Regarded as jinx by astrologers, young Tulsidas is abandoned by his parents at a Mandir and taken in by a childless woman, who ends up losing her husband that very day. She nevertheless decides to adopt him despite of pressure from the community. Years later she passes away and he goes to live in an upper-caste Ashram much to the chagrin of Ravidutt Mishra. This is where he grows up, recites Sanskrit Shloks about Bhagwan Ramji incurring the wrath of Shri Kalyug, who instructs Kamdev to incite him with lust so much so that Tulsidas gives up on his work, gets married to Ratnavati and spends all his time with her. But this does not last very long, both get separated, and he returns back to the task he has taken this birth for - little knowing that Shri Kalyug has plans that will not only discredit him but also endanger both their lives.
