Sia meets her father, gets to know her real parents are somebody else!!!
Sia is crying when Anand tells her he has no feelings for her. He asks her to leave when she says no ou are hiding facts. He is not well , but tries to stop her. Sia comes near him and tries to touch him and says you don't hide your feelings. He says this is the truth, picks her bag and then pushes her out. He closes the door and window. Sia is very upset. She is crying. She tells him you are not well, do not ruin your life. She then gets a half burnt wood piece covered with ash , writes his medicine intake. White tableet 3 times a day, capsule twice a day. She leaves crying. Anand comes out and sees the tablets written. He is disturbed.
Simran is talking to Urmila. She says she is better today. Urmila then tells her about Sid.
She says that Sid is behaving strange and that she does not know tha reason. Urmila requests Simran to talk to him. Simran agrees to it.
Sia is in her hotel. She is crying with Anand's book in her hand. She is telling herself that she should have controlled her feelings and not troubled anand when he is unwell. Why Sia, why did u do this, she asks herself. She then tells Anand asked me not to come again, but i have to go there once to say sorry. Sia goes to Anand's house,but it is locekd. She waits there the whole day. He does not come. Its night time. She is feeling thirsty, goes to the tap to drink water. The water isn't coming. She sleeps there. The next morning, the paper fellow drops the paper, but still no trace of Anand. She is worried.
Sia goes to the publisher to ask him. He is angry at her and says he was wiating for the last chapter of Anand's book. Bcos of her, he has gone away. He says she should not have met him, as he does not like it. I am in a fix, he says. He then says he usually goes away like this withoutb telling, sometimes returns in a week, sometimes in months. Sia is upset. She goes back to Anand's house. She leaves an envelope near the door. She thinks to herself what she has written. She has written Anand, you may think i was behaving very childish and my feelings towards you are not right. But whatever you think does not bother me. I am sorry for what i did. But this is the first time i experienced love in life. You can name our relationship in any way, it is left to you.
Sia goes back to Mumbai, she is in a travel , booking ticket for her London trip. She asks for the evening flight. The lady there asks her to wait. Meanwhile, a person comes there and asks for the pen from Sia. Sia feesl she has seen his face . She tries to recollect.
Simran is with Sid talking. She is asking him wha tthe matter is. He says its nothing, when Sid receives a sms from Sia. He then calls her and asks her. She says she is going by evening flight and that she is in Church gate at a travel. Sid says he wil come and meet her. She agrees. Sid tells Simran about Sia and then goes. Simran reminds him that their talk is still pending.
Sia is in the travel. She keeps looking at the person who is sitting there filling the form. Simran calls her and ask her why she is not meeting them. Sia says she has to go. Simranasks her whether she is alright. Sia says yes. Simran tells her not to forget all. Sia very sadly says she has with her lots of memories to take back. She is very sad about going. She just thinks she should not have come here, so she might have not faced this. Simran advises her and then they disconnect. But all the time, Sia keeps looking at the person. He comes near her, gives the pen back and leaves. Sia then asks the lady there his name. She says Anupam Sareen .She then recollects that he is her father. She runs to him. She asks him whether he is Anupam Sareen and tells him that she is Sia, his daughter. Sareen gets wild. He says yes, i am Archana's ex husband. But i am not your father. Archana is not your mother. Go and ask Archana about your parents .She picked you from some street. Go and ask her, he says and goes. Sia is shocked and stands erect.

Sia to go in search of her real parents!!!
Sid goes there to the travel to ask for Sia. He asks the lady there about Sia Sareen. The lady says Sia has got a confirmed ticket in the eveining's flight. She wolud have gone to the airport. Sid says so he can see her in the airport. The lady says by this time, she would have gone in after security check. Sid is worried. He asks himself why Sia did not inform me or call me?
Sia reaches London. Hers is a very palatial bungalow. She goes in. Archana is at her laptop, sipping her drink and doing something. Sia goes into the room silently. Archana notices her and then gets up in excitement and hugs her daughter. Sia is standing still without reaction. Her granny is in the kitchen, see sSia and is equally excited. She too comes and hugs Sia. She says her mom was very afraid that you did not return early. I told her she might have got a boy there, she laughs. Sia does not react. She then goes to her mom. She asks her is my father really dead? Archana is shocked and so is her nani. Sia says do u know who i met in India? I met my dead father,Anupam Sareen. Archana's face goes pale. She turns her face and then says it must be a misunderstanding. He is no more. Sia then tells her that she asked him his name. He said the same, he also said that he is Archana's ex husband. But he told me that i am not his daughter. He also told me that you are not my mother and that you got me from some place. Archana is more shocked and does not know what to do. Just then, the nani says that man is lying. Sia does not believe and screams to tell the truth. Archana says there is noth ing to hide. He was my husband. Simnce we were seperated parents, we did not want you to go thor' that complication. So i told you that your father was no more. Sia says many of my friends' parents are seperated, but they have not lied.Tell me the truth, she says. Nani says if you want to hear the truth, i will tell you. But,you will shudder after hearing it, she says. Sia says i am prepared, tell me. Nani says your mother sold you for money, we bought you. Sia gets a shocker. Nani continues to say that her daughter(Archana) could not become a mother, so they took her. She also tells her that that man , Archana's husband was so very cruel to Sia when she was a kid. He hated her. This brought about a misunderstanding between him and Archana, leading to their seperation. The lady who sold you to us made the mistake, and my daughter was affected by it, she says and cries. Sia cannot believe what she has heard and just goes into her room and locks herself. Archana tries to stop her, but she bolts the door.Nani says to Archana we should not tell her about the kidnapping, otherwise our love and affection to her for so many years will go a waste.
Sia is in bed, crying. She is again and again thinking about the words her mom sold her for money and they bought her.
Sid is in his car. He is very frustrated and dejected that Sia left without meeting him. He stops the car, puts his head over the steering and cries. Just then , he gets a call from Urmila. She is on her way home from the hospital. She asks him where he is? Sid says he is with his friends. Sid has a music playing loudly in his car. Urmila hears it. Sid says he will be late. Urmila keeps the phone down and then wonders if he is with his friends, why is the music so loud?
Sia is sleeping. She gets dreams of a balance. One side of the balance has a kid crying. The other sid is being piled up with money. She is crying in her dream. The kid is also crying and the money gets weightier than the kid. She gets up and cries more. She is feeling very uneasy bcos of too much of crying. She goes out of the room, takes a glass of water from the table and is drinking. Archana is sitting in the sofa and is sleeping. She hears the noise and wakes up. She sees Sia and then asks her to sit with her. Sia sits with Archana. Archana says i know what you are going thro'. Sia aks her why did my mmo sell me? Archana says forget it. Sia pleads with her and says she wants to know, who hermom is and where she is? Archana says she does not know that, she got introduced to her thro' a nurse. The nurse knew that i cannot get a baby. She knew a woman who was to sell her baby for money. She took me to your mother. I met your mom only once, she says. Sia still cannot believe and asks her why did she sell me?
Its the real Astha's birthday. Simran is performing a havan in a temple. She is there alone. She is wearing a plain yellow saree. She is crying. Asthas's photo is kept there and a pandit is performing the havan.
In Goa, Abhi is performing a havn with Astha's photo.
Simran then gifts sarees to the poor near the temple. She then prays to God that wherever her daughter's atma is , this is to bless her and spread happiness for her. Simran is telling today, AStha would have been 20 years. I was with her for just 2 years , now facing 18 years of seperation , she says.
Abhi is holding Astha' photo in his hand and sitting in his room. He is crying, holds her photo close to his heart and hugs it as if he is hugging his daughter.
Sia is in her room. Archana comes there and tlls Sia to come for breakfast. Sia says she is not hungry. Archana sees Sia's bags unpacked. She tries to unpack it. A tape falls from the bag. Sia takes it and says this is her meeting with Anand. She keeps it inside. Her mom asks her how was her meeting. Sia says i don't know. Sia then asks her whether her mom was very poor and so she sold her.Archana asks her to forget all that.
Simran and Sid are talking about Sia in Simran's house. Sid remains very sad. AStha comes there, tries to fool with Sid .hEdoes not like it. Simran gives a gift to AStha. She thanks her and asks her why she gives a gift on this day every year. Sid says he aslo has got one from Aunty. Astha opens it, it is a game.She wants to go to the mall to buy battery, i guess. Simran tells Sid will come later. Sid is worried. Simran says do not worry, Sia would have been held up. AStha asks what did Sia do?
Sid and AStha are going in the car. AStha says i knew Sia had attitude problems. She is not like me. If you ask me to sit in a bench,i sit , butSia cannot even talk to you before going. Sid does not like it and asks her to keep quiet. She realises that Sid is angry and tells him that in future, she will not talk about Sia. AStha's college has come, she gets down. Sid is very upset with her.
Sia is in her room seeing her old photos. Archana and nani come there with pasta. Sia does not react. Archana sees the old photos in her hand. Sia asks her how old was she when she was sold? 1year or 2 tears, she asks . Nani gets wild and says enough. Sia then tells in very strong words that she wants to find out her real parents, she is going to search for them, even if they both do not help her. Sia is in a very authoritative mood. Nani and Archana are shocked.

Simran knows Sia is in love with a person 25 years elder to her!!!
Sia , Archana and Nani are very sad. Sia is telling them that she will find out her real parents. This makes Archana cry more. Archana asks Sia so, the love and affection i have given you is nothing. Sia says its notlike that. I never want to hurt you. I just want to see my mother once. I want to know who she is. Archana asks what is the use of doing allthis? She folds her hands before her and begs to Sia that she should not be doing that. Don't think of the past,she says. She cries and says the story of your past will destroy our lives. She runs out of the room , she cannot control her tears. Sia is upset that her mom is
crying .She screams i did not mean to hurt you, mom. Nani scolds Sia. So you made her cry. She loves you so much. Bcos of you, she got seperated from her husband. That man said you have to choose between the kid and me to Archana. Archana was very much interested in kids. Now that she had bought you, she had no other choice but to choose you ahead of her husband. So, she came to my place with you in her arms. Is she to be blamed for that, she screams. Sia gets very upset. Nani goes away leaving Sia to think.
