In such a scenario, Aastha decides to defer getting married since there would be no one to take care of her father and youngest sister.

Aastha takes up a job at the Ranawat Hotel where her boss Shubh falls in love with her and asks her father for her hand in marriage.

Her first test is when she has to perform a dangerous ritual to protect the Ranawat family from a "curse" under the aegis of Shubh's grandfather at their ancestral palace.

Later that night, Aastha's sister Shilpa, who was travelling with the Ranawats is raped at their palace and suspicion falls on Shubh.

Eventually, it is revealed that the real culprit behind both Swayam and Shubh's murders is their own brother Saksham.
