Today’s episode begins with Mahadev and his family waiting for Laju at the temple. As they arrive Mogra praises Ashish and both Ashish and Satya thank her while Ketan playfully teases Ashish. Laju asks Mahadev about Dheeraj and Rajji and he tells her that they have gone to college.
As Mahadev and his family proceed toward the temple Laju tells Mogra that it’s good Dheeraj and Rajji removed themselves from their path fewer enemies mean fewer problems.
Narmada Grows Suspicious
Narmada lies to Mogra saying her necklace broke and she is getting it fixed. Then she reveals that Rajji told her everything about Mogra and Shikandar asking her not to worry as the truth is still limited to her. She then questions Mogra about whether Shikandar met her after the kidnapping. Mogra is shocked and denies it.
Narmada says the events of that day were strange and confusing. She notices Mogra sweating and questions her behavior. Meanwhile Laju observes Narmada and comments to Mahadev that although Narmada appears to be Mogra’s younger sister-in-law she behaves more like an elder one.
Narmada asks Laju about the bungalow whether it belongs to them and if they live there. Laju interrupts both Narmada and Mogra telling them to gossip later. Narmada wishes Rajji were there to handle Laju and reveal Mogra’s truth.
Laju Manipulates the Wedding Date
Laju asks the priest to find an early wedding date. The priest suggests a cleaning ritual in two days and a wedding date after fifteen days. Mahadev worries that preparations cannot be completed so quickly and asks for another date.
In a flashback Laju is seen bribing the priest to suggest the fifteen-day date and to claim that if missed there will be no auspicious date for six months. She also reveals to Raju that she plans to make Mahadev bear all the wedding expenses.
Back in the present the priest repeats the same condition. Vidya objects but Laju manipulates the situation saying it feels like a divine sign and that they should proceed quickly. Mahadev agrees despite Vidya’s concerns insisting fifteen days are enough.
Narmada finds the haste suspicious while Laju is delighted and pushes to begin preparations.
Laju Next Move
Laju requests Mahadev to bear all wedding expenses claiming it is her daughter’s wedding and she wants to celebrate wholeheartedly. Mahadev counters that it is his son’s wedding and he wants to spend freely as he missed the chance during his other sons weddings. He suggests splitting the expenses equally.
Laju agrees but insists on managing the engagement arrangements while future expenses can be adjusted together. Both families agree and celebrate by feeding sweets to each other.
Narmada’s Calculated Move
After Mahadev’s family leaves Narmada praises Laju’s generosity and suggests she should fully enjoy spending on her daughter’s wedding. She offers contacts for decorators, caterers, and banquet halls advising her to book them with advance payments.
Laju realizes Narmada is very sharp. After she leaves Raju warns Laju Narmada will expose everything. Laju scolds him for thinking negatively.
Raju worries about arranging money for the wedding. Laju admits she doesn’t yet know how but is determined to arrange it at any cost. She vows to get Mogra married into Mahadev’s family no matter what.
Bhanu Reveals a Shocking Truth
Bhanu confronts Laju questioning her decision to marry her daughter into Mahadev’s family. She warns her to learn about Mahadev’s past before making such a decision.
Laju claims she already knows about Mahadev’s sons love marriages. Bhanu then shocks her by revealing that Mahadev was once arrested for theft and accused after Dheeraj’s wife Rajji ran away with stolen jewelry.
She reveals she is Mahadev’s neighbor and Rajji is her niece. To prove it she shows Laju a photo. Bhanu says she came to warn her and feels relieved for saving another girl from being pushed into hell.
Dheeraj Struggles for Work
Meanwhile Dheeraj desperately searches for a job agreeing to work any shift or role. After repeated rejections he finally finds a man willing to give him labor work loading boxes into a vehicle for minimal pay. Despite being questioned about his background Dheeraj insists he wants to earn on his own and begins working.
Laju’s New Plan
Raju tells Laju they narrowly escaped disaster as Mogra could have been trapped in that house. Laju dismisses Mahadev’s family as no better and says in today’s world no one is truly respectable.
Now that she knows their truth she decides to use it to her advantage. A new plan begins forming in her mind.
A Missed Encounter
Mahadev’s car passes by the same area where Dheeraj is working. Dheeraj loses balance and falls while Vidya feels his presence but fails to notice him as the car moves ahead.
Vidya expresses concern feeling something is wrong with Dheeraj.
