She crafted a unique plan to befriend the group, to understand their weaknesses and then destroy them. Roshni managed to knock off Zara, Nihal and Roy. But Gauri found out about her real identity before she can get her hands off on Yudi. The Gang captured her and tortured her brutally as well. Nikhil decided to stand by her. Roshni also has a friend in 'Shivani' who is in love with Nikhil. She disliked Nikhil's concern for Roshni. Roshni somehow gathers strength and made a comeback at Regents College and continued her revenge. She managed to knock out Yudi by this time.

He was also supposed to be in love with his elder sister Neha too. Roshni reached a point where everyone betrayed her. Gauti killed Nihal by shooting and framed Roshni falsely for her death. Shivani testified against her. It came out that Gauti was a step brother of Gauri and hates her. In a turn of events, Gauti starts blackmailing Gauri. Seeing no way out, Gauri strikes a deal with Nikhil to get Roshni out from prison if only he could foil Gauti's plans.
Roshni knew about Gauti's misdeeds. Also she learned that Gauti was the real murderer of her elder sister Neha. Gauti was actually a womanizer who plays safe initially and uses this to charm ladies. Neha never showed interest in Gauti. Gauti forced himself upon her, and Neha slapped him. He responded by throwing Neha off the terrace. Gauri tried to kill Roshni again. But Roshni survived and schemes to trap Gauri and her gang. The gang is captured after being drugged. Roshni and Nikhil sets up a chamber in Regents College full of traps. Roshni forced each member of the gang to confess their crimes. It is then revealed, that the actual murderers of Neha wasn't Gauti alone but 'Paanch' themselves. Everyone is arrested except Gauri and Gauti who tried to knock each other off in order to survive and fell off the cliff. One of them died at the spot.
