Shekhar's maternal grandmother loves him dearly, but she is also very religious and firm in her beliefs. Convinced that every man must have a male heir to carry on the family's name, she will only permit Shekhar to marry a woman who will bear him a son. Shekhar wants to marry Sunita, but an astrologer tells the grandmother that Sunita cannot bear any children, and so she disapproves of her. However, Shekhar and Sunita marry anyway.
