Radha Mohan 12th August 2025 Written Update Zeeworld
Mohan is driving, lost in his thoughts, haunted by a voice he can’t forget. He knows he can’t be mistaken—it’s Radha’s voice. How can someone else sound exactly like her? Why does it feel like she’s close? He shuts his eyes, then glances at the rearview mirror where he sees Yug’s photo. But his focus quickly shifts to an ad, and something catches his attention. Suddenly, he bolts from the car and rushes toward a truck, convinced it holds some answers. But just as he nears it, the truck drives off, leaving Mohan standing in the dust, frustrated and tense.
Meanwhile, outside the school, Yug sits in his car, watching students exchange holiday wishes. He notes that the school has officially closed. Spotting Manan, Yug quickly rolls up the window, concocting a sinister plan. He muses that even beggars wouldn’t let them plan a murder this recklessly. But just as he plots, he turns and is startled to find Manan standing at the window. Trying to play it cool, Yug invites him into the car, claiming it’s been too long since they spent time together. But in his mind, he’s planning something far more sinister.
Elsewhere, Gungun expresses concern that Radha will return in eight days and worries about the fallout. Ketki agrees, fearing the emotional damage it could do to Mohan. Radha may have moved on, but Mohan is still trapped in the past. If he sees her, it could shatter him completely. Ketki is especially anxious when she spots Ajeet at the school, wondering why he’s there since school ended a while ago. She realizes something is off.
Mohan, meanwhile, is overwhelmed with emotion. He believes he’s been chasing Radha for too long, seeing her face everywhere. He prays for a real encounter before his mind breaks. Just then, Ajeet’s car breaks down. He reluctantly calls Mohan for help, asking if he can pick up Sargam from school. Mohan, surprisingly calm, agrees. Ajeet is taken aback by Mohan’s unusual tone but lets it go. Once Mohan drives off, Ajeet prays to Ba Kai Bihari Jee, hoping that Radha and Mohan will somehow cross paths. He believes fate will bring them together again. Back at the school, Manan innocently asks his father why they’re still waiting. Yug seethes internally, convinced beggars are interfering again. Just then, Sargam approaches the car and recognizes Yug. She cheerfully insists he drop her home, saying she lives nearby. Manan supports her request. But Yug, panicked by the sudden change, tries to get rid of her by taking her to the teacher and citing child safety. The teacher agrees, and Yug breathes a sigh of relief. He tempts the children with pizza as a distraction and ushers Manan back into the car.
Meanwhile, Mohan is furiously driving, scolding himself for trusting others to pick up Sargam. At that moment, Yug pulls the car over, claiming he has to go back into the school for some work. Manan questions him, but Yug brushes it off, saying the school is closed only for students, not adults. He walks inside. Inside the school, two guards are talking about how they plan to enjoy their long vacation. One jokes about having to do his wife’s chores. In the car, Manan is surprised when a Sikh man appears, demanding to know where his father is. When Manan says he went into the school, the man threatens to break the car window if Manan doesn’t call him. Terrified, Manan runs inside to find Yug. Yug silently prays the guards don’t stop Manan, or his entire plan will fall apart. Just then, Radhika calls, but Yug declines, too focused on his dark intentions.
Yug hides behind an ad poster inside the school, causing it to fall and distract the guard. He grins, knowing Manan is walking into his trap. Manan searches for his father, calling his name through the empty halls. Finally, he walks into a classroom. In the shadows, Yug creeps up behind him with a stick. Without hesitation, he hits Manan, who crumples to the ground, his forehead injured. Yug quickly locks the classroom door and sits outside, smirking. Inside, a terrified Manan calls out desperately for help—for his mother, father, and even the guard. But no one comes. All the while, Yug listens, amused by the sound of Manan’s fear. Radhika stares at the broken photo of Manan, wondering how it fell. It’s just a picture, yet the uneasiness that creeps into her chest feels much heavier. She tries to brush it off, scolding herself for being overly sensitive. But something about it won’t let her rest.
Meanwhile, at the school, Yug stands outside, muttering darkly to himself that no one can save Manan now. Just then, Mohan arrives with Sargam and pats Yug on the back, asking where the little one is. Yug stammers that Manan must be waiting in the car. As Mohan walks toward the vehicle with Sargam, he peers inside curiously and again questions Yug about Manan. This time, Yug is caught off guard, his face stiffening in shock. A little while earlier, Yug had struck Manan and locked him inside a classroom. The school, now deserted and eerily silent, echoed with Manan’s desperate cries for his mother and father. Yug, satisfied with what he’s done, smirked as he walked away. In his mind, he convinced himself that Manan had ruined his life—and now, he was going to return the favor with a dose of death.
