Sati, who is the daughter of Prajapati Daksh, finds a rudraksh while drawing water from river along with her sisters. Prajapati Daksh, an opposer of Lord Shiv, dares to place Vishnu's incomplete idol in the temple. Prajapati Daksh performs Narayani Yagna to please Lord Vishnu as the statue was not entering the temple. Sati loses her way while collecting Parijat flowers in the forest. Sati gets visions of the solution for the statue enterting the temple in Rishi Dadhichi's ashram, whom she meets while finding her way back home. Accordingly, Sati places Shiv's idol in the incomplete Vishnu's statue and the statue enters the temple. Sati becomes emotional when she sees Lord Shiv for the first time.

When Shiva reveals himself in all his glory, Prajapati Daksh mocks him and claims he is superior. Shiva vows to destroy his arrogance. Daksh turns on Sati and blames her for the dishonour Shiva caused him. He asks her to choose between obedience to her father and her devotion to Shiva.

After announcing punishment for Sati, Prajapati Daksh decides to punish the sculptor who made the shivaling. He is unmoved even as his wife Prasuti pleads in Sati’s favour. Sati’s sisters are concerned that she may not be able to fulfil the conditions of her punishment.

Sati has to travel far to gather one lakh lotuses and write Vishnu’s name on them as part of her punishment. Meanwhile, the sculptors gather to beg Daksh’s forgiveness but he expels all of them from his kingdom. Saddened, they turn to leave, when Maharishi Dadichi arrives in the royal court.

Maharishi Dadhichi asks Prajapati Daksh not to be so cruel towards the sculptors. But Daksh asks him not to interfere in a king’s decisions. At this point, an exhausted Sati returns to the palace and faints. Is Prajapati Daksh moved by his daughter’s condition?

Sati’s sister Khyati pleads with Saptarishi Bhrigu to stop her father from punishing Sati further. Prasuti also tries to make Daksh change his mind. But the Prajapati vows revenge on Shiva for using Sati to humiliate him. Meanwhile, Sati has a vision that leaves her mesmerised.

Seeing Shiva's aura,Sati wakes up from a dream clueless about the hidden significance of it. A perplexed Sati shares about her dream with Aaditi unable to hide her curiosity. As Sati describes about seeing a faint picture of an Ardhanarishvara, Aaditi calms her down. On the other hand, King Daksh hides his emotions for his daughter behind his traits of being a Prajapati. While in search of lotuses, Sati meets the sculptor community and fails to avert the strong presence of Shiva.

Narad Muni arrives in the court of Prajapati Daksh, just as he announces that his literature will completely ignore Shiva. Narad Muni asks Sati about including Shiva in her father’s Vishnu sculpture. Sati says it was a mistake. Narad then leaves for Kailash, where Shiva is in deep meditation.

Narad conveys the news from Daksh’s court to Shiva. Shiva is aware of Narad’s plan and says he cannot be tied down by Grihastha. Narad leaves, telling Nandi that Sati will change all that. Sati, meanwhile, is still troubled by the visions of Ardhanarishwara and decides to forego her sleep.

Sati is trapped in a forest during a storm. Thoughts of Shiva continue to trouble her. Agitated, she demands that Shiva should stop occupying her thoughts and declares that she will not let him conquer her or her father. She returns to the palace and vows to finish her task.

Sati stays at her task and everyone is concerned as her condition deteriorates. She refuses to give up, and Prajapati Daksh boasts that his daughter will always uphold his principles. When Sati completes her task, Daksh gets a terrible shock. It is not Vishnu’s name that is written on the flowers.

Sati begs her father’s forgiveness for Shiva’s name on the lotuses and asks him to give her a harsher punishment. But he forgives her and asks her to take over the arrangements of the spring festival. Then, Nandi appears and worships Sati. What will happen if Prajapati Daksh sees him?

Daksh is angry when he sees Nandi worshipping Sati. She, too, is surprised to learn that Nandi is Lord Shiva's vehicle. In Kailash, Nandi describes Devi Sati to Shiva. He tells Nandi about his Vairagya and that the Grihastha’s life is not for him.

Sati weeps before her father and wonders why Nandi and Shiva are pursuing her. Daksh tells her she must never fear anything, because she is the daughter of the all-powerful Prajapati. He decides to show her how even the five elements obey him.

