Synopsis : The story opens in India during the last days of the British Raj. A few months before Independence, a group of engineering students graduated. Naren and Satyapriya are two of the recently graduated engineers. Vikram Singh, the cruel and dissolute ruler of Bhawanigarh, is aware that his days of absolute power are numbered. In strange circumstances, Satyapriya Acharya meets and marries Ranjana after finding employment in Bhawanigarh. His family suffers greatly as a result, especially his grandfather who raised him. Ranjana cannot be welcomed into the household due to the teacher clan of the Acharyas' strict religious beliefs. Since Satyapriya upholds the highest standards of integrity and won't say anything false, he and his family must deal with difficulties. Reinterpreting tradition and relationships requires death in the family.
