Synopsis[edit]
Shararat revolves around Jiya (Shruti Seth), who is the great great great great grand daughter of Rani Devi (Daisy Irani)/(Shammi). The show opens on the occasion of Jiya's 18th birthday. Hailing from a family of fairies, Jia unknowingly becomes the wielder of magical powers. As a result of good deeds by ancestors, her family's first girl child of each generation is blessed with magical powers on turning 18 and so is Jiya.Jiya lives with her family: her father Dr. Suraj Malhotra (Mahesh Thakur), her mother Radha (Poonam Narula, later Eva Grover), her brother Jai and her maternal grandmother Sushma (Farida Jalal). Apart from this, there are Jiya's college friends and acquaintances such as the stud basketball player Dhruv (Karanvir Bohra) on whom Jiya secretly has a crush. Dhruv returns her ardor, while Parminder (or Pam, as she yells at everybody to call her)(Simple Kaul) , the latest NRI entry in the college, threatens Jiya that she will grab all of Dhruv's attention; Meeta (Aditi Shirwaikar Malik) her starry-eyed and romantic best friend and Raja (Harsh Vashisht), Dhruv's best friend who is always irritated with Meeta running after him. Pam is also the niece of Shanti Saberwal (Shoma Anand) the classic neighbour of Malhotra's who is convinced that everything is not normal with the Malhotra household and who always goes there to borrow something or the other. She also wants to marry Suraj. She has a son named Bittu who sometimes teases Jiya's brother Jai.The Malhotra home with three fairies who use, or rather misuse, their magic nearly always ends up in some trouble. Suraj, who learnt on his wedding day that not only his wife, but also his mother-in-law is a fairy, has to deal with his mother-in-law who insists that her daughter and grand daughter practice magic for almost everything.Midway through the series, Bebo, a 10-year-old fairy, is sent to live with the Malhotra family as she is causing mischief everywhere in Paristan, the world of fairies. Normally, a fairy cannot use her magical powers until her 18th birthday, on which Rani Devi sprays a few drops of magical potion on the fairy, thereby releasing all her magical powers. However, Bebo accidentally falls in the entire pot of potion, and that's why she can do magic when other underage fairies cannot.
In season 3, Due to misunderstandings created by Jiya's duplicate between Jiya and Dhruv, Dhruv is not talking to Jiya. Nani opens Naughty Nani's cafe and also helps Jiya to get her job,a writer. On her job, she impresses her manager by her work and a coworker develops crush on her and starts sending cards to her. Shanti also opens a marriage bureau in Nani's cafe where a man wants to marry Jiya instead of Pam but Jiya is saved by Nani. To help Jiya, Nani gives Shanti and her husband's love to Jiya and Dhruv but this goes wrong and they end up having a fight. Meanwhile, when Jiya thinks that her feeling for Dhruv have changed and she isn't missing him, Neil Bajaj enters her life with the motive of acquiring the magical powers of three of them (Sushma, Radha and Jiya). She is smitten by his charm. Elsewhere, when Dhruv gets to know that Jiya is perfectly normal from their broken friendship, he decides to meet her at Nani's cafe where he gets introduced to Neil who challenges Dhruv to win an arm wrestling match against him, thus winning Jiya's heart. Neil informs his boss that their plan to separate Jiya and Dhruv is working as for the first time in life Jiya did not mind Dhruv losing any match. Jiya is confused with her feelings for Neil and Dhruv. Neil even tries to kill Dhruv and snatch Jia's powers but fails. This creates a doubt in the fairies' minds about Neil's intentions. However, Jiya still thinks he is innocent. Later, Sushma and Jiya enter a fairy tale book followed by Radha who plays a modern fairy God mother, Jiya has to play a character resembling Cindrella and Pam and Shanti are her step relatives. She is extremely excited to know that Dhruv is her prince. Meanwhile, Neil uses this opportunity and decides to snatch their magical powers and burn the book. Bebo and Suraj try to stop him but in vain. In the fairy tale, Sushma and Radha's powers become weak and Jia loses consciousness. Prince Dhruv helps them reach the place from where they entered the tale. All three of them make it just in time and are able to save themselves and catch Neil. Later, Jiya takes part in World Best Fairy Championship and wins it by giving defeat to Shani Devi and her granddaughter who try to disqualify her.

In season 4, the Malhotras move into a new house, which is haunted by four stupid but paranoid ghosts: Colonel Pritam Singh, who used to attend Sushma's college and has a crush on her since then; his son Amar Prem, whose life ambition has been to get 1000 customers to make life insurance with him; Amar's wife Pritika, who wants to become a vamp (an antagonistic actress in soap operas); and their son Nidar, who has developed a crush on Jiya. The ghost family had died whilst holidaying in the Malhotra house, and hate the family as they do not want humans to stay at the house, which they now call theirs. They play many pranks on the Malhotras, and the Malhotras in turn use their magic to annoy them, with both parties trying to force the other to leave the house forever. The Malhotra eventually succeed with the four ghosts attaining salvation and leaving the house. The story ends with Dhruv returning from Australia. He proposes to Jiya and she accepts it. Then, as per the fairy rules they need to get married in 6 hours otherwise they'll not be able to marry each other ever. Jia convinces Suraj for this marriage on the condition that they reveal their true identity of being fairies to Dhruv, who initially gets scared but agrees to marry Jiya. Also Sushma and Jiya promise Suraj that they will never use magic on Dhruv and they seem to keep their promise. But we see that Radha (who ideally never used her powers unless very urgent), uses her spell on Dhruv to make him sink halfway in the ground when he refuses to eat the heavy breakfast made by her thus following Sushma's footsteps of troubling her son-in-law.

Production
Production for Shararat began in September 2002, when Rajiv Mehta pitched an idea for a show revolving around fairies and magic. Originally, the show featured a girl who hid magic from her father and friends while trying to become the world's best fairy under her mother and grandmother's guidance. Jiya was originally named Pooja and the characters of Pam, Meeta, Raja and Shanti did not exist. When the series was finally picked in January 2003, Mehta combined several aspects of his stories and created what is now known as Shararat. The tentative title was Thoda Jaadu. It was changed to Jaadu aur Nazakat in January 2003 and again in March 2003 to Jaadu, Nazakat aur Shararat. It was finally changed to Shararat in May 2003. The cast was chosen through various auditions. Finally, the show entered production in October 2003. Writing for first season began in June 2003 and concluded in November 2003. Shooting for the first season officially began in the final week of February 2004 and concluded on New Year's Day 2005. When extra episodes were announced, the show was shooting the pilot. The writers concluded work in June 2004, while the show was shooting episode 30. It was originally to last for 28 episodes but was extended to 56 in the first week of February 2004. Shooting took a break in October 2004 for Diwali. Thanks to good reception, the show was renewed for a second season in May 2005. Writers got to work immediately, while the shooting crew followed on 1 August 2005. The second season consisted of 56 episodes. The second season's shooting was concluded in September 2006, after a breaks in October 2005 and 20 December to 20 January 2006. The show was renewed for a third and final season in January, 2007. Since there was a very small time left in airing the 3rd season and the cast was unavailable starting in March 2007 to August 2007, 7 episodes of the 2nd seasons as 3rd season episodes. Six episodes were shot starting in February 2007 till April 2007. The show was renewed for a fourth season thanks to the audience's intense requests. Shooting began in September 2007 and concluded in December 2007. Though shooting for 5th began in February 2008, it did not premier until June 2008. The shooting concluded in September 2008. The channel held a meeting in July 2008 to decide the show's future. Most of people wanted the show to conclude and in a month, the channel announced Season 5 as the final season.
