[3][4] ‘Mishri’ revolves around the tumultuous tale of three individual people—Mishri Sharma, Raghav Dwivedi and Vaani Tripathi—as a divine thread of fate interconnects their lives together in a way that is weaved by God itself, ensuing their own beliefs and wishes to entangle in a golden mesh of an unwanted wedlock, betrayal, companionship and devotion.
The story is set in the sublime city of Mathura and begins in the village of Gangapur, with Mishri Sharma (Shruti Bhist), a young sparkle of hope and goodwill who is destined to be the harbinger of luck and good fortune for everyone around her.
She lives with her grandmother in Bela’s house, an overbearing and abusive lady coveting the lands and property left in Mishri’s name by her father.
Crying to her fate, Mishri regresses to believe that her ambition is futile and no matter how hard she tries, she is never able to fulfil her father’s last wishes nor level up to Bela’s expectations for her.
Succeeding in directing major roles in the family business also comes to a great cost to him as Chitra, his paternal aunt, secretly has a seed of greed and indignation sown deep in her heart for her supposedly beloved nephew.
Being an equal partners with Raghav in their tours and travels business, she hides an agenda of desiring something bigger behind the mask of her sweetness for which she won’t stop at anything — even if it means to claim her nephew’s life.
She still remains grieved about losing her younger sister, Meenu, to a terminal illness but with Raghav by her side, her sanity and trauma is tamed alongside their possessive but healthy relationship.
As Parvati presents Raghav’s horoscope and picture to a priest, she learns that he’s plagued with the same affliction in his fate as his father, Anirudh who died in an perplexing accident.
Just like his father, Raghav is destined to die a mysterious and inexplicible death as people who are closest to him are baying for his blood but the only way to prevent it is a human shield who is bound to protect him from every harm written in his destiny.
But as Mishri, in her sane mind, won’t agree to the proposal, they would’ve to craft a fool-proof plan to trick her and when a young city tycoon Raghav Dwivedi’s photo is misplaced between the meeting with the priest, Bela views it as a shot to slip the ball into her court.
On her way to Mathura to meet the guy in the photo in her hand, Mishri encounters Raghav on a busy street where he helps a beaten, poor boy accused to stealing items to feed his sick sister’s stomach and gives him some bills and a pen which denotes the importance of education for everyone as it’s the right every person should have.
As Mishri realises that she’d been cheated, she exempts Raghav from every responsibility and guilt and requests him to go on his way but to save him from Chitra’s goons, she has to fake a decision about convincing him for marriage now that the damage is already done and then enables his flight.
As the wedding shenanigans ring like the harbinger of sacrificial grief for Mishri, fate binds her as a protective shield for Raghav’s life and she must stay close to him against his wishes to guard him.
As the predestination signify their every move, will Mishri, Raghav and Vaani succumb to their fated dilemmas or would they tear apart their own choices and emotions to correct the wrongs in their lives?
