Plot

Yahan Main Ghar Ghar Kheli is the story of palatial mansion set in Ujjain called Swarn Bhawan (meaning: The house of gold) and the families that are involved with it. Swarn Bhawan has been passed down the Thakur family and in this time Thakur Uday Pratap Singh, his wife, Thakurain Chandra Prabha, their eldest son, Swarn Prakash, their eldest daughter Swarn Lata and their youngest daughter Swarn Abha reside in Swarn Bhawan.

Unfortunately, the Thakur family faces unforeseen circumstances and are forced to leave Swarn Bhawan by Jagmohan Prasad (Uday Pratap's father's driver's son). Many years ago, during a Puja in Swarn Bhawan, Jagmohan wanted to see the gold statues, but when he went closer to temple, Uday Pratap’s father disgraced Jagmohan and his family. The Thakur family goes to live with Chandra Prabha's brother Raghav Pandit, who was once Thakur's Diwan. Raghav is a nice and kind man while his wife Sheetal is very greedy and shrewd. She continually insults the Thakur family. Abha decides to work as Jagmohan's employee in Swarn Bhawan. She tells him her name is Tasveer so that Jagmohan cannot recognise her as the daughter of his arch enemy. Jagmohan's youngest son Karan Prasad falls in love with Abha. Abha also begins to fall in love with him. However, Abha's true identity is revealed. But, Karan marries Abha. Thakur and Jagmohan refuse to accept this marriage but after a series of events, they both begin to accept Abha and Karan, with the help of Saraswati Devi and Chandra Prabha.

However, Sanskar (betrothed to Abha earlier) is still madly in love with Abha and wants her, deciding to kill Karan; he fails many times. Abha soon finds out about Sanskar's obsession over her and is worried. Then because of a misunderstanding caused by Sanskar, Karan divorces Abha and accuses her of doing a deed that Sanskar did. He then finds out that it was Sanskar and pleads to Abha for forgiveness and remarries her. Sanskar then becomes good.

It is then revealed when Karan was young, his maternal uncle, Ranjit forced his mother Pratibha to get her husband to fight a false case. After her refusal, he attempted to kill Karan but killed his own son, Bunty, by accident. So he intended was to use his sister Yashodhra to ruin Jagmohan’s family, and manages to get rid of Saraswati Devi However, with Abha and Pratibha’s efforts, he is caught and punished but Yashodhra saves herself and her position as Jagmohan’s wife. Meanwhile, Pratibha, who has lost her memory and behaves like a child is continuously targeted by Yashodhara, her son, Dushyant and his wife. However, their efforts are thwarted by Abha, who manages to send Pratibha to a rehalibitation centre to be treated. Meanwhile, in order to possess Swarn Bhawan, Yashodhara attempts to kill Karan after revealing her truth and forcing him to sign transfer papers, and Karan is presumed dead. Abha meets his twin Sidharth, an actor and screenwriter whose actual name is Ranchod (something only he and his girlfriend knew originally). It is revealed that many years ago, Jagmohan won a case "777", which he later learned he was fighting for the wrong person. Because of his case, the innocent person whom he proved wrong lost his son. Then, Pratibha gave birth to Karan and his twin Ranchod, no one except Jagmohan and a nanny knew that. He handed Ranchod to the innocent Mr. Tiwari. Therefore, after Karan gets into a severe car accident due to Yashodhara, and is missing, Ranchod agrees to help Abha for 11 days, masquerading as Karan so the family is not worried, and Yashodhara’s plan to obtain Swarn Bhawan through Karan fails. After the 11 days are completed, Abha and Ranchod return to Mumbai. There, Abha goes to search for Karan one last time and Ranchod goes on his way. Ranchod happens to meet Karan in the hospital, and seeing his bad shape, thinking Karan was about to die, promises him that he will protect Abha and rest of family from Yashodhara.

The Prasad family expects Karan and Abha to bring Ranchod home, with the family planning a grand birthday party for both sons. Abha is about to tell the family the sad news about Karan, when Ranchod, seemingly agreeing to continue posing as Karan, enters. Abha finds out that she is pregnant with Karan's baby. During a puja held for Swarn Bhawan’s anniversary, Yashodhara and Dushyant attempt to kill the entire Prasad and Thakur family but fail, as their evil plan is exposed to the family, through Abha and Karan (Ranchod). Yashodhara tries to expose Ranchod but fails, and is arrested together with Dushyant and his wife. During a religious Holi celebration, Ranchod is exposed and then explains why he did not tell the family the truth and that he is only fulfilling Karan's last wish.

Later it is found out that Karan is alive and is saved by Dr. Arundhati, who decides to take him home and treat him. As Karan cannot speak and his body is motionless, she names him Neel. Shaili sees a picture of Karan in the newspaper and decides to keep him away from Abha and Ranchod.

After that, Karan is kidnapped by Dushyant, who is actually intending to kidnap Ranchod. However, they find out it os the wrong man and throw him out of the car. He is then found by Dr. Arundhati again, who still continues to treat him.

Ranchod finds out that it was Dushyant who caused Abha's miscarriage, and his rage, he severely injures Dushyant, who dies. Ranchod is framed for murdering him and is arrested. Abha knows that Ranchod is innocent and has to fight his case as, because Karan was presumed dead, he cannot fight it. On the day of the hearing, Shaili tells Karan everything about Abha's marriage with Ranchod. Karan is extremely upset and leaves in anger, thinking Abha is in love and has moved on with Ranchod. When he does return, he tells Abha that he will help her fight the case but afterwards (when the case is over), it will also be a decision of their relationship, which is hinted by him as almost over. Karan and Abha trap Shaili and reveal her truth before everyone on the final day of Ranchod's hearing. Vimal is very angry and throws her out.