Daksh convinces Sati that Shiva and his followers have been using her to try and get to the Prajapati, because he is all-powerful. Meanwhile in Kailash, Kan and Pret criticise Nandi for having brought the lotuses with Shiva’s name on them. Then, Sati finds a lotus in the palace garden.

Narad Muni reports to Shiva about the events in Prajapati Daksh’s kingdom. Daksh is planning a gathering of the Mahasabha and wants Chandrama to be present. Chandrama’s father Rishi Atri agrees that he should go. What role will Chandrama play in the union of Shiva and Sati?

Daksh announces his desire to destroy Shiva. In Kailash, Nandi goes running to tell Shiva that the sculptor community, descendants of Vishwakarma, have been thrown out by Daksh. Shiva gives them shelter. The sculptors thank Shiva but ask if he would protect Sati, too.

Daksh punishes the sculptor and his family. Laxmi is upset with Daksh for the punishment he has given Sati. Sati's sister expresses her concern about Sati fulfilling her promise.

Daksh announces his decision to invite Shiva to his Mahayagna. In Kailash, Nandi is distressed that every spring season, Shiva retires to the cremation grounds and goes into the ‘samadhi’ state. Narad Muni then explains to him why Shiva does what he does.

Narad Muni tells Nandi about Shakti’s connection to Shiva’s Samadhi state. Nandi wants to know if they will be reunited and Narad Muni assures him it will all be revealed in time. But Shiva fumes when Nandi asks him about Sati.

Narad Muni decides that it’s time for Shiva and Sati to meet. He creates a situation by singing so badly that a group of singers who are travelling to the Spring Festival lose consciousness. Narad then calls Shiva to come and save them. Will Shiva oblige?

Mahadev arrives on earth and sings a raga that revives the group of singers. Sati, who has gone to fetch water for the yagna, also hears the song and begins to dance. When Mahadev sees her stand before him, he vanishes. Narad Muni says his singing was for the betterment of the universe.

When Sati returns to the palace, the singers speak about the magic of Mahadev’s music. Sati confesses that it has had a great effect on her. Meanwhile, dancer Madanike is invited for the Vasant Utsav. She takes one look at Sati and makes a surprising deduction.

Madanike insists that Sati has fallen in love, which Sati denies. Meanwhile, Rishi Dadhichi reaches Kailash and extends an invitation for Daksh’s yagna. Mahadev turns him down, saying he has no need for the ways of Mahamandals. Will the rishis be able to change his mind?

Mahadev agrees to go to the Mahamandal and tells the rishis he will be entirely responsible for its outcome. Angered that Mahadev is attending the yagna, Shukracharya vows to take on the deities. Narad Muni asks Mahadev not to go to Daksh’s court. But Mahadev has an answer for him.

Placing his faith in Vishnu, Daksh assures the gods that he will protect them from Shukracharya’s army of asuras. Daksh asks Chandrama to ensure that the Vasant Utsav goes off well. In Kailash, Mahadev is again displeased with Nandi for talking about Sati.

The Asuras decide to attack the gods if the Mahamandal goes against them. During the Vasant Utsav, Sati sings the same melody she heard Mahadev sing in the forest. Madanike learns about Sati’s feelings and warns her of the consequences.

Madanike tells Sati that her love for Mahadev will be disastrous. Sati assures her that she knows the enmity between her father and Mahadev and will not do anything to make it worse. Meanwhile, Shilaad wants to take Nandi with him and Mahadev agrees, but Nandi does not want to leave Mahadev.

Nandi leaves Mahadev against his will. Shilaad comes back to Mahadev to tell him of Nandi’s condition. In Daksh’s palace, Sati is surprised to see Madanike worshipping a Shivaling. Madanike praises Mahadev’s virtues and speaks of her worries for Sati, who is caught between Daksh and Mahadev.

Mahadev makes Nandi special by ensuring that devotees will henceforth whisper their prayers in his ears and he will convey them to Mahadev. In Daksh’s palace, while Revati complains to her mother about being unhappy in her marriage to Chandrama, Sati sets out to go with Madanike to fetch colours.

Madanike sees a bad omen and doesn’t want to take Sati with her to Rangraj. When they are alone, Sati again tells her that she has no place for Shiva in her heart. But a storm separates them while they are walking through the forest. Prasuti then sends out a search party for Sati.

