Kinjal had to return back to Delhi after two days of her mother's demise for her examination. Kinjal coped with all the difficulties and won the gold medal for becoming the topper in Delhi University.

After finishing her graduation, Kinjal called her younger sister Pranjal to Delhi and rented an apartment in Mukherjee Nagar. There, the two sisters started their preparation to crack the aforementioned examination. While other girls used to visit their friends and family at regular intervals, the sisters always remained focused on their studies and did not go to their hometown even during the festive season.
