Produced by Jay Mehta under Jay Production, it starred Shruti Sharma, Abrar Qazi and Sonali Naik. It is the love story of Don of Dombiwaali Mumbai and IPS from Surendranagar^[1]

Dhanak Parekh from Surendranagar, Gujarat and Raghu Bharat Jadhav from Mumbai, Maharashtra, are two people with clashing personalities who ultimately become tied by the strings of marriage, friendship, and love.

Raghu is a petty criminal, a goon who has a fearsome reputation. Shortly he becomes one of the most powerful Dons in Mumbai. Savitri, his mother, controls their organization, and encourages him to resort to violent acts to increase their wealth and reputation. Dhanak is an aspiring IPS officer who keeps on the right side of the law. Raghu falls in love with her at first sight and forces her into marriage by holding her family as hostages. Dhanak hates Raghu and his lawlessness at first, but soon falls for him. After that she started loving him more than he loved her. Savitri and Maya, one of Raghu's friends, try to create misunderstandings between the pair, but they always manage to sort things out.

When Raghu's father, Bharat, returns after being presumed dead, things get more dangerous. Bharat and his companions engage in acts of terrorism, which causes Dhanak to lose her job. They then kidnap her sister. Raghu tries to save her, but fails, she is killed by Bharat and he blames her death on Raghu; He thinks Dhanak's sister was killed by him. As pressure builds around Raghu, he begins to believe himself guilty. He is arrested and sentenced to jail for five years.

Raghu is released and returns to see Dhanak and their son Raunak. Despite still madly loving him, she asks him to stay away because she has still not forgiven him for her sister's death. Akshay, Dhanak's boss and friend, tries to separate Raghu and Dhanak forever. However, Raghu becomes an incredibly successful businessman in Mumbai after he sets up his new company RJ Industries, and eventually hires both Akshay and Dhanak as his staff.

Soon Dhanak falls for Raghu again, because she can't hold her love and affection for Raghu by faking it. Raghu, Dhanak and Raunak are reunited, and Savitri comes to love and accept her daughter-in-law.

Again Maya and Akshay collaborate to destroy Raghu by framing a murder which he didn't commit. But Raghu, Dhanak and their family reunites to prove his innocence and defeats Maya and Akshay.
