Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: Nandini decides to end her marriage with Karan; Tulsi gets worried

The episode begins with Munni and Ritik catching up over phone. Later, Ritik notices Samaira's weird behaviour and gets concerned. He heads to Karan Bhaiya and Bhabhi's, who are in town for his wedding with Munni. But Karan drops a bombshell, advising Ritik not to rush into marriage.

Ritik finds Samaira crying and asks what's wrong. She breaks down, saying her dad wants to move to the USA, but her mom disagrees. Ritik thought they'd worked things out, but Samaira says it's still unresolved. She's worried and getting counseling, fearing her parents might divorce. Ritik comforts her, assuring that her parents are mature and would never take such a step. He promises to support her through this tough time. Samaira feels a bit better with Ritik's words. He's always there for her. Ritik's concern for Samaira grows as he hears her fears.

Nandini tells Karan she's done, wants to separate, and asks him to reveal the truth about their marriage post Ritik-Munni's wedding. Meanwhile, Ritik's super excited about Munni, decides to surprise her at midnight with vada pav. He sneaks to her place, confesses he came without telling anyone, and they share a sweet romantic moment. Ritik teases that sneaking around makes romance more fun, asks if they can fast-forward to their marriage. Munni playfully says maybe, but only after asking Maa (Tulsi). Ritik's happy, can't wait for their big day. Their love's in the air.

The Viranis are buzzing with preparations for Ritik and Munni's mehndi ceremony. Pari notices Paridhi getting emotional, missing her husband, and asks what it's like to have someone always by your side. Paridhi's voice cracks as she says Pari's just as good, shouldn't blame herself for past stuff. Their chat hits Pari hard, memories of Ajay and his kindness flood in. She's lost in thought, reflecting on her first love. The mehndi vibes are on, but Pari's miles away.

The mehndi celebrations are on for Munni and Ritik. Amidst the fun, Karan notices Parth acting weird around Vaishnavi and mentions it to Tulsi. She brushes it off, says they're just colleagues. Later, Tulsi senses tension between Karan and Nandini, asks what's going on. Karan spills the beans – Nandini wants him back in India, but he can't go. Tulsi's concerns are confirmed, the marriage is rocky. The festive vibe's a bit strained now.