Sia is crying and is thinking of the happy times she has had with Archana and Nani. She is reminded of the time when it was Sia's 6th birthday. She then thinks of the time when her mom and nani would stay awake with her when she is studying and give her milk(when very small). Thinks of the time they both spent with her when she was ill. Thinks of the time when a grown up sia comes home with her graduation degree and hugs them both. She has got a cup which Archana sees very proudly. Sia is disturbed with all this. She feels she is not behaving properly with her mother who loves her so much.
She goes to Archana's room. Archana is still crying. Sia goes to her. She says sorry to her mom. Sia says i should not have hurt you. You are my mama, and you are the most important person in my life, she says. They both hug each other. Archana cries and tells her to forget the past. That is what she wants. Sia agrees.
(In the last episode, i wrote that Simran got Astha a gift and it was a game. Sorry, i heard it wrong. It was a web cam. ) Astha and Sid are connecting theweb cam to AStha's computer. AStha is very eager to use it. She does not know any person who has a web cam. Suddenly, Sid remembers that Sia had told him that she has a web cam. So they decide to talk to her. Sia is in her room when she gets a message on her mobile. It is from AStha. Sia is surprised and reads it. AStha has said can you please connect to your computer and chat with me thro' web cam? I have got a new one. Sia replies yes. They both connect. Sid and AStha are together.Sia isthere. THey see each other. Sia says hi to AStha and then to Sid. Sid asks Sia how she is? Sia remains a bit dull. Sid notices this and asks her is she ok? Just then, Archana arrives there with juice. Sia introduces Archana to Sia and Sid thor' the web cam. Archana says hi and says so you are the ones who became friendly with Sia in India. She wishes them. Sia and Archana are talking when Shaguna enters into AStha's room. Shaguna is having a tray with juice in her hand. When Shaguna comes near the laptop, Astha asks her to see thro' the computer. Archana is also seen thro' the web cam. But the moment, Shaguna turns towards the computer, The juice glass drops down from Archanas' hand and she bends down to pick up the broken pieces. In the meantime, Shaguna sees thro' the computer and sees Sia. She says the doll is speaking. AStha then says this is technology, aayi. All the time, when Shaguna is facing the comp, Archana is bending down cleaning up the mess. When she gets up, Shaguna turns around to make the drink for both. So , now Archana faces the comp, but not Shaguna. Archana then goes out of the room. Shaugna too goes out. Thus, nothing does happen. Sia and AStha, Sid continue the talk. AStha says mama gave her this gift. She is very excited. Sia says she too got the web cam as agift from her mom on her 18th birthday. Sia then enquires about AStha's studies. Sia also asks about Sid's hospital. They then end their chat. They switch off their comps.
AStha calls Simran who is in the hospital and thanks her for the web cam. She says Sid and herself have been talking to Sia on web cam. Simran is happy that Sia has a web cam and says we can keep in touch with her. Simran says to aStha write Sia's email address in my diary. Astha says ok. Astha after closing the phone talk tells Sid that mama asked her to write Sia's emailid in her diary. Sid is lost in Sia's thoughts. He does not listen. AStha notices this. She screams hello, then he turns towards her and asks her what did you say about Sia? Sid says Sia was not in her normal self. Sid says he will leave now. AStha says he has to teach her something. Sid is upset. He says he will teach her tommorow and leaves. Astha thinks to herself, Sid is upset here. Sia is upset there. What can be the matter?
Its night time. Sia is seeing the video clippings of herself with Anand. The scene where she is in towel, coming close to Anand, Anand trying to stop her. She says that she had such a wonderful time in Goa. She pleads to him to forgive her. Just then, There is a message in Sia's mobile. It is from AStha. It reads can you come for chat now on your web cam? Sia types yes. She switches on the computer. Sia and Astha beign their chat thro' web cam. AStha says sorry to disturb you in late hour. but i am very excited. Sia says she was also so very excited when she got her web cam. Astha says she is going to Panchvati with her friends for the weekend. Sia asks where it is. AStha says it is near Mumbai. Sia asks whether Sid is joining her. AStha says no, he is a busy doctor and is a very serious kind of person. AStha notices a depressed look on Sia. AStha says sorry for interfering in your personal life. But you look as though you are in love. Is it true, she asks. Sia first says she does not know. AStha says if in love, how can you give such an answer. Come on i am your friend, so speak up, she says. Sia then says you are irght, you told me your secret, so i will tell you mine. Sia says she is in love with him, but does not know whether he loves her. AStha says ok. Sia then says he is elder to me, u know. AStha says what's the big deal? In a relationship, its always the man who is elder than the female. Sia says ya, but he is elder to me by 25 years. Astha is shocked. She gives a very surprised expression on her face. Sia says ya this is true. But make sure that you do not tell anyone that i am in love with a person elder to me by 25 years. When Sia is telling these words, Simran enters the room. Astha notices it and says bye, mama is here and sweitches off the connection. Simran enters and asks AStha why she has not slept? AStha says she was surfing, and runs to her bed. Simran goes away. AStha says Thank god, mama did not listen.
Simran is in her room. She has actually heard what Sia said. It keeps lingering in her ears and she is worried.
Anand is in his home when he notices Sia's envelope on the window sill. He takes it, reads it. It reads, Anandji, I had a very great time with you. I will cherish that time forever. I got to know the meaning of life after seeing you. I express my thanks to God for getting you introduced to me. I know i have hurt you. Please forgive me. You were living in your recluse kind of life , i disturbed your peace. Do not let that pain you. Take care. Bye. Anand is very sad after reading this.
Next morning, Sia is sitting in her bed when Archana arrives with tea. She asks Sia to drink it and then they can go for a walk. Sia says she has not slept the whole night, so will not come. Archana then tells Sia to sleep. Sia says she cannot do it now. Sia does not look at Archana. She is reading the paper. Archana very sweeetly, comes to her to give her tea. Sia says keep it there i will take it in a rude manner. Archana gets upset. Sia does not look at her. Archana goes away. Sia then sees her going and gives out a sigh of relief.
Shr gets a message on her mobile. It is Simran asking her to come on chat. They both get connected. Sia says its very nice to see her. Simran says sorry to disturb you in the morning. Sia says its ok. Simran then asks her is it true that you are in love with an elder man? Sia is shocked to hear this. She at once asks Simran did Astha tell you? Simran says no, it was not AStha. She heard Sia telling this to Astha last night. Sia is very silent.
Simran again asks whether you are in love with a man 25 years elder to you? Sia then agrees. Simran says Sia, you are too young for this. Sia gets angry and tells Simran that you do not understand my feelings. Simran then says I got married to a person 10 years younger to me.Now, you are in love with a person 25 years elder to you? This is too big a gap, she says. Sia gets wild. Simran then asks her whether she is in love with him or is just in awe with him. Simran says if you have any sort of vacuum in your life for a specific thing, whether it be wealth, care, love etc, you try to crave for it. But when you get it, you feel as though you cannot keep it to yourself and it breaks. Such things happen bcos in your subconsciousness, you want it. Simran says this is not love. Sia gets very angry and the says ok, now you are referring to the same line which Anand has written in his book Attraction. Simran says whether it be Anand or me, we will tell you the same thing. Sia now cannot control her anger and screams at Simran saying You have no right to interfere in my personal life. I do not give this right to even my mother, sh esays and just disconnects. Simran is in her thoughts, in a worried look.

Abhi's Nasik Connection!!!
today's episode begins with Shekhar at the jogging track when Simran approaches him saying that she came there in the morning only due to his fear else she would have skipped the jog as she has not slept all night. Says that sometimes one is affected by problems of others although they are not connected to them. She continues saying that she cannot tell him as it is someone's personal problem and she should not discuss it. Shekhar in his usual joking manner tells her that sorrows are best shared and she should tell him what is bothering her. Simran tells him that enough of this chit chat and that one has to change their perspective of looking at life. Their kids are now grown up and they have the ideals and virtues which have been instilled by their elders. Shekhar proposes to Simran in his usual cavalier manner and Simran tells him that he will just never improve and he should behave himself!!
The scene shifts to London and Archana is shown waking up Sia when Sid calls Sia. Sia is very brusque with him and tells him that some problems cannot be shared. They end up being rude to each other leaving them both angry and frustrated.Sia is upset and says to herself that what does everyone want to know from her when she herself does not know. She says that if only she could talk to Anand as he is the only one who can understand her.
Anand is at his home in Goa busy with his pottery and talking to his Publisher. The Publisher tells Anand that another editor has approached him asking him whether Anand would be interested in writing a column for their newspaper to be launched in Goa. Anand tells him that he is just not interested. But when the Publisher tells him that he is one Mr. Bhawani Shankar from Nasik the editor of Nasik Prabhat, Anand agrees to write for him. He says that he knows about their work.
The scene shifts to London and Nani, Archana and Sia are shown talking. Nani suggests that they need a break and they should go away someplace. Sia too agrees to go. Sia then asks Archana about her biological mother. She wants to know how was she and what was she to look at. Nani gets agitated and asks Sia why does she want to know. She should let it go. Archana tells Sia that she met the lady only once and the whole deal was completed in one meeting. Archana adds that seeing the parents of the lady and the clothes that she wore, she was obviously from a very poor family. Nani adds condescendingly that the lady was probably from some slum and in need of money and that was the reason that she sold the child to them. Archana is crying and goes away.
