Kundali is an Indian television soap opera that initially aired on Metro Gold in 2000.[1] After the channel closed, the series was taken over by STAR Plus, and aired from the beginning.[2] The series is produced by Balaji Telefilms.[3]

Plot

The story centers on two sisters, Aarti and Vidhi, whose lives are governed by their parents' decision to marry them only to men having horoscopes that perfectly match theirs. Aarti (Nivedita Bhattacharya) is the mature and responsible elder sister while Vidhi (Prachi Shah) is the impulsive, slightly childish but loving younger one. As luck would have it, the sisters find suitable matches in Viraj (Anupam Bhattacharya) and Abhishek (Yash Tonk), two brothers who are devoted to each other. But there is a twist: because of their parents' insistence on matching horoscopes, Aarti, the elder sister, is married to Abhishek, the younger brother; while the younger sister Vidhi marries the elder brother Viraj. This leads to a few awkward situations, but the couples are basically quite happy. However, a series of trying circumstances overcomes the lives of the four, threatening to tear their most valuable relationships apart. How they overcome these challenges, and how their mutual love prevails in the end, forms the story of Kundali.

gollark: Yes.

gollark: Well, yes, but now.

gollark: I think if you just want the general lessons about morality and such, you can read books on philosophy and get a more balanced perspective which is not trying to push some particular set of views and is going to explain directly and not use parables.

gollark: My family used to be vaguely Jewish, so I think some of the Torah long ago in my youth, not that I remember much (any).

gollark: It's quite long.
