== Cast == ==Plot==
Set in ], Ichcha is the daughter of a poor widow Damini, who begins working at Jogi Thakur Mansion as a maid. Jogi's daughter Tapasya befriends Ichcha, and they share a sister-like bond. Sumitra influences Tapasya to see Ichcha differently. Tapasya gets jealous when Divya and Jogi care for Ichcha as their child, unaware that Jogi was responsible for Ichcha's father Rajendra's death.


Tapasya is a rich spoilt brat. Simple, Ichcha wants to open a school to give free education to poor kids. Tapasya's parents arrange their daughter's marriage with Veer Singh, who belongs to a reputed and wealthy family. But Tapasya never shows interest towards the marriage as she is in relationship with Siddharth (Sid). Slowly Veer and Iccha fall in love and their families agree to their marriage. Insecure seeing Veer shower Ichcha with expensive gifts, Tapasya fakes a suicide attempt and begs Ichcha to let her marry Veer. Ichcha agrees, and Veer marries Tapasya. That same night, Veer learns the truth, and Tapasya claims Ichcha forced her to marry him, believing she is not right for him. The next day, Veer lashes out Tapasya in front of her family and forces Ichcha to tell the truth. Meanwhile, his elder brother Vansh, a drug addict falls for Ichha looking at her caring nature.

Veer, unaware of Vansh's love, tries to divorce Tapasya and marry Ichha, who tries to distance herself from him. Tapasya tries to get Iccha killed with the help of Sid. Veer saves Iccha, but not before she gets shot and is hospitalized; Sid is then arrested. Tapasya tricks Gunvanti who gets Vansh and Ichha married. A heartbroken Veer pretends to be happy with Tapasya. Vansh overhears Sid slamming Tapasya for ruining Iccha's life. Tapasya, however, misleads Vansh, indirectly blaming him for Ichha's sufferings. As a result, he kills himself. Iccha holds Veer responsible for Vansh's death, and Gunvanti, in turn, blames Ichha. Veer explains how Tapasya tried to kill Ichha and made Vansh commit suicide, by displaying a video revealing the day's actions shot by Sid, who wanted to take revenge from Tapasya. Shocked, Jogi disowns her. Ichha goes to Vrindavan. There, Veer arrives to unite with her, and they get married; the family accepts them.
Story- Mitalee


Tapasya meets Raghuvendra Pratap Rathore, who falls for her, but she betrays him in game of poker. He leaves her due to her disloyalty. Pregnant with his baby, she returns to Veer's family and delivers Mukta, whom she unintentionally abandons. Veer and Ichha raise her, unaware she is Tapasya's daughter. They also adopt an orphan and name him Kanha. Ichha delivers a boy but Sumitra and her son Pushkar steal him.
Screenplay- Shashi-Sumeet


They bribe the nurse to tell Ichcha that the boy was stillborn. Raghuvendra bumps into and takes the baby from Pushkar. He and Tapasya adopt the baby, named Yuvraj. Sid creates misunderstandings between Rathore and Tapasya, causing Tapasya to leave Rathore. Rocky Shah, Vansh's lookalike, enters the Bundela mansion as Vansh and falls for Iccha. Jogi rescues Iccha from him, accidentally kills Rocky and is bailed out by Rathore. Veer reveals Gunvanti to be behind all this, and Gunvanti admits to holding a grudge against Iccha for adopting the two children and not giving birth to her own son, whom she wants as an heir to the family. They later find out that Yuvraj is Iccha's real son and give Mukta to Jogi in exchange for Yuvraj. Pregnant again, Ichcha saves Veer from the cruel Avinash, who attacks him. Veer loses his memory. Ichha kills Avinash and is jailed for 18 years. Ichha delivers a girl in prison, and tells Damini to raise the baby, named Meethi.
Dialogues and Lyrics- Anil Deshmukh


Meethi and Mukta are best friends just like their mothers. Ichcha returns. Kanha, whom Damini raised is a successful ], happily married to Surbhi. Yuvraj and Meethi were brought up by Gunvanti and Damini respectively, and Gunvanti instigated him against Ichcha. Sumitra tells Meethi that Ichcha is alive but lies that she ruined Tapasya's life. Initially in denial, Meethi develops a negative opinion of Ichcha when she learns she was in prison for murder. Kanha reveals Ichcha was imprisoned for murder but omits that she killed Avinash to save Veer. Despite Damini and Kanha's efforts, Meethi disbelieves them and rejects Ichcha. Sumitra brainwashes Mukta, who grows close to Yuvraj.

