As their wedding concluded, a group of men gate crash the wedding and claim that Piyush is the prince of Bhurangarh and is needed back home. Nikki, who was unaware of Piyush having a family questions him to which he explains that his family is very complicated. Nikki thinks nothing of it as she has longed for a family and convinces Piyush to drop their plan of a honeymoon and meet his family instead. Hesitant, Piyush agrees and they leave for Bhurangarh. Then when they reach Bhurangarh Nikki meets Piyush family.Upon arrival, Nikki feels a weird and different aura around her, but is happy that Piyush's family accepts her. It is then revealed that Piyush's family worships a satanic force, Maalik, to protect everyone from his wrath. Under the pretext of traditional wedding rituals, Nikki is made to perform satanic rituals Shaitani Rasmein. When Nikki tries to escape, Piyush stops her and locks her in their bedroom. When she questions him about the rituals, he does not give her a straight answer, infuriating her, but pleads with her to cooperate so that they leave sooner. Amidst all this, Nikki finds out that Piyush was married before, but his late wife, Anjali, died 3 months after their marriage.
Back in Goa, Nikki's governess, Sister Anita, is brutally killed by Kapalika, Maalik's assistant and one sided lover, using black magic, after she tries contacting Nikki, but in vain. Terrified of the rituals, Nikki refuses to perform them but eventually gives in. Veronica, Nikki's childhood friend from Goa, arrives in Bhurangarh in search of Nikki and reveals Anita's death. Out of jealousy, Veronica decides to separate Piyush and Nikki, as she believes Piyush was meant to be with her. Her schemes fail and ends up killed by Kapalika, as a sacrifice for Maalik, who also kills Aarohi's unborn child.
After witnessing Aarohi’s miscarriage and Veronica’s death, to protect the family, Nikki continues performing the satanic rituals, empowering Maalik. After Nikki completes an engraving ritual, Maalik grows more powerful and declares her the Chosen One who will be performing all 13 Shaitani Rasmein on every new moon, to regain all his body parts. This makes Kapalika jealous as she had loved Maalik for centuries. As a reward, Maalik has Kapalika return Aarohi’s child, while her mother tells Nikki about Maalik and how Aarohi's behavior had changed after her marriage. Kapalika tells the family members to make the Shaitani Bhog for Maalik and send it with a maid, Rachna, as she was born in Shatbeeja Nakshatra, making her the only one who can offer the Bhog to Maalik. Nikki follows Rachna as she goes to meet Maalik. Kapalika ambushes a defenceless Nikki but Nikki fights her with divine energy, which she is unaware of.
Rachna goes missing due to which Maalik becomes angry and punishes the villagers. Soon enough, Rachna is found and brought back by Saudamini, a researcher who wants to know more about Maalik and intends to become queen and rule Bhurangarh.
Nikki finds a book about Maalik named Malik Puraan where Maalik's stories have been written. She tries to open it but in vain, so she and Piyush visit a sage who tells them about Bhurangarh's history with Maalik, meanwhile Saudamini learns of the same after opening the book. In flashbacks, it is revealed that centuries ago, Piyush's ancestor, Vishwajeet Singh Gehlot, a poor farmer, was traveling to the temple of his family deity to pray for the livelihood of his family. During his journey, he falls into a pit where he discovers hidden treasure. Kapalika arrives to tell him the treasure can only be his if he swears to worships Maalik and have his wife and all generations of daughters-in-law perform the Shaitani Rasmein. Driven by greed, Vishwajeet reluctantly agrees and swears with a blood pact. Upon his return, he shares his encounter with his family, but his wife rebukes him and has him repent before their goddess. During this, Kapalika appears and states that Vishwajeet has betrayed Maalik and as punishment, she kills his daughter. After this incident, Vishwajeet, along with his wife and son make a deity of Maalik and replace the goddess with his statue, worshiping him.
In the present, Kapalika visits Kaalmukhi, an astrologer, and has him make Nikki's horoscope, to find out more about her. She shockingly discovers that Nikki was born with divine energy in Shatbeeja Nakshatra. Kapalika goes into Nikki's past and discovers that Baaldevi, a goddess, left Nikki in an orphanage and tells Kapalika that she will bring an end to her and Maalik's atrocities. Kaalmukhi suggests that he and Kapalika inform Maalik, but she kills him instead. Nikki goes to a deserted place and finds a Trident and Goddess Statue and takes it back to the palace. The next day, after formulating a plan, Nikki chants Hanuman Chalisa in the palace, through a microphone, summoning Kapalika, whom Nikki challenges. Knowing that her blood could gravely harm Kapalika, after an intense battle, Nikki stabs herself and Kapalika with the trident and dies. Kapalika recognizes Nikki as Swarnaprabha and goes to Maalik to inform him. Before revealing the truth of Nikki's identity, Kapalika is turned into stone by Maalik as he found out about Kapalika killing Kaalmukhi from his loyal servant.
