Bijoy, the king of Achinpur's wife, Rupmati gives birth to a child named Kiranmala. Katkati, Bijoy's other wife and Katkati's mother, Pyakati didn't like Kiranmala at all, fearing she might put an end to their reign. 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. And 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 suicides to save the world from Katkati.

Reception[edit]

The serial was promoted by many film personalities from Tollywood like Koel Mallick and Raj Chakraborty in the last episode of the latter serial on August 3, 2014.[6][7] The series had also become popular in neighboring Bangladesh, where several people have clashed over it at a village in the Habiganj District, injuring 100 people.[8]

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]

Television special[edit]

A telefilm named Kiranmala has been premiered on STAR Jalsha on 15 March 2015 featuring June Malia as the queen of time.[10]