At the time when two seasons meet, the demon Vrittasura unleashes a terrible storm and Sati, who is separated from Madanike, is caught in it. That is when Shiva himself comes to protect Sati from Vrittasura. Rishi Dadhichi and the sculptors also witness the magnificent power of Mahadev.

While Shiva is deep in trance, he is troubled by thoughts of Sati. She too is lost in Mahadev’s thoughts. Sati looks forward to the Mahamandal, longing to see Mahadev. Meanwhile, Indra tells Daksh that Shukracharya and his army is heading for the Mahamandal.

Smeared with ash, draped in animal hide, sitting atop a rock in the shamshan and drinking bhang (Mahadev’s Prasad), Mahadev is absorbed in his meditation amongst the Aghori ascetics. Narad Muni instigates Nandi to question Mahadev about bringing Devi Sati to Kailash. Withdrawn from the complexities of life, Mahadev smirks at Nandi’s question thinking about Sati, leaving behind the materialistic life for Kailash. On the other hand, Sati falls for Mahadev and confesses her love before Madanike.

Fearing the results of her love for Mahadev, Madanike scolds Sati. Sati says she cannot help her feelings for Shiva. Although worried, Madanike agrees to stand by her side. Rishi Dadhichi prepares a special place for Mahadev in the Mahamandal. Restless to meet Shiva again, Sati heads for Kailash.

Shiva is angry when he sees Sati in Kailash and forces her to return. Sati goes back saddened that he has refused her love. Meanwhile, Shukracharya believes that Shiva is on the side of the gods since he is going to the Mahamandal and he prepares his army for war.

Undeterred by Mahadev's rejection, Sati ascertains Madanike about bringing the Mahayogi out of his Vairagya. Preparing for Shaalimar and Tulsi's marriage, enamoured by Mahadev's love, Sati sees Shivaling in place of Shaalimar. Shukracharya questions Prajapati Daksh about inviting Lord Shiva in the Mahamandal. True to his words given to Maharishi Dadhichi, Mahadev embarks his presense in the Mahamandal meeting. But, as soon he advances towards his seat, Daksh gets his seat demolished.

As Mahadev approaches his seat, Daksh has it pulled away and destroyed. He continues to insult Shiva. He declares that Shiva’s Vairagya is against the principles of his reign. He then unleashes a terrible curse on Mahadev. It angers Shukracharya, who declares vengeance for the insult to Mahadev.

Mahadev is unaffected by Daksh’s curse that no one in his kingdom will worship him. Daksh sends written instructions to Sati and leaves for Brahma Lok. Sati is torn between her devotion for Mahadev and her loyalty to her parents. Later, Madanike asks her a question that leaves her speechless.

Just as Sati prepares to open her heart to her father, she is shocked by his letter, in which he threatens to go to any length to keep Mahadev out of her life. In Kailash, Narad Muni asks Mahadev why he does not accept Sati, with whom he has been united since the beginning of time. What is Mahadev’s answer?

Deeply upset, Sati tries to understand her mother’s feelings about her devotion to Mahadev. In Brahma Lok, Brahma tells his son Daksh that the union between Shiva and Sati has already been decided. But an arrogant Daksh vows to change that destiny with his powers.

Sati’s love for Mahadev keeps growing. She decides to seek out Rishi Dadhichi, who led her to Mahadev in the first place, and ask him to explain to her what is happening in her life. The Rishi tells her the moment for her to accept her destiny has come. The Rudraksha she first found holds the key.

Rishi Dadhichi asks Sati to touch the Shivaling which will end all the conflict in her mind. She obeys and finds that all her doubts and questions are answered. Brahma goes to Mahadev and asks him not to punish Sati for Daksh’s mistakes.

Prasuti scolds Madanike for encouraging Sati’s devotion to Mahadev. Sati decides to dance until Mahadev joins her. They dance in union, before he disappears. When Daksh arrives on the scene, Sati is still dancing for Mahadev. Sati later faints.

Sati faints on an image of Shiva drawn with colours. Daksh is furious and blames Madanike for everything and decides to punish him. In Kailash, Narad Muni continues with his efforts to make Mahadev accept Sati. Meanwhile, Rishi Kashyap makes a terrible prediction.

