But despite trying hard to study and prove herself, Durga couldn't reach Yashpal's expectations.Yashpal who works as a mere school peon has a very progressive viewpoint when it comes to educating a girl or a boy – unlike his other relatives.

Besides enjoying her childhood, Durga tried very hard to fulfill her father's dream. But somehow she just couldn't understand the calculations and hence always found herself confused between alphabets and numbers. Influenced by her coach, Rana sir, Yaspal allows Durga to be an athlete. Durga emerges as the winner in the national race but her competitor, Arti who secures the 2nd position gets drugs mixed in her food.
