Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: Tulsi defends herself as Baapji refuses Dev and Saloni’s marriage

The February 17 episode of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 takes a disturbing turn as personal anger spills into public humiliation. What begins as a family confrontation soon escalates into a reputational crisis for Saloni.

Baapji confronts Tulsi, wedding faces collapse

The episode opens with Mihir attempting to explain himself to Baapji. He says he was about to reveal the entire truth earlier, but Baapji refuses to listen. Furious, Baapji accuses Tulsi of hiding facts out of greed for money.

Tulsi firmly denies the allegation. She clarifies that she did not lie for financial gain and insists that every decision she took was to protect the family and Shantiniketan. She explains the circumstances that forced her to remain silent, apologises for the secrecy, and requests Baapji not to break Dev and Saloni’s rishta because of past misunderstandings.

Saloni then reveals that she had already learnt the truth earlier. Despite her honesty, her father remains unmoved. He announces that the wedding will not happen under any circumstances. The declaration shocks the family and leaves Dev visibly agitated.

Dev loses control, Noina fuels anger

Dev’s frustration quickly turns into anger. Noina adds to his resentment by telling him that Tulsi has ruined his life. She warns that society will assume there is something wrong with him since the marriage has been cancelled.

Provoked and hurt, Dev declares that if the wedding is not happening, he will refuse it himself and damage Baapji’s reputation. In a moment of recklessness, he threatens to claim that Saloni had an affair and that is why he backed out of the marriage.

Tulsi remains composed despite the hostility. She says that at this point she is not worried about Shantiniketan but about Dev and Saloni’s relationship. According to her, the young couple should not suffer for decisions that were not entirely theirs.

Meanwhile, Shobha confronts Noina, asking whether she was the one who informed Baapji about Tulsi and Mihir. Noina reacts sharply and denies any involvement. Mihir also states that none of them would have disclosed the matter. Pari then suggests that Ranvijay might have been responsible for informing Baapji, adding another layer of suspicion.

Social media scandal shocks the family

The situation worsens when Dev acts on his anger. In a shocking move, he uploads a photograph of himself and Saloni on Instagram and labels her a “cheater.” He tells his friends to circulate the claim that Saloni had an affair and that this is the reason he called off the marriage. He even insists that the news should reach newspapers.

The next morning, Tulsi and Shobha are stunned to see a headline stating that Saloni cheated on Dev. The public nature of the allegation leaves the family shaken. Saloni’s father immediately lashes out at Mihir, assuming that he orchestrated the defamatory news to protect his own image.

Hemant arrives and apologises for the chaos. He clarifies that neither he nor anyone from their side revealed the truth about Tulsi and Mihir. He also makes it clear that they had no role in publishing the damaging report about Saloni.

As suspicion grows, Parth begins to question Dev’s sudden aggression. He confronts him directly. Under pressure, Dev admits that he was behind the social media post and the attempt to spread the story. However, he shifts the blame onto Tulsi and Mihir, claiming that their actions pushed him to take such drastic steps.

Parth later informs Tulsi that Dev orchestrated the entire scandal. The revelation confirms Tulsi’s fear that anger and ego have overtaken reason. The episode closes on a tense note, with reputations damaged and relationships strained. Dev’s impulsive decision not only humiliates Saloni publicly but also deepens the fractures within the family.
