Plot
[edit]State of being childless haunts Sriram and Sita, a couple with trustworthy characters. After Sriram's desperate father pursues him and Sita to visit a doctor for the child, they reluctantly visit Dr. Amaram. Shockingly, Sriram perceives that Sita is childless but lies to the latter and his father that he has shortcomings rather. Eventually, Sriram's father discovers the truth and asks him to marry for a second time. To escape temporarily, Sriram decides to marry once he returns after his business trip from Nepal to which Sriram's father agrees and the whole scenario is kept unaware to Sita. In Nepal, Sriram comes across Manisha and due to the mistake of his friend Giri, Sriram ends up marrying her.
After learning that Sriram is married, Manisha becomes sad but comes to terms with it and lies to the monks of her religion that she left her husband and he has no fault. As per traditions, Manisha is to be punished by shaving her head and she had to leave the rest of her life as a widow while Sriram is asked to leave the place. However, he learns about Manisha's impending punishment, regrets it, and realizes that she truly loves him. He accepts her and returns to India in hope of telling his father, the truth but to his surprise, Sriram's father changes his mind as he realized that no one could fulfill the role of daughter-in-law as Sita has been doing and they hide the truth. After three months, Sriram learns that Manisha is pregnant with his child and brings her to India to stay in Giri's house. She gives birth to a boy but Sriram and Manisha mutually decide to lie that the boy is an orphan so that he could be adopted by Sriram and Sita and raised with all the riches.
After Sita adopts Manisha's son, Manisha leaves the place in sorrow without informing Sriram. As the infant becomes a child, Sriram's father learns of Manisha and brings her to India. He pursues Sriram to give her a good life and live together happily with Sita and Manisha but Sriram is skeptical. Due to a series of events, Manisha ends up being employed as a maid in Sita and Sriram's home and Sita assumes that Manisha's husband eloped. Envying Manisha's growing closeness to Sriram, his father, and the child, Sita decides to get her married off but Sriram chases the groom out of the house during a formal meeting and the truth comes out. Though Giri explains the situation, Sita feels deceived and repeatedly accuses Sriram and Manisha. Enraged, Sriram's father reveals that Sriram has no shortcomings and she is infertile instead and also reveals that the child is Manisha's son, whom she sacrificed for Sita. Sita realizes her mistake and stops Manisha from leaving the house, who reluctantly accepts after her son addresses her as a mother. Giri and Sriram's father happily welcomes the trio home.
