Plot

The story revolves between two women, Vagdhevi and Saraswathi. Vagdhevi is a business entrepreneur, who is looking for an educated girl for her son Rahul. Saraswathi is an illiterate woman with a kind and good heart. Saraswati parents gave Vagdhevi their jewellery to start a school since she was staying at a village while educated. After Vagdhevi and her family have left the village Uma (Saraswati's mother) went to labour early because of the stress of being homeless after Arun Prasad's father kicked them out of his house. Jaghanadham (Saraswati's father) called Arun to come with his wife Vagdhevi to the hospital since he could not understand what the doctors are saying because he is illiterate but they didn't go because there was an inspection in Vagdhevi's school. Jaghanadham took wrong medicines to the hospital which eventually were the cause of Uma's death and left her child behind Chirni whose brain was underdeveloped. After the last rites of Uma, Jaghanadham left to Dubai to look for a job and left his two children with his brother in law. Saraswati took care of her sister like her own child while her Aunt abuses her because their father does not support them financially.

After some years

Rahul visit his grandfather after his mother Vagdhevi forbade him wanting his grandfather's land to start a business. Rahul befriends Saraswati. Seeing how Rahul and Saraswathi get along Rahul's grandfather encourages them to get married but Rahul refuses because he wants to marry educated women. Rahul eventually marries Saraswathi as it was the only way to make his dying grandfather to drink his medicines as he was having a heart attack. The land was shared between Rahul and Saraswati.

After a series of consequences, Rahul marries Saraswathi. He hides the truth from Vagdhevi and introduces her as maid named as Vani. Rahul educates her to get a good impression from Vagdhevi. Finally Vagdhevi accepts her as daughter-in-law. [3]
