Radhika tells Shanaya to stop referring to Gurunath as Garry. When Radhika discovers Gurunath's affair with Shanaya, he advises her to leave his house. However, Radhika tells Gurunath that she wishes to stay with him for the rest of her life and pleads with him not to throw her out. Gurunath refuses to listen to her and firmly states that he will continue meeting Shanaya.

;6 months later
Radhika and Gurunath's childhood friend, Saumitra, returns from the United States. With Saumitra’s support, Radhika works hard to move ahead of Gurunath and make him pay for his wrongdoings. She starts making ''masalas'' and establishes her own company, ''Radhika Masale'', eventually becoming the owner of a ₹300-crore business. Meanwhile, Shanaya and Gurunath dress up and prepare to put their best foot forward to impress their new boss. However, Gurunath's mother is displeased upon learning that Radhika is going to be Gurunath’s new boss. Radhika arrives with her team and receives a grand welcome. As Shanaya and Gurunath make their way through the crowd, they are left in shock when Radhika reveals that she is their new boss. Unable to handle Radhika’s success, a drunken Gurunath arrives at her society and starts throwing tantrums. He accuses her of seeking revenge, but after getting an earful from Radhika, he becomes infuriated and threatens to teach her a lesson. Eventually, Radhika falls in love with her friend Saumitra.

;One year later
Radhika marries Saumitra. However, Gurunath, who attends the wedding disguised as a band player, feels saddened. Saumitra and Radhika promise to stand by each other for a lifetime and complete the rest of the rituals. After the wedding, Saumitra's family warmly welcomes Maya. Meanwhile, Gurunath and Shanaya's friend, KD (Abhijeet Guru), grows anxious when Shanaya and her mother, Sulakshana, decide to stay at his house. Maya shares her thoughts about Radhika with Saumitra.

After Gurunath deceives Shanaya, she turns to Radhika for support and starts helping her in every matter. Meanwhile, everyone is busy preparing for Shanaya’s wedding. Gurunath, believing that Shanaya wants to marry him, is eager and ready to tie the knot with her. Meanwhile, Radhika and Saumitra devise a plan to break Maya and Gurunath’s relationship. In reality, Shanaya is set to marry her friend, Kunal Kulkarni, but they have misled everyone into believing that she is marrying Shreyas. On the other hand, Shanaya tricks Gurunath into her plan and makes him believe that she wants to marry him. As a result, Gurunath is fully prepared for the wedding. However, Saumitra informs Maya about Gurunath’s intentions and urges her to attend Shanaya’s wedding. Finally, Radhika reveals to Gurunath that Shanaya’s real groom is Kunal.

A few days later, Jenny is kidnapped by Gotya Sheth, a local liquor seller. Determined to take action, Radhika decides to shut down the local liquor stores. However, when Maya and Shreyas go to the police station, the inspector refuses to file a complaint. Radhika then mobilizes the women in the community to vote for a ban on alcohol. As she investigates further, she realizes that Gotya Sheth is behind Jenny’s kidnapping. Disguised as Kamlakar, Gotya Sheth arrives to meet Radhika, making everyone anxious as he abducts Jenny. After receiving a suspicious gift from Gotya Sheth, Saumitra advises Radhika to leave the village for her safety. Meanwhile, Gotya Sheth interrogates Santosh, trying to figure out how Radhika managed to complete an important order. As Jenny expresses her craving for Punjabi food, everyone comes together to cook for her. Meanwhile, Gurunath repeatedly begs Gotya Sheth to bring his wife back. In response, Gotya Sheth warns Gurunath that he plans to kill Radhika’s loved ones. Later, Gotya Sheth makes a phone call, instructing someone to arrange for a bulldozer and a marriage hall. Soon after, Radhika receives a threatening message. Just as Seema Tai is at home, Radhika discovers a letter warning her about the imminent demolition of the warehouse.

Saumitra and Maya suspect that it could be Gotya Sheth’s plan and take precautionary measures to protect Radhika. Meanwhile, Radhika confronts Gotya Sheth, only to be shocked when she sees that the man demolishing the warehouse is none other than Gurunath. Anand informs Saumitra and Maya that Radhika has discovered Gurunath’s involvement. Gurunath then reveals to Radhika that he is not mentally unstable and threatens to kill Saumitra if she does not agree to be with him. Soon after, Gotya Sheth calls Radhika, informing her that he is coming to meet her. Maya devises a plan to trap him and sets up hidden cameras in the room, informing everyone, including Saumitra, about the plan. As per Maya’s strategy, Gotya Sheth arrives at the bungalow, unaware that the cameras are recording everything. Meanwhile, Gurunath pleads with Sarita, expressing his desire to meet Atharva. The threats made by Gotya Sheth are captured on the hidden cameras, and Shreyas quickly sends the footage to Saumitra. Upon hearing Gotya Sheth’s vile remarks, Radhika slaps him. When Gotya Sheth sees the incriminating video on his phone, he falls at Radhika’s feet and begs for forgiveness. The police arrive and arrest Gotya Sheth and his men. Saumitra is overjoyed when Shanaya arrives, and together, Radhika, Shanaya, and Maya decide to teach Gurunath a lesson. Later, Saumitra discusses the opportunity Gurunath has asked for, and Radhika explains the importance of Gurunath being in Atharva's life.
