Plot

The story revolves around a love triangle between Fateh Singh Virk and two sisters, Tejo and Jasmine Sandhu. Fateh and Tejo wish to make their future in Moga, while Jasmine only has one dream, to go to Canada.

Fateh is in love with Jasmine and wishes to marry her. Jasmine too falls for him and agrees for marriage after Fateh gets a job in Canada. However, she breaks relations with him when she finds out he lost his job. Later on, she regrets her decision after seeing the love Fateh holds for her but by then it's too late. In order to save the family’s reputation, Tejo and Fateh both marry. Afterwards, Tejo falls for Fateh even though he still loves Jasmine. Jasmine, harshly regretting her decisions confesses her love to him while also plotting against Tejo. As Fateh accepts her back and cheats on Tejo, Tejo wishes for a divorce.

Later on, Tejo gets engaged to Angad so Fateh and Jasmine could get married. As both Fateh and Jasmine are about to leave for Canada, Fateh burns her boarding ticket and passport, revealing to her that the wedding was fake and planned by him when he finds out about the misdeeds Jasmine committed to attain him. On the other hand, Angad falls in love with Tejo, but she declares him as a friend. Fateh and Jasmine go their separate ways, though Jasmine vows to seek vengeance from Fateh.

After many trials and tribulations, Fateh and Tejo end up together. Angad and Jasmine both join hands to separate them, but later, Angad realizes his evil deeds and leaves. Jasmine ends up marrying Amrik when she was trying to marry Fateh for revenge. Later on, Fateh, Tejo, Amrik and Jasmine get into a car accident where Jasmine turns over a new leaf after seeing Amrik and Tejo's love for her. As Fateh and Tejo are about to get engaged, Fateh breaks relations with her after finding out she hid Jasmine's misdeeds against Amrik. In anger, Tejo decides to marry Angad but on the wedding day, she finds out she is pregnant with Fateh's child. Angad tells her to go to Fateh, but in reality sets her up to get burned alive in a warehouse.

6 months later

Jasmine and Amrik decide to go to London and start their life afresh as everyone in their family was still refusing to accept their relationship especially after Tejo's death. In London, Jasmine and Amrik come across Tanya, Tejo's look-alike. Angad, also residing in London, believes Tanya is Tejo and wishes to kill her. Tanya admits to being Tejo and accuses Fateh and Jasmine of trying to kill her.

Angad's true face is revealed and he is arrested for Tejo's murder. Amrik ends up dying while saving Tanya. In a shocking event, it's revealed that Tanya isn't Tejo and was assigned by the cops to find out the truth behind Tejo's murder. Tanya, Jasmine and Fateh return to Moga and have Tanya pretend to be Tejo.

Jasmine finds out she is pregnant with Amrik's child and is determined to give her child the perfect life. She once again becomes obsessed with getting Fateh as she wants him to raise the child with her. Shockingly however, Tanya reunites Tejo, who is now mentally unstable after the fire, with Fateh. Jasmine continues plotting against her but fails in every one of her attempts.

Fateh marries Tejo and she eventually regains her memories. Later, Jasmine ends up miscarrying and fakes her pregnancy. She pretends to give birth and leaves an orphan at the hospital, claiming it to be Amrik and her child. Tejo and Fateh know the truth but for the family's happiness, keep it a secret and raise the child as their own daughter. They named her Nehmat. Jasmine, on the other hand, marries Yash and moves to Canada, finally accomplishing her lifelong dream.

6 years later

Jasmine returns to India with her daughter Naaz, suffering from domestic violence by Yash and his mother, however, Rupi refuses to accept her. Tejo and Fateh lovingly raise Nehmat while Jasmine and Naaz barely get by. Jasmine decides to leave Naaz with her family so she can attain the love and happiness she deserved. Jasmine leaves a note stating that she doesn't wish to meet them again as she is not a great person to have in anyone's life. Naaz and Nehmat become friends and treat each other like sisters. However, Naaz starts getting jealous of the attention Nehmat gets and misses Jasmine. Seeing this, Fateh and Tejo decide it would be best to also adopt Naaz. Unfortunately, before this could happen, Fateh, Tejo and the Virks all die in a car accident. Nehmat, Naaz and the Sandhu family are left devastated.

