Star Plus from 15 January 2001 to 29 April 2004.[1][2] It is the story of fortune's twists and pitfalls that tear asunder the lives of two cousins tied together by a bond stronger than that of blood : the bond of love.[3]
Overview
Shagun is the story of two cousins, Aradhana and Aarti, brought up together and so close to each other that one hardly needs words to convey her thoughts to the other.
