Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: Gayatri creates confusion by swapping Noina and Tulsi's sarees

The episode begins with Tulsi asking Pari if she's truly happy in her marriage. Pari mentions that it's an arranged marriage, so anything can happen, but she's feeling positive about it. Tulsi inquires about reverse dating, and Pari clarifies that she's just taking things as they come. Despite Tulsi's concerns, Pari expresses her happiness and mentions wanting to meet someone at home. However, Tulsi advises Pari to return home, hinting at potential issues or expectations that need attention.

Mihir pays for the saree, and Gayatri assures him she'll send it to Noina's house. However, she swaps the saree, sending Tulsi's instead. Gayatri then calls Munni, instructing her to keep the sarees.

At the orphanage, Tulsi is distributing essentials to the children when she overhears a conversation between Vrinda and the staff. Vrinda is discussing job opportunities with someone, and Tulsi notices her kind gesture when she instructs the staff to prioritize a girl who had arrived earlier, citing her greater need. Tulsi is touched by Vrinda's selflessness.

As Vrinda notices Tulsi, she apologizes for her previous behavior towards Angad. Tulsi accepts the apology and inquires about Vrinda's job search. Vrinda reveals that her brother has been suspended due to Viren's arrest, and she's looking for a way to support her family. Tulsi, empathizing with Vrinda's situation, offers a solution - she mentions that her company has vacancies and suggests Vrinda apply there. Vrinda is grateful for Tulsi's help and leaves immediately to pursue the opportunity.

Hrithik starts his new role at the factory with an orientation from the staff. However, he feels out of place, confiding in Daksha that he's a creative soul and this environment isn't for him. Daksha tries to lift his spirits by singing, but Hrithik remains unenthused. On her request, he picks up his guitar and sings a song, captivating the employees. Mihir, however, is displeased, scolding Hrithik for not focusing on work. Daksha intervenes, defending Hrithik's youth and creativity. The moment takes an emotional turn as Mihir and Daksha reminisce about their past, with Mihir affectionately calling Daksha mother.

The Virani family is buzzing with excitement as they prepare for Janmashtami celebrations. Noina arrives, and the atmosphere becomes even more lively. Angad and Hrithik engage in a playful fight over adjusting the Dahi Handi, with Tulsi intervening to scold Angad for taking a reckless leap from the ladder. As the preparations continue, Noina mentions feeling a bit out of place since everyone is in the guest bedroom. Tulsi reassures her and asks her to head to the guest room, hinting at a surprise waiting for her. Munni escorts Noina to the room.

Meanwhile, Mihir discreetly asks Tulsi to get ready, suggesting she should change. On a lighter note, Hrithik teases Daksha about her indulging in sweets despite observing a fast, playfully questioning her about her self-control. The scene captures the warmth and humor of the family's celebration.

Noina's arrival in the saree meant for Tulsi sends shockwaves through the family. Everyone's stunned expression speaks volumes. Noina lovingly comments on the saree, completely unaware of the mix-up. Mihir's confusion prompts him to question Gayatri, who hastily attributes the mistake to a packing error. As Mihir tries to clarify the situation to Noina, Tulsi discreetly warns him off, taking him aside to urge him not to reveal the truth. Gayatri chimes in, suggesting it's better to let it slide and instead offers a solution: Tulsi can wear the saree originally intended for Noina. Tulsi agrees, and the situation is diplomatically diffused.

Pari's eyes are glued to Rannvijay's profile on her phone, her expression a mix of emotions. Her reverie is interrupted by Ajay, who arrives to remind her about the Janmashtami celebration and asks her to get ready. As they chat, Ajay inquires about her family, specifically asking how everyone at her house is doing. Pari's demeanor changes instantly, and she becomes visibly nervous. She hastily replies that she only met Tulsi at her house, trying to deflect any further questions. Ajay attempts to get closer to Pari, but she creates distance, asking him to keep his distance. As Pari continues to get ready, Ajay leaves the room, leaving her to her thoughts.

Munni tries to discreetly reveal the truth to Noina about the saree mix-up, but before she can, Gayatri intervenes and explains the situation to Noina. Meanwhile, Tulsi emerges, dressed in a new saree, looking stunning. Noina, realizing her mistake, apologizes to Tulsi for wearing the saree meant for her. Tulsi graciously waves it off, reassuring Noina that it's okay and there's no need to apologize.

Tulsi asks Mihir where Ajay and Pari are, as they haven't arrived. Noina calls Pari to invite her to the Janmashtami celebration. Mihir arrives, and he and Noina engage in a playful banter, ending the episode.