Upon returning back to life, thanks to Baaldevi, Nikki convinces the entire family to leave Bhurangarh, along with their subjects and servants. This plan is however, sabotaged by Saudamini, who informs Maalik about the plan. In a fit of rage, Maalik terrorises them, forcing Nikki to summon Chhaya, a daayan, who is later revealed to be Maalik's elder sister who was captured by him. Chhaya arrives in Bhurangarh and tortures the Gehlot family and sends Nikki to steal Daakini's heart for Maalik's Shaitani Rasmein which is a success. Soon enough, Chhaya discovers Nikki has a protective shield implanted by Baaldevi and forces Nikki to commit a sin, which removes the protective shield. This gives Chhaya the leverage of drinking Nikki's blood to become more powerful. Nikki formulates a plan with Sumitra and Aarohi to kill Chhaya. Nikki finds out from Baaldevi, that a good daayan can kill Chhaya. They go to Bahuon Ki Baadi where all the deceased Gehlot daughters-in-law stay after death as they have not attained salvation by Maalik. They help Nikki find out about Maya Daayan, Chhaya's twin sister who was killed by Chhaya, had her soul put in a bottle and buried. Nikki, Piyush, and Sumitra arrange for a ritual to awaken Maya's soul. With Maya's soul in Nikki's body, Chhaya is finally defeated. After this, Nikki awakens back in the palace and seems to have been possessed by a witch. Later, it is revealed that she was only pretending, with Sumitra's help. Under the pretense of performing the second ritual of the 13 Shaitani Rasmein, Nikki has to bring Betal's skeleton.
Nikki joins hands with Sumitra and Piyush and finds a magical Paash which can be activated by whipping a person 100 times. Piyush volunteers to be whipped 100 times to activate the paash. Nikki finds Janjaal, a magical Betal, and defeats him. He takes her to the place where the Betal's skeleton was kept with a sword stuck on it. Nikki pulls the sword after which Betal recognizes her as Swarnaprabha and bows to her and agrees to be his servant. The entire family realizes the truth and supports Nikki's plan. On the day of the ritual, Nikki bombs the Purani Haveli to kill Maalik, which fails miserably as Maalik is immortal, unbeknownst to them. Livid, Maalik retaliates by punishing all of them by sending Kichkandi, who possesses Nikki, and punishes the Gehlot family. Saudamini tells Maalik about her wish to rule Bhurangarh after which he tells her that she should meditate to Maha Shaitan to give her soul which she does successfully. Kichkandi kills Aarohi after taking her baby before returning to the spirit realm. Nikki holds onto Kichkandi's feet and is transported with her. With the help of a sage, Piyush brings Nikki and the baby back, while Aarohi comes back to life. The baby turns out to be Shaitan's baby, who torments the family, but Nikki returns the baby to Kichkandi, where the Gehlot family learns about Nikki's connection to Baaldevi as they meet her. Maalik announces Saudamini as the queen of Bhurangarh and gives her a powerful glove. During her coronation, Inspector Yashwant Sinha, arrives in the palace searching for Saudamini who is revealed to be a runaway criminal. Vikram refuses to tell him as it would be inviting Maalik's wrath.
Baaldevi sends Nikki into the past with a warning not to change any event in the past as it would affect the present. Nikki hopes to find Maalik's weakness and stop him from becoming immortal and meets Piyush's past life, Kadam, a warrior, who was sent by Akaal Shatru alias Maalik, to capture Maharani Swarnaprabha, who is Nikki’s past life. Nikki decides to make Swarnaprabha and Kadam fall in love, which she succeeds and Kadam betrays Akaal Shatru. Swarnaprabha and Kadam attempt to marry, but Akaal Shatru attacks Divyanchal, kidnaps Kadam, and demands Swarnaprabha to make him immortal in return for Kadam's freedom, while Nikki tries to stop Swarnaprabha. Nikki returns to the present and vows to stop Akaal Shatru from becoming Maalik.
Nikki realizes that she might lose her life killing Akaal Shatru, so she bids goodbye to her family and Piyush without informing them of her possible death. She returns to the past with Saudamini's glove and goes to Akaal Shatru's palace, posing as Swarnaprabha while the real Swarnaprabha gets the Swarnpustika and is on her way to his palace to make him immortal. Saudamini informs Maalik about Nikki's journey to the past and he becomes angry. Yashwant catches Saudamini but Maalik stops him and his team as he is about to kill the Gehlots, but is suddenly struck down. In the past, Nikki and Akaal Shatru kill one another, resulting in both Nikki and Maalik's deaths in the present. The entire family rejoices on Maalik's death and Saudamini gets arrested.
