There is a deep sibling rivalry between Zeb and her younger sister Natasha.

Debutant Mira Sethi plays the role of Natasha, the jealous and immature younger sister to Zeb. Natasha is an educated upper class but lazy sit-at-home-by-choice woman. Natasha has never worked a day in her life and post marriage too she lives like a princess taking great offense if asked to work at home. Natasha’s dominant traits are her seething jealousy and anger towards her sister Zeb – who she feels has always been the favored one by everyone. Sheis a smart and smooth talking woman. Her sole focus is bringing her sister down so that she may win over her and for that she goes to unimaginable heights and even resorts to using black magic.

As both Zeb and Natasha move into their marital homes, do the dynamics of their relationship change or will their rivalry amplify leading to the ultimate destruction of their families, homes and lives?
