Over time, they gradually discover each other's basic qualities and become admirers. They spend weekends visiting beautiful places together to deepen their understanding. Lily's mother is the first to notice the love blossoming between her daughter and Arun. Despite Arun being deeply in love with Lily, concerns arise due to their differing social statuses. Despite these worries, Arun's father approves and proposes to Lily's mother, suggesting that their children be, allowed to marry.

When everything is going well, Lily falls ill and is discovered to have leukemia. Even though Lily and Arun act as if nothing was wrong, everyone tries to save her. Everything seems fine for a while.