Later, he tries to rape Mukta, but Ichcha saves her. Mukta realizes she misunderstood her and Meethi. Yuvraj is arrested and finds out Ichcha is his mother. His hatred for her further intensifies as she testifies against him in court, and he is incarcerated for 5 years. Veer who has still no memories, lives with Gunvanti and Amla. Reformed after living in US for years, Tapasya comes back and restores his memory. Vishnu encourages Meethi, who finally accepts Ichcha.
== Plot ==


Eventually, Veer and Ichcha unite. Meethi marries Vishnu on Ichcha's arrangement. He is actually Avinash's son, Akash, who wants revenge. Mukta discovers his truth and tries to locate the real Vishnu, a humble ] for an ], to expose Akash. He orders his goons to kidnap and kill Mukta. Fortunately, Raghuvendra saves her. At Akash and Meethi's wedding, Mukta tries to expose him but no one except Sumitra believes her.
Uttaran is all about a kid named Ichchha (meaning wish) who is the daughter of a maidservant in the city of Mumbai . Damini, her mother, quits her job in a household and rushes to the house of Jogi Thakur for the job of governing their only daughter, Tapasya. Divya, the Thakur's wife, agrees to Damini governing Tapasya under the condition that no relative of hers enters the "''haveli''" (meaning palace, or mansion). Things take a turn when Ichchha befriends Tapasya and sleeps in her room and is discovered by Divya in her room. Damini almost loses her job but Tapasya's friendship with Ichchha saves them. It seems that Tapasya has always craved for a friend.


Meanwhile, Ichcha and Tapasya risk their life to save Mukta from Veer's uncle Tej, who shoots Tapasya. Fatally, Ichcha gets hit by a truck. Before dying, Ichcha donates heart to Tapasya. Later, Raghuvendra gets the evidence to expose Akash. Surbhi turns out as Akash's maternal cousin sister. His mom, Ekadashi orders him to kill Meethi but he falls in love with her. Meethi leaves the house. Tapasya throws the pregnant Surbhi out.
The story goes on a normal track until Damini discovers that Rajendra, her husband, was accidentally killed by Jogi Thakur. Pushkar, Divya's notorious brother, feeds her cock-and-bull stories about how Jogi reacted to his death. Then, she enters the ''haveli'' and quits her job and as she leaves, Divya falls down the stairs and falls unconscious. Damini rushes her to the hospital, only to learn that Divya should be immediately operated upon. When the operation is done, the doctor says that Divya's legs will have no movement. In Divya's absence, Damini takes care of Tapasya like her mother.


Surbhi repents for her actions and dies after delivering their child. Kanha forgives her and promises to raise their child. As Vishnu and Mukta love each other, they marry and soon have a son, Manav. Meethi and Akash unite. She is accepted by his family. After undergoing a plastic surgery, Yuvraj returns as Mukta's boss for revenge. He kidnaps her. While saving her, a pregnant Meethi miscarries and disowns Yuvraj before Ekadashi banishes her. She travels to ].
The Thakur and Thakurayan allot Damini a room in their mansion and take her permission to make Ichchha study in the same school as Tapasya. (The story as of on 23rd April 2009)


Caught up in a terrorist attack by Asgar, Meethi slips into a river and is transported by the current across the border to ]. Ashfaq saves her. He falls in love with and helps her in returning to India. He bids her a tearful goodbye. Akash and Meethi unite. She adopts Rani as Nandini is imprisoned because she saved Akash from and murdered his old enemy. Meethi and Akash also adopt Tamanna, whom Rani hates. Sumitra reforms.
----


Eventually, Sumitra and Damini convince Mukta and Meethi to unite, and in the end, reflect the everlasting friendship of Ichcha and Tapasya.

