Summary[edit]
Joba is a kind-hearted girl and also a maid in Sengupta family. Senguptas' youngest son, Param Sengupta returns to Kolkata and is forced to marry Joba to save her life. He encourages Joba to complete her studies and fulfil her dream of becoming a private-practicing lawyer. Senguptas' eldest daughter-in-law, Tandra sees Joba as mere a servent and often tortures her. Eventually, Param and Joba develop feelings for each other. Tandra, Gouri, Palak and Tandra's mother join hands to plot against Joba.
Tandra's attempts make Tanna mute and Joba is jailed for the same. She fakes her pregnancy to compete with pregnant Joba. Joba gives birth to a son, who is stolen by Tandra. Joba is told that her son is born dead. Tandra adopts the new-born daughter of a slum-dweller, Minoti and claims her as her daughter. Further, she supplies Param with memory-losing drugs while Joba is taken back to jail.
5 years later[edit]
Joba is released and returns to the Senguptas'. She helps Param to regain his memory. Tanna gets back his speech and proves Joba's innocence. Palak apologizes to Joba for all her taunts. Joba and Param adopt a orphan named Supari, who is actually their long-lost son. Joba learns that her son is alive and Tandra's daughter, Anu is being Minoti's child. Tandra acts as paralyzed to escape jail punishment and secretly contacts with Sanjay and her mother. Joba and Param learn that Supari is their own son. Later, their daughter, Koyel is born. Supari is paralyzed due to interior damage and needs to be treated abroad.
4 years later[edit]
Supari has been renamed as Sarthak. Joba, Param and Sarthak travel to America, leaving Koyel in care of the other Sengupta family members. Tandra poisons Koyel's mind against her parents, especially Joba for prioritizing Sarthak than Koyel.

Joba tries to change Koyel's behavior and eventually wins her heart. The Senguptas are now assisted by a girl Itu, who is very close to Koyel and Joba. Tinni gets married to a society entrepreneur Soheli's son Adi. Senguptas' visit to Itu's village, "Phultuli" where Sarthak is forced to marry Itu.

Rinki and Soheli try to create problems among Sarthak and Itu, but in vain. Rinky gets married with Tanna. Later, Koyel falls ill and needs to have a bone marrow transplant.