Nani reprimands Sia for upsetting them all and questions her why she is so very interested in knowing her biological mother. Archana IS Sia's real mother who has given her everything. She begs Sia to let them all live happily.
Abhi/ Anand is shown taking a walk on the beach and Bhawani Shankar is approaching from the opposite direction. Abhi quickly walks past him so that Bhawani does not recognise him. Bhawani is a little confused when he sees Abhi walk past and wonders who it was and thinks that he is a familar face and that he probably resembles someone but he cannot remember. Abhi is at his home remembering his days in Nasik with Bhawani Shanker and wonders whether Bhawani recognised him and whether he has made a mistake in agreeing to write a column -- albeit anonymously - for Bhawani's new newspaper to be launched in Goa. Bhawani Shankar is with Abhi's Publisher in the Publisher's office and is very excited when the Publisher informs him that Anand has agreed to write a column for his paper. Bhawani tells the Publisher that the writing of Anand reminds him of his old colleague in Nasik by the name of Abhimanyu Saxena who was responsible for the success of the paper. The Publisher is silent.
Sia is asleep at home and Nani's words continue to haunt her. She wakes up and is quite worked up trying to understand how any woman could give up her own daughter for some money. She decides that she has to meet this woman at least once. When she asks Archana about the details of the woman, Archana tells her that she does not know. Sia is angry and screams at Archana saying that she definitely knows but is not willing to give the details to her.
Nevertheless, she resolves that she will find the woman and will go to India and find her mother as everything is a lie to her presently. Archana pleads with Sia not to go and that she loves Sia too much and not to do this to her. Sia is adamant and says that she has to go and asks them to understand her.
Simran and Astha are at the breakfast table and Astha is excitedly telling Simran about her picnic plans. When she tells Simran that she and her friends are debilitating between Panchavati and Goa, Simran tells her that they should not go to Goa, Panchavati is ok. Astha realises that Simran does not want her to go to Goa because of what happened to Divya and consoles Simran that she will not go to Goa but only to Panchavati for her picnic
Abhi is sitting at the beach when Bhawani is strolling past. Bhawani approaches Abhi and recognises him and they both embrace.Bhawani reprimands Abhi about not thinking about his old parents, his newly born daughter and leaving Simran waiting at the wedding. It is sad what happened to Neha, but he is being an escapist.Abhi retaliates and says what was he supposed to do. He chose to run away. Bhawani says that he should now come back - eighteen years of leading a life of a recluse is enough. He will go back and tell everyone about him.Abhi is angry and says that he will leave everything and go away again. Bhawani is furious and immediately calls Simran from his mobile.
Abhi is stupefied!!!

AStha lands up in Nasik, in Radha's home!!
Bhavani calls Simran , Abhi stands still without reaction. Simran picks up. She gets to know that it is Bhavani. Asks him how he is. Simran asks him whether there is anything important? Bhavani says he is in Goa at the moment. He is launching Goa Prabhat. The date is not fixed. All the tim,e Abhi is showing Bhavani signs for not revealing anything. Bhavaani is also angry at Abhi. Bhavani then asks Simran whether she knows Anand. Simran says she does not know him, but is reading his book. He says Anand has agreed to write a column for his paper.
Simran wishes him congrats. She asks when is the launch? Bhavani asks her whether she can maek a trip to Goa. Abhi is very angry. Simran says she cannot promise, but she will try to come for the launch. She is a docter and she cannot promise. Bhavani then says he will inform her the date. He then asks about AStha. Abhi is shocked to hear the name. Simran says she is fine. Bhavani then enquires about Abhi's parents. Simran says its not good enough to just enquire. If their son is not arouns, he can come and see them as he is their son's friend. Bhavani says he will definitely make it. Abhi just keeps seeing Bhavani. He keeps the phone down. Abhi thanks him a lot. Bhavani gets angry and says to hell with your thanks and goes away.
Sia in London. She is calling the travel office ofr a ticket to Mumbai. Archana comes to her room and hears to the converstation. Sia is telling the person that she wants to go urgently, she knows that it is holiday season, but requests the person to arrange for one ticket. Hearing this, Archana gets angry and goes out of the room. Sia then starts to read Anand's book. She reads some lines from there which says the following: Sometimes we mistake a person and behave badly with him. It happens bcos the person might be concerned about us, might try to help us out, want to share our pains. But we get a feeling that he is interfering in our lives and we end up scolding them. We cannot give anything good in return to the love they show to us. We feel their love is interference. We end up betraying the person who cares for us. She reads this and ends up in some thoughts. She feels probably, she also did the same thing. Simran aunty and Sid were so very concerned about her, but she behaved badly with them and hurt them. She then says to herself that she has to ask for forgiveness and picks up the phone. Then she thinks it will be very impersonal if she called them and said sorry over the phone. She decides that she will go to their place and say sorry directly.
Sid is in the hospital. He is worried over Sia. He writes a SMS to her. He writes, Sia i know you do not like me interfering in your personal matters. But i am worried for you. I feel there is something wrong. You take care of yourself, i do not know why but i am very concerned about you, he writes. He is about to send, when he stops. He then questions himself why am i not able to send the message? What is stopping me from expressing my feelings for Sia? He is upset.
In Anand's house, Bhavani is there charging a mobile. Abhi comes there. Bhavani hands over one mobile to Abhi and says this is for you. Abhi refuses to take it and says he is happy like this. He does not want it. If he wished, he could have afforded a mobile and a landline. But he does not wish for it. He says he is very happy being like this. He loves his privacy very much, he says. Bhavani insists that he being his boss, editor, friend and publisher, wants to bein touch with him. He might have to discuss with him, so needs him to have a phone. He says he cannot send messages thro a kabootar....He pleads to Abhi, he finally accepts it. Bhavani is happy. He tells him that incoming is free. He will not pass on the number to anyone. This is exclusively for him. He asks him to attend only his calls. Abhi agrees. Bhavani then leaves for his place.
The next day, Abhi is writing when his mobile rings. It is Bhavani. He is so impulsive and wants Abhi to pick up the phone. Abhi finally picks it up. Bhavani says Mike testing, sorry Mobile testing and says hello some ten times. Abhi laughs and says i cannot win over you. Bhavani too laughs and says never try to. Abhi then says bye and keeps the phone.
Astha and gang(with 6-7 girls) are driving. A driver is driving the car. All the girls are screaming aloud and singine Antakshari. The driver has cotton in his ears. Suddenly, a girl feels hungry. Then all feel the same. They call the driver, who does not hear anything as he has cotton in his ears. All the girls scream at once and the driver gets frightened and stops the car. He then says he has cotton in his ears. They ask him to stop by a hotel as they are hungry.
Simran is in her house, reading Anand's book when Shaguna comes there and asks her to close her eyes. Simran does, Shaguna gives her a box full of icecream. Simrran is happy and asks her how did she know that she was feeling like having something sweet. Shaguna says she knows it and then says it was AStha who got it for her. Simran is touched and says its AStha's sweetness that keeps her going. She says she misses AStha very much. Shaguna also adds on and says when she is at hom,e she keeps talking so much that we feel tired. Now, when is not here, i feel very sad as i am not able to hear to her calls for AAyi. Shaguna asks Simran tocall her. Simran first says she will not bcos AStha will say it is just 4 hours since she is out and mama is checking on her. Shaugna insists, so she calls. But AStha's mobile is not reachable. Both Simran and Shaguna are sad.
In the car, Astha and all her friends are asleep. Its night time. Suddnely, the car stops. All get up. They get out of the car. All the girls start to ask the dirver what happened. Each one of them gives out a problem in th car and asks whether it is that. The dirver then turns and says Lymphosarcoma of the intestine and bla bla bla....(this is a dialogue in the Hindi movie Anand)...All the girls shut theri mouth as the driver utters these words. He then says there is a problem with the hosepipe. It has to be repaired. All get upset. Then,
Astha calls up Sid and cries to him that their car has a breakdown. She does not know what to do in this night hour. Sid consoles her and tells her that she being Jhansi ki rani
should not get worried. He asks her to look for a house or hotel there, asks them to spend the night at some place. He asks her to keep him informed. AStha then behaves in front of her friends as though she is not afraid of the situation.The driver then says they have to push the car. All the girls start pushing the car from all sides along the road. They keep singing Hum Honge Kamyaab. AS they are pushing th car. AStha notices a light at a distance. She then tells her friends that if they push the car to that place, probably they can stay there for a night. They all go to the place.There is a house there. AStha rings the door bell. Poonam opens the door. Astha does not know her. AStha tells her that they had come for an outing and their car brokedown. Poonam slowly recognises her and asks her whether she is AStha. AStha is surprised and asks her how he knows her. Just then, Radha comes there. She is excited to see her and exclaims My Kid... AStha is first bit irritated on seeing her. She then tells Radha her problem. Radha says come in, Astha says she has her friends with her too. All get in , Radha is very happy that AStha has come to her place for the first time. Poonam is worried and does not know what to do. Radha takes them in. They are talking. There is a photo of Abhi and Neha in marriage dress(the same photo that AStha had seen and Saurabh had said was a drama). Astha does not see it. Poonam sees the photo and just hopes that aStha does not see it. One of the girls tell AStha that the dirver wants 200Rs for repair. AStha takes out her bag to give the money. In that shuffle, the photo of Abhi and Neha fall down. It is turned . So AStha is not able to see it. She says sorry to Nani. Poonam is very worried. AStha bends to lift the
photo when the frame glass which is broken pricks her hand and her finger starts to bleed.
