Nakul Kaushik continues his steady relationship with Renee, a colleague. The relationship is favored by Renee's mother Sangeeta, who approves of the couple. Durga, Nakul's grandmother, frequently quarrels with Priyamvada and tries to dominate family dynamics, setting up ongoing tensions. The stage is set for the couple's future amid mixed support and scrutiny.

Priyamvada realizes she is pregnant after 19 weeks, and she believes abortion would be sinful and refuses to terminate the pregnancy. Jeetu announces the pregnancy to the family, shocking the others. The two senior Kaushik brothers become embarrassed and start avoiding their parents, friends, and society as the news spreads.

The pregnancy becomes a viral topic among family, friends, and society, and the Kaushik family is mocked for the late pregnancy. Nakul begins to withdraw from Renee as the scrutiny intensifies. The mounting embarrassment strains relationships and tests the family's unity.

Nakul finds it difficult to be intimate with Renee as Priyamvada's pregnancy lingers on his mind. The couple's intimacy is strained as the family stigma weighs on him. Renee tries to support him, hoping to help him move past the issue.

Embarrassed by the gossip, Nakul and Gullar refuse to attend their cousin's wedding in Meerut. Jeetu and Priyamvada decide to go anyway, accompanied by Durga, leaving the male/female rift unresolved at home. The wedding scene intensifies the family's public scrutiny and emotional strain.

Nakul is unable to connect physically with Renee while Priyamvada's pregnancy weighs on his mind. Renee makes efforts to help him cope, emphasizing emotional closeness over physical intimacy. Their bond begins to strain under the external pressures.

At a party at Renee's residence, Sangeeta learns of Priyamvada's pregnancy and speaks ill of the Kaushiks. Nakul overhears the remarks and defends his mother and family, which creates a rift with Renee. The moment also makes him realize his mistreatment of his parents.

Back at the Meerut wedding, Jeetu's elder sister-in-law and sister ridicule Priyamvada for her late pregnancy. Durga unexpectedly defends Priyamvada, chastising the others for their selfishness. The mood shifts as the family shows solidarity in contrast to public criticism.

Gullar reveals to Nakul that he was beaten at school for standing up to his mother. The brothers bond over their shared experiences and newfound empathy. This moment marks a turning point in their relationship.

Nakul goes to the school the next day and stands up for Gullar, slapping the boy who had bullied him thrice. He then confronts his own friends, delivering a firm reply to taunts and prejudice. The act signals his willingness to protect family and stand up for himself.

When Jeetu, Priyamvada, and Durga return from the wedding, the family reconciles their differences. The previously strained relationships begin to heal as they acknowledge their mutual love and duty. This marks a turning point toward harmony.

Priyamvada encourages Nakul to mend his relationship with Renee and Sangeeta, recognizing the importance of unity in the family and their future together. Nakul accepts the critique and resolves to make amends. The couple begins to rebuild trust with key family members.

Preparations for the baby shower are underway when Priyamvada goes into labor. She is rushed to the hospital where the medical team confirms the arrival of a baby girl. The whole family shares in the anticipation and relief of a safe delivery.

Following the delivery, the doctors announce the birth of a baby girl, and the family erupts in joy. The newborn strengthens family bonds and gives new meaning to their unity after a period of strain. The parents bask in the happiness of their daughter's arrival.

Fifteen months later, Nakul and Renee get engaged in the presence of their families, including Nakul's new baby sister. The milestone signals lasting commitment and family support for the couple. The extended Kaushik clan celebrates the promising path ahead.
