Summary

The show is set in Bhopal. Shravan Malhotra, a spoilt and indisciplined civilian teenager, sent to an army school to learn discipline where he meets Suman Tiwari, a fully disciplined and ambitious girl from an army family who is the daughter of Colonel Vijay Tiwari who is, in turn, Shravan's father Devraj's friend. Initially, both despise each other due to their different backgrounds.

Shravan dislikes the discrimination between army and civilian students and the conflicts this often leads to. Suman and Shravan are constantly at odds with each other as they try to prove the other's view wrong. However, despite their constant clashes, Shravan falls in love with Suman. He tries to confess his love to her but hesitates. Shravan's father has an argument with Suman's father, Vijay, and the two families grow to dislike each other. Several incidents take place, increasing this tension. Meanwhile, Suman learns about Shravan's feelings for her. She mistakes this to be just a teenage crush and decides to ask him to be her best friend instead. Shravan finally confesses his love to Suman. Hearing the confession, she decides not to remain in contact with him as she worries that not doing so will cause Shravan more pain, unaware that deep down, she has feelings for him as well. Separately, Anish challenges Shravan by placing Suman's honour at stake. In order to defend her, Shravan takes up the challenge. While the two are competing, Shravan falls from a high wall but Suman risks her own life and saves him. When questioned by Shravan about why she took such a huge risk just to save him, Suman is unable to answer and thus she realises how deeply she has fallen for him. The next day, she confesses her feelings for him. Later, they both go on a date where Suman was kidnapped and later saved by Shravan. A huge misunderstanding breaks out between both their families due to which Shravan ends up pathetically begging Suman's grandfather to not take the matter further. Suman watches this scenario helplessly and later breaks down as she hates seeing Shravan beg. They meet at Suman corner regularly to talk, study together, teach each other new things and give presents to each other. Later they permanently tattoo each other's name - Shravan on his chest and Suman on her back.

After months of secret love, they are finally discovered almost kissing by their families. Enraged, both families decide to send their children away so that they do not meet each other. Shravan and Suman decide to elope so that they can buy time hoping their family will understand their true love for each other and accept their relationship. Elsewhere, Vijay gets killed while fighting insurrectionists in a counterinsurgency operation. Suman regrets that she had been cold towards her father in their last meeting. Devraj is arrested on charges of making a low-quality bulletproof vest and goods for the army and is blamed for Vijay's death. Suman believes this and breaks up with Shravan, leaving him heartbroken.

After 7 years

Hatred has made both Shravan and Suman strangers to each other for the last 7 years. Shravan is a captain in the Dhar regiment of the Indian Army. He is considered a daredevil by his platoon. Unknown to him, Suman is now a Surgeon captain in the AMC. The once perfectly disciplined, obedient, and cheerful Suman has now evolved into a strict yet rebellious and unruly army doctor who does not bow down to anyone. Both now live in broken families- Suman's mother is no more and in her absence, Suman's once loving aunt now has property-related issues with Suman. On the other hand, Shravan is struggling to manage his father's legal complications as well as his uncle who is now a depressed divorcee. Also, Shravan's cousin, Avni, now lives with her mother and avoids Rajendra. On the other hand, Suman's lawyer, Vikram, is interested in Suman and tries to impress her.

Separately, both of them prepare for the final verdict of the case which was filed against Shravan's father by Suman's family long back. For the same, they return to their home town Bhopal, where they meet unexpectedly. It so happened that Suman's cousin brother Veer was saved by Shravan from a fatal truck collision, in which Shravan gets grievously injured. Ensuing their sudden meet, they cherish intense hostility and disdain for each other due to their past. To their dismay, the Military Hospital Commandant assigns Suman to treat Shravan. Meanwhile, Kanchan, Suman’s cousin sister, returns from her hostel, and Vikram befriends Shravan, who unknowingly helps Vikram impress Suman. Shravan also gets to know that Vikram and Suman are in a relationship, enraging him.

A few weeks later, the case verdict is out and Shravan wins the case. Suman is dejected because she feels that she couldn't give justice to Vijay. At Veer's birthday party, both Suman and Shravan confess their heart out and how much they missed each other during their difficult times. The confession turns into an argument as she still feels that the earlier punishment given to Devraj is not enough. The next day, Suman files the case again in the high court. Vikram notices the tiff between the two and thus Suman reveals their past relationship to Vikram but she mentioned it as a high school attraction. This irks Shravan and he vows to irritate Suman.

Shravan sells his house but is unable to find any alternative accommodation as he needs to stay for a few days more due to his recovering injury. Suman's aunt asks Shravan to stay as a paying guest in their house, to which he agreed. Sophie is then introduced. Sharavan and Sophie click instantly which makes Suman quite jealous. After an encounter with Vikram, Sophie tells Shravan that she is the ex-girlfriend of Vikram. Vikram is afraid that Suman might consider him a loser because Sophie had dumped him earlier and so, he does not turn up for the invited dinner which hurts Suman. Suman is taunted by Chachi. This makes Shravan sad and he helps Vikram realizing his mistake. Suman gets to know about this which increases her respect for Shravan. They start to have good care and bond again only to realize that they have been hurt by each other in the past and should not let their inner feelings take over. They decide to show each other that they have 'moved on' by getting closer to their respective partners.

During a wedding, Avni visits the Malhotra home once again and instantly realizes that Suman and Shravan still possess strong feelings for each other. Separately, Suman and Shravan each realize that they still love each other. On discovering that Shravan had helped him in her financial difficulties furtively, Suman discerns Shravan still cares for her and she vows to dig the truth. But before she could interrogate Shravan, she sees Shravan with Sophie and misconceives them to be dating. Dejected, she decides against confessing and to move on with some happy memories of time spent with Shravan. She even withdraws the judicial case against Shravan's father. On the other hand, based on Bunty's viewpoint, Shravan gets a hunch that Suman feels for her and attempts to divulge his love to the latter. But before he could confess, Suman accedes to Vikram's marriage proposal. It renders Shravan heartbroken and he determines to drift away from Suman as soon as possible so as to not cause any grief to either Suman or Vikram.

As Shravan has healed and is fit to join his command and resume his duty, he insists to scram away immediately. It agonizes Suman further as she craved for Shravan's company. Shravan's sudden departure devastates Suman. She meets with a minor road accident due to incautious driving and sprains her ankle. On hearing the news, Shravan succumbs to returning Bhopal in order to visit Suman.

Few day later, Suman's engagement is finalized with Vikram. However, on the day of engagement, Shravan proposes to Suman and she accepts, breaking the alliance with Vikram.

After lots of efforts, SuVan finally manages to get consent for their marriage from their respective families, and they get married. Suman becomes ADC Major Dr. Suman Malhotra and Shravan becomes Major Shravan Malhotra.

Although their marriage and love is tested several times, their true love for each other always prevails.
