A high-flying, cynical, and hot-headed Punjabi CEO. Raman is the antithesis of the "perfect hero." He is a divorcee, bitter about his past, and emotionally distant from his family, specifically his young daughter, Ruhi. The Catalyst: Little Ruhi
When the first episode of Yeh Hai Mohabbatein (YHM) aired on December 3, 2013, on Star Plus, it didn’t just launch another soap opera; it introduced a mature, nuanced take on love, societal expectations, and the modern Indian family. Produced by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms and based on Manju Kapur’s novel Custody , the series broke the mold of the typical "saas-bahu" drama from day one.
Ishita’s first encounter with Ruhi is pure magic. It establishes the "Mohabbatein" (love) of the title, which isn't initially between a man and a woman, but between a woman and a child who isn't hers. This mother-child bond became the bedrock of the show’s decade-long success.

The soul of the first episode—and the entire series—is Ruhi. The premiere highlights the lack of emotional connection between Raman and his daughter. While Raman provides for her financially, he is haunted by the betrayal of his ex-wife, Shagun, and projects that bitterness onto Ruhi.
The first episode wastes no time setting the stage for its "opposites attract" theme. We are introduced to the two protagonists living in the same Delhi neighborhood:
