Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara is an Indian Hindi-language romantic drama television series produced by Rajshri Productions. It aired from 18 June 2012 to 1 November 2014 on Star Plus. The movie starred Disha Parmar and Nakuul Mehta as Pankhuri Gupta Kumar and Aditya Kumar.

Plot

Pankhuri Gupta is a simple girl from Kullu. Aditya Kumar, a rich boy in Mumbai, does not like relationships, having seen his parents Avantika and Harish separated for twenty years.

Purushottam Deewan (Aditya's maternal grandfather), a wealthy businessman, visits the Guptas in Kullu, determined to have Aditya marry Pankhuri.

Instead, Avantika fixes Aditya's engagement with Latika Bafna, who only wants the Deewans' money. Latika frames Aditya for taking advantage of her, but Pankhuri proves his innocence and rebukes Latika for conspiring against Aditya. After the incident, Aditya and Pankhuri become best friends. Pankhuri's parents fix Pankhuri's marriage to Shivam Mehta. Latika tries to ruin the wedding, prompting Shivam to leave. Aditya steps in and marries Pankhuri, and Avantika eventually wholeheartedly accepts her as her daughter-in-law after seeing her unconditional efforts to reunite her with Harish. Rubel, Avantika’s brother Anuj's son returns to India. He is a spoiled brat who hates Aditya and wants the family business and property, and marries Latika to do so. Avantika’s sister Sheela and Latika plan and brainwash Anuj for property and make him acquire the power of attorney. They together plot against Aditya and Pankhuri and make them oust the Deewan house. They later fire Shanky, the family’s caretaker. Kaira, Anuj's daughter, hates Purushottam thinking he killed his wife Kaushalya. However, it is revealed that at a young age, Aditya was accidentally responsible for the death of Kaushalya who was in a state of coma. After learning the truth, Kaira apologises to Purushottam. The Deewans are reunited after many ups and downs. Anuj starts showing love and cares for his father Purushottam and Avantika and her sister Preeti by handing the reins of the business to Avantika and Aditya, that he had usurped. Preeti marries Sameer Deshpande.

Purushottam passes away peacefully after uniting his family with Pankhuri's painstaking efforts. Purushottam's younger brother Manik and his family invite themselves to live in Deewan Mansion after the former's death.

A pregnant Latika joins Manik and his wife Manorama in their ulterior plans and undergoes an abortion but feigns a miscarriage blaming Pankhuri. Aditya is jailed and framed for possessing fake notes and illegal drugs, and is compelled by the wicked Manorama to divorce Pankhuri. Manik and Manorama soon reform after Manorama is paralyzed in an accident. Rubal divorces Latika, and falls in love with, and marries Payal. Pankhuri and Aditya remarry; Kapil (Manik's son) is arrested, and Kaira marries Varun.

The family reunites with Aneesha (the late Kaushalya's younger sister) who returns from Australia after decades. Vikram (Varun's elder brother) wants to use Kaira for revenge on Deewans as a decision by Avantika affects him negatively. The family eventually settles the problem. Aditya and Pankhuri argue. While she goes off to Kullu, they patch over the phone just before disappearing in a landslide.

3 years later

Harish meets Pankhuri's lookalike, Ayesha on a trip in Lucknow and uses her to bring Aditya out of the belief that Pankhuri is still alive, failing, as Aditya realizes Ayesha isn't Pankhuri. Ayesha falls in love with him but keeps her feelings to herself, aware that Aditya only loves Pankhuri. Ayesha's mother Nilofer forces Aditya to marry her after Ayesha's image is tarnished by a photographer Arif.

Aditya later marries her to save her image; Avantika soon accepts her. Pankhuri is revealed to be alive and is returned to the Deewan mansion in a coma. Upon waking, she reveals being abducted for jewelry. Ayesha later leaves to pursue her dream of becoming a designer, accompanied by Aneesha, who considers her as her daughter. Avantika's past affair is revealed when her illegitimate son Ayush comes to live with the Deewan family.

Eventually, Harish accepts Ayush as his stepson. The show ends on a happy note with Pankhuri turning pregnant and everyone in the family reuniting and rejoicing: thus, fulfilling the dream of being a united and happy family that the late Purushottam Deewan had always dreamt of.
