Ashwini finds out that Asha is in love with Vikas, and arranges an accident for Vikas. Vikas survives the accident, but loses his eyesight. After this incident, Vikas does not want to burden himself on Asha, and strikes up a new friendship with Dr. Anjali (Simi Grewal). Meanwhile, Ashwini informs Asha that Vikas has died in the accident. Asha does not have any living hope after listening to the news of Vikas's death. Ashwini can not have that and goes Vikas and requests that he show Asha that he does not love her any more so that she will marry Ashwini. Vikas agrees and shows his affair with Dr. Anjali. Asha marries Ashwini but refuses to live with him in one room.
