No one besides her parents know about her existence, but she knows everyone in the family despite being separated from them. Kumud raises her in secret with love for years and warns her of the dangers of the outside world. Sunaina dreams of going outside.
Naresh still hates Sunaina, but it isn’t revealed why. Rajkumari wants to fortify her power and status, so she plans on getting her US-based son, Naman, married with Naresh’s niece, Pankaja. Due to Pankaja’s marriage plans, Naresh is scared of Sunaina’s secret coming out. Naresh instructs his brother, Pravesh, to kill Sunaina before Pankaja’s wedding. However, Pravesh fails to kill Sunaina.
Sunaina sneaks out of her room during the engagement ceremony to look at Pankaja’s fiancé as she wants to know what a groom looks like. Sunaina and Naman meet each other, and Naman falls for her at first sight. Naresh finds out that Sunaina snuck out of her room, so he burns the room along with Sunaina. Kumud manages to save Sunaina and Sunaina’s existence is revealed to the rest of the family.
Naresh is still afraid of Sunaina’s secret coming out to the world and ruining his status. He decides to sell Sunaina to a transgender goon named Maharani. Maharani tries to kill Sunaina but she is saved by Naman. Sunaina and Naman confess their love for each other and get married at the temple. Pankaja is heartbroken and vows to take revenge against Sunaina. Ramola joins hands with Pankaja to ruin Sunaina’s life.
Kumud and Naresh are worried from the marriage and try to separate Sunaina and Naman. However, against all odds, Sunaina and Naman officially get married. On Sunaina’s wedding night, Kumud reveals the secret that Sunaina is a Kinnar, and that is why Kumud hid her from the world because the society would not have accepted her. Pankaja and Ramola learn about Sunaina’s truth and decide to use it to seek revenge against Sunaina.
Sunaina gets into an accident, where the doctor exposes Sunaina's truth to Naman. Naman is shocked to find out this truth, and thus Naman starts to hate her.

Meanwhile, Sunaina decides to leave everyone behind so they can live their life without her. She leaves behind a letter and leaves the house.

Simran ends up in Munger to avoid the MLA’s son and local goon, Jaswinder, who is hellbent on marrying her and had even kidnapped her. Naman mistakes Simran to be Sunaina, and Simran decides to play along to avoid Jaswinder.
Simran pretends to have lost her memory and comes back with Naman to Sunaina’s house. Besides Naman, Shivya and Kumud, everyone suspects her to be fake because of her Punjabi dialect, attitude and behavior.

However, the DNA report comes out positive, and Simran kicks Jaswinder out of the house. Amidst all this, Simran has fallen in love with Naman, who is now sure that Simran is Sunaina.
Simran questions Kumud about the DNA report, to which Kumud reveals that she gave birth to twins, Simran, a girl, and Sunaina, a kinnar. Naresh wanted a son so Kumud gives Simran up for an adoption, but keeps Sunaina as no one would want to adopt a kinnar. Unfortunately, Simran’s entire adoptive family die in a car crash, and Kumud never reveals the truth to anyone.

Goons arrive at the house and try to shoot Simran. Afraid of losing another daughter, Kumud reveals Simran’s truth. Naman is shocked to learn that Simran has been lying to him. Simran makes the goons admit that Rajkumari had hired them. However, Rajkumari turns the tables and acts as if she did it for the family’s sake.
Naman starts to hate Simran for being a fraud and trying to take Sunaina’s place. Ramola takes advantage of this and tries to get Pankaja married to Naman.
Meanwhile, Naresh is mad at Kumud for hiding the truth about Simran. He breaks all relationship between them. Simran promises Kumud that she will make Naresh realize his mistakes.
Shockingly, Pravesh supports Simran and Kumud. Pravesh encourages Naresh to accept Simran as his daughter because blood is blood. Pravesh also asks Ramola to stop hating Kumud and Simran. Surprisingly, Ramola accepts that she has sinned a lot and agrees to reform her ways.
On the other hand, Shivya tries to reform Pankaja. Shivya tells Pankaja that she isn’t in love with Naman, but it’s her selfish want. Pankaja realizes that Shivya is telling the truth and decides to move on.
Simran confesses her love to Naman, which Naman also reciprocates. Naman admits that Simran reminds him of Sunaina. Naman proposes to Simran in front of the whole family.
