On her 3rd birthday, Payal Joshi gets kidnapped by a woman-kidnapper, Rangoli and is separated from her family including her mother, Nupur Joshi.
7 years later
For 7 years, the Joshis believe that Payal is dead, while Nupur is still in hope. Meanwhile, Payal has been raised as “Chikoo” by Rangoli. She is talented dancer like Nupur and is determined to find her parents. Soon, Payal and Nupur meet and share a bonding. Nupur brings Payal to Joshis who refused her including Nupur's husband, Milind.
Kamini finds out that Chikoo is Payal and conspires against her. Milind's disabled father, Shashikant also learns Payal's truth after seeing her pendent, which was gifted by Nupur to Payal. Due to a misunderstanding, Nupur throws Payal out of house. Later, Payal saves the kids from Hira Amma, a female kidnapper and Rangoli reveals that Nupur is her mother, making amends with the children before dying. Payal helps an orphan Mini, who betrays the latter by pretending as "Payal". Nupur and Milind decide to adopt Chikoo while Kamini and Mini conspire against them.
Soon, Mini is exposed and Chikoo reveals that she is Payal. Joshis refuse to believe her and decide to send them away. However, Payal falls off a cliff and loses her memory while Joshis believe her dead. She is rescued by Sameer Khaitan and begins to live as his late daughter, Archie. Nupur encounters Payal and tries to get her memory back. Eventually, Payal regains her memory while Nupur finds out that Chikoo is indeed her daughter, Payal. Nupur falls off stairs to death while Payal returns to her. Sameer adopts Payal after that.
10 years later
Payal is now grown up and returns to Mumbai. She is an internet dancing sensation under the name of "Ishq" and teaches dance by wearing a mask through her social-media handle "Yeh Ishq Nachaye". She crosses-paths with Dhanush. Dhanush develops a soft-corner for her but is pressured by his mother, Alka to be in the "first rank" in everything, which sometimes pushes him into crossing boundaries. Soon, Dhanush realizes his mistakes and apologizes to Payal and helps her. Mini too apologizes Payal for her past mistakes. It is revealed that Nupur was murdered by Kamini. Sameer, Payal and Mini expose Kamini, who is later arrested. The Joshis finds that Chikoo is Payal and reunite with her. Finally, Payal and Dhanush confess their love and everybody celebrate it.
