Plot
This television serial's storyline is based on the eternal love between Radha and Krishna.
The Series opens with Sridama (Krishna's devotee) cursing Radha. This was a part of cosmic play as it was time for Krishna to make his entry into the mortal world. Radha and Krishna are reborn in Barsana, Vrindavan and Mathura respectively. Krishna lives the life of an ordinary human with extraordinary powers.
Krishna is destined to kill Kamsa, knowing this Kamsa attacks Gokul knowing that Krishna lives there. Meanwhile Ayan (Rayana) (Radha's childhood friend)likes Radha and he try to separate Radha from Krishna. Krishna defeats Vyomasura, a demon whose marriage was fix with Radha.
Krishna takes Radha out of all humanly weaknesses like bhay(fear), moh (greed), krodh (anger), ghrina (hatred), irshya (envy/ jealousy), ahankar (pride/ arrogance) and heenbhavna (lack of self-confidence), after defeating each human weakness Radha comes closer to Krishna.
Radha was forced to marry her childhood friend Ayan. But finally Radha understands the true meaning of love after hearing the story of seven Avatars of Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi from Krishna. Radha also understands that her marriage is fake and eternally, she is Krishna's consort after Brahma completes Brahma Vivaah of Radha and Krishna in Goloka, just before Krishna leaves Barsana after Radha's coronation as Radharani.
In this human life apart from his love story with Radha, Krishna along with Balaram defeats the demons sent by Kamsa his uncle. Finally, Kamsa calls Krishna and Balarama to Mathura for killing them, but all in vain. Balarama kills Kamsa's eight brothers and Krishna kills Kamsa. Krishna's biological parents are freed from prison and Kamsa's imprisoned father Ugrasena is crowned king.
Now the Yadavas were moving to Dwaraka there new home. Balaram marries Revathi, whereas Krishna abducts and marries princess Rukmini on her consent. Krishna also marries Satyabhama and Jambavati. He then kills the evil Naraka (Narakasura) and his general Mura.
The show then focuses on the story of Mahabharata. Balarama informs Krishna about their cousins, the Pandavas who have escaped Lakshagriha which was organised by their evil cousins – the Kauravas, Duryodhana, his brother Dushasana, their uncle Shakuni and Duryodhana's friend Karna. He helps Panchala king Drupada arrange a Swayamvara for his daughter Draupadi, who was born from a yagya (Yagna means sacrificial fire). The third Pandava prince Arjuna wins Draupadi's svayamvara and marries her, however circumstances force Draupadi to marry all five Pandavas. Pandavas receive a new kingdom Indraprastha, faraway from Hastinapura (the Pandavas' original home) due to the conflict with the Kauravas – eldest of whom is Duryodhan.
Arjuna soon abducts and marries Krishna's sister Subhadra, whereas Krishna kills Pundra king Paundrak Vasudev, an impostor. The second Pandava Bhima also kills Magadha king Jarasandha. Pandavas soon perform Rajasuya Yagna where they gain supremacy over all of Aryavarta, however Krishna's cousin Shishupala interrupts the ceremony, only to be killed by Krishna.
Duryodhana organises a dice game with Shakuni wherein Pandavas lose all their wealth and are humiliated, while Krishna saves Draupadi from getting disrobed in the court. However, the Pandavas and Draupadi are exiled for 13 years. When they return, their rights are refused and hence starts the Kurukshetra War, where Arjuna receives from Krishna, the knowledge of Bhagvad Gita. Arjuna kills his grandfather Bhishma and Karna, Dhrishtadyumna kills the both Pandavas and Kauravas' tutor Dronacharya, Sahadeva kills Shakuni, whereas Bhima kills all the 100 Kauravas, with the war ending with the death of the last one – Duryodhana. Gandhari curses Krishna that just like her family, Yadava dynasty will also be destroyed. On the other hand, Radha and Krishna turn Ayan into a better person, and make him realise that they are eternal consorts, destined to be.
Radha and Krishna return to Dwarka. Krishna and Rukmini's son Pradyumna returns to Dwaraka and marries Rukmavati, and a son Aniruddha is born to them. To Jambavati and Krishna, a son Samba (Sambh) is born to her through the blessings of Lord Shiva, termed to be the reason for the Yadava destruction as cursed by Gandhari. Samba grows up to be short-tempered but loves his family, especially his mother, however, dislikes and hates Radha.