Back at home, Radhika is packing her bags, trying to mentally detach from everything. She feels like fate is mocking her. No matter how far she tries to run from Mohan, he keeps coming back into her life. She left Varandhwan just to escape him, yet he followed her to Mumbai. Even today, he showed up at her radio station. She prays that by the time she returns from Barsana, Mohan would have left the house and finally their unfinished story would come to an end. As she packs, her elbow knocks over the photo frame of Manan, which falls and breaks. For a moment, Radhika stands frozen. Her heart pounds. It’s just a coincidence, she tells herself—but a part of her feels like something terrible is happening. Her breath grows short. At that moment, Punam enters the room smiling, and Radhika asks if she needed something. Punam smiles and says she doesn’t need a reason to come see her. Sitting on the bed, Radhika says she’s glad Punam came, since she’s leaving soon. Punam gently asks where Manan is, and Radhika replies that Yug went to pick him up—they should be on their way by now.
Punam’s expression changes. She asks again, softly but firmly, “Yug went to pick him up?” Radhika nods, then confesses that the broken photo and her uneasy feeling are making her anxious. Punam’s face turns serious. She remembers Yug’s chilling words—that Manan was the only thing standing between him and Radhika, and he would remove the obstacle. Now holding the shattered photo in her hand, Punam fears the worst and urges Radhika to call Yug immediately.
At the school, Yug is in a disturbingly cheerful mood. He slides down the staircase railing and hums a tune to himself, joking that school is fun at every age. Laughing, he tells himself that he’s clearing the path to his and Radhika’s future. When Radhika’s call comes in, he deliberately ignores it, slipping the phone into his pocket with a grin. He tells himself that after all this, he’ll finally have peace—Manan won’t come between them again.
Inside the locked classroom, Manan continues to cry and bang on the door, calling out to his parents. Back at home, Radhika tells Punam that Yug isn’t answering, which only heightens her fear. Punam tries to stay calm, but her worry deepens. She wants to believe Yug is just busy—but her heart keeps whispering that something is terribly wrong. Back at the school, Yug sits quietly on the steps, thinking about how Manan always used to call him “Papa.” That memory pulls at his conscience for a second. He walks back toward the classroom and hears Manan sobbing, kneeling by the door, begging someone to let him out. Yug reaches for the lock… but stops. Flashes of resentment hit him—how Manan brought Mohan and Radhika together at the party, how he always took the spotlight, always got in the way.
Yug clenches his jaw. The child’s cries are painful, he admits, but says it mirrors how he felt—how no one listened when he cried out. He thinks to himself that when school reopens in two months, they’ll only find Manan’s skeleton. That’s how it should be. He mumbles that Bhagwan is unfair, taking good souls early. He calls Manan a good boy who used to greet everyone kindly, but says this is how it ends. As Manan’s cries echo behind him, Yug walks away. Elsewhere, Mohan arrives at the school to pick up Sargam. Her teacher mentions how long she waited after everyone else had left. Mohan thanks the teacher for taking care of her. Sargam jokes that he should transfer her parents’ scolding to her since she’s their only precious daughter. Mohan laughs and explains that her parents were busy with work. Sargam insists on getting ice cream, saying her blood pressure will drop otherwise. They head toward the car. But as Mohan nears it, something feels off. He pauses, and asks Sargam if Manan left earlier. She replies casually that his dad took him long ago. Mohan’s concern grows, but he quietly gets into the car and drives off with her.
As Yug tries to leave the school, the guard stops him and asks whether he found his son’s belongings. Yug is momentarily stunned—he forgot his own lie. He quickly recovers and says it’s fine, that his son probably forgot something, and he’ll buy it again. Walking away, he coldly whispers that Manan should never cross paths with him again, and hopes he dies without pain. In his mind, it’s all justified. But just then, Mohan arrives behind him and pats him on the shoulder. Yug flinches slightly but covers it up, greeting him with a smile. Mohan says they were just stopping for ice cream because Sargam asked. Yug awkwardly responds that the heat is getting to him. Mohan asks again, “Where is Manan?” Yug replies that he left him in the classroom and later brought him to the car, then went back inside. Mohan starts walking ahead but suddenly bumps into someone he knows—Sodhi—and stops to chat briefly. While he’s distracted, Yug tries to smooth things over, but Sodhi seems angry about something.
As Mohan looks around and still doesn’t see Manan, a sense of dread creeps over him. He turns back to Yug with narrowed eyes and asks again—this time, more firmly—“Where is Manan?” The question hits hard. Yug freezes, caught off guard by the growing suspicion.
