Kapoor, their daughter Roshni, and son Gaurav. One fateful day, as Gaurav returns from a bank, a gang led by Shiva attacks him, but Rohit Malhotra [Akshaye Khanna] steps in to save the day. Impressed by Rohit’s courage and loyalty, Gaurav hires him at his firm, and the two men become inseparable friends who share late-night talks, business advice, and a bond built on trust. As their partnership deepens, both men find themselves drawn to the same woman, Shweta Sharma [Madhuri Dixit], a bright and compassionate figure who embodies warmth and grace.