Radha at once takes her into her room to put medicine. Poonam takes the photo once Astha leaves the room. Poonam is wondering what will happen next? She goes inside Radha's room behind Radha and AStha. AStha is seated there, Radha puts a ointment. Astha then lifts her head and is very surprised. The entire wall in one side is filled with AStha 's pictures. AStha gets up and gives a stare at all pictures. There is a collection of all photos, from a kid to the present one, and she is very surprised. Radha and Poonam just look on as AStha moves thro' the room seeing each photo.

Simran revealing her Desperations for Astha!!!
AStha sees all the pictures and is speechless. Radha asks her what the matter is. AStha does not say anything. She goes. At night, AStha and her friends are sleeping. All are excited that they atlast got a house to stay in. AStha says she is feeling sleepy and wants to sleep. But AStha keeps thinking of the photos in Radha's room.
Sia is watching Anand and her stills in thetv. She goes near the TV secreen and says why did youleave me like this? I am in a fix, don't know what to do. But i am coming to INdia and am meeting you. Why can't you understand my feelings? I have to talk to you about it, i will comes there to meet you, saying this, she touches Anand's pictute on screen. She says i will come ther and you have to help me. Don't go away from me, she says.
Abhi and Bhavani are talking in Abhi's house. Abhi is telling Bhavani about Sia. He says he cannot express in words how he felt when Sia was around. He says he does not know the reason for his closeness with her. Bhavani says you are a writer, you deal with relationships, you pen down that, maybe you have got linked to that relationship. Abhi laughs and says Sia is my daughter's age. Bhavani says she is your daughter's age, not your daughter. Abhi says one daughter of mine is gone, i do not recognise the other, but am relieved bcos she is with Simran. Bhavani then asks Abhi what does he think , would Simran have told his daughter about her real parents? Abhi says definitely Simran would have told. Bhavani then says as far as he knows, Simran has not told his daughter the truth.Abhi says no, he is wrong, Simran would not have done that, as it is important that AStha knows the truth. For a transparency in their relationship, Simran would have deifnitely told AStha. If she has not told it, then Simran has done a grave mistake in her life, he says.
Astha is sleeping when Radha goes near her, sits and cries. She touches her forehead and says my kid has come for the first time to my house and i am not able to tell her the facts. I do not know why this is happening to me. But i cursr my fate for this, as i am really unfortunate. I cannot tell her that i am her nani. I love you very much, she says and cries.
Next morning, Astha calls her home from Radha's place. Saurabh picks up. Simran is also there. But AStha talks like Simran to Nanu to fool him. Saurabh realises it is AStha, but talks to her as though he believes that Simran has called. She tells him don't eat the gajar ka halva which Shaguna has made. Saurabh says you and your daughter don't allow me to eat and roam. I am fed up, he says jokingly. Simran then laughs, pickes up the phone. AStha is excited and says you are there mama. I thought i was fooling nanu as always. Simran says nanu has become intelligent now. Where are you, she asks? AStha says guess. Radha and Poonam are there near AStha. Radha makes an angry face as AStha is talking to Simran. AStha tells Simran that she is at dadi bua's house. Simran feels as though she just missed the ground where she stood. She screams at her, why are you there? AStha says her car brokedown , so came to a house, that happened to be dadi bua's house. Simran is more upset. Simran then says give the phone to dadi bua. Radha refuses and says my child has come for the first time to my house and so she needs to talk to her a lot. Simran hears this as Radha deliberately says this aloud. AStha then disconnects the phone. Simran, Saurabh and Shaguna are tensed , do not understand what to do.
Poonam then calls Simran from outside and tells Simran that Radha has not told anything to AStha. Simran does not believe and says this cannot be possible bcos Radha has always been waiting for such an opportunity where she can tell AStha the facts. Poonam again assures Simran that nothing has happened. Simran then tells her to keep her informed.
Astha and her friends are leaving. Radha is in tears. She gives AStha a gift. It is a dress.
AStha says it is lovely but she cannot accept it as her mom has adviced her not to take gifts from others. Poonam comes there after calling. Radha gets angry and says ya i know that your mom will teach you all this. Who is she to tell you not to tak the gift given by your nani, she says ,but when she sees Poonam, she corrects and says dadi bua. Poonam then intervenes and says to AStha your mom must have told you not to take gifts from strangers. But dadi bua is not your stranger, she loves you very much. So take it. AStha agrees. Just then, Simran calls AStha. She asks her in a very tensed tone, has she left dadi bua's house? AStha says not yet, they are just leaving .She says dadi bua gave her a gift. Simran does not allow AStha to complete her sentence, she says ok, take the gift she gives and start immediately. I do not want you to stay there for more time. Simran then tries to control her emotions. AStha says ok and cuts the phone. Radha immediately asks what did your mom say about the gift? AStha says mom asked me to take it. Radha in a very harsh manner says how can Dr. Simran not agree to what i say and do? Does she have the courage to go against me? Astha gets a bit upset. But poonam handles the situation and asks AStha to start immediately as they will get late. They leave.
Abhi is making pottery when his mobile rings. He does not know where the mobile is. So he gets up and searches for it. After a few seconds, he realises that the mobile is in his pocket. He then picks up. It is Bhavani. Actually Bhavani is in the lawn, near Abhi, but Abhi does not see him and starts talking. Bhavani says why you did not pick the phone immediately. Abhi says he is not in a habit of phones ringing, so for a second , did not realise anything. Bhavani then asks why you have made only one pot from morning. Abhi then sees Bhavani there. He says over the phone, he slept late, so got up late, so entire routine is affected. Then Bhavani sees Abhi and comes to him laughing. Abhi still has the phone in his ears. Bhavani tells him to keep it down as he is there. Abhi starts to laugh and says you will never leave your childish behaviour, when will you gorw up, he asks. Bhavani says i will never lose it, as it is always better to have your chidishness somewhere hidden, as it will be of use during bad times. He then enquires about Radha. Bhavani says for RAdha, insulting and troubling Simran is a habit. She keeps doing it, Simran always keeps quiet. Does not utter a word against her. Bhavani then tells Abhi that you are enjoying your life here , not worried about others. But you haveleft your well wishers alone. You have left them in the middle and come here. Do you not think about them? You have run away from your responsibilities. You have been alone , away from the world repenting. But now , you have taken a long break ,so it is high time you return to where you belong, he says. Abhi remains silent. Bhavani goes away. Abhi is thinking....
Radha and Poonam are sitting. Poonam says she wants to ask her something. Poonam then asks her you always wanted an opportunity to tell aStha the fact. FRom yesterday night to today morning, you had all the time to speak to AStha. You will never get such an opportunity next time. Then why did you not tell Astha everything? Radha begins to cry and tells her that it is true that she lost a good opportunity. But she kept quiet not bcos of Simran's fears, but bcos of Sid. He had said that asTha is still childish, a kid. She might not understand what the facts are. She might get into a depression. I want my daughter's only identity to be happy. She is my life too. So i did not tell, she says and cries. Poonam is also very upset on hearing this.
AStha is travelling in the car with friends when Simran calls again and asks her whether she has left dadi bua's house. Simran scolds her and says why don't you understand, do you think you can do anything you want, go and stay with strangers like this. AStha stops her and tells her that she left her house long time back and they have almost reached Panchvati. Simran says ok then, come back soon. I miss you and keeps the phone. After that, Simran is restless. Saurabh is also there. Shaguna says you do not call AStha again and again bcos AStha will get to know that you are tensed for some reason. She will start relating things. SAurabh scolds Shaguna for saying this, but Simran says to her father, yes Shaguna is right, i shoud not show my desperations to AStha.
Astha after the phone talk, remembers the photos in Radha's room, then Simran talking rudely to AStha to get out from there, Radha telling that Simran does not have the courage .....AStha says to herself mama appears to be tensed for some reason. I have to find out the cause for it.

Saurabh unknowingly reveals the truth to Astha!!!
AStha has reached Panchvati. She is wearing the new dress given by Radha. It is a very nice salwar with a short top. She asks her friends whether she is looking nice. All say she is looking cute. They are all talking when AStha gets a call. It is from Simran. Simran is still worried. She asks AStha how she is. AStha says she is fine. Astha says she is enjoying a lot. Simran asks her whether she misses her. AStha says i miss you mama. Simran then asks her when are you returning? AStha says she is starting tomorrow. Astha then very excitedly asks her do you know mama what dress i am wearing? Simran says no. AStha then says i am wearing the dress dadi bua gave, it is very nice, though old fashioned, it fits me perfectly, she says. Simran is lost in thoughts. AStha is waiting for her reply, but Simran is mum. AStha then screams mama. Then Simran realises that she should not reveal her fear and talks. She tells AStha to give her a ring before starting. Simran after disconnecting the phone thinks to herself till when will i be lying to her? When will i tell her everything, what will happen if i tell her? Simran is upset.
Sia is in a library. She is reading a book when she gets a call. It is her nani. She is crying, she tells Sia that her mother has consumed extra dose of sleeping pills and is unconscious. She asks her to come soon. Sia starts to cry and enquires about her mom. She says she will come home immediately. Sia comes home, screams mama. She runs upstairs to her mother's room. There in the room, Archana is in the bed, her mom sitting next to her. Hearing Sia's voice, nani comes out and is about to close the door where Archana is sleeping when Sia comes there. She asks nani how mom is . Nani says she is alright now, but thank god, everything went on well. She must have done some good deeds in her previous birth, so her daughter is alive todays, nain says. She is crying. Sia says i want to meet mama. Nani says you cannot go in. Nani scolds Sia andtells her now you must be happy, bcos you almost planned to kill your mother. Thank god, i went into her room , saw her consuming pills, quickly called an Indian doctor, pleaded with him to treat her daughter immediately, not to lodge a police complaint, that fellow obliged, she says. Who was he ? He was nobody to me, but he understood that i , being a mother was very worried about my daughter, he understood my pain, but you , even after being with us for so many years, do not understand your mother. Your mother loves you so much. Sia cries a lot and wants to go in and talk with her mother. But Nani does not allow her,she folds her hands and tells Sia that you wanted to go to India, right. Please go. Get lost, she says. Sia cries more. She again says let me go in to see mama. Nani says ya, that is what i am saying, go to India,see your mama. Sia says no, i am talking about my mama. Sia cries. Nani pushes her out and says if you want to talk to Archana, then you will have to wait till she gets better. SAying this, she goes inside the room, closes the door from inside, leaving Sia out. Sia is weeping.
