Plot
The story revolves around the lives of two sisters from Vrindavan, Simar and Roli. Simar dreams of becoming a dancer but her parents are against her dream. Her marriage is fixed with a wealthy businessman, Prem Bharadwaj. On wedding day, Simar has to participate in a dancing contest and Roli takes her place until her return. As Simar is late, Roli is forced to marry Prem. This creates problems as Simar and Prem start loving each other. Prem's brother Siddhant enters, who was expelled from the house. After some twists and turns, Simar-Prem and Roli-Siddhant get married. Eventually, both Simar and Roli are accepted to Bharadwaj house.
Soon, Khushi enters to take revenge for her sister Anisha's death and tries to kill Simar. She tricks the Bhardwaj family and marries their son, Sankalp. Simar is pregnant but miscarries, which makes her to never conceive and become a mother. Khushi becomes surrogate mother of Prem and Simar's child. She blackmails Simar to sign the property papers. Later, Khushi is exposed and gives birth to Prem and Simar's daughter Anjali.
Simar and Roli find their long-lost sister-in-law, Jhanvi. Soon, Shaurya enters Jhanvi's life and marries her. He creates trouble but Jhanvi shoots him to death. Then, she marries Dr. Anurag. Simar and Roli save the family from Shobha, Shakti, Meghna Singhania, Bhakti and politician Jwala Devi. Jwala kidnaps Roli and while escaping, Roli unintentionally hits a car, thus leading a woman named Sunaina to die. To save Roli, Simar goes to Sunaina's family, faking her death, and lives as Sunaina as per Sunaina's husband Vikrant Mehta's instructions.
2 years later
Simar lives as Sunaina and raises the Mehta's daughter, Sanjana while Roli takes care of Anjali. Prem has married his sister-in-law Pari's sister, Surbhi. Roli meets Simar at a summer camp, discovering that she is alive, and pleads her to come back. Simar returns and has to cope up with Sunaina's spirit who has returned for revenge from Vikrant's family who were the people behind her death. Prem, Roli and Siddhant also join with Simar. Eventually, Sunaina and Surabhi are banished. Vikrant falls in love with Simar and tries to murder Prem; thus, is sent to jail. Sanjana gets adopted by Simar and Prem.
Later, the story revolves around Simar, Roli, Prem and Siddhant and how they protect Bharadwaj house from some supernatural creatures who want to destroy them. These supernatural creatures include shapeshifting female serpent Maya, Dayans Mohini and Indravati, Patali Devi-Gayatri, ghosts Maalti, Madhavi and Chhoti Dulhan, Shaitan (Kaal), Moon Jewel Princess Chandramani and another two Dayans Mahamaya and Kamya. While defeating Patali Devi-Gayatri and Kaal, Simar's life falls in danger. To protect her elder sister, Roli sacrifices her life. After Roli's sad demise, a depressed Siddhant is remarried to her childhood friend Prerna and moves abroad with her. To gain his powers back and return to the world, Kaal with the help of Mahamaya and Kamya casts a spell on Simar and impregnates her with a child possessing evil powers. Simar becomes aware of this mysterious plan and soon witnesses Kamya's real vintage. The family learns of this, too. Simar and Prem have a son, Piyush. Being in doubt of the baby's spookiness, the family asks Simar to donate away the child. Simar refuses and leaves her in-laws with Piyush.
21 years later
Simar and Piyush return to Bharadwaj house and reunite with their family. Now Anjali, brought up by Khushi, has grown up to be a spoilt fashionista and blames Simar for abandoning her. Simar and Prem together help their children in their lives. Anjali marries Vikram Agarwal and Piyush marries his best friend, Roshni Kapoor. As Simar helps Anjali to manage her marriage, she accepts her mother.
Kaal awakens on Piyush's birthday, possessing him and killing Roshni's father Sumit Kapoor, but is finally defeated by sorceress Ridhima. Later, Vikram divorces Anjali due to her misbehaviours and marries Tanvi. Sanjana returns to Bharadwaj house from London. The family fixes her marriage with her college friend, Sameer Kapoor. However, Anjali discovers that Sameer is a fraud who is conspiring against the Bharadwajs' and to spare herself from the same fate, she marries Sameer. She humiliates her family members and ill-treats them. Piyush plots a plan to get the Bharadwaj property back from Anjali. Anjali threatens to kill Simar, who shoots her, and Anjali falls into a coma.
Sameer's mother Bhairavi is revealed to have shot Anjali. She enters the Bharadwajs' lives to avenge Prem for killing her husband. It is subsequently revealed that Bhairavi murdered him herself and is using the Bharadwajs as a cover-up. After absorbing supernatural powers, she turns into a daayan and kills Simar. However, the Mother Goddess Durga, deeply worshipped by the Bharadwaj family, enters their household in the form of Simar, to destroy Bhairavi and bring Simar back to life. Sameer repents for his mistakes and the Bharadwajs forgive and accept him.
Anjali wakes up from coma and asks forgiveness from the family. Her intentions are revealed when she tries to kill her fiancé, Sahil and sets Bharadwaj Mansion on fire, and she is arrested. Simar and others disown her. The Saga of the Mystery Box begins, leading to Aliya, who shoots Roshni with a gun to avenge her father's death due to Piyush's mistake. Roshni dies, leaving the family in sadness and making Piyush mad.
6 months later
Simar and Prem are in search for Piyush, who got lost after Roshni's death. Piyush has lost his memory and is being looked after by Avni. Simar takes him back to Bharadwaj house together with Avni and her mother Hema. Bhairavi has returned from jail and is living with Sameer and Sanjana, but is actually plotting revenge, having paid Avni and Hema to destroy the Bharadwaj family. Sanjana miscarries. When Avni tries to expose Bhairavi, the latter attempts to kill her but instead murders Hema. Bhairavi shooting a gun leads to Piyush regaining his memory.
In the end, Simar kills Bhairavi and Piyush marries Avni, promising her that he would always be by her side. The Bharadwajs worship the Mother Goddess and celebrate togetherness. Pari apologises to Simar for her past mistakes. Simar misses Roli and Nirmala says that the Bharadwaj family is not only a family but a thought. With this, the first season comes to an end.
