Tum Dena Saath Mera is an Indian soap opera which premiered on Life OK on 19 December 2011 and ran until 21 April 2012. The series chronicles the lives of newlyweds Abhilasha and Manan, who move to Mumbai, revolving around their romance and their lives in metropolitan Mumbai.

In the series Abhilasha (born 19 November 1992) lives in the small town of Sagar and is married to Manan (born 2 April 1989), who was raised in Bhopal. A naïve, emotionally-dependent woman, she desires love and a simple life. When they return to Manan's home in Bhopal after their wedding, Manan receives an offer of a job in Mumbai. Stubborn and ambitious, he has lost sight of the simple pleasures around him. They begin their arranged marriage in Mumbai, to which Abhilasha has difficulty adjusting.

In the city, Abhilasha and Manan live with Manan's childhood friend (Siddharth Varma) and his roommate in their bachelor pad; a neighbour, Mrs. Zariwala, thinks Abhilasha is a girlfriend or a prostitute. Before he leaves for work Manan cautions Abhilasha against letting strangers in and leaving the apartment, but she admits a vacuum saleswoman who steals her earrings. Manan's concern for Abhilasha is criticised by his boss, Shaila Mehta. Manan and Abhilasha quarrel and make up.

Abhilasha is crying the next day, overwhelmed by the wild behaviour of Siddharth's friends. Manan moves to Goregaon; when Abhilasha finds a couple having sex in Manan's bedroom, she prepares to return to Bhopal. When Manan receives a promotion the next day, she decides to stay.

Manan faces financial difficulty in trying to buy a house. In Bhopal Riddhi's marriage proposals fail because of high dowry demands, creating rifts in the family. Abhilasha wins ₹25,000 in a television quiz contest; her mother-in-law is suspicious when she tells her that she wants to open a bank account, until Abhilasha buys Sumit a laptop computer. Riddhi finds a suitable match, but the groom's father calls off the marriage. Riddhi becomes depressed, and her mother plans to send her to family in Mumbai.

When Manan finds a house, Abhilasha is reluctant to buy it because she sympathizes with its owners. When they are ready to buy it, the mortgage lender refuses to lend Manan the promised amount. Manan's father agrees to help.

Manan asks Abhilasha to wear a revealing dress for the house-warming party, but she is reluctant and wears a sari. They argue after the party, and Manan joins Deep and Siddharth at a club. He meets the drunk Ria Oberoi, and helps her to her hotel room. Abhilasha looks for Manan at the hotel, and Deep keeps him from being caught with Ria.
