Their marriage was arranged by Siddhartha's elder sister-in-law, Chandrika, who chose Sannidhi because of her infertility and thereby her inability to produce an heir to inherit the family fortune. As time progresses the two fall in love, and Siddharth's younger brother Akhil and Sannidhi's younger sister, Tanu also begin to like each and hope to get married. However, their dreams along with Sannidhi & Siddharth's marriage will be continuously threatened by Chandrika who due to unknown and mysterious reasons (surrounding her father's death, who in turn had a close relation with Vasudev, Siddharth's father) plans to destroy Siddharth's family with the help of her acquaintances.
