Shraddha was an Indian television series which aired on STAR Plus channel. It is a tale about the Jaiswal family based in Ujjain.
Shraddha is the story of a girl named Shraddha (Neha Jhanpandit) who resides in Ujjain with her family – parents, chacha-chachi, 2 older brothers and 2 sisters-in-law. She has another brother who studies in Pune. Shraddha is going to get married to Amit(Gaurav Vadehra) whom her parents have selected for her. Both of them like each other as well. Shraddha’s actual aim in life is to fulfill her parent’s dreams to visit the char dhams and complete the ritual taken forth by ancestors of their family. In this time, Shraddha’s third brother visits the family. Life seems very good but Shraddha doesn’t know her sisters-in-law and middle brother are actually conspiring against them and doesn’t want her parents to go to the pilgrimage and so money is saved.
Meanwhile, her chacha-chachi instigates Ashok (third brother, played by (Siddharth Sethi) to start a business of his own. They give him money but also steal it thus proving them great and also saving their money. Finally Shraddha’s parents hand him over their pilgrimage money. Shraddha gets upset as she doesn’t want her parent’s dream to get ruined and so she asks Amit to make their marriage ceremony simple. Amit and his parents agree and so the pilgrimage money is saved and the money stored for Shraddha’s wedding comes to Ashok. But a shocker comes when the pilgrimage money is stolen as well but it is actually done by Shraddha’s sisters-in-law and middle brother. Shraddha requests Ashok to hand over his business money to his parents but Ashok runs away from home.
So Shraddha takes the bold step to prove herself as a dutiful daughter and asks Amit to postpone their wedding. But Amit refuses and their marriage is broken. Shraddha feels guilty for hurting Amit. She chooses to go on with life with all the ill-treatment from her sisters-in-law and middle brother. She slowly learns her chacha-chachi too are mean and want to usurp their house. The only one she can call her own is her parents and eldest brother, Santosh (Kashif Khan). But life is once again mean to her when she meets Swayam (Barun Sobti) who says he is a photographer but actually wants to usurp their house to make a mall. He is the brother of Satya Sarkar who is in league with her chacha-chachi. In order to raise money, Shraddha accepts to work with him and became good friends but she is still unaware of the truth. Later his truth is exposed only after she gets the money. What’s more she also gets framed of being in an affair with him! Her family throws her out and even Santosh loses faith leaving Shraddha completely shattered. Her parents are very hurt with these things and leave house. They meet up with Shraddha in the temple and believe her. Together they go to stay with Pratima who is Shraddha’s friend.