Rishi Kashyap informs Daksh that Sati has entered the Yoga Nidra state, after she and Mahadev danced together. He says she can only be awakened by Mahadev’s touch. Daksh refuses the solution and announces that he will give half his kingdom and powers to anyone who can awaken Sati.

Rishi Dadhichi and Kashyap find Mahadev in Yoga Nidra Samadhi. Nandi warns of trouble if they attempt to wake him. The Rishis are confused about what to do with Mahadev. Meanwhile, Daksh summons the Navagrahas, the nine planets, to awaken Sati; will they be successful?

Sati begins to show signs of slipping into Chir Yoga Nidra, from which she can never wake up. An arrogant Daksh believes he can revive Sati and begins to summon all his powers. Meanwhile, Mahadev emerges from his Samadhi and comes to Sati.

Sati is woken by Mahadev’s touch and is overjoyed to see him. But he asks her not to go against her father’s wishes. Sati explains to her mother that Shiva had only come to save Daksh from losing his kingdom. Prasuti responds angrily and asks Sati to first throw Shiva out of her heart.

Prasuti accuses Madanike of being disloyal to the family. Daksh also says that what she’s done cannot be pardoned. Sati manages to hand over the Shivaling to Madanike and pleads with her parents to stop Madanike from leaving. But they are unmoved.

Sati is still lost in Shiva’s thoughts. Prasuti assures her husband that it’s only a passing phase and Sati will get over it. She advises Sati that she must be truthful and tell her father that she has given up the delusions about Shiva. Sati is confused by conflicting thoughts.

Sati confesses her love for Mahadev to her father. An angry Daksh creates a Daksh Rekha around her and tells her that she or Shiva must never cross it. Unhappy, Sati tries to burn herself by crossing the line. Mahadev stops her and reminds her again of her duty to her father.

Revati is upset that Chandrama ignores her and prefers his other wife Rohini. Daksh tells Chandrama to give equal attention to Revati. When Chandrama doesn’t agree, Daksh puts a curse on him. Narad Muni pleads with Mahadev to do something as his silence is feeding Daksh’s arrogance.

An angry Mahadev sets out to destroy Daksh. The gods begin to fear that his anger may harm Sati. Narada rushes to Lord Vishnu asking him to help calm Mahadev. Even Brahma and Vishnu cannot do anything, because under Daksh’s law, they cannot worship Shiva. But Vishnu then comes up with an idea.

Lord Vishnu appears before Daksh and says he has upset the balance of the universe by destroying Chandrama and asks him to create a new planet in place of Chandrama. Meanwhile, Rishi Dadhichi announces that Shiva has taken his Rudra-roop. What calamities will it cause?

Sati is sent to bring soil from the River Saraswati for a planet that Daksh is creating. Goddess Lakshmi takes the form of Sati and comes to the palace. By the river, Sati meets two rishis, who ask her to help them with a Shiva puja. Lakshmi disappears after leaving a bunch of lotuses on the throne.

Narad Muni marvels at the miracles of Vishnu and Lakshmi, which they performed so that the Daksh Rekha could be removed and Sati could do the Shiva puja to calm Shiva’s anger. Narad tells Sati that she is Mahashakti, the other half of Mahadev. What will Sati do now?

Mahadev saves Chandrama from Daksh’s plan to create a new planet. Shiva wears the crescent moon in his hair to protect Chandrama from Daksh. Vishnu says the day will be celebrated as Maha Shivaratri, when Mahadev will grant the wishes of his devotees.

Sati is deeply saddened by Mahadev continuing to ignore her and shares her feelings with Madanike. The dancer consoles her and then requests Mahadev to meet Sati. They meet on the auspicious night of Maha Shivaratri.

Mahadev tells Sati that it is impossible for them to be together. She begs him not to punish her because of his enmity with her father. Mahadev then explains the reality of the human body and why she cannot marry him. Prajapati Daksh arrives on the scene and declares that Sati will be put to death.

Angered by Daksh, Mahadev aims his Trishul at him. But he lets Daksh go when Sati pleads for his life. Sati blames herself for hurting her father and seeks his forgiveness. Daksh expresses his happiness at getting his daughter back. But he is not done with Mahadev yet.

