Divya Drishti’s plot summary

The story begins with Vidya, who is pregnant, meeting with her Guruji. Their discussion revolves around evil Pishaachini, a former disciple of Guruji, seeking to acquire three powerful gems of Lord Shiva, which he possesses.
If Pishaachini bags all three gems, she will become powerful and unstoppable. Initially, Guruji gave two of his disciples the gems: the Mayavi Ratna, with the power of illusions and mind control, and the Tatva Ratna, with the ability to control the elements.
However, Pishaachini kills them and acquires the gems she wears on a pendant. She is now pursuing the third and most powerful gem under Guruji’s possession, the Kaal Vijay Ratna, which can give visions of the future and the power to change the future.
During Vidya and Guruji’s meeting, Pishaachini demands the third gem. Nonetheless, Guruji pushes Pishaachini to the side using his magical powers and throws the gem at Vidya. The villain recovers and stands before the incoming gem to fetch it.
The Kaal Vijay Ratna then enters her eye, releasing glowing red light and eventually enters Vidya’s womb. Guruji tells Vidya that her children will possess the gem’s powers and she should run to save her life.
Later, Vidya gives birth to two daughters, Divya and Drishti, but is worried because Pishaachini is hunting them down to acquire their powers. Although she and her husband, Sarthak, manage to save their daughters, they end up sacrificing themselves. Drishti and Divya ultimately get separated and adopted by different families.

Divya Drishti’s full story
After two decades, Drishti and Divya are all grown up. While the former is mature and caring, the latter is carefree and free-spirited. Despite their constant effort to find each other during full moon nights, the sisters cannot reunite.
After Chiranjivi notices both of them, he tries to keep them apart to protect them against Pishaachini. He organizes a job for Drishti in Bali as Rakshith Shergill's assistant. Unknown to Pishaachini, Divya also travels to Bali.
Through a series of events, Divya and Drishti find out they are related, and they decide to avenge their parents' death. The sisters eventually manage to kill Pishaachini, but her soul enters Divya’s body, turning her into Divyaachini.
Luckily, Drishti separates the villain from her sister with the help of a mysterious man named Anjaan. He tells her that the only way to kill Pishaachini is to trap her soul in Divya’s body.
She stabs her sister, but their lives are connected, so if one dies, the other one does, too. Anjaan assists the villain into her former body and gives her a fake gem. Divya-Drishti regains their powers and offers the true gem to Lord Shiva to protect it.
A few days later, the sisters find Pishaachini's human ashes after Chiranjivi reveals to them that destroying them is the only way to kill her. Unfortunately, Pishaachini stops their plan and manages to take away the gem.
With the three gems, she tries to merge their power to no avail. After asking for help from Kaal Devta, Pishaachini manages to activate the Kaal Vijay Ratna, but the two sisters blow up the building they are in with a bomb.
The explosion kills Drishti-Divya while the villain drops the gems, fleeing. However, the siblings reincarnate 13 days later and gain the powers from the three gems. Now, the mysterious Laal Chakor, an old disciple of Guruji, surfaces.
To find out his secret, Divya-Drishti decides to go into the cave, where, many years ago, the Kaal Vijay Tatna was given to their mother. They find the cave locked, and the only way to open it is with their and their spouses' hands on four handprints.
It is revealed that Mahima, Guruji’s most outstanding pupil, who was jealous of Vidya, allied with Pishaachini to kill her and acquire the gems. Drishti gives birth to twins, and Lord Shiva kills Pishaachini once and for all. The sisters lose their powers, but Drishti’s twins are later shown to possess them. Drishti’s children then acquire the three lost gems.