SAurabh is preparing medicines. He calls for Shaugna to get tea leaves. Just then,AStha calls. AStha hears Saurabh calling for Shaguna even after picking up the phone. So she mimicks Shaguna's voice and talks. SAurabh asks her are you not at home? AStha in Shaugna's voice, answers i am out buying vegetables,just then, Shaguna comes there with tea leaves. SAurabh sees her, realises that AStha is again playing games with him. He scolds her and says you will one day pay a heavy price if you play with me like this. AStha laughs, then says nanu, i am coming home. she keeps thephone.
Simran comes to Sid's cabin in the hospital. Simran thanks Sid and tells him that AStha stayed for a night at Radha's house, but Radha did not tell anything to AStha. THis was all bcos of Sid's advice to Radha. She thanks him profusely. Sid is very embarassed and tells her that she need not be so formal to him. Simran then says she has a long surgery to do, will take hours, so she requests him to stay back at the hospital, in case of any other
emergency. Sid agrees.
Sia is again near Archana's room, enquiring to nani about mom's health. Nani says she has escaped death, but is still weak. So if she wants to talk, do not tell her any hurting things, she cannot withstand , she says to Sia. Sia agrees and goes into the room. Archana is lyingin bed, her eyes moist. Sia goes near her, hugs her, lies on her stomach. She cries and asks her why did you do this, mama. Why did you want to leave me alone and go? Archana cries and says what more could i do? I feared that you might go away from me. I cannot live without you, so had no other option left, she says. Sia hugs her even more and says i will not go anywhere leaving you, mama. I am your daughter, you my mama. Archana looks at nani who is standing near the door. Nani is giving a very broad and wicked smile to Archana indicating that their plan to stop Sia from going to India worked. Archana does not show any reaction as Sia would see it. But Nani is very happy.
Radha is in her home. She is thinking about AStha. Has pictures running in her mind, AStha lseeping in her house, AStha laughing, talking, then she remembers Neha's face, then AStha's, she cries. Just then, a call comes. It is Sid. He thanks Radha and tells her that even though AStha was there, she did not tell her anything, that is good. He called to thank her for that. Radha is angry. Radha then says ya, you gave me a long lecture, how can i forget? Sid says i am very young , how can i give you a lecture? Whatever i said, was not what i felt. It was what simran aunty and others felt. I am not so experienced to give such advices. I have learnt everything from Simran, he says. THis makes Radha angry. She says ya, when you have such a great advisor like Simran near you, how can you be wrong, she taunts.
Sid then continues and says Simran aunty is very happy that you did not tell AStha the
truth. She came to my cabin and thanked me. She is very happy, he says. Radha after keeping the phone, gets wild and says so Simran is very happy.
SAurabh is at home when the phone rings. It is Radha. Saurabh at once, thanks her for not telling AStha the truth. THis irritates Radha more. She asks for Simran, says her mobile is off, so tried the residence number. Saurabh says she might be busy in the OT. Radha says don't thank me for not telling AStha the truth. I did not do any favour to you. It was just a return of favour to you bcos Simran has forall these years looked after my gudiya so well. So today, i returned your favour by doing something good. But hereafter, do not expect this from me. When Astha comes back from Panchvati, she will deifnitely meet me and then come to Mumbai. So i will tell her the truth. For so many years, you have told AStha that i am bad. But i have changed her attitude towards me, AStha feels i am her family member. So now the time has come when AStha should know the truth. You will not tell her the fact, so when AStha comes here, i am going to tell her that Simran is not her mother, her mother is Neha, my daughter. SAurabh is worried, he tries to console her , Radha cuts the phone. SAurabh is very upset. He thinks of calling AStha, but decides not to call her. He tries Simran's mobile, but it is switched off. So he calls the hospital reception where he comes to know that Simran is in OT. He leaves a message asking Simran to call home, its emergency.
AStha and friends are driving back to Mumbai when one of the friends say that there is a
waterfall nearby, they should spend some time there. AStha says hse has already told her
mother that she has left theplace and is on her way back. Her friends compel her and ask her to call back and tell her mom that they will be staying back for a few hours. AStha calls.
SAurabh is worried, is expecting Simran's call. He is very restless. AStha calls, but before AStha vould say hello, Saurabh thinks this is Simran and says Simran. AStha then decides to fool him again , so speaks in Simran's voice. SAurabh then very hurriedly tells AStha that you call AStha, tell her to come back soon, not to go to Radha's place while returning. He also tells that Radha had called , she said she will not waste another opportunity in telling the truth. She said when aStha comes back, she will tell her the truth. She said we will not tell AStha the truth, so she will tell it to her. She will tell AStha that Simran is not her mother. AStha is shocked. She is just standing like a pillar , Saurabh does not know that he has told the truth to AStha and not spoken to Simran.

Sia restless to go to Goa, meet Anand, Astha pensive, volcano to erupt!!!
AStha is shocked to hear that Simran is not her mother. But she does not give SAurabh any hint that she is not Simran. Saurabh then tells her that she has to call Astha now and tell her to come back immediately. AStha just says yes in Simran's voice and hangs up the phone.
Astha is worried. She does not know whether to believe this or not. Her friends ask her whether she got the permission. AStha does not say anything. Her friends realise that she must have not got the permission and ask AStha to call again. AStha , very much upset, says we are going home. Her friends are disappointed. They pester her, Astha gets angry. Her friends ask her to relax. But AStha is worried. Remains silent the whole way back.
Simran comes out of the OT after finishing the operation. She gives a case study to the receptionist. The receptionist tell her that her father had asked her to call home. Simran is about to call, when the nurse runs and tells Simran that the patient is critical and that her heart beat is increasing. Simran stops calling and runs to the room. She turns and tells the receptionist to call her house and tell her father that she would call a little later.
The receptionist calls home. Saurabh is sitting in a very pensive mood. The receptionist tells him what Simran said. Saurabh says no worry, i have talked to her. The receptionist after keeping the phone down wonders how Saurabh talked to Simran.
AStha and her friends are coming back. Her friends are busy singing Antakshari. AStha remains silent and angry. Her friends ask her to participate but AStha does not utter a word. Her friends start pleading her, AStha gets very angry and shouts at them. She asks them to shut up. AStha does not understand how to react to the situation and starts to cry.
All her friends do not understand what is wrong with her.
In London, Sia is worried as she cannot go to India and hence cannot meet Anand. She has the clippings of Anand running on tv. She stills a picture where Anand is shown in close up. She is talking to him. She tells him that she is not understanding the situation. She does not know what to do now. She says she wants advice from him. My relationships are scattered, i lost it in one minute, she says. I want you, need your help. Only you can guide me out of this. I cannot come there. You please come over here. She says touching his closeup still on TV. Her image is seen on his photo in tv.
Anand is talking to the publisher who has come to his place. Anand is telling him that he is dedicating his new book to Sia. The publisher is surprised to hear this and asks what is the reason for this? Anand says he does not know the reason for it and will tell him once he knows. Just then, Bhavani comes there. The publisher is worried bcos Bhavani has come to Anand's place and Anand does not like meeting people. He goes to stop him when Anand comes forward and they both hug. The publisher is surprised and asks Anand whether he knows him.
Bhavani then tells him that they are old friends, are reliving their old days , he says he used to call Anand Guru. The publisher says he is now happy for Anand bcos atleast he has somebody with him now. He says he was afraid of his loneliness. Anand laughs at it. Anand says to tell you, nobody is close to us, but feels like all are close. All have a laugh at this. The publisher then confirms with Anand about the book dedicated to Sia. Anand just spells out Sia's name and says yes. Bhavani is surprised to hear this. Anand asks the
publisher whether hel will make tea for him. The publisher says no and goes. After he goes, Abhi asks Bhavani whether he will make tea for him. Bhavani says he will like to spend some time here, he cannot make him go by offering tea. They both have a very hearty laugh. Bhavani then asks Abhi about the book being dedicated to Sia. Abhi asks him not to question him again. Bhavani then goes on to tell that you writers are all the same. You have the same effect on you. You write such sweet and big things , but you never ever follow them. Abhi says nothing like that. Bhavani says i told you that she is like your daughter, but not your daughter. Why don't you accept what you feel for her? What do you think of the age difference? Anyway, you are used to this, he says. Abhi gets frustrated. He says there is nothing that i am fearing to accept. You want to believe non-existing relationship, so be it, Abhi says. Bhavani then tells him that he is going to Mumbai. Abhi gives a very refreshing expression on his face. Bhavani notices this and says as soon as i told the name Mumbai, I see that your heart is beating fast. Abhi gives a smile. Bhavani says he will meet Simran. Abhi then fold his hands before him and tells him no to reveal anything. Bhavani says he will need a promise from him. Abhi looks at him. Bhavani says he will get a very lovely present for him and says he will get him his daughter's photo. Abhi is excited and says can you do it? Bhavani nods his head.
