Shararat (TV series)

Mischief – A little magic, a little fun) is an Indian fantasy sitcom which aired on StarPlus channel from 2003 to 2006.

The show is loosely based on the American teen sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

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, her mother Radha, her brother Jai and her maternal grandmother Sushma.

However, Bebo accidentally falls in the entire pot of potion, and that's why she can do magic when other underage fairies cannot.

On her job, she impresses her manager with her work and a coworker develops crush on her and starts sending cards to her.

In the fairy tale, Sushma and Radha's powers become weak and Jia loses consciousness.

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.

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.

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.

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 the son-in-law of the family.
