His life is anchored by his best friend and business associate, Prachi (Sayantika Banerjee). Life is all about fun, work and girls for him until one day when his car bumps into Esha's cycle. Aditya is instantly enamored by the pretty and innocent girl who seems to have no interest in the flirty, rich bachelor. He gives in to his ego by giving Esha (Nusrat Jahan) a job in his resort even though she can't work in the second shift. As times goes by, Aditya starts sharing his deepest thoughts with Esha. She sees the simple, lovable man behind the successful persona who loves the food made by his aunt. Unwittingly, she loses her heart to this flirty man who confesses to be commitment phobic. These three characters become the best of buddies. Prachi sees the growing chemistry between these two and she keeps her love for Aditya hidden inside her. Turbulence occurs when Esha's past crops in and misleads their lives in different direction. And her past which involves Akash, her semi-dead fiancé. He used to love an orphan Esha unconditionally, which Aditya believes he himself isn't capable of. Akash met with an accident while trying to save Esha. Esha thinks she is responsible for Akash's condition as she was the one who was driving when the accident took place. When Aditya and Esha's relationship was hidden, Esha gives Aditya a condition that she will spend 2 hours a day with Akash and her left 22 hours belongs to Aditya. Esha did not want Aditya to meet Akash at any cost. But doubt in his mind leads him to the hospital where Akash takes his last breath. After a prolonged silent treatment by Esha, Aditya runs to her home. Not finding her there, he meets her in a temple and forces her to speak up. And Esha leaves with anger blaming him for Akash's death. Hopeless in love, Esha prepares for the death ceremony. Surprisingly, Akash's mother invites Aditya, thanking him for the peaceful death of Akash and tells them to get married since Aditya is the only one who can love Esha unconditionally. After successfully getting married, Aditya and Esha have a girl child, Arushi but soon they meet a car accident.
