Plot

This tale of pure love begins as Arjun Punj, son of a business tycoon D K Punj, is introduced in jail. He refuses to accept release on bail, or talk to any lawyer. Ganga Rai, a young lawyer, is determined to find his story out.
Arjun emotionally reveals that he fell in love with a simple girl from the small town of Shimla, Aarohi Sharma, who sang beautifully. Her father runs a Gurukul, and she lived with her indifferent brother and his greedy wife, her widowed sister-in-law Purvi, and her two younger sisters, Sur and Antara.
After Hari Prasad Sharma retires, Aarohi takes up a job as Arjun's associate to support her family, but is not treated well by Arjun, who is arrogant, materialistic, and the son of a separated couple, due to which he hates his mother, and thus all women. Aarohi continues to stand up to him, which attracts Arjun and softens him towards her, and they gradually develop feelings for each other.
Meanwhile, their ties are strengthened as Salil Mittal, Arjun's best friend, and the son of D K Punj's business partner, falls in love with Purvi, and marries her against his family's wishes.
During this, Arjun finds out that Aarohi's mentor and mother-figure is actually his mother Savita, who abandoned him in childhood. He feels betrayed by Aarohi and breaks off their alliance, only to find out it was rather his father's fault that his parents separated. He wishes to reconcile with Aarohi, but they meet with an accident.
Post recovery, Aarohi goes to Mumbai to pursue her music career, and soon meets a charming man Karan. Her family supports her relationship with Karan, but she still loves Arjun. D K Punj, scared of having another middle-class "greedy" woman in a rich family, reveals to Aarohi that Arjun is adopted, and blackmails her with this long-kept secret, to leave Arjun. Aarohi thus accepts Karan's proposal. When Arjun finds this out, he kidnaps Aarohi from her wedding venue, and her family rushes to rescue her. In the scuffle, her father falls from the terrace and dies, and Arjun is blamed and arrested for his murder.
The show takes a leap to the present, as Arjun finishes his narration, and Ganga Rai begins to try proving him innocent to prevent his hanging. She finds Aarohi, who is now a popular singer, and asks her to help Arjun, but she refuses. Meanwhile, Salil's mother Padmalakshmi Mittal has a footage of that night, and accidentally misplaces it in some packages. Aarohi receives the CD which proves Arjun's innocence and rushes to save Arjun, and is successful, but unfortunately does not meet him.
Both of them leave for Shimla, where they first met, and wish to retire there from a life of chaos. As Aarohi runs towards the train, Arjun reaches his hand out to her, like the first time they met and they unite. The last scene shows them marrying happily ever after.
