Nineteen years after fulfilling their sacred vow, Bhakti (Supriya Pilgaonkar) and Vacky (Sachin) are living a peaceful life with their daughter Shraddha (Hemal Ingle). Every year, they follow a cherished family tradition of immersing a Ganesh idol on the shores of Ganpatipule. Shraddha, now deeply in love with Lamby (Swapnil Joshi), has her relationship blessed by her parents. Bhakti and Vacky, wanting to include Lamby in their family customs, ask him to partake in the yearly Ganesh idol immersion. However, Lamby, an atheist, refuses, by leaving Bhakti and Vacky heartbroken. This decision causes tension, with Shraddha contemplating ending their relationship. But unexpected events compel Lamby to reconsider his stance.
As tensions ease, Shraddha reveals that she, like her mother, had made a vow. This vow requires Lamby to make a pilgrimage to Ganpatipule temple, but under the shocking condition that he must go unclothed. As this revelation unfolds, the situation spirals into chaos during their train journey. Unbeknownst to them, Sabu Kaalia (Vaibhav Mangle), the notorious brother of Babu Kaalia, and his gang are tracking their every move, as they have hidden valuable diamonds inside their Ganesh idol.
