Plot
Sathya is a brave tomboy, who enjoys her life as it comes. She lives with her mother, grandmother and her money-minded elder sister Divya. She owns her late father's mechanic shed. She is always ready to help others at moments notice. Soon, Sathya meets a rich businessman, Prabhu and they become friends. Eventually, Sathya realizes her feelings for Prabhu. Elsewhere Prabhu's marriage is fixed with Divya. Sathya is unaware about Prabhu and Divya's marriage, but is left heartbroken after learning this.
On the wedding day, Divya is kidnapped by her ex-fiance, Bala and later she meets with an accident. Then, Sathya's grandmother reveals that Sathya is Divya's sister, which shocks Prabhu and his family. However, Prabhu and Sathya get married unwillingly, as they are forced by their families to save the family honour. After marriage Sathya's mother Janaki apologises to her for the way she treated her before and advices on how to behave with the new family.
Despite the treacheries done by Prabhu's Sister and Uncle to throw Sathya out of Prabhu's life, because she is against their evil selfish interests. Sathya outsmarts them by her wit. Sathya generously forgives them and hides many of their wrong-doings from Prabhu. But the 'bad company' takes this as an advantage.
Nearly a year after marriage, Sathya is accepted by Prabhu and they live happily. Soon after, Divya returns and she too joins the 'bad company' and tries to create problems between Sathya and Prabhu, but all in vain. Finally, Sathya becomes pregnant and Prabhu is excited and gets over protective of her. However, when Prabhu is in danger, as planned by the 'bad company', Sathya comes out of her confinement and saves Prabhu from being killed and in the process she loses her baby.
Fallen to treachery, Prabhu banishes Sathya from house blaming her as the cause for the miscarriage, but the truth is that, Prabhu brutally hit Sathya by his car, that caused the abortion (though Prabhu is unaware of this, and Sathya hide this truth). Yet Sathya feels guilty for not adhering to Prabhu's advices. Sathya and Prabhu get separated due to Prabhu's arrogance.
