Manmeet wanted to take revenge on Meet, he even tries to kill her. But they turn friends after events and now she is in love with him. Shagun tries to act as a thorn in Meet and Manmeet’s relationship out of jealousy. Rajvardhan and Babita die in a car accident; and on Rajvardan’s death bed he has asked Manmeet to take care of Meet. Later on conflict arises as Manmeet lied about Rajvardan and Babita's death; thus leading her to find out; then in a turn of events Manmeet believes Meet stabbed him with a knife (when in reality it was Shagun, growing more jealous). Manmeet is sent to the hospital and Sakar was trying to kill her, by asking Yashoda to shoot her, for supposedly attacking Manmeet. Thus Manmeet begs Meet to leave and never return; however Meet, goes in to disguise as a nurse, which Shagun hired to help meet, to find out what else is Shagun's plan, as Manmeet still has feelings for Meet. Finally, it is revealed what happened and now Manmeet has forgiven Meet, but cannot bare to see Shagun leave. Thus, creating two sides where Manmeet has to choose between the two women he loves, either Meet or Shagun. Meet is supported by Yashoda (now sympathetic to Meet); and Shagun is supported by Sarkar, Gunwanti, and Mahendra. Then after a turn of events Manmeet choses Meet; thus causing Shagun and Gunwanti (who is Shagun's elder sister) plan to get Manmeet to support Shagun but their plans backfires; thus causing Meet and Manmeet to grow closer. Then Shagun create more problems by involving her elder brother Nitin and when that starts to fail she tries to get run over, and then becomes blind, although she is faking, thus making Meet feel more guilty as Gunwanti and Nitin blame Meet for Shagun's accident. After a few months Shagun along with Nitin are finally caught and Yashoda kicks them out of the Sangwan house.
