Ronak meets a girl named Heer, who is actually Daljeet's daughter. (Daljeet had married another girl after Sahiba's marriage to Fateh). Jeet and Heer have many fights. Soon, Heer and Ronak fall in love with each other and they convince their families to agree to their marriage. Jeet gets hurt when he finds out about Heer and Ronak's marriage and decides to leave the house but Sahiba tries to stop him.
