However, as destiny has it, the two come back face to face with each other after 8 long years. While Nitya and Vikram both seem to have moved on in life with each accomplishing great feat in their career but is the love intact or lost is the question that will be answered as the show progresses. As they face each other after years, their minds are shrouded with a thousand questions, disbelief, and anger. Has time healed the two lovers?
