The Ahir mansion stood tall and imposing, a symbol of wealth, influence, and the legacy of Savita Ahir's iron will—though that will had long been a source of pain for some. Seventeen years had passed since Meera and her unborn son Mukul had been cast out, and life had moved forward for the rest of the family.
Yet the shadow of absence lingered heavily over the halls. Every member, young and old, carried a quiet sorrow—an emptiness caused by missing Meera and her children. Even the youngest generation, now teenagers and children themselves, felt the weight of cousins they had never met.

Family Sentiment
Though the family flourished professionally, a pervasive longing for Meera and her children remained:
The elder generation, despite their accomplishments, strongly resented Savita Ahir for the cruelty that had cast Meera and the unborn Mukul away.
Every celebration and gathering was tempered with an unspoken void; cousins and siblings felt incomplete without their missing family.
Even the youngest generation, growing up hearing stories, dreamed of the cousins they had never met, their hearts quietly tethered to an absent branch of the family.
Raghav's Silent Pursuit
Despite his responsibilities, Raghav remained focused on finding his missing family. His coma had not diminished his resolve; in fact, it sharpened it. Over the past seven years:
He built a covert intelligence network across Asia, quietly monitoring corporate and social movements.
He controlled multiple sectors of the Asian business market, using his influence subtly to uncover leads about Meera and the children.
Every decision, investment, and alliance was strategically aligned to bring him closer to the truth of their whereabouts.
Raghav's heart remained loyal, guided by the hope that one day, the Ahir family would be whole again—that Meera, Mukul, and the lost children would return, and Savita's misdeeds would finally be addressed.
The Unseen Threads
Though seventeen years had passed, fate had not abandoned them. Unbeknownst to the Ahir family:
Mukul was alive, trained, and growing in strength.
The six destined companions were prepared, waiting alongside him.
The Raichand–Malhotra network had located Avni, and her mission to reunite with Mukul and track the missing Ahir children was underway.
The Ahir household, brimming with power, wealth, and influence, remained unaware that the threads of destiny were silently converging, and that the lost children were closer than anyone imagined.