Samba, Aniruddha and Balarama's sons Nishatha and Ulmuka are soon sent to Gurukula along with Radha, and return some years later, as teens. Aniruddha is kept in captivity at Shonitapura, the kingdom of Banasura, by his daughter Usha. This soon results in a war between Krishna and Banasura, wherein Shiva has to fight for Banasura due to his boon, resulting in a faceoff between Krishna and Shiva. Krishna defeats Shiva and punishes Banasura for kidnapping his grandson. Soon, Aniruddha is married to Usha while Samba is married to Hastinapur's Kaurava princess, Duryodhana and Bhanumati Daughter's Lakshmanaa. As Samba had previously joined hands with Bana, he is cursed with leprosy by Krishna and Radha cures him.
After a few instances, Radha loses her memory, everything about her Krishna, Dwarka and others. She decides to leave dwaraka. Krishna tries his best to regain Radha's memory, he even danced but found no results. She left. On her way, she meets disguised lord Shiva and Parvati. Lord Shiva is disguised as sage Adiyogi. Radha decides to stay in his ashram. Krishna along with Samba, Jambavati and his wife leaves Dwaraka to meet Radha at sage Adiyogi's ashram. Radha's memory is regained after learning and falling in love with Krishna's Gopal avatar.
Krishna then starts to head towards Pataal Lok, where he needs to fight demons. To win over Pataal Loka, Krishna makes three friends namely Sheshnaag, Vasuki and Garuda.
Then the show portrays Shri Krishna married Devi Yamuna. Then Sambh gets punishment of his bad deeds and gets rid of the punishment using Mahamrityunjay Jaap. Radha becomes very excited for Holi and Sambh gets insulted in front of many girls by being pushed into water dyed in different colors. In anger, he challenges Radha. On the other side, Krishna gets angry with Radha on her statement of not playing Holi after Sambh's challenge to her. Krishna also tells Radha that it was going to be their last Holi on earth.
Parvati wants to learn dance from Krishna and Radha and the whole universe wants to see Krishna's dance. While dancing, Shankhchuda (Shankhchur) (rebirth of Sridama) comes near Krishna and watches him from a safe distance and Krishna gets angry on himself and starts doing Vibhatsya Raas. After many pleadings from Radha and Lord Shiva, Krishna calms down after Shankhchuda leaves. He then locks himself in his room for some days and Radha awaits him outside his room. Shankhchuda has a loving wife, Tulsi, who is his strength but he only uses her. With the help of Tulsi, Shankhchuda got immense strength. Radha in the disguise of Madhavi, goes to Tulsi to tell her what love is. Krishna takes the form of Shankhchuda and goes to Tulsi to defeat Shankhchuda. After Shankhchuda is killed, Tulsi feels cheated. She curses Krishna to become a stone. Krishna becomes a stone and Radha leaves everything and lives in a Rudra temple near Dwarka. She makes an idol thinking of Krishna in it. She promises Tulsi that if she frees Krishna, she will leave Krishna, but Tulsi refuses. Soon, the statue gets lost. The statue looked very real. It used to blink its eyes or smile. When Radha finally finds the statue, it turns into a living being, who introduces himself as Banke Bihari. Lord Shiva introduces Banke Bihari as a Virat Swaroop of Krishna, who will be remembered as the most loving form (Roop) of Krishna. Banke helps Radha in finding the statue and recurring Krishna. Sambh and Lakshmanaa accuses Radha to be mentally ill, and later asks her to leave Dwarka and go to the Ashram for cure. When Radha reaches the Ashram an asura named Dantavakra kidnaps her and takes her to Patal Loka. Later Balarama comes to Radha's rescue but in vain. Tulsi remembers her past and takes back her curse. But to do this she needs to change her form into a plant. She then marry Krishna in this form and is told to remain on earth in that swaroop. This displays Tulsi Vivaha. Krishna then returns, slays Dantavakra and saves Radha.
Later Radha declares herself as the biggest devotee (Bhakt), which invokes Hanuman. Hanuman gets furious as he is the biggest devotee. He decides to go to Dwaarka. On the way, he meets Krishna's mount (Vahana) Garud. Garud gets furious when Hanuman praises Rama. Meanwhile, Krishna tells Radha and Balram that a very important guest is coming to Dwarka. Hanuman remembers Ram in his prays and requests him to come before him. Krishna finally decides to meet his devotee Hanuman and takes Ram avatar to meet him. Hanuman gets mesmerized to see his Lord Ram. Radha prepares a feast for Hanuman to welcome him to Dwarka.
