Scene 1: Whispers of Fear and Morning Talks
The episode opens with Bablu looking at Apu and gently saying, โYouโll stay alive forever. Donโt say such things again.โ Apu looks down and says, โItโs not like I want to dieโฆ but I feel like Iโm going to.โ Lalon, standing close by, cuts in. โApu, stop talking like that.โ He doesn’t wait for more and leads her away. The next morning, a calm moment begins with Mimi helping Jhanak get ready. As she fixes Jhanakโs outfit, Mimi says, โFinally, your dream is coming true.โ
Jhanak responds softly, โThis was never my dream. I never wanted to break anyoneโs family.โ Mimi smiles a little. โLoving someone isnโt wrong.โ Jhanak looks at her and says, โI wouldnโt have agreed to marry Aniruddh if I didnโt love him.โ Mimi nods. โAnd he loves you tooโso much.โ Jhanak, curious, asks, โWhat did Anirban say?โ
Mimi explains, โI had to delay the marriage. After I marry, I wonโt be able to come to Bose house. But I love Anirban a lot. Thatโs why I agreed to his parentsโ conditions.โ Meanwhile, Siddarth is with Arshi and brings her a glass of juice. Arshi answers a call from Bipasha. Bipasha quickly shares the news. โJhanak and Aniruddh are having their Aashirvad ceremony.โ She continues, โYouโve suffered so much because of them. Donโt forgive them, Arshi.โ Bipasha adds, โYou should settle down with Siddarth. Show Aniruddh you can be happy too. He never valued you.โ
Arshi replies with a firm tone, โI wonโt forgive Aniruddh.โ Bipasha promises to send photos of the ceremony.
Siddarth brings breakfast. Arshi, still on call, says, โNo one has ever cared for me like Siddarth.โ Bipasha says, โYouโre lucky. Heโs a good man.โ Arshi ends the call and tells Siddarth about the ceremony. He calmly says, โEat something first.โ Bipasha, meanwhile, feels glad that she managed to trigger Arshiโs emotions.
Scene 2: Unspoken Fears and Gentle Encouragement
Jhanak, back in her room, tells Mimi, โI think Shubhankar can tolerate me now. Maybe one day, heโll accept me too.โ Mimi sighs, โBut in trying to win one person, donโt lose others.โ Jhanak shakes her head. โPeople can change.โ Mimi smiles, โYouโre looking extra beautiful today.โ Jhanak replies, โThatโs enough makeup talk now.โ Mimi teases, โLet me bring Aniruddh. Heโll say the same.โ Jhanak quickly says, โNo, donโt do that.โ
Mimi then reflects, โAniruddh used to be different. Arshi changed him.โ Jhanak defends Arshi. โDonโt say that. Arshi just has a different way of loving.โ Mimi frowns, โWhy are you defending her?โ Jhanak looks serious. โBecause she gave up her love, her husband.โ Mimi asks, โAre you feeling sorry for her?โ Jhanak explains, โI never meant to come between them. But things happenedโฆ maybe it was Godโs will.โ Mimi holds her hand. โYou and Aniruddh are meant to be.โ Jhanak whispers, โStillโฆ Iโm scared Iโll lose him.โ Mimi gently says, โThatโs what happens when weโre truly in love.โ
Just then, Aniruddh walks in. Mimi looks at him and says, โWhy are you here?โ He replies, โI was looking for Choton.โ Mimi grins. โOr maybe you just came to see Jhanak?โ She laughs and walks out, leaving the two alone. Aniruddh steps closer to Jhanak. She says quickly, โYou should go.โ He doesnโt leave. โWeโre finally getting married, Jhanak. And when Iโm with you, I feel stronger.โ Mimi peeks back into the room, smiling. โSo romantic!โ Aniruddh walks out. Mimi tells Jhanak, โIโm really happy for you.โ
Scene 3: The Ceremony of Mixed Blessings
The Aashirvad ceremony begins. Amitabh steps forward, blesses Aniruddh and Jhanak, and gives them a gift. Jhanak looks touched. Bablu turns and asks, โWill Arundhati bless them?โ Arundhati responds, โMy husband gave them blessings. Thatโs enough.โ Aniruddh says, โNo need to bless us if itโs not from your heart.โ Jhanak quietly adds, โBut itโs my duty to take her blessings.โ Apu speaks up, โWhy canโt you bless her?โ Arundhati replies, โCalm down, Apu. Youโre not well.” Apu answers, โIโm feeling fine now.โ Mrinalini then invites Bablu and Anjana. They come forward, give their blessings, and offer a gift to the couple. Bablu looks around and says, โWhat about Shubhankar?โ Shubhankar replies, โWhy would I bless someone I havenโt accepted as my daughter-in-law?โ
Mimi turns toward him. โWill you ever change?โ Rimi scolds Mimi for speaking like that. Aniruddh steps in. โIf you canโt respect Jhanak, then just leave.โ Mimi turns to his parents and Rimi. โYes, all of you can leave if thatโs the case.โ Choton stops everyone. โNot today. No fighting.โ He blesses Jhanak and Aniruddh along with Mrinalini. Laal comes up next. โForget what happened. Just be happy, Jhanak. And keep Aniruddh happy too.โ Bablu looks at Bipasha. โJoin Laal in blessing them.โ Laal stops her. โI donโt have any bond with you anymore.โ
