When Brijraj and Ranbir learn of this relationship they object and strive to prevent their niece from marrying Ajay. They threaten her and she has to give false witness that puts Ajay behind bars and has his sister's in-laws disown her, all this leads to their mother's demise. Ajay blames it on Manorama but later learns the truth and eventually retaliates by killing her uncles.
