be related to Geetanjali. It turns out that Abhimanyu is alive, and finally Geetanjali catches him, who says he betrayed her for revenge against her family. Ratna reveals how she was raped by his father Bhavani when she was pregnant with his child but he got her married to the widower Rajesh Shekhari, Geetanjali's father. Kavya is in fact Bhavani and Ratna's daughter.

Now, the biggest truth comes out that not Abhimanyu, it is his identical twin Aditya who is seeking revenge from his own family, as Bhavani wanted to kill him in past when it was predicated Aditya would cause his death. But Aditya was saved and raised by another guy with the story of Bhavani's abandonment etched into his soul. So it was Aditya's plan to snatch Abhimanyu's place as he holds him responsible for his abandoning.

Geetanjali plans to rescue Abhimanyu. Rishabh reveals both families had have long enmity between them and how he loved Ragini, who was pregnant with his child and he'd to betray her to believe he had played with her for the pride of his family. Priyam turns out to be their real son Varun. As Bhavani's men had killed Ragini after she gave birth to Varun, he diverted the blame on Rishabh for revenge.

An alive Abhimanyu and Aditya jump from a cliff and fight near jail. Aditya murders Bhavani and tries to kill Geetanjali too, but Rishabh saves her and dies, while she shoots Aditya to death.
