Brij gently squeezes Jhanak’s hand as tears well up in her eyes. “Is it my destiny that everyone abandons me?” she murmurs, voice trembling. She reminds him of all her hardships and confesses her fear that she might perish before he ever leaves. Brij’s expression softens. “I won’t ever say that,” he promises, stepping closer. “I’ll stay by your side—always. Now, cheer up and give me the prasad.” Reluctantly, Jhanak nods and offers him the sacred offering.
Across town, Shrishti shares her excitement with Arshi: “I’ve ordered a gorgeous saree for tomorrow’s celebration.” Arshi beams, “You’ll look stunning!” Their banter is joined by Vinayak, who teases, “You don’t even know the guests I’ve invited—and your father’s planned every detail.” Shrishti flushes, “Please don’t embarrass me.” Vinayak grins, “Just wait a few hours. And I’ve arranged a special thali for you—eat what you like, leave the rest.” Arshi laughs, “You really adore Mom.” Shrishti smiles warmly, “I love him too.”
As they chat, Vinayak recalls their first meeting at a party. “I never even asked about your past—I just fell for you,” he confesses. Shrishti’s eyes sparkle with mischief. “Try uncovering my history—you’ll find nothing,” she teases. In his mind, Vinayak realizes her carefully hidden secrets may soon come to light.
Meanwhile, Lalon is embroiled in a heated phone call about unpaid dues in his colony. His frustration echoes through the walls, catching Anuradha’s attention. “Don’t argue, please,” she implores when he hangs up. Later, when Bablu and little Appu return home, they find Lalon and Anuradha deep in discussion over the same money issue. Appu, noticing Lalon’s rare anger, watches wide-eyed as he receives another call from Bittu, sending him into a fresh bout of irritation.
That evening, Brij gently reminds Jhanak, “We have to attend Vinayak’s party tomorrow.” She shakes her head stubbornly, “I won’t go.” He insists, “It’s important for Vinayak’s sake. We can’t hide from the truth.” Jhanak’s resolve wavers, but she remains silent, torn between fear and duty.
Later, Shrishti pulls Vinayak aside. “If we’re planning for a child, there must be no secrets between us,” she says softly. Vinayak coughs and nods, the moment bittersweet. Noticing Anirudh’s absence, Arshi excuses herself, “I’ll check on him—he’s not feeling well.” Shrishti and Vinayak exchange a quick laugh before Arshi leaves.
Back at home, Brij confides in Jhanak about lost love. “I loved Urvashi once,” he admits quietly. “I walked away without speaking my truth, and she suffered.” His regret hangs heavy in the air. “I won’t let that happen to you,” he vows.
In another corner, Bablu advises Lalon to involve the police over the missing payments. Anuradha supports the idea, but Lalon hesitates. “It’s a small matter,” he protests. Bablu shakes his head, “It’s about justice, not just money,” and Lalon finally agrees to file the complaint.
Later still, Jhanak recounts the temple visit to Brij. “Anirudh and I did puja together,” she says, cheeks flushing. “He offered me a ride home—I couldn’t refuse.” Brij’s face tightens. “Be careful. You know who you really are—remember, you’re Nutan.” Jhanak nods, gratitude and unease mingling in her eyes.
As night falls, Bablu takes a call from Anjana about Shrishti and Vinayak’s anniversary plans. “We must watch over her,” he tells Anuradha. Meanwhile, Appu, ever eager, promises to bring Jhanak back if needed. As the family murmurs prayers for harmony, peace settles briefly over the household.
At Shubh’s home, Arshi paces anxiously. “Where did Anirudh go today?” she frets. Bipasha and Shubh exchange worried glances. Arshi’s mood sours as she recalls spotting Nutan at the temple and wonders why Anirudh felt compelled to help her home.
Before bed, Brij corners Jhanak with a solemn warning: “This marriage with Anirudh—it won’t work. Even if Arshi forgives you, you won’t wed him.” Jhanak’s gaze drops. “I accepted this union as true,” she says softly. “But I won’t repeat past mistakes.” Brij’s eyes glisten with relief and sorrow. “I trust you,” he whispers. “Stay strong.”
UPCOMING
Vinayak will reveal Shrishti’s shocking secret—that Arshi and Jhanak are both her daughters. As the truth unfolds, Anirudh finds comfort in Jhanak’s arms, and Shrishti issues a chilling threat to Brij and Jhanak. What new storms will lie ahead?
