He comes across Sheetal Oberoi (former Miss Universe Yukhta Mookhey), owner of a large group of companies who offers him a job and a large salary. Slowly their working relationship turns to friendship and then love. Until in walks Prem, who with his kindness and love wins over Sheetal's affections, leaving Sooraj smarting from the rejection. As the plot unravels, Sooraj comes to know that his meeting with Sheetal was not a coincidence after all. Something terrible had happened in the past that ties them together and has made Sheetal thirsty for revenge.
