Episode 1 - Beginning Of An Amazing Love Story
The Sethi parivaar sends a proposal for their sweet daughter Simi. Several proposals were sent before but Simi was always rejected because she was so called "FAT". Simi is ready to meet RB (Rajiv Bhalla, the one who gets the proposal). After having a low-fat breakfast with her bro Anuj, her dad Rajinder, her sisters Nitu and Mili, and her mom Manju, Simi heads out to meet RB. She goes to a restaurant and meets RB. He is a short, high-voiced, flirter that kept looking at other girls in modern wear. This made Simi feel inferior and she also disliked RB. He would never let her talk. He just went on and on and on about his "suggestions" to make Simi more modern.
Simi decided not to marry him. When she reached home, RB's mom called. She said that they accept Simi as their Daughter-in-law. Everyone was so happy that Simi would finally get married. Now, they could also get Anuj married to Anita, his girlfriend. Simi had no courage to tell them the truth and went to her room to cry. Several days passed and the family met RB. Mili immediately disliked him. Anuj's marriage had to take place in a month according to his horoscope, but the Sethi's did not want thisā¦ā¦So here comes our hero, Abhinav or Abhi for short.
Abhi is a cool, modern, and religious guy that came from the U.S. for his sister's - Anita's marriage. On the way home, he goes to the temple where Simi is. Simi accidentally bumps into Abhi when coming out of the temple. They both say sorry and then laugh. Both of them feel an attraction to each other, as if they were meant to be together. This is the beginning of an amazing love story.
Later that night, Simi gets a call from RB. He asks if he can take her on a date tomorrow. Simi hesitantly says yes. The next day, Simi and RB go out. He drives her to a deserted area. Simi asks where they are. RB says that it is a secret place and that they can finally have some private time. RB forces himself on Simi. She hits him with a book and tries to get loose. Abhi is on that site taking pics for a college project. He notices RB's car there and calls the police because he knew it was the same car that ran the stoplight everyday of the week. He goes up to the car and sees Simi trying to get out. Abhi opens the door. Simi comes out and runs into Abhi's arms, crying. "What kind of a man are you?!!! How could you try to rape this innocent girl?" says Abhi. RB says that this is his future wife and he can do anything he wants with her.
The police come and arrest RB for running the stoplight. He tries to resist but cannot. Abhi offers to drop Simi home. They go in his jeep. "So are you really marrying him?" says Abhi. Simi says that she does not want to talk about it and gives him directions to her house. Abhi says that Simi seems like a nice girl and asks if she will be his friend. Simi says yes.
Abhi introduces himself and so does Simi. Abhi feels a weird emotion in his heart that he never felt before but also cannot explain and so does Simi. But Simi doesn't focus on her heart; she focuses on the fact that she will have to marry RB for her family. It is a long drive, so Abhi asks about Simi's family. She says that she has a great family and tells him about her parents and siblings. Suddenly, Abhi's jeep breaks down at the front of a restaurant. He says that they will have to call a mechanic. They go into the restaurant and asks the server if he knows any mechanics. The server says no. Abhi says " As long as we are here, how about some food?" Simi says she wants nothing. Abhi orders two pav bhaji's and offers one to Simi.
"You know, when I was in the U.S, I really missed this food!" says Abhi. Simi asks what it was like over there. He says that it was fun but he missed India. The two chat a little. Simi says that it is late and she should be home. Abhi finishes his pav bhaji and says that they will have to take a rickshaw. Abhi pays the server and goes out to get a rickshaw. He gets one to stop and goes in with Simi. Simi gives the directions. Abhi asks if the pav bhaji was tasty. She says yes and also says that it is very sweet of him to do all this for a stranger. Abhi says that he is her friend now and that friends help friends. The two continue to chat, this time romantically. Abhi again ask Simi if she will marry RB. Simi gives in and says that because of her fatness he is the only acceptance that she has gotten for marriage. Abhi says that what he did was still wrong.
The rickshaw reaches Simi's house. She comes out and says bye, and so does Abhi. Both of them want to stay with each other and feel that they are destined to be. But despite of their feeling, they leave each other.