Prajapati Daksh swears that Sati will never be joined with Mahadev, but Anusuya asks her to keep the Nanda Vrat and attain the Lord through devotion. She also warns her that the Vrat must never be interrupted. Brahma and Vishnu try to get Mahadev to marry Sati for the good of the world.

Revati gives Sati the Nanda Vrat, the book which prescribes its rituals. But she is very disturbed when she is unable to open it. Revati assures her that the next day will be a new beginning. However, the next day, Daksh makes a shocking announcement about Sati’s fate.

Daksh assures Sati that her marriage will only be with his consent. Sati, meanwhile, follows the rituals of the Nanda Vrat and shapes a clay Shivaling. She goes to the graveyard to collect ash, when Mahadev appears before her. He tells her to give up the Nanda Vrat and vanishes even as she objects.

Sati tries to stop her parents from doing Jal Samadhi. But Daksh is sure that he has fulfilled his role as a father and must leave the world. As Daksh and Prasuti enter the water to end their lives, Sati’s sisters demand that she stop them by agreeing to the marriage her father will fix for her. Will Sati agree?

Sati promises Daksh that she will marry the man he chooses for her. Lakshmi expresses her concern about Sati to Vishnu. Vishnu asks her not to fear. Meanwhile, on earth, Sati decides to end her Nanda Vrat.

Daksh is delighted on learning about Sati's devotion in Lord Vishnu. Sati decides to immerse the Shivling. Tarakasur boasts of his power and learns from Narad that Mahadev is going to renounce his reclusive life. He vows to ruin Mahadev and Sati's upcoming marriage and is determined to kill Sati.

When Sati goes to immerse the Shivaling, Lakshmi asks Vishnu why she is being kept apart from Shiva when she was born to marry him. Vishnu asks her to wait for events to unfold.

Mahadev slays the monster which attacks Sati. On Nandi’s request, Mahadev asks Sati not to immerse the Shivaling. She agrees and hands over the sacred object to Nandi. It is a gesture that will change her destiny.

Daksh goes ahead with plans for Sati’s marriage. Revati tells Prasuti about Sati’s devotion to Mahadev and she conveys it to Daksh. Sati throws the Rudraksh away and orders the maids to close the windows so she does not have to see the Himalayas. Then, Prasuti sees the Trishul mark on Sati’s arm.

Prasuti tells Daksh about the Trishul mark on Sati’s arm. Enraged, Daksh demands an explanation and vows to destroy the symbol. Even as Rishi Kashyap goes in search of a cure, Sati decides to burn the mark on her arm.

Sati fails to burn away the mark on her arm. She requests Mahadev to stay out of her life. To Prasuti’s surprise, the mark on Sati’s arm vanishes on its own. Prajapati Daksh is shocked when all prospective grooms turn down Sati’s marriage proposal. What will Daksh do now?

Prasuti asks Prajapati Daksh to seek Brahma Dev’s help in Sati’s marriage. Brahma holds Daksh responsible for the problems, but promises to find a suitable match for Sati. She decides to return the Nanda Vrat book to Anusuya, even as Revati asks her to follow her heart.

Even as Tarakasur sends Gantak to kill Sati, Mahadev comes to her rescue. An angry Tarakasur beheads Gantak for not following his orders. Meanwhile, Daksh visits Angira Rishi with Sati’s marriage proposal for Sadhbhish. The Rishi agrees to accept Sati as his daughter-in -law on one condition.

Prajapati Daksh tells Sati that Rishi Angira will seek her hand in marriage for his son. She agrees to obey her father. Brahma, Vishnu and Lakshmi try to persuade Mahadev to stop the marriage because Adi Shakti cannot marry a mere mortal. Will Mahadev listen to them?

Narad muni, Chandrama and Nandi request Mahadev to visit Sati, but in vain. Prasuti forces Bhrugu Maharishi to take the responsibilities of Sati’s marriage. She insists Daksh to reconsider Sadbhish as an appropriate groom for Sati. Asur Chakri suggests Tarakasur to kill Sati before the marriage. Revati tries to convince Sati, but Sati faints on the day of Sadbhish’s visit.

Prajapati Daksh is worried about Sati’s health and also anxious about her marriage to Sadhbhish. Revati is also upset by her sister’s condition and prays to Mahadev to heal her before her marriage. Prasuti questions Daksh’s wisdom in arranging Sati’s marriage.

