Plot
Aditya's first wife, Alo, dies. The media and his daughter, Pupul, blame him for her death. As Alo's soul has not yet achieved salvation, she wanders the family home, watching over and protecting Pupul. Aditya's stepmother, Indira, wishes for him to remarry and chooses her friend's daughter, Megha.
Meanwhile, Radha, a girl from Navadeep, saves Pupul several times and stays as a guest in the house. Aditya eventually agrees to marry Megha for Pupul's sake, but the marriage is cancelled by Alo, Radha, and Pupul. Finally, under pressure from Alo, Aditya marries Radha but states he is unable to accept her as his wife, as he remains in love with Alo.
The show follows Radha, Aditya, and Pupul's bond as they overcome many hurdles with help from Alo. However, aside from Alo and Radha, no one knows about Megha's ill intentions. Radha goes to Navadeep to gather evidence against Megha.
There, Megha captures Radha and tries to drown her in a river, but Aditya's uncle, Ajay, stops Megha and saves Radha. Basundhara and Ajay reunite and Megha is arrested, but Indira saves her. Megha then attempts to kill Aditya by pushing him from a roof; as a result, Aditya is paralysed.
Alo finally achieves salvation, and Pupul is able to see and touch her for the last time. Due to business problems, the Sen family is forced to leave their home, but Radha's childhood friend Rishi, now a lawyer, helps them regain it. Radha and Aditya confess their love for one another and reunite. However, Rishi is secretly in love with Radha; believing that Aditya killed Alo, he does not think Aditya deserves Radha. In an attempt to test Aditya's loyalty, Rishi sends a girl named Debi, who looks like Alo, to the Sen family home, with Debi claiming to be Alo. Radha discovers this and, with Debi's help, tries to identify Alo's real murderer. Megha intervenes, exposing Debi's true identity and accusing Radha and Rishi. Finally, Alo returns, saves Radha, and reveals that Megha was her murderer. Megha is arrested and Alo leaves the world for good, allowing the Sen family to live happily ever after.
