Following Dr. Sapna Shah's marriage and departure from the hospital, three new interns enter the series: Dr. Rahul Garewal, Dr. Muskaan Chadda, and Dr. Nikita Malhotra. Although Muskaan and Rahul's families arrange their marriage, they initially disagree, with Muskaan later falling for Armaan and Rahul befriending Riddhima. Eventually, Muskaan and Rahul fall in love before breaking up due to difficulties, and Nikita develops feelings for senior doctor Dr. Abhimanyu Modi. The season concludes on a cliffhanger with Riddhima and Armaan getting shot in a shootout immediately after becoming engaged, alongside the return of Abhimanyu's estranged wife Jiah.
