Reshma

Gopika Sharma lives a middle-classed lifestyle along with her widowed mother in Bangalore. She expresses a desire to sing and is encouraged by her maternal uncle, Dubey, who takes her with him to Bombay along with her maid, Lajjo. Once there, they are molested and Dubey goes missing. They then attempt to find a decent place to live, and after many frustrations make an agreement with a single male, Kishankumar Shukla, who poses as Gopika's husband, and move into an apartment owned by Lala Dhaniram.

When Thakur Virendra Singh's wife firstborn child is still born, Janaki, who used to be a tawaif, gives up her newly born son to the grieving mother. The two families' fates get entangled yet again when Virendra Singh's second son falls in love with Janaki's daughter.