Sati's health deteriorates. Daksh is adamant on getting her married to an ugly Sadhbhish and prepares for the same. However, Prasuti is dejected about Daksh’s choice of groom for Sati. Later, she strongly protests against Daksh's decision. Prasuti is concerned about Sati's well-being.

Prasuti is unhappy with Daksh’s choice of groom for Sati and says it is a curse on her daughter to be married off to the ugly Sadhbhish. Daksh, however, is adamant. Prasuti tries to persuade Sati to reject the proposal, but she insists on obeying her father’s orders.

Lord Brahma tells Daksh that Jata can make Sadhbhish handsome, even as Prasuti protests that he is not a suitable groom for her daughter. Lakshmi appears before Daksh in the form of an old lady and asks the king to follow her barefoot to find Jata.

When Daksh reaches Jata’s abode, he has to first get past his servant who has vowed to humble the arrogant Prajapati. In the palace, Sati is so distracted by conflicting thoughts about Mahadev’s rejection and her loyalty to her father, she doesn’t notice her clothes catching fire during the puja.

Prajapati Daksh seeks Jata’s help to transform Sadhbhish into a handsome person. Jata’s servant tries to prevent Daksh’s wish being granted. But Jata promises Daksh that he will help him. Daksh is happy and returns to give the good news to Prasuti and Sati.

Prajapati Daksh welcomes Jata to his palace where he sings a song that mesmerises Sati. Later, Jata agrees to transform Sadhbhish on the condition that Sati stays with him until his work is finished. However, Daksh and Prasuti are against that. Will Jata finish what he promised to do?

Sati believes the music she heard is a blessing from the gods and feels healed. Daksh, meanwhile, asks Jata to complete his task. Daksh tells Prasuti that though Jata is arrogant, he is a skilled sculptor. On her father’s request, Sati asks Jata to work on transforming Sadhbhish.

Jata asks Sati to stay around him, while he is engaged in sculpting a figure of Sadhbhish. Jata’s servant reveals that his master is none other than Mahadev himself. Sati is again lost in thoughts of Mahadev and expresses her unhappiness at having to marry Sadhbhish.

Jata refuses the comforts of the palace and wishes to stay in a village. There, a small boy stands on a Shivaling while reaching for a Bilva fruit. The villagers curse the boy for disrespecting the idol, but Mahadev appears before him and grants him two boons.

Jata arrives at Sukarna’s house, carrying fruits and toys, and introduces himself as his maternal uncle. Sukarna’s mother knows it is Mahadev. Sukarna doesn’t want Jata to leave, but his servant says he must go so he can bring him an aunt. Meanwhile, a crocodile is about to attack Sati.

Jata’s servant Sevakram tells Sati the story of Jata’s love for a princess who betrayed him. Sati, in turn, tells Sevakram about her connection with Mahadev. A rishi warns Daksh to marry off Sati at the earliest. Daksh seeks Jata’s advice to ensure Sati’s welfare.

Sati sees Mahadev in Jata and he reveals that he has come to earth as a sculptor. He assures her of his immense love for her and says he has had to sacrifice his love for her welfare. Sati is angry at Mahadev for renouncing her. He, in turn, reminds her of her promise and loyalty to Daksh.

Sati is angry when Mahadev insists on her marrying Sadhbhish. She tells Revati the truth about Jata and Revati asks her to marry Mahadev. Sati pleads with Jata to use his powers as Mahadev and stop her marriage with Sadhbhish.

Prajapati Daksh and Prasuti are pleased by the new image of Sadhbhish. Even Sati appreciates Jata’s work. As Jata is leaving, Daksh asks him to create an idol of Shiva which can be displayed at Sati’s upcoming wedding with Sadhbhish.

Sati is pursued by Sadhbhish, who has a monster within him. Rishi Dadhichi is not able to help Sati, but Mahadev slays the monster. Sati returns to the palace and the marriage rituals begin. But Sadhbhish’s actions leave everyone shocked.

Sadhbhish confesses his guilt to Prajapati Daksh and Sati. His attractive image sculpted by Jata changes back to his original ugliness. Daksh is furious and curses him and his father Angira Rishi. Sati begins to weep before a Mahadev idol when her father appears.

