Plot
Viraj Dobriyal is a wealthy and powerful business tycoon who falls in love with an educated, simple and middle class girl named Jhanvi Sharma and marries her. Gradually, she discovers that he is over-possessive and abusive when she faces domestic abuse. Viraj, who had an abusive childhood, is irrationally dominating (he has been diagnosed with OCD) while being sweet, polite and nice in front of people. Viraj sees Jhanvi with Sanjay one day when she went shopping to buy a gift for Viraj. Sanjay drops Jhanvi home. Meanwhile, Viraj sees Sanjay holding her hand. Jhanvi decorates the house with candles and flowers and makes a cake for Viraj. When Viraj comes home, angry at her for being with Sanjay, he beats her up and rapes her. She becomes pregnant with Viraj's baby. Viraj is not happy to see Jhanvi's grandmother at home. He tries to let her mother out of the house but at the same time Jhanvi and Dadi come. Viraj's plan backfires to Dadi. Dadi arrives at Payal's doctor (Komolika Rana) and she knows everything about Viraj and his bad bad behavior. Later, Viraj organised a marriage for Sia in a hotel. Manager of the hotel take Dadi to Viraj. Viraj tries to beat Jhanvi but she loses her child "Krishna " and imagines him in the cradle. She does not face her problems and suffers from miscarriage because of Viraj's abuse.
Viraj discovers that Sanjay has been released from jail. Sanjay tries to tell Jhanvi about Viraj but she refuses to believe him. Viraj sees the two of them on the CCTV of his house. So, a tense Viraj takes Jhanvi to a room and shows his family picture to her, who had died in his childhood. He reveals everything about his past and asks her not to ever leave him. Out of frustration, he tries to hit Jhanvi, but she does not react due to her promise.
Unable to bear Viraj's torture, Jhanvi attempts to kill herself. Later, Geeta encourages Jhanvi to live and face her problems. Dr. Komolika suspects Viraj for Dadi's illness and Sanjay's arrest. Viraj mistreats his mother. He then forcibly takes Jhanvi in his car and drops her at her parents' house. Jahnvi breaks down, on seeing her family members' dead bodies and her burned house. Jhanvi laments on seeing the dead bodies of her family members. Viraj tells that he doesn't care and continues to torture her. He burns Jhanvi's house. She loses all her senses and collapses. Desperate to escape, Jhanvi fakes her own death, changes her identity to Sia and flees to Gurgaon. Sia meets Raghav in Gurgaon who falls in love with her. She becomes a governess to his nephew, Krish, and comes to be loved by his family.
Viraj tracks her down and creates misunderstandings with Raghav's family. Sia finally stands up to him and realising her love for Raghav, divorces Viraj who is sent to a mental asylum.
One year later
Raghav's brother Dev and his wife Komal are killed. Raghav learns that the killer is their family friend ACP Saxena who moonlights as a criminal named Rana. When Viraj discovered Rana's truth, Rana used electroshock therapy to reduce Viraj's mental ability to that of a seven-year-old child. Raghav manages to get Rana arrested and saves Viraj from near death. He helps Viraj regain his memory after which Viraj tries to win Sia back but Raghav decides to return him to prison.
On their way, they are attacked by goons who kill Raghav. Raghav dies with Sia's name on his lips and Viraj is blamed for the murder. He tries to convince Sia but also wants her back in his life. He poisons her and tells her that he will administer the antidote only when she tells him she loves him. Sia refuses and dies telling Viraj that she only loved Raghav and that her heart will live on to ensure Viraj has to pay for his misdeeds.
After Sia's death
Sia's heart is donated to a TV journalist named Ananya. Aware of Sia and Viraj's story, Ananya digs deeper and discovers Viraj killed Sia. She tries to expose him but fails. Viraj finds out about the operation and is angered that something was stolen from Sia and tries to get her heart back.
Ananya discovers Viraj has been hiding Sia's dead body and finds it and takes it to be cremated. Viraj tries to stop her but she curses him and he suddenly realises how wrong he has been. Emotionally destroyed, he surrenders himself to the police and is sentenced to 14 years in prison. The story ends with Ananya's heart finally forgiving Viraj who is shown to be repenting his actions and living in prison with Sia's memories.