Uttaran (transl.Donated items) is an Indian soap opera that aired on Colors TV from 1 August 2008 to 16 January 2015. The third longest-running Indian television series of Colors TV, it starred Tina Datta, Rashami Desai, Nandish Sandhu, Rohit Khurana, Sreejita De and Mrunal Jain.

Plot

Set in Mumbai, Ichcha is the daughter of a poor widow Damini, who begins working at Jogi Thakur Mansion as a maid. Jogi's daughter Tapasya befriends Ichcha, and they share a sister-like bond. Sumitra influences Tapasya to see Ichcha differently. Tapasya gets jealous when Divya and Jogi care for Ichcha as their child, unaware that Jogi was responsible for Ichcha's father Rajendra's death.

Tapasya is a rich spoilt brat. Simple, Ichcha wants to open a school to give free education to poor kids. Tapasya's parents arrange their daughter's marriage with Veer Singh, who belongs to a reputed and wealthy family. But Tapasya never shows interest towards the marriage as she is in relationship with Siddharth (Sid). Slowly Veer and Iccha fall in love and their families agree to their marriage. Insecure seeing Veer shower Ichcha with expensive gifts, Tapasya fakes a suicide attempt and begs Ichcha to let her marry Veer. Ichcha agrees, and Veer marries Tapasya. That same night, Veer learns the truth, and Tapasya claims Ichcha forced her to marry him, believing she is not right for him. The next day, Veer lashes out Tapasya in front of her family and forces Ichcha to tell the truth. Meanwhile, his elder brother Vansh, a drug addict falls for Ichha looking at her caring nature.

Veer, unaware of Vansh's love, tries to divorce Tapasya and marry Ichha, who tries to distance herself from him. Tapasya tries to get Iccha killed with the help of Sid. Veer saves Iccha, but not before she gets shot and is hospitalized; Sid is then arrested. Tapasya tricks Gunvanti who gets Vansh and Ichha married. A heartbroken Veer pretends to be happy with Tapasya. Vansh overhears Sid slamming Tapasya for ruining Iccha's life. Tapasya, however, misleads Vansh, indirectly blaming him for Ichha's sufferings. As a result, he kills himself. Iccha holds Veer responsible for Vansh's death, and Gunvanti, in turn, blames Ichha. Veer explains how Tapasya tried to kill Ichha and made Vansh commit suicide, by displaying a video revealing the day's actions shot by Sid, who wanted to take revenge from Tapasya. Shocked, Jogi disowns her. Ichha goes to Vrindavan. There, Veer arrives to unite with her, and they get married; the family accepts them.

Tapasya meets Raghuvendra Pratap Rathore, who falls for her, but she betrays him in game of poker. He leaves her due to her disloyalty. Pregnant with his baby, she returns to Veer's family and delivers Mukta, whom she unintentionally abandons. Veer and Ichha raise her, unaware she is Tapasya's daughter. They also adopt an orphan and name him Kanha. Ichha delivers a boy but Sumitra and her son Pushkar steal him.

They bribe the nurse to tell Ichcha that the boy was stillborn. Raghuvendra bumps into and takes the baby from Pushkar. He and Tapasya adopt the baby, named Yuvraj. Sid creates misunderstandings between Rathore and Tapasya, causing Tapasya to leave Rathore. Rocky Shah, Vansh's lookalike, enters the Bundela mansion as Vansh and falls for Iccha. Jogi rescues Iccha from him, accidentally kills Rocky and is bailed out by Rathore. Veer reveals Gunvanti to be behind all this, and Gunvanti admits to holding a grudge against Iccha for adopting the two children and not giving birth to her own son, whom she wants as an heir to the family. They later find out that Yuvraj is Iccha's real son and give Mukta to Jogi in exchange for Yuvraj. Pregnant again, Ichcha saves Veer from the cruel Avinash, who attacks him. Veer loses his memory. Ichha kills Avinash and is jailed for 18 years. Ichha delivers a girl in prison, and tells Damini to raise the baby, named Meethi.

