== Plot ==<br />
Satya Jadhav lives in [[Mumbai]], with his father, Dinkar Jadhav. He aspires to play for the [[Indian Cricket Team]] and wants to initially get selected for the local [[Railways cricket team]]. While trying to get money to get into a cricket team, he runs into Nisha, and after some misunderstandings, they become close and fall in love. However, they are later separated by Nisha's parents, whose father is a strict Naval officer and disciplinarian, along with the circumstances that plague them. Nisha, who promises to return to Satya, never comes back. Satya falls into depression, turning to alcohol, and pushing away his dream of becoming a cricketer.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Shravani, Satya's neighbour, had been in love with Satya, since their childhood, of which he is unaware of. When she learnt of Satya's love for Nisha, she started distancing herself from him, but marries him a few years later, after sensing his and Dinkar's pain. However, Satya married Shravani due to pressure from his father, not out of love. He does not work and instead, relives his memories of Nisha. He relies on Shravani's salary, for money to buy alcohol, from the [[Indian Railways]].<br />
<br />
When Satya goes to [[Delhi]] to help select some cricket players from a youth team, he encounters Khushi, Nisha's daughter. He learns from Nisha's father, that Nisha and her husband, Kunal, died in an accident. Heartbroken, Satya agrees to take Khushi in, as an adopted father, after Nisha's father requests him to, as it was Nisha's wish. He takes Khushi back to Mumbai for cricket training. After letting his family know of the situation, Satya and Shravani both decide to adopt Khushi. However, Khushi says that she will only agree to becoming their adopted daughter, only if, Satya and Shravani sort out their problems and not distance themselves, to which they agree to.<br />
<br />
During this time, Satya realises Shravani's love for him and decides to let go of his past for a new start. However, Shravani thinks that he is just acting that way to please Khushi. She decides to get a job transfer to Nagpur, leaving Satya, Khushi, and Dinkar behind. When Satya goes to drop Shravani off at the railway station, he tells her that he loves her and apologizes to her for causing pain. A delighted Shravani decides to stay back. They both embrace and kiss, with Satya finishing his journey towards love.<br />
