Jhanak: Aniruddha declares Jhanak his true wife, rejects all ties with Arshi

Tonight's Jhanak episode begins with a tense discussion regarding Jhanak's whereabouts, as Aniruddha has not received any updates about her. Just as he prepares to leave the house in search of Jhanak, the family intervenes, urging him not to go out. Arshi, Bipasha, and Srishti deliberately create confusion to prevent Aniruddha from discovering any information about Jhanak.

Meanwhile, by the riverbank, a hermit performing mantras suddenly notices a car submerged in the water. Acting quickly, he calls for help to rescue the vehicle. With the assistance of a crane, the car is retrieved from the river, and an unconscious Jhanak is found inside. Despite efforts to revive her, she remains unresponsive. The hermit instructs a reporter to circulate news of the incident along with a photograph, hoping her family will recognise her and be informed of the accident. Jhanak is then taken to the hermit's hut for care.

Shortly after, Aditya, Chhoton, Aniruddha, and Lalaon arrive at the police station to file a missing person's report. Aniruddha, feeling utterly powerless, is frustrated by the lack of news about Jhanak. Chhoton expresses his suspicion that Tejas might be behind the events. He devises a plan to gather evidence, suggesting they confirm whether Tejas is currently in Kolkata.

Aditya supports this theory with his own reasoning, leading Aniruddha to believe that if Tejas is responsible, the police will soon apprehend him. Aditya also vows to give his best efforts to uncover the truth. Chhoton then shifts suspicion to Srishti Mukherjee, speculating she could also be involved. Driven by desperation, Aniruddha pledges to save Jhanak, no matter the cost. Chhoton suggests returning home to confront Srishti for any information.

Back at the house, Chhoton declares that there is still no news of Jhanak, all while implying that Srishti Mukherjee may be involved. Bipasha takes this opportunity to tarnish Jhanak's character, insinuating that she may have run away with another man. Aniruddha, enraged, defends Jhanak, his frustration boiling over.

When Arshi questions his intense concern for Jhanak, Aniruddha finally admits his love for her, leaving the family shocked. In his confession, Aniruddha draws a comparison between Arshi and Jhanak, criticising Arshi for neglecting him as a wife. He also stands up for Chhoton, who had been previously humiliated. Aniruddha expresses doubt about the family's unity, fearing that Jhanak's life may be in danger.

The situation escalates when Aditya accuses Srishti Mukherjee of masterminding Jhanak's disappearance. Arshi fiercely defends her mother, refusing to hear any allegations against her. As Aniruddha struggles to contain his anger, he boldly declares Jhanak as his true wife. This declaration shatters Arshi, who is left in tears as Aniruddha rejects all ties to her, demanding she leave his life.

Amid the chaos, Chhoton voices his belief that Srishti is conspiring with Tejas in Jhanak's kidnapping. Srishti is pressured into calling Tejas to locate Jhanak, but Tejas claims to be in Kashmir. Despite their efforts, Aniruddha is left without any concrete evidence, as both Tejas and Srishti continue to deny any involvement with Jhanak's disappearance.