Meethi and Mukta are best friends just like their mothers. Ichcha returns. Kanha, whom Damini raised is a successful CEO, happily married to Surbhi. Yuvraj and Meethi were brought up by Gunvanti and Damini respectively, and Gunvanti instigated him against Ichcha. Sumitra tells Meethi that Ichcha is alive but lies that she ruined Tapasya's life. Initially in denial, Meethi develops a negative opinion of Ichcha when she learns she was in prison for murder. Kanha reveals Ichcha was imprisoned for murder but omits that she killed Avinash to save Veer. Despite Damini and Kanha's efforts, Meethi disbelieves them and rejects Ichcha. Sumitra brainwashes Mukta, who grows close to Yuvraj.

Later, he tries to rape Mukta, but Ichcha saves her. Mukta realizes she misunderstood her and Meethi. Yuvraj is arrested and finds out Ichcha is his mother. His hatred for her further intensifies as she testifies against him in court, and he is incarcerated for 5 years. Veer who has still no memories, lives with Gunvanti and Amla. Reformed after living in US for years, Tapasya comes back and restores his memory. Vishnu encourages Meethi, who finally accepts Ichcha.

Eventually, Veer and Ichcha unite. Meethi marries Vishnu on Ichcha's arrangement. He is actually Avinash's son, Akash, who wants revenge. Mukta discovers his truth and tries to locate the real Vishnu, a humble blue-collar worker for an NGO, to expose Akash. He orders his goons to kidnap and kill Mukta. Fortunately, Raghuvendra saves her. At Akash and Meethi's wedding, Mukta tries to expose him but no one except Sumitra believes her.

Meanwhile, Ichcha and Tapasya risk their life to save Mukta from Veer's uncle Tej, who shoots Tapasya. Fatally, Ichcha gets hit by a truck. Before dying, Ichcha donates heart to Tapasya. Later, Raghuvendra gets the evidence to expose Akash. Surbhi turns out as Akash's maternal cousin sister. His mom, Ekadashi orders him to kill Meethi but he falls in love with her. Meethi leaves the house. Tapasya throws the pregnant Surbhi out.

Surbhi repents for her actions and dies after delivering their child. Kanha forgives her and promises to raise their child. As Vishnu and Mukta love each other, they marry and soon have a son, Manav. Meethi and Akash unite. She is accepted by his family. After undergoing a plastic surgery, Yuvraj returns as Mukta's boss for revenge. He kidnaps her. While saving her, a pregnant Meethi miscarries and disowns Yuvraj before Ekadashi banishes her. She travels to Srinagar.

Caught up in a terrorist attack by Asgar, Meethi slips into a river and is transported by the current across the border to Gilgit. Ashfaq saves her. He falls in love with and helps her in returning to India. He bids her a tearful goodbye. Akash and Meethi unite. She adopts Rani as Nandini is imprisoned because she saved Akash from and murdered his old enemy. Meethi and Akash also adopt Tamanna, whom Rani hates. Sumitra reforms.

Eventually, Sumitra and Damini convince Mukta and Meethi to unite, and in the end, reflect the everlasting friendship of Ichcha and Tapasya.

The show initially starred Sparsh Khanchandani as young Ichcha with Ishita Panchal as young Tapasya in December 2008 to June 2009.

It later took a generation leap and from June 2009 to March 2012, it focused on the characters of Ichcha, Tapasya, Veer and Vansh played by Tina Datta, Rashami Desai, Nandish Sandhu and Rohit Khurana respectively. Sandhu quit the show as he doesn't want to be the part of 18 years leap and was replaced by Vikas Bhalla in 2012.

Another 18-year leap was introduced in March 2012 and then the story centered around the life of Meethi, Mukta, Yuvraj, Akash and Vishnu portrayed by Tina Datta, Sreejita De, Saurabh Raj Jain, Mrunal Jain and Ajay Chaudhary until its end in January 2015.

Reception
