Savita schemes to make it appear that Harsh had sex with Shweta to pressure him into marrying her, and his father wants them to marry. Janki has allies in Shekhar (Harsh's grandmother) and his sister-in-law. Harsh keeps Shweta from slapping Janki, remembering that she saved his life. Shweta tries to kill Harsh, and Janki comes home her father-in-law tries to stop her. Advised by Rangili (a friend), she refuses to sign divorce papers sent by her father-in-law and decides to save Harsh from Shweta and Savita. He remembers his love for Shweta (his old girlfriend), and Janki does not want to come between them at first. Harsh awakens with no memory of the past five years, and does not recognize Janki. Harsh needs a kidney transplant, and Janki donates one of her kidneys. They have an accident on the way, but both survive. Janki decides to celebrate their three-month anniversary with Harsh in Darbhanga, only telling Savita.
She wants to protect Harsh from his stepmother Savita, who is responsible for his mental instability and killed his grandfather to acquire his property for herself and her children (Rajesh, Shekhar and Roohi). Harsh receives a head injury, for which Janki is blamed. Janki becomes suspicious that someone in the family does not want Harsh to improve, despite their surface affection. Harsh and Janki want to stay together, however, and she consults a doctor to help him. Janki's brother learns about the situation, and wants Janki to return home. Despite their marriage's rocky start, however, Janki and Harsh become close. Harsh (her husband) is childlike, which annoys her. Janki realizes she has been tricked into marrying him by her in-laws, but hesitates to endanger her father's health by telling him. Not meeting the groom before their wedding night, she discovers that he is mentally challenged and is at an eight-year-old level. Janki agrees to an arranged marriage at the insistence of her father.