Saurabh is upset, is walking restlessly. He calls Sid and asks him where is Simran? Sid says her patient is critical and she is in the ICU. Sid tells him not to worry as he is with Simran. AStha comes home. She just walks out of the car without taking her bag. Her friend calls for her to take her bag but AStha just walks in. Shaguna opens the door. Astha gives her a look and goes in. Her friend gives Shaguna her bag and says she is not well, i think. Saurabh scolds AStha for not calling .He says you have a mobile with you, good that your mom is not here, he says. Astha just goes into her room without speaking anything. Shaguna tells SAurabh that her friend said she is not well. They both go to her room. AStha is lying in bed turning to the other side. She never faces them. They keep on asking her what the problem is, is she not feeling well. She does not speak anything. Shaguna then says she must be tired, leave her, she will get alright. They both go out. Astha watches them go.
Simran comes out of the ICU and tells her patient's family that the lady is fine. Sid congratulates Simran for the success and says he is proud to be asociated with her. They then leave. Simran says AStha will be home , she will not allow me to sleep as she will be talking the whole night. It is going to be endless, she says.
Saurabh and Shaguna are discussing about AStha when Simran comes in. SAurabh then tells her that AStha is not well. Simran goes into her room. AStha pretends to be asleep. Simran very affectionately goes near her, touches her forehead to chekc whether she is running temperature, then caresses her head, then leaves. Astha gives a very angry look to Simran after she goes out.
Simran tells her father that AStha is ok, sleeping. She must be tired bcos of the long drive. She will be ok tomorrow. SAurabh says you handled the situation very well. I was really afraid when Radha told that she will tell the truth to Astha. Thank God, you called up and solved everything,he says. Simran is surprised and says i did not talk to you. When did Radha call, she asks. SAurabh says you might have forgotten that you spoke due to your work tension. I messaged you when you were in the OT. You then called back ,he says. Simran says i received your message, but did not get time to call you. To whom did u talk to, she asks very anxiously. Just then, Astha makes a very violent entry there and screams nanu, you talked to me. Yo told me everything. AStha gives a very angry look to all. Saurabh , Simran and Shaguna feel the heat. All are very upset and are shocked to see AStha in a very angry mood.

Astha reacts badly, hates Simran, has a fall while eloping from house!!!
AStha screams at them and says nanu thought i am mama and told me everything. Why did you all hide facts from me, she asks. Tell me, tell me the truth , she screams. Simran gets a shock. She begins to pant for breath. She sits down, Shaguna goes to help her. Saurabh says whatever he said was not true. He tries to tell her that radha is not mentally alright. Remember when she came to your college and said you are her grand daughter. AStha says i would have not believed this if Radha had told me. But you told me this thinking i am mama. Why did you have to tell mama all this? You all are lying, she screams and cries aloud. Astha says i want to know the truth. Simran then holding her chest, says i will tell you the truth. Shaguna and SAurabh are crying. Simran manages to get up with that breathlessness and tells AStha that whatever she heard over the phone is true. Astha is crying even more.
Simran too is crying and then tells her that the photo she saw accidentally in dadi's house,
in which your papa is with a lady dressed in wedding dress is Neha , your mother.Radha is Neha's mother, she says. AStha takes a step back waving her hand in a no like manner.
Simran says this is true. AStha cries aloud and runs into the room.
In the room, Astha cries, sorrow is catching her breathing pattern and she coughs due to it. Simran , saurabh and Shaguna comes there. AStha cries louder. AStha falls to her bed , cries. She screams at everyone to leave her alone. Saurabh moves ahead to talk to Astha. Simran asks him to leave. She also orders Shaguna to leave. Simran goes and sits on the
stairs where she can see AStha. She sits there and cries. She keeps seeing AStha.
Saurabh calls Abhi's parents and informs him about AStha. He asks them to come immediately.
AStha lies in bed, crying. After sometime, AStha gets up, not noticing that Simran is seated there. She goes to her almirah, picks up the wedding photo of Abhi and Neha. She then notices Simran. She sees Neha's face, then turns the photo towards Simran, just nods her head asking Simran is she her mother? Simran in turn nods her head confirming it. AStha cries, touches Neha's photo, feels it, cries more. AStha says she never ever learnt anything other than calling her mama. Simran comes near her and touches AStha. But AStha moves away.
AStha goes and sits on the bed. Simran sits on the adjacent sofa, tells her that she knows what she is undergoing. I know you will have plenty of questions running in your mind,she says. She also says that she is ready to answer them. Astha is crying all the way seeing Neha's photo. Simran then says Neha is her mama. Her father was first married to her. But they got seperated as they had some problems. Then Abhi married Neha. But Neha died when giving birth to her. While dying, Neha told Simran to bring up her daughter as hers. AStha then asks what about papa? Where is he? Simran then swears and says whatever you know about your father till date, is true. We never know where he is. This makes AStha wild , gets up and screams at the top of her voice. AStha screams and asks how can i believe you? I do not know how many facts you are hiding from me? , she says. Just then, Abhi's parents come there. Simran tells AStha to ask them the fact. They says whatever Simran said is true. But AStha questions her dada asking whatever you told over the phone, regarding the photo was a lie. Why did you not tell me that she was my mother? AStha again falls to the bed , cries bitterly. Simran too catches her chest, sits down crying.
Next scene, Urmila, Sid are also there. Simran continues to cry. Abhis' parents are there. So are Saurabh and Shaguna. Urmila consoles Simran saying AStha is angry with her. But she will very soon realise and come back to her. Give her some time to get adjusted to the fact.
Simran is very upset. Abhi's father also says that she will get alright. Urmila says you were her only bonding, but now when she knows that it is not the truth, it is hard for her to take it. Simran cries even more. Sid cannot see Simran in that state. He gets up, proceeds towards Simran's room. Simran asks him not to go. But he goes.
AStha then tells Sid that all were lying to her. She is not Simran's daughter. AStha continues to cry. Sid makes her sit, sits near her, says what is the big deal if Simran is not your mother? Has she given you any feeling that she is not your mother? She has always loved you as her daughter. Every time, i talk to Simran aunty, she talks to me about you only .AStha is surprised, then says ok, you also knew about it. You all lied to me, she screams. She goes to the hall. Again she screams at Simran and tells her that all know that fact that she is not her daughter. Just that, she alone does not know. Sid who is here for only 4 years knows the fact. Urmila aunty who came just now, knows the fact. I am sure your staff knows the fact. Why, that jogging partner Shekar also knows the fact, i guess. Why am i talking all this? When the servant of the house, knows the fact, she says. Simran at once slaps AStha.AStha cries. All are shocked to see this. Simran cries and in very heavy words, says whom you referred to as servant is your aayi. The very fact that you got to know now and are making a big fuss about , we all knew that.Even after knowing, we consider you as our daughter. For 18 long years, we have been loving and caring for you. Now, you have forgotten those moments. Whoever you refer to as they know the fact, for those, this fact does not make any difference. For us, you were the same AStha whom we love. But for you, in a moment, we have become somebody else. So stop making a big fuss, go into your room,she screams. AStha runs in. Simran sits and cries aloud. Saurabh says this is wrong, you should not have hit her, she is just going thro a bad phase after getting to know everything.
Abhi's father aslo says to Simran, it is not correct to handle this issue with anger. Simran agrees. She then tells all that she brought her up. So she knows her attitude. She will take up the responsibility in handling the situation. She says they all must trust her. Abhi's father says they trust her a lot. Simran then says excuse me and goes into AStha's room.
There, AStha is crying, at the meantime, packing her bags. Simran sees it, comes to her, pushes all her clothes away and tells her she cannot go anywhere. She screams at her to sleep. AStha says this is not my house, cannot stay here. But Simran has already left the room. AStha sits and cries.
Simran then asks sorry to Shaguna for whatever AStha said. Then she tells her to sleep near the main door, bcos they cannot imagine what AStha will be upto. Shaguna agrees. Its midnight. AStha is still crying. Simran is in her night dress, sitting on the floor, with photos spread around her. She is holding a photo of Abhi very close to her heart. Then she picks up a framed photo in which she is posing with AStha.She holds both the photos to her cheat, clings to it as though she is hugging both of them.
Abhi is sleeping, suddenly he gets up, feels uneasy. Sits erect, but still does not know what is wrong with him. He senses that something is wrong.
AStha slowly moves to the main door with her bag. But she sees Shaguna sitting near the main door, sleeping while sitting. She goes back to her room. She then thinks what can be done.
Simran is in her room, she is asleep with AStha's photo still near her chest. AStha then ties 2-3 clothes together, makes it into a long rope, ties one side of it to the balcony rod. She then throws the loose end out, tries to get down thro' it. Suddenly, one of the knots gives way, she falls to the ground screaming mama, with a huge thud. Simran gets up from sleep, thinks that to be her dream, then lies down. But AStha is really hurt, her head and arms bleeding. She is in a pool of blood, unconscious.

Sia leaves for India, Astha runs out of the hospital!!!
Its morning. Shaguna is sleeping near the door. Suddenly, an alarm rings in AStha's room. Shaguna gets up. She realises that it is the alarm. She then thinks and hopes AStha's mood is better. She prays to God, then goes to AStha's room to switch off the alarm. She calls for baby. She switches off the alarm, then notices that AStha is not in bed. She then goes to the bath room, she is worried when AStha is not there. She then runs to the balcony to see whather Astha is sitting there. She sees the clothes tied on to the rod. She tries to pull it and then she notices AStha in a pool of blood lying down. She is shocked. She screams for Bhayi. She is so loud in screaming that Simran wakes up. All go down. Simran, SAurabh, Shaguna go there. Simran lifts AStha. She starts to cry heavily, asks her father to call the ambulance. He runs in. Simran hugs AStha and cries bitterly.
