Plot

The show is a blend of mythology and drama. The story runs on three parallel tracks.

The first story is about Santoshi, a devout follower of Santoshi Maa who believes that the goddess is the ultimate cure for all miseries.

The second story depicts the story of Devloka where all the gods and goddesses of the Universe reside. Goddess Santoshi along with her alliance 'Gau Mata' try their best to help their devotees. Their attempts are often interrupted by Goddess Poulomi who is known to be the goddess of jealousy, greed, and deception.

The third track involves Santoshi's relatives who are extremely greedy by nature. They dream of becoming rich and can go to any extent to raise money and live a luxurious lifestyle. The only morally upright person in this group is Santoshi's grandmother who is frustrated with her family but is unable to do anything because she depends on them for her medical needs. She is also the only one who loves Santoshi dearly and cares for her.
