Ruhana is a businesswoman handling the family business. Her father gets an alliance for her, whose name is Vineet. He's a Widower and is a father to a boy.
Ruhana is shocked but melts when the boy calls her "Maa" and she agrees for the marriage for...
The morning at Singhania House is quite chaotic. The little boy, Veer, is angry at his dad and uncle. He complains about the same thing to his grandma, who manages to convince him. His uncle, Sachin, also promises him that he will take him to the park in the evening. Little Veer gets happy, and he lets his dad and uncle go to the office. Though he is little, he understands that work is important.
Gautami serves breakfast and tea to his sons, Sachin and Vineet, and begins to feed Veer. She looks at her elder son hopefully and tells him that she wants to talk to him. Vineet looks at his mother and sighs deeply.

"Maa, mujhe tumse koi baat nahi karni hain." He speaks rudely.
"Papa, no gussa! Dadi toh pyar se bol rahi hain." Little Veer says this while looking at his dad.
"Veer, aap chup rahiye. Jaake homework finish kariye. Main Dadi se baat kar raha hoon na!" Vineet scolds his son.
"Vineet, ye kya tareeka hain Veer se baat karne ka? Vo bacha hai! Usse toh thik se, pyaar se baat karni chahiye." Gautami scolds her son.
"Maa, please. Mujhe is baare mein koi baat nahi karti. Meir zindagi mein Mahi ki jagah koi nahi le sakta. Aap ache se jaanti hain na is baat ko! Phir kyun wahi sab baatein kar rahi hain. Main thik hoon. Aur main Veer ko bhi sambhal sakta hoon." Vineet says it aloud, scolding his mom.
"Vineet, shant! Main toh bas tere aur Veer ki bhalai ke liye kaha. 3 saal ho chuke hain, beta. Main jaanti hoon, tu Mahika se bahut pyaar karta hain, hum sab usse pyaar karte hain. Wo is parivaar ki bahu thi, lekin ab aage badhne ka waqt hain, beta. Aur Veer ke baare mein soch! Usey maa ki zaroorat hai, Vineet." Gautami tries to convince his elder son.
"Maa, please! Main aapse keh chuka hoon na ki meri zindagi mein Mahi ki jagah koi nahi le sakta. Aur mujhe kisi aur se koi baat nahi karni hai. Aur aap ye baat jitni jaldi samajh lo, utna acha hai." Vineet replies rudely and leaves for the office.
Gautami sighs, and so does Sachin. Veer makes a face; he didn't like his father shouting at his grandma. He looks at his uncle and grandma and comments on his father.
"Papa ne badly behave kia. Dadi, aapne unko daanta kyun nahi?" Veer asks softly.
"Beta, aisa nahi kehte. Wo pareshan hai isliye." Gautami tries to convince the little boy.
"Noo, unhone galat bola. Mujhe bhi mumma ki yaad aati hain, lekin unke paas time hi nahi hai." Veer complains.
"Wo kabhi bhi kuch bhi bolte rehte hain. Veer ko acha nahi lagta. Wo Chachu ko bhi daantte hain." He says.
Sachin sighs and cups the boy's face in his hands. He wants to convince him that his father loves him immensely and cares for him as well.
"Veer, aisa nahi kehte. Papa aapse bahut pyaar karte hain, wo mujhse aur Dadi ko bhi pyar karte hain. Lekin abhi vo pareshan hai na isliye ye hua. Main baat karunga unse." Sachin tries to convince the little boy.
"Okay, par Veer ko bhi Mumma chahiye." He says it innocently, and the mother and son glance at each other.
Gautami pulls Veer into a hug. She expected such an outburst from the little boy. Sachin smears Veer's head and pulls both his mother and nephew close to himself. He knows that they need him at the same time. He convinces Gautami that he will talk to Vineet and then leaves for the office.

Malhotra Mansion
Ruhana is in her room. She is getting ready for the day. She dresses up and is making her hair. Meanwhile, there's a knock on the door. She looks through the mirror and finds his brother standing at the door. She calls him in, and Rajeev enters the room. She finishes tying the bun and looks at her brother, who is now sitting on the bed.
"Bhai, aap ready nahi hue?" She asks him.
"Mujhe tujhse baat karni thi. Socha pehle wo kar loon." Rajeev says this calmly while looking at his sister.
"Kya baat hai, bhai? Itne serious kyun ho?" Ruhana asks as she continues packing her things in her favourite handbag.
"Wo maine tujhe chidhaya aur phir Maa ne rishtey ki baat ki. Maine dekha ki tum pareshan ho gayi thi." He says while keeping his point in front of his sister.
"Bhai, hamari teasing toh common hai na. Aisa kuch nahi hai." Ruhana says, though, that she got a little disturbed when her parents mentioned the wedding.
"Tu mujhe khul ke bol sakti hain. Sach kahun, toh agar Ma aur Dad ne kisi ko chuna hain toh milne mein koi burai nahi hai." He says it softly, reading her emotions.
"I know, bhai. Waise bhi Papa aur Mumma ka koi decision galat nahi hoga na. Wo toh hamesha hum dono ke liye hi sochenge. Lekin shadi! Honestly, mujhe abhi shadi nahi karni. Aap toh jaante ho na ki mujhe business startup pe work karna hai." Ruhana looks at Rajeev, and he nods his head affirmatively.
"Main jaanta hoon. Tujhe yahi samjhaane aaya hoon ki agar Ma ya Dad koi baat kare toh unhe mana mat karna. Main hoon na, agar tu mana karegi toh main mom aur dad ko convince kar lunga. Teri marzi ke khilaf hum teri shadi thodi karenge." He says this while trying to convince her.
Ruhana says nothing but hugs her brother. She knows he might tease her, but he loves her the most. If he could break his piggy bank for her, then he could fight with their parents for her happiness. If she tells him that she loves someone, Rajeev will happily convince their parents and get her married. She knows she can trust her brother.
Rajeev smears his head. His assumption was right; she'd been upset with the marriage thing. But now things seem fine. Ruhana breaks the hug and holds his hand.
"Thanks, bhai. You know you're the best!" she says, kissing his cheek before hugging him again.
Naina and Anoop watch them from outside the door. They share a glance, and they know that the sibling duo will always help each other and ease out all the pain that they hold within themselves. Anoop embraces Naina in his arms, only hoping that things will go well with their family.