Next is the hospital scene where AStha is being treated. AStha is still unconscious. All are there standing out. SAurabh, Urmila, Shaguna, Shankar, Abhi's parents. Simran is in the room with AStha. She is sitting near her , looking at her, crying. Abhi's parents along with Saurabh come in. Astha is still unconscious. Simran keeps looking at AStha. Sid comes from the doctor's room. He hurriedly goes into AStha's room. He tells something in Simran's ears. Simran at once, gets up, goes to meet the doctor. Sid also follows. In the doctor's cabin, thedoctor shows Simran the xray reports and says that everything is fine. There are no internal injuries. But we will have to keep her under observation for one more day, he says. Simran is very relieved.
Sia is sleeping, when she gets the same dream of a kid in balance on one side, money on the other, money getting more heavier than the kid. She gets up. She then tells herself again the same dream. This will kill me, she says. I have to somehow go to Anand. But how can I go? She asks herself in distress. She gets up. In Archana's room, both Archana and Nani are talking. Archana has Sia's ticket in hand. She tells her mom that thank god, she took the tickets from the travel agant who came to deliver. Sia does not know about this. Nani says just don't tell her, go and cancel it. Nani says see, my plan worked. You were unnecessarily worrying to pretend. If we had not set up the whole drama of you taking pill,s then Sia would have left us and gone to India. Nani says i knew she loves you so much , will not go against you. So i planned this. Archana says i am guilty, if Sia gets to know this, she will never forgive me. AS they are talking, Sia enters. She screams i will never forgive you all. You cannot be so selfish , can you? she asks. Both nani and Archana try to console and convince her. Sia says i had no grudges against you bcos you did not want me to go to India. I always thought you love me, so do not want me to go. But now i cannot trust you, she says and grabs the ticket from Archana's hand and says now whatever happens, I am going to India, she says and goes away from the room.
AStha regains consciousness. All are there. Simran is sitting near her. Simran looks at
AStha. AStha is in pain, she slowly opens her eyes, sees Simran. Simran asks her how are you feeling, baccha? Simran touches her. AStha then pushes her hand away from her body. Simran gets hurt. She starts to cry. AStha then says in a very low tone, i want to talk only to dada and dadi. Simran hearing this, cannot control her tears, runs out of the room. Urmila, Shaguna, SAurabh all go out, leaving dada and dadi with AStha. They both go near her. AStha tries to ask them the truth. Abhi's mother says you are very weak. WE can talk about that later. Sleep. AStha then dozes off.
Simran is in her cabin, she is crying ,her nose all pink in colour. Urmila and Sid come ther. Urmila tries to console her .Simran keeps on crying. She says my daughter does not want to see my face, does not want to speak to me. Am i getting the stick bcos i told the truth or bcos i hid it? Why am i always forced to such situations, she cries.
AStha is asking her grand parents to tell the truth. They say that Neha is her mother. AStha asks if my mom had died, my father was away, why could not you keep me with you? Why did you give me to that lady? Abhi's father says not like that, we gave you to Simran just bcos your mother wanted us to do that. Simran accepted you with all love and affection and not under any force from us, he says. He says she was the one who stood by you, in tears, laughter everything. So please talk to her, do not give her more sufferings, he says. AStha says but she is not my mother. Abhi's father gets angry, screams at her and says if you do not want Simran who has done so much for you, then you do not need us too as we have not done anything for you. Abhi's mother asks him to cool down ,she says we can tell her later. AStha is very upset.
Sia is leaving for India. Both Nani and Archana plead to her not to go. Nani says please do not get angry at Archana. Get angry at me, bcos i was at fault, not her. She loves you alot, do not leave her and go, says nani. Sia then says please allow me to go. I know what you both are for me. You have given me your so many years. She goes to her mom and says if you cannot live without me, same for me too. I have known to live from you. How can i live without you? You are my mother. What if you are not my real mother? RElationships are not so very slender, cannot be broken that easily. But you have to understand my problem .I want to know for once who my mother is. I want to see her once, i want to know my roots. I want to know why she had to sell me to you. Let me get all these details, i wil come back for sure, she says . She then hugs her mom, says let her go, and leaves. Both Nani and Archana are very sad, cry on each other's shoulders.
Its night time. Simran, Saurabh, Urmila and Shaguna are at home. Simran is lying on
Saurabh's shoulder. He is consoling her. She continues to cry. Urmilaoffers Simran water.
Urmilasays this had to happen. Simran says but it should not have happened in this manner. Simran says yes, i was weak, did not tell her the truth. It was always fear that stopped me from telling AStha the truth. bUt , now i feel i should have told her the truth long back, I could have avoided this kind of reaction from her, she says. Urmila tells her do not think about what happened and what did not happen. Face thefacts. Stop blaming yourself, she says. SAurabh says RAshmi and Pranay are also not here, they are in Shillong, went there for Pranay's meeting, Rashmi also accompanied him. If they were here, they would have been of great help. Simran gets a call from the hospital doctor. He tells her that AStha is ok, has weakness. THe last bottle of saline is being given. So they can take her home next morning. Simranis happy. All are happy. Simran ask Shaguna to pack her bag and tiffin. She also tells to pack AStha's clothes. Shaguna says she has already done that. Simran says she will spend the night in the spare room. Saurabh says but aStha does not want you there. Simran says she cannot stay at home when her daughter is in hospital. So will be there.
Dada and Dadi are in AStha's room. AStha has slept. They are relieved that AStha slept. They say to each other that AStha had been questioning them, crying the whole day. Let her sleep. But as they are speaking, AStha gets up. They do not notice this and go on talking. Abhi's mother says she does not want to go back to Simran. Abhi's father says i knew this would happen. He then says its ok, time is the healer. Let her be with us for few days. What if AStha does not go to Simran's place, if she is with us, Simran can keep coming to uor place, thus they both can meet each other. I am sure everything will be ok. Simran has devoted18 years for AStha. I am sure she will understand, he says. AStha hears this and is upset.
Abhi's mother is dozing off, when a nurse comes there and wakes her. She tells her that AStha is not in bed. Abhi's mother gets worried. She goes out , searches for AStha. Shankar who is the security quickly searches for her in all places, but AStha is nowhere. Abhis' mother then tells all to inform Simran. She then runs to Simran's room (she is sleeping in a room in the hospital) and tells her that AStha is ogne. She slept a bit, does not know when AStha got out of the hospital. Simran is very tensed, she starts to cry in despair.

Sia in Mumbai, Astha at Radha's place, behaves very rudely when Simran comes there!!!
Shankar and all the security guards are there. Simran is scolding all of them for being careless. Shankar assures her that all will search for her. Simran starts to cry. Simran sits there in the lobby with Abhi's mother. She cries a lot. Abhi's mother tries to console her. Simran says AStha is not in a good mental state, i am worried, she can do anything, go anywhere. Simran asks her why she is not understanding me? Why am i blaming her? I am at fault,she says. Again, she cries and asks why is she troubling me so much? why? she asks. She lies on Abhi's mother's lap and cries more. She tries to console her.
AStha comes to Nasik and stands before Radha's house. She is very tired. She keeps her bags down, knockes at the door. She knocks twice, nobody opens, she is tired, so sits there near the door. After few seconds, Poonam comes, opens the door. She sees AStha sitting there. AStha is very happy. Poonam sits near her and asks her what is wrong? AStha picks her bag and asks her can i go inside my house? Poonam says ofcourse. Just then, AStha hears Radha's voice. So she runs in calling nani. Poonam is quite shocked to hear AStha call her nani.
AStha goes in, hugs Radha and calls her nani. Radh ais very happy. AStha asks her they ordered you not to tell the truth ,isn't it? Radha nods her head. AStha says she will stay here, not return. Radha says this is your house, you can stay here. She then shows her Neha's photo to which a garland has been put. Astha goes near it, cries. She touches her photo. Radha tells to Neha's photo, see your daughter has come home. Radha then tells i have been desperate to meet you, to talk to you. I used to talk to your photos, for 18 years i have been longing for you. AStha and Radha hug each other. Poonam comes there with a glass of juice. She asks AStha to drink it. AStha takes it. Both Radha and AStha sit on the bed. AStha asks Radha to tell her about her mother. Radha says she will tell her everything that Simran had not told her.
At Simran's house, all are worried. Simran is crying a lot. Abhi's parents are also restless. Sid has gone to search for AStha. Urmila is also there. Sid comes back and tells all that AStha is not in any of her friend's place. All are upset. SAurabh says we have to inform the police. Simran is very desperate. Just then, There is a call. It is from Radha. Abhi's parents say i knew AStha will go there. Simran answers. Radha talks in a very rude way. She says your AStha is now here. She is fine. Do not worry. She is my daughter. Simran says i want to talk to her. Radha says she is in her mother's room. She is seeing her mother's album. Simran cries more. Radha says her eyes do not move away from seeing her mother's photos. She wants to know everything about her mother. Simran says call her , i want to talk. Radha says when she is free and known everything about her mother, then i will tell her to call you. She says bye. Simran thanks her for informing. Poonam comes there. She asks Radha why you did not allow AStha to talk to Simran? She must be very worried. Radha says Simran is not anxious. She is fearing. Poonam asks what do you mean? Radha changes the topic and asks her to see what her daughter is doing.After Poonam goes, Radha gives a very wicked smile.
Simran is again suffering from a bout of asthma. She is inhaling thro her inhaler. All are there. SAurabh is sitting near Simran. Urmila tells Simran not to be tensed. After all, she has gone to her nani's place. Shaguna says her nani will see to it that she tells all bad to aStha. SAurabh asks her to keep quiet. Urmila then tells Simran you used to tell that whoever we love, we should leave them free. If they also love us, they are bound to come back. If they do not come back, we have to tell ourselves that they were not ours. Simran cries, says i have lost one AStha 18 years back. She went somewhere , never to return. Now, AStha has gone, i hope she comes back. Simran cries a lot. SAurabh cannot see his daughter in this condition. He gets away from there. Sid follows him. Urmila again assures Simran and says everything will be alright, have patience. We have all learnt to weather the storm from you. Simran nods her head.