When Piyush goes to Nikki, he realizes that she has died fighting Akaal Shatru. Piyush summons Baaldevi and asks her to send him to the past to stop Nikki. Baaldevi agrees and sends him to the past. Piyush meets Nikki and tells her he knows about the future and has come to the past to stop her. They both formulate a plan to free Kadam. Swarnaprabha reaches Akaal Shatru's palace and begins the ritual of making him immortal. Kadam reaches there and Swarnaprabha stops the ritual. Nikki requests her not to make Akaal Shatru immortal by telling her about Maalik's cruel terror. Swarnaprabha then decides to kill Akaal Shatru. While Swarnaprabha and Akaal Shatru are having a battle, Nikki and Piyush open the time passage. As they jump in, Akaal Shatru's soul leaves his body in a hurry, following Nikki and Piyush to the present. Maalik's body gets reduced to ashes and his symbol disappears from Nikki, Sumitra, and Aarohi's hands, and the Gehlot daughters-in-law from Bahuon Ki Baadi attain salvation. Vikram declares to the subjects that Bhurangarh is free from Maalik's slavery and are exhumed from performing any rituals. He declares Nikki and Piyush as his heirs and throws a party in the palace. Nikki installs Lord Ganesh's idol in the palace and Vikram announces that Nikki and Piyush will be married with proper rituals. Later, Piyush reaches the Purani Haveli, and reveals his true colors. He summons Maha Shaitan and in flashbacks, it is revealed that from Chhaya's arrival and defeat, Nikki pretending to be possessed, Kichkandi’s punishment, to Baaldevi sending Nikki to the past was his entire plan. To prevent Baaldevi from helping Nikki in anyway, Maalik imprisons her in the Purani Haveli.
In the guise of Piyush, Maalik starts making Nikki unknowingly perform the Shaitani Rasmein once again, while strange things keep occurring in Bhurangarh and the villagers fear that Maalik has returned, but Nikki refuses to believe that. Maalik summons a Nazariya Chudail and Kapalika's sister, Netra, who attacks the Gehlots and turns them against Nikki. The Gehlots, especially Vikram, forces Nikki to perform Shaitani Rasmein, injuring her in the process. Maalik prepares a new body for himself as Piyush's body is holy, therefore rejecting Maalik's evil spirit. With the help of the family priestess, Sugna Mai, Nikki hatches a plan to blind Netra, which backfires miserably as Nikki unintentionally blinds herself instead.
After agreeing to perform the next Shaitani Rasmein, Nikki soon regains her eyesight, where she has to bring Narmund Pisachini's favorite Kapaal for Maalik. Dressed as a bride, Nikki goes to Pisachini's cave after defeating the evil spirits along the way. She smartly gets Mayuraditya's Kapaal and returns to Ghelot Haveli. She then finds out that Maalik's soul has possessed Piyush's body. Maalik plans to use the Kapaal to form a new body vessel for him and sacrifice Piyush's body. At the Puraani Haveli, Nikki finds Baldevi who informs her that Piyush's soul is in Narklok. Upon hearing this, Nikki goes on a mission to reach Narklok and save Piyush. Nikki seeks help from Mashaan Pret and drives out Akaal Shatru's soul from Piyush's body and Piyush's soul returns to his body. Mashaan Pret takes Akaal Shatru's soul to Narklok but Akaal Shatru kills Mashaan Pret instead. Netra performs a ritual in which Akaalshatru's soul enters a body and becomes Maalik again. Maalik kills Pratik as retribution and Aarohi turns against Nikki. Maalik makes Nikki perform 5 new rituals so that Nikki can gain her powers and become Swarnaprabha and she would make him immortal with the help of Arth Swarn Pustika. Maalik asks Nikki to bring the Jeevan Ras from Chandrabhediya. She was almost successful but the people ask the Ras to break the curse of Chandrabhediya. With no ways left, Nikki agrees to give the Ras. She hears a mysterious voice coming from a cave and follows that. An old women addresses Nikii as Swarnaprabha and tells her that Swarnaprabha has left something for her her. Old lady hands over a shiny golden piece to Nikki and tells her that she is indeed Swarnaprabha. Here, in Bhurangarh, maalik performs some rituals to enhance his skills and somehow Vikram gets to know that Maalik is not immortal now. He attacks on Maalik but in vain. Nikki returns to the palace and tells Maalik that she failed. But Maalik retrieves the Ras and becomes invinsible. He cuts off Vikram's arms and punishes him for betrayal.Nikki feels helpless and in anger tells that she isn'nt swarnaprabha.

She always gave Piyush poison in the name of medicine. As time times passes, Nikki brings Shakchunni's Mothi and Daamori's Hasth to Maalik making him more demonic.
