Uttaran is the story of two friends with diametrically opposite backgrounds. Tapasya a.k.a. Tapu (Bhairavi in Tamil) is the daughter of a wealthy aristocratic couple, Divya and Jogi Thakur; while Ichchha (Sindhu in Tamil) is the daughter of their poor, live-in domestic help, Damini (Thamarai in Tamil). Ichchha uses clothes and other possessions that are cast-off by Tapasya. In spite of the vast difference in status, the little girls become the best of friends. Jogi Thakur discovers that he had accidentally caused the death of Ichchha's father long ago. He feels guilt-stricken and decides to become Ichchha's foster father, giving her the best possible upbringing. However, jealousy creeps into the girls' relationship as Ichchha wins over Tapasya's family with her simple nature and good character. Divya's aunt Sumitra Devi, being resentful of Damini and Ichchha, also poisons Tapasya's mind against her friend.The beginning
The friends grow into adults. Rich and handsome Veer Singh Bundela enters their lives as a prospective husband for Tapasya. But Tapasya loves a man called Siddhartha Verma aka. Sid. She snubs Veer, who instead falls for simple and sweet Ichcha. He asks for the latter's hand in marriage, which shocks his and Tapasya's families. However, Jogi Thakur approves the relationship.
On seeing Ichcha so lucky as to enter a rich household, Tapasya becomes adamant on gaining Veer for herself. She dumps her boyfriend Sid. On the day of Ichcha's wedding, Tapasya slits her wrist and threatens to commit suicide if Veer is not married to her. Ichcha sacrifices her love for the sake of friendship. However, Damini tells Tapasya that the right to be Veer's wife has been given to her as Ichcha's, thus completing the cycle that started in their childhood. Tapasya, pretending to be Ichchha, marries Veer-- no one sees the bride's heavily veiled face at the ceremony. However, after discovering the truth, Veer doesn't accept Tapasya as his wife. Jogi Thakur is furious with Tapasya and says that he has only one daughter, Ichcha, from then.

After Jogi is discharged from the hospital, he goes to recuperate at a hill resort, with Divya and Damini in attendance. Meanwhile, Tapasya returns to her parents' house and humiliates Ichchha as much as she can. One day, Veer gives divorce papers to Tapasya and asks her to sign them.
