Concept

Doctor Simran Mathur is a successful gynaecologist. Having devoted her entire life towards achieving this success, she finds herself lonely as she edges closer to her mid-thirties.

At this point Abhimanyu steps in. Abhi reminds Simran of the past, which she has buried and forgotten. 24-year-old Abhi brings out the feminine side of Simran. He brings her face to face with her desires and needs. At first Simran resists him and all that he wants out of this relationship but gradually Abhi breaks down her resolves and confronts her with his love. Simran is unable to resist and is left with no alternatives when Abhi goes and asks for her hand from her parents.

A torrid romance, a wedding shrouded in ambiguity, a short lived honeymoon, an insecure motherhood and the dramatic rise in Abhimanyu's career - all this and more is what is in store for Simran. How Simran finally emerges a winner out of a situation where she has no control, is what Astitva - ek prem kahani is all about.
