Sankalp realizes this, wants to get out of it and connect with Sambhavi, but cant, as he is weighed down by the unanswered questions and burden of his past. Sambhavi, on the other hand, is waiting for her husband to break out of those shackles and come to her with all the love and emotions that she expects from her husband.
She is aware of Sankalp’s past and is very much in love with him which gives her the strength to wait endlessly. Manav is a friend of Sambhavi’s brother who is madly in love with Sambhavi. He knows that Sambhavi is married and that she is awaiting her husband's return. Yet he doesn’t give up on her and dreams that one day, his one true love will realize her wait was all futile and will come to Manav, and his love will finally be fulfilled. Sambhavi, however, has no idea about Manav’s undying love for her. Sambhavi’s brother also wants Sambhavi to get together with Manav because he wants his sister to find love and not be in a dead-end relationship with her husband. He is connected somehow to a family of three young sisters, who are very rich in their culture and beliefs.
