Plot

[edit]

King Bijoy is the king of Achinpur. After winning a battle, his mother/Rajmata takes him to a secret room of the palace and shows him that the imprisonment of the demons will come to an end which was given to them by his father. She also tells him that of the ancestors' prophecy that a princess named Kiranmala will be born in their royal family who will save the world from the demons. But demons Queen Paykati and her daughter Katkati learned of the prophecy and plot a plan. According to their plan, Paykati goes to the royal place as a nurse for Queen Rupmoti and at the time of Rupmoti's labour time, she switches baby Kiranmala with frogs and rats. After this she throws Kiranmala in the sea, but fortunately she is saved by a fisherman and his wife and they care for Kiranmala as their daughter along with their sons. Paykati accuses Rupmoti of being a witch and everyone, including Rajmata and the king, believe her and throw Rupmoti out of the palace. 18 years later, they start forming an entire team of demons including Pishachini, Bajramala, Donkar and Bitkel. Kiranmala falls in love with Donkar's stepbrother Kumar Prithviraj, making Donkar jealous of Prithviraj. Bajramala becomes jealous of Kiranmala because Bajramala loves Prithviraj. However, Kiranmala and Prithviraj end up married. They give birth to Alokmala, who changes the jealousy in Bajramala and Donkar's heart into love. Katkati becomes angry and tries to destroy Achinpur and Amrita Nagari. Kiranmala dies by suicide to save the world from Katkati.

At the Kolkata Book Fair, seven children from Kolkata met Rukma Roy (who plays Kiranmala) at the stall of Star Jalsha. The actress said:

"Happy that the work of famed fantasy writer Dakshinaranjan Mitra Majumder will be introduced to the largely uninitiated audience of Gen Next as well as others. Replete with palace, forts and 'raj-durbar' Kiranmala by Star Jalsha will bring a change in the usual look of Bengali serials after many years."[9]
