Plot
Set against the vibrant backdrop of Mumbai, the story begins 22 years ago when Mannat was abandoned by her biological mother, Sonia Khanna, at Marine Drive but was saved by a young boy, named Aman, and was taken in and raised by her maternal aunt, Shruti. After graduating from culinary college, Mannat now embarks on her professional journey as a chef. She lands her first job at a high-end restaurant "Mezbaani" owned by Aishwarya Raisingh and her business partner, Vikrant Saluja.
Unbeknownst to anyone, Mannat and Aishwarya share a deep connection - Aishwarya is actually Sonia. When Sonia discovers Mannat's disadvantaged background, and the growing bond between Mannat and Vikrant, she fires Mannat. However, Vikrant sees Mannat's potential and culinary talent, re-hiring her despite Sonia's opposition. This sparks a fierce rivalry, as Sonia fears that Mannat will not only steal the spotlight, but also capture Vikrant's attention, further complicating their already strained relationship. Another secret gets exposed when Vikrant's mother, Neetu tells Sonia that her biological son, Vikrant died at a young age and this Vikrant is actually adopted by her and her husband, Ronnie and his name is actually Aman, the same Aman who had saved Mannat's life 22 years ago. As destiny whips up a course of colliding ambitions and family secrets, will Mannat's recipe for success triumph over her mother, Sonia's bitter opposition.
