When his father and mother see how close they are, they send him to boarding school. After coming back from school Shaurya wants to marry Kashi. But his parents have already fixed his marriage with Beyjanti, though, at the end he and Kashi do get engaged. He is right now played by Gautam Rode
Beyjanti (Rosita Lucia) is one of Kashi's best friends and sticks up for her when she sees someone doing something wrong to her. She also is friends with Shaurya. Beyjanti is really stubborn, spoiled and ill-tempered. She doesn't do that well in school; she went to school because Kashi went to school. After the leap Beyjanti is really excited to get married to Shaurya, but she later realizes that Kashi and Shaurya love each other, and it's been evident since their childhood. She calls off the engagement and wants Shaurya and Kashi to get married. She was played by Lileana Chacón when she was turn older.
Mangat Ram (Sunil Chauhan) is the elder brother of Parbatram and he pulls a cycle rickshaw to earn his living.

He loves Kashi very much and takes care of Ishwari.
Jai Devi (Diksha Thakur) is the wife of Mangat Ram. She is a very clever woman and always tell curse words to Parbat and his family. She is a self-proclaimed ruler of the house and makes her husband dance on her fingertips.
Ganga, Chhotu and Kallu are the children of Mangat Ram and Jai Devi. All of them love Kashi very much and all four kids are best friends.
Kalicharan is the younger brother of Parbatram. He has always dreamed to live a luxurious life and hated the village life. One day he robbed the house taking all the "valuables" of the poor family and fled the house and village without getting unnoticed.
Sureeli is the wife of Kalicharan and feels very neglected in the house after her husband left the house.She is a very simple woman and passes her time by housework (Jhadu, Pochha & Bartan) and playing with Kashi.
Lakshmi (Poonam Joshi) is the only sister of the three brothers and is mentally challenged. Though being a mental patient, everybody in the family loves her except Jaidevi.
