Learn Laravel and codeIgniter. I've heard they are two of the best frameworks for php..sadly,I'm not being able to start any of them yet as I recently started js..but,you go ahead..will help you a lot.

I think you should start with CodeIgniter. By doing so you will have an idea of how to use PHP framework and MVC pattern. Write small projects using CodeIgniter once hou get familiar with it you can easily learn Laravel. If you start with laravel you need cloud hosting to deploy your web-app and It can be so tricky. but if you make project using CodeIgniter then you can host your project at any hosting that have php and mysql support. and believe me once you learn CodeIgniter, Laravel will be very easy. And the last cool thing is CodeIgniter has cool documentation which helps you to learn it fast

Learn PHP without frameworks then choose a framework. * I think Laravel is the best.

Yii Framework is good one to start with. It is faster and secure.
