Season 1

Timnasa, an evil enchantress and the queen of Kaal Lok (Dark Realm), begins a quest to rule the whole universe and become the most powerful and evil entity. She attacks and destroys the Pari Lok (Fairy Realm), but Baalveer saves the surviving fairies, who are Masti Pari (Fun Fairy), Pani Pari (Water Fairy), Vayu Pari (Wind Fairy), Jwala Pari (Fire Fairy), Dhwani Pari (Sound Fairy), Netra Pari (Vision Fairy), Saral Pari (Simple Fairy) and the leader of the Fairies, Baal Pari (Tress Fairy) who is also Baalveer's adoptive mother. They take refuge in Veer Lok (Brave Realm) whose leader is a white lion, Shaurya. Baalveer becomes weaker as he was injured in the attack. On Shaurya's instructions, Baalveer goes to Earth as Dev, with the fairies as his sisters, to find the next Baalveer, as he needs help to fight Timnasa. Timnasa also learns of the new Baalveer.

The new Baalveer is a very mischievous ten-year-old boy named Vivaan. Soon, Baalveer finds and discloses his reality to Vivaan and takes him to Veer Lok where he is made the 'Junior Baalveer'. Both the Baalveers and the members of Veer Lok cross all the hurdles and fight Timnasa and defeat her everytime.

A long time ago, Timnasa had captured Sarvakaal, a monstrous sage who taught Timnasa black magic, as he knows the identity of the person who'll kill Timnasa. However, he refuses to reveal his identity. Baalveer finds Sarvakaal's prison and Timnasa's past, about how she was banished from Pari Lok (where she was a Pari and was made Baalveer for a day) because of her evil and egoistic intentions.

Baalveer acknowledges this and pretends to lose his powers and memory and stays as a commoner with Vivaan and his family as Debu. He acquires a new avatar, Nakabposh. He befriends Ananya, a girl who is threatened by Timnasa and also receives help from Sarvakaal. They together go to Earth to find the hidden power which is destined to kill Timnasa.

While doing so, it is revealed that Vivaan is Ananya's long-lost brother and their biological mother is Devaki, the former queen of Shwet Lok (White Realm) which Timnasa had captured. Vivaan is heart-broken as he realizes that Karuna is not her real mother and his entire life has been a lie. But Vivaan overcomes this and the trio form 'Team Shadow'. Vivaan is the hidden power who is destined to kill Timnasa and he overcomes the hurdles and takes Sarvakaal's infinite energy. By this new power he puts an end to Timnasa's trinity except Tauba Tauba. During the battle, Masti Pari gets killed by Bhaymar and Vayu Pari and Jwala Pari sacrifice themselves as Timnasa's weapons hit them, to protect the Earth.

Later, when Debu opens the secret message of Timnasa, which she had handed over to him before her death, Timnasa's spirit tells Debu that his biological parents were killed by Shaurya and the fairies.

Season 2

The new season unveils the underwater kingdom of Shinkai, which is ruled by Jalraj Kaikos. The commander-in-chief Bambaal plots to rule over the whole universe, along with his sidekick Milsa.

Bambaal and Shaurya reveal the story of a chemical scientist of the Veer Lok, named Jaikaas who had turned evil and plotted to make a weapon that would destroy the earth in 2020. He was stopped by Shaurya and hence he tried to escape with his two newborn sons. Shaurya attacked Jaikaas and one son fell in a desert while Jaikaas landed at sea, to Milsa and the Baalveers, respectively. Bambaal tells about an egg in Shinkai, and that a man will be born from it, prophesied to be the ultimate.

It is revealed that the son who fell in the desert was the Senior Baalveer (which he is not allowed to know) and Jaikaas, before dying, protected his son who fell with him in the sea by putting him in an egg and he is the one Bambaal awaits. When he comes out of the egg he is named as Ray.

Debu wants to know about his past from Shaurya and Baalpari, but he fails and finally gives up. Baalveers capture Milsa but Bambaal secretly kills her to hide his identity from Debu and Vivaan. Baalveer tells Vivaan about him being Nakabposh leaving him shocked. Ray's full powers are unleashed by Debu's blood after he threatens him for Vivaan's life.

After a series of incidents, Baalveer captures Bambaal and Ananya gets to know that Debu is the other Baalveer.

After knowing Debu's truth, Ananya demands of becoming a fairy. Baal Pari tells Ananya, that if Shaurya agrees, she will become a fairy. In Veer Lok, Bambaal learns about Jaikaas, Ray and Baalveer. Baal Pari informs Shaurya about this and they announce a death sentence for Bambaal, leaving Baalveer suspicious about his decision.

Bambaal is freed by Ray and he discloses Shaurya's secret to Baalveer, expecting that he will attack Shaurya. Instead, Baalveer gets enraged, attacks and kills Bambaal. He also gets to know that Ray is the actual evil Shinkai entity.

Ananya becomes a fairy in Veer Lok. Jwala Pari and Vayu Pari also return in their new avatar.

Ray, along with Bhaymaar, revives Timnasa and Akroor, to avenge the Baalveers and creates obstacles for the them but the fairies and Baalveers eventually celebrate their victory every time, after restoring peace and righteousness everywhere.
