🎥 ONLINE STORY (Synopsis for OTT / Audience)

“Shukla Parivaar” ek dark thriller hai jo ek chhoti gali ke andar chhupi hui ek aisi family ki kahani hai, jo apni zindagi ka guzaara chori, dhokha aur blackmail karke karti hai.

Pankaj Shukla (40) aur uski biwi Laxmi Shukla (35) mohalla walon ki kamzori ka fayda uthakar unhe badnaam karne ki dhamki dete hain aur paise nikalte hain. Unke do bacche, Janvi (12) aur Shaswat (10), pickpocketing seekh chuke hain — aur family business ka hissa ban gaye hain.

Jab ek naya kirayedar, Gautam (30), mohalla me aata hai aur secretly ek journalist nikalta hai, toh Shukla parivaar ke khel khatam karne ki ladai shuru hoti hai. Lekin Pankaj aur Laxmi itne aasaan shikaar nahi hain — woh palat kar Gautam ko hi badnaam kar dete hain.

Sab kuch ulta ho jaata hai, par tabhi Janvi apne maa-baap ke khilaf khadi ho jaati hai. Woh Gautam ke sath milkar saboot jama karti hai aur mohalla ke saamne apne hi maa-baap ka sach kholti hai. Climax me police raid hoti hai, Pankaj aur Laxmi girftar hote hain, par ek dark twist bacha rehta hai — Janvi aur Shaswat ke andar crime ki aadat ab bhi zinda hai.
