Vivan is a successful RJ on a popular radio channel in Mumbai. He has acquired everything in life, but his marriage is unsuccessful. He is going through a divorce even though he does not want it because his wife thinks they are incompatible, and she is unhappy. In their hearts, Vivan and Pooja don't want the divorce, but the fast pace of life and busy schedules interfere with her emotional balance.
Enters Shanaya, who is like a ray of sunshine in Vivan's insipid life. Initially, he is reluctant to get close to Shanaya but slowly finds himself happy to be around her. However, we see that his ex, Pooja, wants Vivan back in her life. When she lets him know that she wants him back, he interrupts her and lets her know that he wants to be with Shanaya. Pooja can also sense his love for Shanaya. She becomes the catalyst in his realization that he, in fact, loves Shanaya. Vivan also tries to get close to Shanaya's family. Although Pooja still has a soft spot for Vivan and cares for him, she realizes that he wants to spend his life with Shanaya.
Who will eventually reign in his heart? Will he take the step to make his vows with Shanaya?