16 years later

Naaz and Nehmat are all grown up. Nehmat and Ekam are madly in love. Ekam, a trainee IPS officer wishes to help Nehmat find the reason behind the Virk family's accident and demise, as well as his father's suspension. Naaz is still suffering from inferiority complex due to all the attention Nehmat gets, wishing to snatch all her happiness. The only person who sees Naaz's true face is Malika. Hence, the two don’t get along. Naaz tries to break Nehmat's friendship with Malika by showing her to-be husband and Nehmat in a secret affair. Moreover, she releases an article labeling Ekam’s father as a corrupt cop under Nehmat’s name, due to which he commits suicide. In reality, Advait only wishes to marry Malika so Ekam doesn’t question his family about the Virk family’s car accident. It’s revealed that Advait's father and Jasmine were behind it.

Being pressurized by Naaz, Nehmat eventually marries Advait and falls victim to his tortures. Harleen also arrives in Moga inform Nehmat that she is Advait's legal wife. However, falling in love with Ekam, she destroys the marriage certificate. Additionally, to keep Ekam away from Nehmat, she threatens Advait to keep Nehmat with him. After a series of events, Nehmat is proven innocent of all accusations. The father and son duo try to stop Nehmat but remain unsuccessful. Though greatly loving Ekam, Nehmat still doesn't agree for marriage with him since she wants Ekam and Harleen to be together. Harleen after realising that Ekam can never love anyone other than Nehmat and seeing Ekam and Nehmat's love and care for each other, reveals to the media her legal marriage to Advait, three years previously in Canada, thereby nullifying Advait's marriage with Nehmat.

During the Holika Dahan, Advait tries to kill Harleen by putting her inside the Holika Dahan but Nehmat saves her. Ekam brings Advait to the police station and Nehmat and Harleen beat him up and he is soon arrested. During the Holi festival, Ekam and Nehmat get closer after being intoxicated with Bhaang in their drink. Shamsher Kapoor decides to forcefully bring Harleen to the police station for her to take back the complaint against Advait. After a series of events, Harleen is shot by Shamsher. Nevertheless, Harleen eventually regains consciousness and becomes aware of the fact that she is infertile, but decides not to inform her family. Nehmat decides to sacrifice her love for Harleen by leaving Moga, so she can get her love Ekam. But Ekam stops her and make her realise her love for him. Renuka too witnessed Nehmat and Ekam's love for each other and goes to Sandhu's house with Ekam's marriage proposal for Nehmat. Before Nehmat and Ekam's wedding preparations begins, Ekam and Nehmat secretly get married in Gurudwara and consummates their marriage. During wedding functions, Jasmine plots many conspiracies to call off Nehkam's wedding but fails. On wedding day Nehmat gets blackmailed by Jasmine to cancel the wedding or she will frame Ekam for Advait murder and will kill Ekam. Nehmat agrees forcefully. Under family pressure, Ekam and Harleen are married.

Nehmat leaves Moga and reaches Samrala. Nehmat encounters a con artist named Joginder who was faking to be Sartaj. Ekam goes on a mission to Samrala to arrest a smuggler gang, where Nehmat and Ekam feels each other's presence. Nehmat saves Ekam there, without his acknowledgement. After returning to Moga, Ekam plans to make Harleen visit local villages to cheer her up. Ekam and Harleen unintentionally end up in Samrala. Nehmat hides herself from Ekam and Harleen. Jogender discovers Ekam is a police officer, intoxicates Ekam and attempts to kill him, but Nehmat saves Ekam. Nehmat releases real Sartaj from Joginder's capture. Later, it is revealed that Sartaj is the eldest son of Balbeer Randhawa. Naaz marries Balbeer in order to gain full access to Rupi's ancestral land and the Randhawa house. Sartaj takes a fainted Nehmat to Randhawa house claiming her to be his fiancée. Nehmat and Ekam are shocked and overwhelmed to see each other. Nehmat continues the drama of being Sartaj's fiancée so that Ekam can move on with Harleen. Nehmat finds that she is pregnant with Ekam's child and leaves with Sartaj concealing her pregnancy from him. Nehmat delivers a baby girl name Aliya, which Harleen steals from the hospital by threatening and bribing Nurse to exchange Nehmat's baby with a dead child, and tell Ekam and the whole family that she had adopted her from the orphanage. Ekam too names the baby girl Aliya.

6 years later

Ekam and Harleen are living with Alia. Nehmat and Sartaj are still mourning over Alia's presumed death. Nehmat works at a summer camp, surrounded by children. Alia convinces Harleen to let her go to the summer camp. Nehmat and Alia form a bond without knowing that they are mother and daughter, but after Nehmat saves Alia from an accident and goes to the hospital, Sartaj finds the truth and tells Nehmat.

