Udaan (transl. Flight) is an Indian soap opera that premiered on Colors TV on 18 August 2014, replacing Madhubala.[2] Produced by Mahesh Bhatt, it was originally planned as a film which eventually get shelved.[3] Udaan is the longest running television show of Colors TV[4] The story revolves around Chakor, a victim of bonded child labour who fights for her village's freedom and aspires to break-free.[5] It starred Spandan Chaturvedi as Young Chakor until it took a generation leap in February 2016.[1][6] From [7][8][9]

Plot

Kamal Narayan, a wealthy landlord in Azadganj village, uses the villagers as bonded labourers. Couple Bhuvan Lal Singh and Kasturi face financial difficulty; as collateral for a loan, they has to let Kamal use their unborn child as a servant. Then, Kasturi gives birth to a girl and names her as Chakor.

7 years later

Chakor, now a bonded labourer, is an aspiring marathon runner and has a younger sister, Imli. She befriends Kamal's nephew, Vivaan and campaigns for the villagers' rights. Unaware, she also has a twin sister, Chunni, who was secretly raised in Mumbai. Kamal kills her, motivating Chakor to seek revenge. She escapes with her marathon coach to pursue her dreams and vows to return to the village in 10 years. Vengeful for the betrayal, Kamal gets Chakor's grandmother buried alive.

10 years later

Chakor returns after becoming a famous marathon runner. Imli hates her for leaving them all behind. Chakor learns about her grandmother's death and gets Kamal arrested, though he is later bailed. Vivaan rebuilds his bond with Chakor; they fall in love.

Imli falls in love with Suraj, Kamal's son, whose marriage is arranged to Tina Raichand. A double ceremony is planned for them. Imli explains this to Tina who conspires to switch places in the ceremony. However, Suraj learns about this and shows his cruelty by switching them, marrying Imli to Vivaan while he marries Chakor. Love blossoms between Vivaan and Imli. Kamal forces him to be a bonded labourer in revenge. Eventually, Suraj and Chakor fall in love and get married.

Imli turns evil and gives Vivaan a sleeping pill which puts him into a coma. She also conspires with Kamal to have Chakor killed; she succeeds and Chakor is presumed dead. She however survives and realises that she's pregnant. She, later, reunites with Suraj and they return to Azadganj, forgiving Imli. Kamal kidnaps Chakor, and she miscarries. In return, she kills Kamal to avenge all deaths, and is jailed for 5 years. Meanwhile, Imli hits Suraj with an iron rod, causing him to lose his memory.

5 years later

Chakor is released and shocked to learn Imli's truth. She motivates villagers to fight back. Eventually, Suraj regains his memories and they reunite. Imli tries to injure her, but has an accident and is presumed dead.

2 years later

Chakor and Suraj have a baby daughter, Saanvi. Imli returns and gun dealer Yashwant tries to kill Suraj; when Vivaan gets in the way, Chakor accidentally shoots him to death. Imli swears revenge and kidnaps Saanvi. Suraj blames Chakor and severs ties with her. They both leave the village: Suraj moves to New York while Chakor moves to a different town. Imli, meanwhile, makes Saanvi a labourer.

7 years later

Chakor and Suraj both return to village for work and form a bond with Saanvi, who now known as Anjor, unaware of their relation. Imli finally tells them the truth and an apologetic Suraj reconciles with Chakor and Saanvi. Suraj is killed in a bomb-blast, a result of a political fallout. Chakor, rather than telling Saanvi, pays Suraj's look-alike Raghav Khanna to take his place. Imli turns good and dies while saving Chakor from a villain. Chakor gets jailed for 10 years under false charges and Saanvi is adopted by a rich couple.

10 years later

Chakor traces her daughter and tries to get close to her. The rich couple tries to separate them and kills Raghav, causing Saanvi to leave them. She marries a boy, Sameer and they move to Sitapur. He is, however, brutally killed by Ranvijay, who had helped Imli in earlier. Chakor and Saanvi unite to get revenge and Ranvijay is burnt alive. Finally, Chakor comes back to Azadganj as Saanvi decides to stay in Sitapur.
