She had sour relationship with her mother, Piyali, after the tragic death of her brother, Jay. Neil is the happy-go-lucky guy and also chief copy-writer of the agency.[5]
Samaira told Radhika to work at Bird Song but her father, Dilip, against this idea. Saral proposed Radhika and they got engaged. Radhika arrived at Mumbai and after a while Piyali as the president of Bird Song decided to hand her a job without an interview. It takes her quite a time to adjust but Neil always cheers her up and helps her out.
After having a big fight with Piyali, Samaira encountered the mysterious guy, Arjun. She was flustered when he suddenly joined her ad agency as the new business operations head. She tried to avoid him initially but Arjun kept coming back to her and wooed her with his charms.
One day Radhika lands up at an unknown place without any money. Neil asks Samaira to choose between him and Arjun. Samaira leaves Neil's house while Radhika is thrown out of the house .Samaira befriends her and takes Radhika in with her. The two quickly become best friends. Arjun quickly arranged a new house for Samaira and offered the house in exchange for a date. She turned down his offer but later accepted to help Radhika find a place to stay.
Samaira confides in her about her mother issues and Radhika tries to help her out. Arjun disiked Radhika's interference as he and Samaira started dating and made their relationship official to her parents. Things become difficult as Neil harbours romantic feelings for Sam. Unbeknownst, Radhika found out that Arjun was two-timing Samaira and Bonnie. She thus tried all hook and crook to keep him away from Samaira. After spending time alone with Arjun, she realized that Arjun is a good person. Meanwhile, Neil tried to make Samaira believe in love. Samaira thanked Neil for his support.
Later it is revealed that Samaira's father, Samrat, had an extra-marital affair with Nandini, Arjun's sister. Nandini was devastated when Samrat abandoned her.