Sati tells Revati that Mahadev had arrived on earth only for her and that she wishes to go with him to Kailash. But Jata advises her to obey her father. Daksh goes ahead with the marriage plans for Sati and insists that all his citizens should attend.

Joyous after her meeting with Jata, Sati decides to take his advice. Rishi Kashyap is annoyed by Daksh’s arrogance and predicts that Sati’s marriage will only be with Lord Shiva. Rishi Atri reveals Jata’s real identity to Daksh. How will Daksh respond?

Prasuti tries to enlighten Daksh about Lord Shiva’s real nature, expressing her desire that her daughter should be united with Mahadev. But Daksh is set in his opposition to Mahadev. He is not willing to listen to Rishi Kashyap or Revati. What will Sati’s decision be?

Daksh wants to conduct Sati’s marriage quickly. Prasuti is in despair and prays to Lord Shiva to protect Sati. Rishi Kashyap, Revati and Aditi also join in the prayers. While Daksh goes about organizing a Swayamvar for Sati, her destiny seems already decided.

Daksh is furious to see that Sati has garlanded an idol of Lord Shiva. Sati is in deep prayer and Mahadev, moved by her devotion, appears before her. Sati is overjoyed to see the Lord, but Daksh again declares his opposition to him and attacks Mahadev with his words.

Prajapati Daksh drags Sati away from the marriage venue. Brahma and Vishnu appear before Daksh and insist that he should give Sati in marriage to Shiva. Daksh has no option but to agree and the marriage of Shiva and Sati takes place.

Lord Vishnu and Brahma wish Mahadev and Sati on the auspicious occasion. Lord Shiva asks Sati to seek the blessing of her parents. Prasuti blesses the bride and groom with all her heart. But when Sati turns to Daksh, his blessings are half-hearted.

After their marriage, Sati tells Mahadev that her every desire has been fulfilled. She apologises to him for all the humiliation he has suffered. The new bride also learns that Mahadev would want to live amidst nature, and not in the confines of a palace.

Vijaya, Sati’s sister, arrives just as the wedding feast is being planned. She taunts Shiva for making his home in the Himalayas. Nandi, Pret, Kan and others from Kailash come to the wedding feast. But it ends in chaos.

The guests from Kailash don’t know the ways of the palace, but Mahadev is happy to eat with them. Vijaya wishes to break Mahadev and Sati's marriage and shares her plans with Daksh. Sati apologises to Daksh for marrying against his will, and he consoles her. But Daksh has other plans.

On Daksh’s invitation, Mahadev decides to attend his yagna before leaving for Kailash. Vijaya keeps trying to influence Sati against Mahadev. Rishi Bhrigu predicts that there will be faults in Sati's married life. Mahadev is taken aback when he arrives at the yagna.

Daksh stops Mahadev from participating in the yagna, saying that with the animal skin around his waist and the snake around his neck, he is not clean enough to attend the ritual. Although he is unable to participate in the yagna, the gods appear and present the offerings made to the hawan to Mahadev.

Vijaya asks Daksh to persuade Lord Shiva to stay on in the palace with Sati. Daksh has a change of heart and requests Shiva to stay. Mahadev leaves the decision to Sati. Tarakasur, meanwhile, aware that his death will be at the hands of a child born to Sati, plans to attack Lord Shiva and Sati.

Sati does not wish to stay at the palace and wants to leave for Kailash with her consort at the earliest. Daksh agrees and Prasuti blesses Sati. On learning about Sati's departure, Rishi Brighu tells Daksh that it is not an auspicious move. Will the prediction come true?

The waters of the Saraswati river rise up in the path of Mahadev and Sati. He dips his foot in the river and Saraswati appears before them. Mahavev gives Saraswati a boon and declares that the spot would become the holy Tirthraj. Mahadev and Sati cherish their time together before she bids goodbye to her family.

Sati’s sisters bid her a sad farewell. Daksh is still angry because his daughter is departing with his curses, rather than his blessings. Vijaya reminds her father that he must take revenge on Shiva. Daksh assures her that it is the sole purpose of his life.

Sati assures Prasuti that she will perform her marital duties perfectly. Daksh gifts some luxurious things to Shiva as Sati is used to live a royal life. But Shiva refuses to accept the gifts, saying that being a demigod Sati will not require these things. Vijaya asks Sati not to become callous like Lord Shiva. Sati leaves her family along with Lord Shiva with gloomy eyes.

