Plot

Shiv Prasad Deshmukh is a seemingly ordinary middle-class family man in Maharashtra who lives with his courageous wife Shalini, son Harshit "Chintu" and daughter Riddhi "Pihu". Shalini is revealed to be actually the younger daughter of Malhar Dixit and Deepali Dixit from the elite Dixit family, but she had cut contacts with them, eloped with Shiv and married him against their wishes. While Shalini, Shiv and their kids live happily together, the Dixit family plans to marry off Malhar's younger brother Manish Dixit's daughter, Aradhya Dixit, to Kabir Kulkarni, a rich rogue from the Kulkarni family. Though the Dixits are aware of the fact that Kabir is a criminal, they still want to go ahead with the marriage to improve business relations with Kabir's father, and Aradhya also loves him dearly. Meanwhile, Shalini goes for an outing to a restaurant with Shiv and the kids when some of Kabir's goons try to molest her. She slaps them and berates Shiv for not standing up for her and merely apologizing to them instead. Shiv asks her and the kids to wait outside and thrashes the goons in the restaurant himself, revealing himself to be SPD Parshuram, a special task officer who is actually working undercover as an insurance agent, along with his dialogue, "Vishnu ke chhathe avatar Parshuram ka hathiyar tha farsa aur Kaliyug ke common man Parshuram ka hathiyar hai Prahar aur yeh chhah chamber wali revolver, (Vishnu's sixth incarnation Parashurama's weapon was an axe, and the common-man Parshuram's weapon is a six-chambered revolver.)" While he attacks, Sheetal, an important leader of the mafia criminal underworld who has had a crush on Shiv from college days, is watching him from behind the scenes. She realizes that Shiv is Parshuram, who had posed a great threat to the underworld for a long time, and resolves to capture and destroy him. She says, "Sheetal and smoking, both are injurious to health." and makes contact with Babbar, a bald-headed gangster and an ally of Kabir, who had also tried to bully Shalini before, to help her destroy both Shiv and Shalini. Babbar's goons kidnap Pihu and Chintu, who are saved by Shiv. As he beats up the goons with his usual 'Parshuram' dialogue, Chintu catches him with his revolver and finds out that his dad is Parshuram. Shiv then requests Chintu not to reveal his identity to anyone, including his mother and sister, though the latter had always come close to accidentally revealing Parshuram's identity, only to be signaled by Shiv himself to keep quiet. A worried Shalini files a kidnapping case against Kabir and slaps him. Understanding her feelings, Parshuram secretly catches Babbar, only to find that the latter had escaped with the help of one of his own colleagues. He catches one of Kabir's goons trying to follow Shalini, Pihu and Chintu in their car for evil intentions and thrashes him. Simultaneously, the Dixits are shocked to find out about Shalini's molestation in the restaurant, the Deshmukh kids' kidnapping and the case against Kabir, their future son-in-law. Malhar, Manish, Omkar and Sankalp Dixit set out to resolve the case with the help of CCTV footage from the same restaurant. They are secretly followed by Agent Balram, Parshuram's teammate and college best friend, at the latter's instructions. Meanwhile, Shalini's mother Deepali and elder sister Adv. Nandini suggest they call of the marriage of Kabir and Aradhya in support of Shiv and Shalini but the rest of the family, including Aradhya herself, refuses. Nandini proposes to be Shalini's lawyer against Kabir. Meanwhile, both Shiv and Shalini face threats by many gangsters, including Sheetal, that they will destroy them and their kids. Others threaten them to withdraw the case against Kabir. Chintu is kidnapped again but is saved by Parshuram. Sankalp Dixit finds out about Parshuram from Chintu but is caught and thrashed by Balram and other colleagues of Parshuram. Sheetal makes an assassination attempt on Shiv during Shalini's dance performance but fails. Babbar also tries to assassinate Shiv but the latter escapes. Meanwhile, Manish and his wife Namrata plan to invite Shalini and Shiv to Aradhya and Kabir's wedding to make Shalini confess about the kidnappings. The proposal is initially rejected by Shalini and Shiv but later, the former is manipulated by Aradhya to come. Shalini becomes increasingly worried for her family's safety and tells Nandini that she quits the case but Nandini encourages her to go forward, saying that the law is with her. Meanwhile, Kabir's father, Karan Kulkarni, enters the picture and warns Shalini to withdraw the case against his son, otherwise she and her family will be burnt alive. On the other hand, Parshuram and Balram discover that Sheetal's actual name is Shikha Talwar, a girl from their college days. During Kabir and Aradhya's wedding, Shalini and the kids arrive. Shiv initially departs from there after dropping them, but later returns. Kabir and Aradhya are happily wed, and Shalini and Shiv are still threatened by Karan to withdraw Kabir's case throughout. After the wedding, Kabir's court case is scheduled. Despite the threats, with Nandini's help, Shalini bravely gives the statement against Kabir, who is then sent to prison for 14 days, until the next court session. In revenge, Karan refuses to let Aradhya inside the house and does not consider her his daughter-in-law. He threatens Malhar that he will destroy the Dixit family. The Dixits, including Aradhya herself, blame Shalini for Aradhya's misfortunes and lash out at her supporters, Deepali, Nandini and Shalini's cousin Bhoomika for encouraging her to jail Kabir. Concerned for Aradhya, Shalini takes Shiv to take Aradhya to her in-laws' house. When they reach, Karan forbids them from entering. Shiv Prasad fights Karan's goons (without Shalini or Aradhya's knowledge) and Shalini sends Aradhya inside after defying Karan. With constant encouragement from Advocate Anjali Awasthi, she defends a girl from a man abusing her in a bus.