Hanuman relishes the feast prepared by Radha and gets happy. Hanuman introduces himself to Radha. However, the latter gets shocked to see a giant vaanar. She shouts for Krishna’s help. Radha asks Hanuman to prove that he is the universe’s biggest devotee. Hanuman challenges that all Dwarka citizens will chant Jai Sri Ram soon. However, Radha challenges that citizens and Hanuman will chant Jai Sri Krishna. Meanwhile, Krishna thinks he will enjoy the battle of devotion. Both hanuman and Radha proves that they both are the biggest devotees. Samba takes Lakshmana to a cave and says he will create problems for Krishna and the whole of Dwarka. Laxmana asks whom did they come to meet here. Samba says a powerful person is needed against Hanuman, people will blame Radha for winning by trick. Laxmana asks who is that powerful person. Samba says Mahadev bhakt Karmaphal Daata Shani. Laxmana says Shani dev’s Vakradrishti is on him, so he shouldn’t provoke Shani. He says he wants to take revenge on Krishna and Radha knows who will seek Shani's help. Shani warns Hanuman for challenging Radha and orders to leave Dwarka. However, Hanuman refuses to leave and gets ready to fight a battle with Shani and he defeated him as well as he beat Samba. Afterwards, Radha doubts Hanuman will have empathy but she was proven wrong when she saw Hanuman cared and nursed Shani back to health.
Goddess Alakshmi the elder sister of Goddess Lakshmi who is deemed to be the harbinger of misfortune and poverty. She as the goddess of in-auspiciousness and grief is the opposite of Lakshmi who is the goddess of auspiciousness and joy. As seen so far, the residents of Dwarka are stunned when Alakshmi wreaks havoc using black magic and Balarama with Sambh and his team were confused her as Radha.
Meanwhile, Radha offers to help the injured Dwarka citizens. However, they blame her for everything. Radha gets upset. Alakshmi sees her pain. Later, she summons her demon ally Jvarasura and orders him to make the citizens of Dwarka sick and make Radha to be blamed. When the citizen's health deteriorates, Radha goes to Mahadev and Gauri and asks for their help. Due to Radha's prayer, Devi Parvati (Gauri) transfers her power to Radha and Radha turns into Sheetala Devi sitting on a donkey who can calm down any illness. Sheetala Devi then slays Jwarasura. Krishna invites Alakshmi to Dwarka. When Alakshmi and Radha comes face to face, Radha gets shocked and asks who she is, as she looks exactly like Radha. Alakshmi said that her name is Jyeshtha, she lives in a far away village and came here to attend the worship of Goddess Sheetala.
Later, Alakshmi plans to spread greed in Dwarka and destroy Dhanalakshmi. On the other hand, Sambh joins hands with Alakshmi in her evil plan. Alakshmi’s evil intentions affect everyone and ignite greed in them. Alakshmi says with Jambavati’s greed, she will bring poverty in Dwarka which will destroy Radha’s avatar Dhanalakshmi.
After that, Krishna tells the story of Dhanalakshmi to all the citizens of Dwarka and Radha plays a game to make Jambavati understand the meaning of Dhana Lakshmi. Later, they make a devotional call to Lakshmi. Meanwhile, Alakshmi gets angry with Radha, and hence this time she thinks that she will do something nasty which will put Radha in new trouble.
Later, Alakshmi plans to destroy Radha's avatar Dhanyalakshmi. So, Alaxmi takes the form of Radha and serves juice to guru Sandipani and his sages. However, they hate it. Alakshmi puts an act and plays Radha’s role behind all this. Sandipani gets angry and tells Radha deserves his curse. But then Alakshmi acted as if she is trying to protect Radha and told Rishi Sandipani that she had prepared the pudding (Kheer) herself with the method told by Radha. Sandipani says she deserves her curse. To pacify the angry sages, Krishna recited the Blessed Lakshmi Katha.
Later, the sage seeks forgiveness from Dhanya Lakshmi on Radha's request. He blesses Radha as she wins over his heart after serving her delicious food. when Krishna starts narrating a story on Vidyalakshmi, Alakshmi creates hurdles. Alakshmi darkens Krishna's flute (Bansuri) with her evil vision. Dwarka citizens are stunned because Krishna does not remember how to play the flute. Later, Radha decides to praise Vidyalakshmi so that Krishna is freed from Vidyalakshmi's wrath. She begins her mediation. Alakshmi erases Radha's memory. Radha forgets Krishna which shocks him. But she soon regains her memory with the help of Devi Saraswati and Krishna. Alakshmi turns full moon night into darkness. Soon, Dwarka citizens start falling ill. Radha gets worried for all and tells Krishna that she cannot see Dwarka people in pain and hence she makes a big decision to get Krishna married to Alakshmi.
