Jhanak: Arshi gives Vihaan a reality check, revealing Jhanak’s love for Aniruddha

Tonight's Jhanak episode begins with Ketki expressing her suspicion that Arshi might be aware of something about Jhanak that Vihaan remains oblivious to. Mehek suggests that Arshi's anger might be directed at Aniruddha instead. She advises Ketki against making baseless accusations against Jhanak.

In response, Ketki warns Mehek not to meddle in her family matters and suggests she return to Praveen's house. Mehek, visibly upset, declares that if she leaves today, she will never return. Ketki retorts that she should focus on her life with her husband and in-laws. Turning to Jhanak, Ketki warns her that she will not be spared.

Prachi intervenes, pointing out that nothing significant has happened, yet Ketki is making a big issue out of it. Sejal, however, insists that she has always been doubtful of Jhanak and demands to know what she is concealing from Vihaan. Jhanak defends herself, asserting that she has done nothing wrong and is not hiding anything from him.

At that moment, Arshi arrives, and Sejal declares that the truth will finally be revealed. She directly questions Arshi about what transpired. Ketki also asks Arshi why she suddenly ran away earlier. Arshi then discloses that Vihaan is married to Avni. Prachi gestures toward Jhanak and claims that she is Avni.

Ketki reminds Arshi that Vihaan got married while he was in America, so the family was unaware of his wife's identity. She explains that Vihaan only recently returned with his wife and son. Arshi then asks Ketki if she has accepted everyone. Aniruddha steps in, trying to stop Arshi from making further statements.

However, Arshi insists that the woman posing as Vihaan's wife is not Avni, adding that Jhanak never lived in America. Mehek, shocked, asks Arshi to clarify her statement. Aniruddha tries to intervene, asking whether it is necessary to bring this up at the moment. Arshi refuses to stay silent, claiming that Jhanak has been deceiving everyone and deserves to be exposed.

Ketki, struggling to comprehend the situation, turns to Vihaan for answers. Vihaan assures her that he will reveal everything after Priyanshi's wedding. He then confronts Arshi, stating that he married Jhanak following the demise of his first wife, Avni.

Ketki is stunned to hear about Avni's death and questions Vihaan about why he never informed the family. Mehek, too, demands an explanation. Vihaan, maintaining his composure, reminds them that they never accepted Avni or acknowledged their marriage. Since his family showed no concern for Avni, he felt there was no need to inform them about her passing. He then reveals that he met Jhanak in India and later married her, appreciating her support for him and his son.

Arshi, however, disapproves of Vihaan's decision, arguing that he knows nothing about Jhanak's past. Vihaan, unconcerned, states that he has no interest in knowing about it either.

Aniruddha urges Arshi to remain silent until Priyanshi's wedding is over. Vihaan, too, requests Arshi to hold back for now. Meanwhile, Ketki declares that she will only decide what to do after uncovering Jhanak's truth. In response, Jhanak promises to leave the house after Priyanshi's wedding. However, Aniruddha stops her, reminding her that as Vihaan's wife, she cannot simply walk away.

Vihaan later confronts Arshi, reprimanding her for publicly insulting Jhanak. Arshi, however, justifies her actions, claiming that Jhanak is deceitful and only saw an advantage in marrying him because he is a doctor. Despite her accusations, Vihaan stands firmly in Jhanak's defense.

Hearing his unwavering support for Jhanak, Arshi taunts him, suggesting that he has completely fallen for her. She goes on to assert that Jhanak is not loyal to just one man. At this point, Aniruddha intervenes, explaining that his intention behind bringing Arshi there was only to prove that Jhanak had moved on with her life.

Unconvinced, Arshi challenges Vihaan, questioning whether he has already decided to spend his entire life with Jhanak. She demands to know when exactly he married her. Vihaan, however, dismisses the need for such details and urges her to reveal the truth she seems so eager to share.

Without hesitation, Arshi delivers a shocking revelation—Vihaan's belief that Jhanak loves him is nothing more than a misconception. She insists that Jhanak's heart still belongs to Aniruddha, leaving Vihaan stunned by the unexpected truth.