Nehmat confronts Harleen who refuses to admit her sin, saying that Nehmat can’t snatch Alia from her. Jasmine along with Harleen plan Nehmat's death, but instead Sartaj dies whilst Harleen's car also crashes into a river and she is presumed dead. Nehmat finds evidence of Jasmine failing her car brakes and gets her arrested.

Later, Ekam forcefully marries Nehmat for Alia. Eventually, they reconcile their love. Alia also accepts Nehmat as her mother. Harleen, who is revealed to be alive, wakes up with a memory loss. After some months Harleen finally regains her memory and reaches Ekam's house. She is angry with Nehmat's presence there. Harleen goes to meet Jasmine in jail. Jasmine tells her that Ekam and Nehmat are married now. This makes Harleen determined to take revenge on Nehmat. Harleen tries to marry Ekam again, but this time Ekam refuses to marry her because he is already married to Nehmat and loves her. Harleen pretends to be good and gets Nehmat and Ekam married again while plotting to destroy them both using Alia.

Harleen plans a hostage situation at Alia's school. Nehmat and Ekam try to save the kids. The goons ask Nehmat to exchange the three kids she saved in exchange for Alia and Armaan. Nehmat refuses and the goon points the gun at Alia's face. Alia is shocked that Nehmat refused to save her. Amidst all this, Sukhi, Armaan’s father, curses at Nehmat for trying to be grand. Ekam, Nehmat and Sukhi battle the other goons when the backup police arrive. Armaan gets a head injury and Sukhi rebukes Nehmat and says he would have made the exchange. After this incident, Harleen poisons Alia's mind against Nehmat so Alia begins to hate Nehmat.

At Harleen's farewell party, Alia misbehaves with Nehmat. To add to the drama, Sukhi comes with his goons to seek revenge against Nehmat and Ekam. Amidst the fight, Nehmat gets shot by Sukhi and Harleen runs away with Alia. At the hospital, Nehmat and Ekam find out Harleen's truth and they reach the airport. Nehmat slaps Harleen and Ekam rebukes Harleen for coming into their life and deports her back to Canada. Alia, who witnessed all this, exclaims that she hates Nehmat and Ekam for taking Harleen away from her. Nehmat and Ekam decide to not let Alia know about Harleen's true face, which Harleen uses in her favor to keep in touch with Alia and brainwash her against Nehmat and Ekam.

After reaching Canada, Harleen finds out she is pregnant. Apparently, she had not stopped her IVF process.

20 years later

Alia is grown up. Nehmat and Ekam are shown living with the Sandhus along with the rest of Randhawas. Alia remains in contact with Harleen, whom she still considers her mother. Thus, Alia only has one dream: to go to Canada and see Harleen. To aid her in her dreams is her boyfriend, Armaan. Unfortunately, Ekam and Sukhi are still enemies so Alia and Armaan's relationship is a secret.

On the other hand, Aasma, Harleen and Ekam's daughter, dreams of going to India. Aasma gets a chance to go to India for a university project. Harleen reluctantly agrees and sends Deepak along with Aasma on the condition that Deepak will keep Aasma away from Ekam and his family.

Alia, Armaan and Aasma's path cross multiple times. By fate, Armaan and Aasma keep meeting each other. Alia, who is very possessive about Armaan, comes to dislike Aasma after a misunderstanding. Aasma also ends up meeting Nehmat, Ekam and the entire family, with whom she feels at home. Aasma is treated like an outsider by the Dhillon family. She doesn't know what happened 20 years ago that made everyone upset with Deepak. Sukhi has bad blood with Deepak and wants to kill him. Aasma, unaware of the past, wants to win Beeji's heart. Similarly, Alia and Armaan are trying to end the enmity between Sukhi and Ekam so they can get everyone's blessings and get married.

Meanwhile, Rano, Armaan's mother, asks for Aasma's hand in marriage for Armaan; as she believes this will end the enmity between the two families. Armaan and Aasma are both against it. Armaan tries to elope with Alia but Alia refuses. Aasma finally finds out from Beeji what happened 20 years ago. Apparently, Deepak had left Baby, Sukhi's sister, at the altar and left for Canada. Aasma also finds out that she isn't Deepak's biological child. So, to honor her dad's lost respect, she agrees to marry Armaan. Alia and Armaan try to run away to Dubai, but Sukhi catches them. He forces Armaan to marry Aasma, on the condition that he won't harm Alia. Armaan and Aasma get married, which makes Alia more possessive about Armaan.