Bhanu’s Revenge Plot
At Bhanu’s house she tells Yash that when the wedding breaks Mahadev will be completely shattered. She vows not to rest until she destroys him entirely.
Meanwhile Maddy tries to impress Bhanu with which angers her. She scolds and threatens him even warning she could send him to jail. Maddy responds that he would go to jail for her further irritating Bhanu before she storms off.
Narmada Consoles Rajji
At Mahadev’s house Narmada tells Rajji that she should have come with them to the temple today. She asks Rajji what happened and whether everything is fine. Rajji says yes but Narmada notices her face and says it doesn’t look like everything is okay.
Narmada reminds her that she is the daughter-in-law of this house and came into this family under very difficult circumstances. She explains that it’s possible that Rajji and Dheeraj might never have met and he could have married someone else but fate brought them together. She adds that their relationship of friendship she is her friend and even her partner in crime.
Narmada questions her saying that if she considers him her friend then how can she hide things from him? She should tell him what’s troubling her. Hearing this Rajji gets emotional and hugs Narmada. Rajji reveals that because of the ongoing conflict between Dheeraj and Mahadev her relationship with Dheeraj is also getting affected and she is unable to handle it anymore.
Narmada consoles her and shares her own experience. She says that when she first came into this house she also felt like crying a lot but later Vidya told her that she had been dealing with similar tensions for the past 25 years. She explains that women often have to manage everything alone their husbands, in-laws, parents and even their own emotions and this is what makes them stronger than men.
Rajji Appreciates Narmada
Narmada then tells Rajji to stop crying and shifts the topic asking what move Laju played today at the temple with Mogra’s family. Rajji tells her everything and explains that Laju has already told them to go ahead with the booking after giving an advance and now they will see whether they actually proceed or not.
Rajji appreciates the move saying that putting the responsibility of booking on Laju was a smart step and now they will know whether she is serious or just talking.
Narmada says she hopes the booking happens so she can feel relieved because she constantly fears that the other side might be hiding something and trying to trap Mahadev.
Vidya’s Preparations For Wedding
Later Vidya asks Narmada and Rajji to come for saree shopping. In a light mood Vidya jokingly tells Narmada to share some good news so they can bring even more sarees into the house. Narmada blushes and Rajji laughs.
Vidya shows them a saree she has selected for Mogra and asks Rajji for her opinion. Rajji suggests that they should ask Ashish instead and ask him to send photos to Mogra so he can choose according to his preference.
Just then Priya calls out to Ashish. Vidya asks him to look at the sarees and send the pictures to Mogra so she can pick the one she likes while Priya playfully teases him.
Laju Confronts Mahadev
At Mahadev’s rice mill Laju arrives with Raju. Mahadev asks what happened and if everything is fine.
Laju says that she never expected him to hide such a big truth from her. She reminds him that she was ready to take full responsibility for the wedding expenses yet he wasn’t ready to tell her the truth.
Mahadev asks what truth she is talking about. Laju replies that she was about to proceed with all the wedding arrangements from the pandal to the catering when she found out something shocking beforehand. She adds that she now knows everything that happened during his sons weddings.
Mahadev says that he had already told her about his son’s marriages earlier but Laju insists that he didn’t reveal the real truth. Mahadev asks her to explain and Laju reveals that Bhanu had come to meet her and told her everything. Mahadev says that Bhanu still hasn’t accepted Rajji and Dheeraj’s marriage.
Laju then directly questions Mahadev asking whether it is true that there was a jewelry theft in their house and that Dheeraj and Rajji were accused and even arrested for it. Mahadev admits that the incident is true but the case was false and tells her that she can verify it at the police station. Laju however questions him again asking why he hid this truth from her just like the other things.
Mahadev explains that he never intended to hide anything deliberately but Laju says that he has broken her trust. She expresses her concern saying that Mogra’s life is at stake and she doesn’t know how she can trust him or his family now. With this Laju leaves leaving Mahadev heartbroken and shaken by her words.
Precap: Rajji goes to confront Bhanu but Vishwa pushes her. Mahadev steps in to protect her and when Vishwa tries to slap Rajji Mahadev gets hit instead.
This leads to a heated fight between Dheeraj and Vishwa. In anger Vishwa threatens to kill Mahadev and in retaliation Ashish smashes a bottle on Vishwa’s head. Satya and Dheeraj are left shocked as the situation spirals out of control.