Sati makes three promises to Lord Shiva: she will obey him at all times; she will never lie to him; and she will never hide anything from him. Rishi Atharva brings his scriptures to Lord Shiva, who declares they will henceforth become the Atharva Veda. Lord Brahma’s sons are angered by this.

Saraswati is made the judge for the debate between Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma’s sons. Lord Brahma intervenes and orders his sons to accept Rishi Atharva’s work as the fourth Veda. They apologise to Sati and accept the Veda. But when Brahma’s sons praise Mahadev, Daksh puts a curse on them.

Chitrasur disguises himself as Mahadev and comes to kill Sati. Lord Shiva is enraged and beheads the asura. Sati is scared to see Lord Shiva’s anger. Tarakasur continues his attacks on the gods in order to become the ruler of the heavens.

Sati enters Kailash after performing the necessary rituals in the presence of Lord Brahma, Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. She faints when she sits in Mahadev’s meditation seat. Lord Shiva gives Yoga Vidya to Sati to make her aware of her powers

Rati and Kamdev want to decorate Kailash for the union of Shiv and Shakti and Mahadev agrees. Sati awaits the moment with eager anticipation. Tarakasur calls out to the gods to come and fight him. Mahadev arrives to stop the war, but fails to convince Tarakasur.

Lord Shiva saves the gods from Tarakasur. Sati, however, is upset with him for leaving her alone on the first night of their marriage. Lord Shiva cheers her up by staging a funny drama, roping in Nandi. It is the beginning of Natya Sastra.

Both Mahadev and Daksh are invited to a yagna at Brahma's abode. Mahadev comes forward to bless Daksh. But he turns away and denounces Shiva. He announces a major yagna, to which Mahadev will not be invited. Meanwhile, Tarakasur’s son Vidyunmali summons Shiva and asks him to be his bodyguard, keeping death away.

Tarakasur covers the sun and Sati prays to Lord Shiva and asks him to save mankind from the demon. But he is in the service of Vidyunmali. Sati asks Vidyunmali to release Lord Shiva. He agrees, but on one condition: his father, Tarakasur, must be freed from his bondage.

Sati is reluctant to believe that Rama is a god and that he is virtuous. She takes the form of Sita to test him. But Rama realizes who she is. When Shiva learns this, he is angry and says he cannot consider her his wife. Meanwhile, Vijaya plots to make Sati come to her father’s yagna without Shiva.

Sati decides to test Sri Ram to find out if he is God. However, Sri Ram learns she is Sati. Lord Shiva is livid with Sati and refuses to consider her his wife. Meanwhile, Narad Muni rewards Tarakasur for saving his veena and grants him a boon. Vijaya plots to take Sati to Yagya without Lord Shiva.

Tarakasur disguises himself as Narad Muni and persuades Sati to go to her father’s yagna without Lord Shiva. Vijaya, too, convinces Sati. Then she overhears Saptrishi Bhrigu say that the whole universe will be destroyed if Sati comes to the yagna without Lord Shiva and she is scared.

Lord Shiva is pleased with Shukracharya’s penance and grants him the boon of Sanjeevni Vidya. Sati wishes to go to Daksh’s yagna with Lord Shiva; but he refuses to go without being formally invited. Sati is set on going and argues with Lord Shiva about it.

She then decides to give up her life for the sake of Mahadev and attempts to jump into the fire, but Prasuti stops her. Mahadev is angered by what is happening to Sati.

Daksh’s ceremony is ruined. Unable to stand her father’s atrocities, Sati decides to end her life in the fire. She prays to the Agni Devta to consume her, but the fire god refuses.

Lord Shiva assumes the form of Kalbhairav, defeats the asuras and blesses Rishi Dadhichi. The two of them establish a Shakti Peetha in one of the places where Sati’s remains have fallen; that is Kashi. Tarakasur commands the Earth to swallow up the other remains, or ‘pind’ of Shakti.

When the Earth refuses to obey Tarakasur and destroy Sati’s remains, he threatens to demolish the Planet. Failing to stop Tarakasur, Shukracharya asks the Earth to send Sati’s remains to Lord Shiva. He rejoices at seeing Sati in front of him. But Tarakasur’s attack on Earth seems unstoppable.
