Jhanak 1st August 2025 Written Update Starlife –
The episode opens with Prachi scoffing at the idea of Priyanshi dancing, saying she’s just a girl and questioning what she could possibly achieve through it. She wonders aloud why Priyanshi even needs the chance to spread her wings. Jhanak calmly but firmly responds, saying everyone has wings, but only a few dare to use them—most people just keep theirs hidden. She defends Priyanshi, insisting that she’s doing nothing wrong. Mahek asks Prachi if she’ll join them, but Prachi hesitates, unsure of what to tell Ketki. Jhanak suggests a cover story: they’ll say they’re taking Priyanshi shopping for new clothes so the guy’s family won’t reject her. Mahek agrees that the plan is clever. Prachi worries about getting caught. Sensing her discomfort, Priyanshi tells Jhanak not to pressure her aunt, saying Prachi never did anything for herself and shouldn’t feel obligated to do anything for her either. Prachi quickly denies saying that, but Priyanshi holds her ground, expressing her desire to study and change her life, declaring that the world isn’t the same as it once was. Prachi dismisses her hopes, calling them impossible. Jhanak reassures Prachi that Vihaan will accompany them, so if anything goes wrong, she won’t be blamed.

Prachi points out that Ketki won’t allow them to leave the house for shopping, but Mahek remains confident, saying they’ll see what Ketki says. Jhanak adds that Vihaan will find a way to convince her. Prachi quietly admits that she has always dreamed of seeing Priyanshi dance on stage and receive admiration from the crowd. She wants that future for her, but doesn’t have the strength to fight the family for it. Jhanak encourages Priyanshi not to lose hope—she believes that one day, Priyanshi will perform and fulfill her dream. Touched, Priyanshi hugs her and praises her spirit. Jhanak then begins checking Priyanshi’s costume and ties her ghunghroo. Elsewhere, Dadi shares her worry with Choton that she doesn’t have any jewelry left to give to Mrinalini. Anjana steps in and promises to handle that responsibility. Tanuja cynically asks whether Lalon contributes financially. Anjana tells her that even if she denied it, Tanuja wouldn’t believe her. Anirudh interrupts, assuring everyone that the wedding will be grand no matter what.
Meanwhile, Ketki questions Vihaan about their trip to the city, suspecting Jhanak’s involvement behind it. Mahek steps in to explain that since the boy’s family is from the city, they want Priyanshi to appear well-groomed to leave a good impression. But Ketki refuses flatly, saying Priyanshi will not leave the house. She insists that there’s no need for expensive clothes and that simplicity is better. Mahek tries to argue, saying times have changed, but Ketki won’t budge.Back at home, Anjana asks about Arshi’s health reports. Anirudh assures her that Arshi is doing well and can lead a normal life. Arshi then expresses her wish to go to Gujarat for Ahaan’s birthday. Shubh warns her against traveling, but Arshi insists she’ll get medical clearance—she’s tired of feeling trapped at home. Anirudh, though concerned, agrees to let her go if the doctor gives the green light.
At the same time, Ketki scolds Prachi, but Vihaan steps in to defend her, saying the outing wasn’t her fault. Sejal mocks Prachi, pointing out that she never liked going out anyway. Mahek sarcastically notes that someone mature has to stay behind to handle the house. Just then, Jhanak enters with Priyanshi. Ketki immediately lashes out at her, accusing her of misleading Vihaan. Vihaan defends Jhanak, but Ketki mocks him, telling him to keep covering up her mistakes. She also blames Prachi for planning the outing and repeats that Priyanshi should look simple and stay home. She sends Priyanshi off to sleep, saying she needs to look fresh for when the boy’s family arrives. Seeing this setback, Jhanak quietly decides she’ll find another way.
Later, a host announces the upcoming dance competition. Jhanak looks at Priyanshi, who looks absolutely beautiful in her costume, and praises her glow. But Priyanshi is nervous, worrying about how she’ll return home after the event. Jhanak encourages her to focus only on her performance, reminding her that Vihaan will handle everything and come to pick them up.
UPCOMING
Vihaan informs Jhanak that Arshi might be traveling with Anirudh. Meanwhile, Anirudh hints to Arshi that something special is waiting for her in Gujarat.
