Summary
The story is about a village Veerpur, which still practices female infanticide. Bhagwani Devi Sangwan a.k.a Ammaji (Meghna Malik), the Sarpanch of the village, forbids the birth of females by any of her daughter-in-laws or servants in her Haveli, or the woman of the village.
Sia (Natasha Sharma), with her sister and father, comes to live in Veerpur and raises her voice against Ammaji and her practices. To silence her, Ammaji uses her youngest son Raghav (Aditya Redij) to woo Sia and marry her, but he falls in love with her, and supports Sia against his mother.
Other women in the village who suffer due to Ammaji's rule, try to escape as soon as they find out they're pregnant, but Raghav and Sia begin to change the behaviour of the people and save a number of female infants. Sia later becomes the Sarpanch by winning votes from majority of the female population in Veerpur.
Soon, Ammaji's real daughter, Amba (Shikha Singh), enters and challenges her, before she realises Ammaji's own sons are conspiring against her, and unites with her mother. Ammaji turns Raghav and Sia out of the family for going against her, but brings them back when Sia is pregnant with twins, and later delivers two girls, in spite of Ammaji's attempts to terminate her pregnancy.
Meanwhile, in an attack by Ammaji's old enemy, Bhanupratap (Aman Verma), Sia dies while giving birth to her daughters Jahnvi and Dia, and Raghav is killed in a fire trying to save Jahnvi and Dia. The two sisters separate — Dia lives with Ammaji, and Jahnvi lives with Amba.
18 Years Later
The family are now living in Delhi, where Ammaji is well known and still brings Veerpur cultures in the city. Dia (Simran Kaur) and Jahnvi (Vaishnavi Dhanraj) meet in college and become friends. Dia is treated poorly by Ammaji because of her gender whilst Amba and Jahnvi live a happy life as the latter believes Amba to be her real mom. Unfortunately, Amba dies while trying to save Dia, a witness in a court case, and on her death bed, reveals that Dia and Jahnvi are twin sisters. After a lot of reluctance and Jahnvi's strike, Ammaji accepts her in the household.
Dia is in love with Shaurya (Varun Kapoor), who is Bhanupratap's son, and the two wish to marry but Ammaji opposes the marriage and agrees to let Jahnvi marry him. Dia poses as Jahnvi in the wedding and marries Shaurya. They elope after the wedding. Bhanupratap pretends to welcome Dia in the house, but later kidnaps Ammaji. Dia and Jahnvi save her, and Ammaji kills Bhanupratap, making Shaurya leave Dia.
They return to Veerpur to find a new cruel Sarpanch Rana Rantej, and Ammaji strives to save her granddaughter from him. Rana orders Jahnvi to marry his sons, but she only accepts Surya, who also falls in love with her. Rana conspires against Veerpur and poisons the land and the water, but Jahnvi exposes him in time. Rana dies while trying to cover his own loss.
The Haveli is peaceful for some time, but Ammaji gets involved with corrupt politicians and Dia gets killed in place of Ammaji when they try to kill her. Rana's son Param kills Surya as he tries to avenge his father's death in the Haveli. Jahnvi falls into depression, and a dejected and reformed Ammaji renounces everything, and hands over her powers to Jahnvi, who comes stronger than before and saves the family.
The serial ends with Ammaji now playing with little girls in Veerpur, and Jahnvi ruling as the new Ammaji.
