Drama Ki Andar Ki Poori Story
Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai ki full story bohot hi gehri, jazbati aur twists se bhari hui hai. Is kahani ki shuruat Udaipur ke ek Marwari joint family se hoti hai, jahan Akshara Maheshwari aur Naitik Singhania ki arrange marriage hoti hai. Shuruat mein dono ke beech thodi jhijhak hoti hai, lekin waqt ke sath dono mein gehra pyar ho jata hai. Unka ek beta Naksh aur beti Naira hoti hai. Kahani mein pehla bada twist tab aata hai jab Naitik coma mein chala jata hai aur Akshara akele poore parivar aur business ko sambhalti hai. Naitik ke theek hone ke baad khushiyan laut-ti hain, lekin Bhabhimaa ke pati ki maut ka ilzam Akshara par lag jata hai, jiski wajah se Akshara aur Naitik ko parivar chhod kar Cape Town jaana padta hai.
Saalon baad, unka beta Naksh dono parivaroon ko milata hai aur sab Udaipur wapas aate hain. Yahan se second generation shuru hoti hai. Naira kisi wajah se ghar se bhaag kar Rishikesh chali jati hai, jahan uski mulaqat Kartik Goenka se hoti hai. Kartik aur Naira (Kaira) ki dushmani pehle dosti aur phir intense love mein badal jati hai. Dono ki shadi Goenka parivar mein hoti hai, jahan unhe roz naye parivarik jhagdo, mis-understandings aur saas-bahu ke dramon ka samna karna padta hai. Naira ek bete Kairav aur beti Akshara ko janam deti hai. Lekin ek dardnak cliffhanger twist mein, Naira ka ek accident mein dehaant ho jata hai. Kartik bilkul toot jata hai, par parivar ke liye woh Naira jaisi dikhne wali Sirat (ek boxer) se shadi karta hai, aur phir kuch samay baad Kartik aur Sirat dono ki maut ho jati hai.
Ab kahani teesri generation par aati hai, jahan Naira ki beti Akshara aur Sirat ki beti Aarohi badi hoti hain. Dono ko ek hi ladke, yaani Dr. Abhimanyu Birla se pyar ho jata hai. Abhimanyu sirf Akshara se pyar karta hai. Bohot saare jhagdo aur parivarik dushmani ke baad Abhimanyu aur Akshara ki shadi hoti hai, lekin unka rishta hamesha uthal-puthal se bhara rehta hai. Ek accident mein unka beta Abhir kho jata hai aur unka divorce ho jata hai. Akshara baad mein Abhinav Sharma se shadi kar leti hai jo use mushkil waqt mein sahara deta hai. Jab Abhinav ki maut hoti hai, toh Abhimanyu aur Akshara phir milne wale hote hain, par ek aur fatal car accident mein Abhimanyu aur unka beta Abhir maare jaate hain. Pregnant Akshara akele hi apni beti Abhira ko janam deti hai aur Mussoorie mein set ho jati hai.
Yahan se current fourth generation ki shuruat hoti hai. Abhira badi ho kar apni maa Akshara ki tarah lawyer banna chahti hai. Mussoorie mein uski mulaqat Armaan Poddar se hoti hai jo Poddar parivar ka sanskari aur zimmedar beta hai. Armaan actually Abhira ki cousin sister Ruhi (Aarohi ki beti) se pyar karta hai, lekin halaat kuch aise bante hain ki ek gunde se Abhira ki jaan bachate hue Akshara ki maut ho jati hai. Marte waqt Akshara Armaan se kehti hai ki woh Abhira se shadi kare aur uski raksha kare. Armaan apne pyar Ruhi ki qurbani dekar Abhira se contract marriage kar leta hai aur use apne strict Poddar house (jahan Dadi sa ka raj chalta hai) le aata hai. Abhira ko parivar mein koi accept nahi karta, aur Ruhi ki shadi Armaan ke chhote bhai Rohit se ho jati hai, jisse ek complex love triangle ban jata hai. Abhira parivar ke tano aur court ke cases ko jhelte hue kaise apni jagah banati hai aur Armaan ke dil mein apne liye sacha pyar jagati hai, yahi is drama ka current main plot hai.