Sid consoles Saurabh. SAurabh says nothing will get better. I am responsible for my daughter's grief. I was foolish, told everything to AStha. Before, i was the one who used to tell Simran to tell AStha the thruth. Simran would always say AStha is not mature. Now, i understand, AStha showed her immaturity. He cries a lot. Sid tries to console him.
AStha is in Neha's room. She is seeing her mother's albums, crying. She asks the photo why mama, why did you leave me and go? I need you. I miss you the most. Radha sees her crying. She comes near her, calls her Gudiya. She says i am with you, why cry? Stop crying. She has food in her hand. She asks AStha to eat it. She says AStha has become very weak and pale. AStha says i want to know about my mother. Radha says you eat, i will tell you everything.
Sia has reached India. She is going in a car. She tries to reach Sid's mobile, but it is not reachable. So she calls his home. Urmila picks up. Urmila is very pleased to know that Sia is in Mumbai. Sia says she is in transit now, going to Goa. She just got down from the international airport, is moving to the domestic one, her flight to Goa is in one hour. Urmila asks her why she could not stay here for one night? Sia says she has some urgent work, she asks her to inform Sid as he is not at home. Urmila says she will inform him. Sia enquires about AStha and Simran. Urmila in a very hesitant way, says they are fine. Sia says when she comes back, she will surely meet them.
AStha is lying on Radha's lap. Radha is telling her about Simran. Radha says Simran she is a Woman of Substance. She is a multi-faceted personality. I also got impressed by her in the beginning. I wrote a book on her. The story of Dr. Simran. But when my daughter died, i ended up burning the book i wrote. She tels AStha whatever i told you today about Simnran, is the truth. Poonam comes there. She tries to stop them and says they both need to sleep now. AStha gets up, when there is a door bell. Poonam opens the door. It is Simran and Sid. Poonam calls them in. She tells them to sit down , says she will call aStha.
Poonam goes in, tells ASthas. Astha is very angry, says she does not want to meet her. Simran is desperate to meet AStha. Poonam scolds AStha she has come to see you, she must be worried, see her condition. Radha scolds Poonam, see my kid's condition, she will not meet her. I will go and tell her. Radha goes out, tells Simran that AStha who did not talk to her over the phone will never meet her eye to eye. Simran begs her,tells her i want to see aStha once. Sid is very upset to see Simran like that. Inside, AStha screams loudly, i do not want to see her, she is not my mother. Simran hears it. She cries. Radha gives her a very wicked look. Sid cannot control, he goes into Astha's room. There, AStha is screaming at Poonam that i have told you 1000 times , i do not want to see her. Why has she come to see me? Sid pulls her, screams at her. Why do you say this? She is your mother. Why idd u not ask till date why has she come to meet you? You did not ask till now why she loves you? Today you are asking this. Simran, Radha also come in. AStha then replies till this day, she loved me bcos i should not know that truth. I should not get to know about my real mother. I should not know that she is responsible for my mother's death. AStha then screams at Simran you took my mother away from me. I hate you, she screams and turns aside. Simran is crying ,cannot believe her ears. Poonam, Sid are very upset. Radha gives a wicked smile seeing Simran, giving her an expression as though her mission is accomplished.

Radha brainwashing Astha, Abhi ignoring Simran, Sid gets to know about her parentage!!
Sid is screaming at AStha what are you talking? You are telling this to the lady who gave you love and affection for so many years. AStha screams back saying i hate her. I am ashamed that i called her my mama. Now i know that she was responsible for my mama's death. Poonam then tells Astha that if she was responsible for your mother's death, then why would your mother before her death ask Simran to take care of you? Radha does not allow Poonam to talk further. She starts crying and says then why did you all hide this truth from my daughter? Sid says we thought that it would affect AStha, so we did not tell. Simran is very unhappy with all this argument. She starts to cry. She then comes forward and asks Sid to stop arguing. She then goes near AStha and tells Sid that he should remember that AStha is not well. She should not stress out now, she says. She then emotionally tells AStha that i only did a wrong thing in hiding the truth from you. Apart from this, the blames put on me are not true. You should think about this in a calm mood. If you have any questions, i am ready to answer them. I know you will un derstand me. She then wishes God bless you to aStha and leaves. Radha follows Simran to the hall and taunts her, you said you will take back AStha, Where is she? She tells when Gudiya was very small, i brought her to Nasik with me. But you all took away my kid from me. From that day to this day, i have been longing for her. I had a hope that one day she will be back here. Simran then says i too have the same hope that my daughter will come back to me. But, let me tell you, i will not have any grudges against you just bcos AStha is with you. I am sure that the 18 long years of penance i have done to bring her up will definitely not go to waste. She is not my blood, i agree , but she is my life. She has my breath within her. I will wait for tha day when my daughter will understand thismother who brought her up. Simran gives some medicines to Poonam asks her to take care of aStha and leaves. Sid also follows. Radha gives a very wicked smile. Poonam is unhapppy.
Sia is in Goa, checks into the hotel. Immdeiately she calls the publisher. She asks for Anand. The publisher does not recognise this to be Sia. He wonders who is this next girl asking for Anand? Then, Sia tells about herself, the publisher says just bcos of you, Anand never returned. He is gone somewhere just bcos you troubled him. He has not completed the book too. It has 2 chapters remaining. I do not know where he is. Sia is worried.
The publisher immediately calls Bhavani who is in his car travelling to Mumbai. The publisher tells him that the girl Sia from Londaon is back, wants to meet Anand. She will definitely try to meet him. I was worried bcos Anand might again get troubled by her and leave Goa forever. Bhavani says he will somehow convey this message to Anand. Bhavani then calls Abhi. Abhi is writing, when he gets the call. Abhi asks Bhavani have you reached Mumbai? Bhavani asks him not to get so desperate to know about his people. He tells Abhi that he had to go to Nagpur, so will reach Mumbai only in the evening. He then tells Abhi about Sia trying to search for him. Abhi says where can i go and hide everytime? Abhi then says anyway, i will try to avoid her. He then runs out of the house, locks the house in a hurry, goes from there.
After Anand has left, Sia comes there. She sees the lock on the door. She then thinks to herself, he has not yet come. Where will he be? She then keeps an envelope with letter near the big lock, leaves the place.
Its night time. Saurabh and Shaguna are anxiously waiting for Simran to return from Nasik.
They feel Astha might come back. Simran comes in alone. Saurabh searches for AStha,then asks her. Simran tries to control her tears and says she is with her nani. She is fine now, but weak. So she was not in a condition to travel from Nasik to Mumbai. She will come in a few days time, she says. She asks her father why he is awake till long hours? Shaguna says he has not yet had his food, was telling he will have it with Astha baby. Simran again controls her emotions, tells Shaguna to arrange dinner. They will have. SAurabh then asks Simran when will AStha come?
Simran very emotionally says give her time. She will come back. Everything will be alright. She runs in, trying to hide her tears. Saurabh is upset.
Abhi is reading the letter left by Sia. She has written the relationship i had with you pulled me here to Goa. You are the only person who can understand me. I am in a great crisis. I do not know what i have to do. You have to help me in this situation. I have full faith that you can be my guiding light. Abhi feels sorry for her after reading it. Sia is going back to Mumbai. Suddenly, she realises that she has not written her contact number in the letter.
Abhi after reading the letter, searches for details. He then tells to himself this girl did not write her addrerss or telephone number. How should i contact her? Then, he tells to himself, that this is better as he wants to stay away from all this.
Sid and Urmila are talking in their house. Sid tells Urmila that he is worried for Simran. She controls her self before her father, but she is in a very shocked state. She does not express her grief before anybody. Just then, there is a door bell. It is Sia. Urmila is very happy and surprised. Sid also is surprised. He says a pleasant surprise. Sia says thank god, it is pleasant. I thought you will be angry with me. Sid remains silent. Urmila offers her dinner, Sia says she has finished. Then Urmila goes aside to make coffee for her. Sia goes near an angry Sid and says sorry. She says i was so confused with my problem that i scolded you over phone. She says sorry. Sid is back to his normal. Sid asks her what her programme is? Sia says she came here to meet all. She enquires about AStha and Simran.
Bhavani is there at Simran's place. He is seeing Astha's photo in which she is posing with a mask. Bhavani says she has grown so big that even if he sees her, he cannot recognise her. He asks them where is she? Shaguna who is there, says she has gone with her friends to see a movie. Bhavani then requests Simran that he would like to take this snap. Simran does not answer, so Bhavani says he does not have any rememberance of his friend, Abhi. So he likes to take her photo. Simran agrees.
AStha is crying. Radha is there with her. AStha says i did not know that mama can be so crooked. Radha says Simran has always lied to people. She is always in a habit of creating a drama. She behaves like a perfect idealistic woman, perfect mother and perfect doctor before everybody. But she is full of manipulation. AStha cries more. She tells her that she will never see Simran's face. She says she will not even see her shadow now. Radha is pleased. Poonam comes there and asks AStha to bathe. AStha goes away. Poonam tells Radha that it is time that AStha goes back to Simran. Radha gets wild. She tells Poonam that AStha will not go back to her, she will see to it that Astha never goes back, Poonam stares at Radha. Radha asks her why she is looking like that? Poonam says she is feeling very sorry that she served her for so many years. She asks her where you alive only to do this to Simran? Radha says you do not see me crying, do not realise what your friend had to bear. Poonam just goes away.
Simran is lying in the sofa when Sia comes there. Simran is surprsied to see her. Sia sits near her.Sia says sorry to her and tells her that she was advising her as a mother and was concerned about her . But she did not realise that. She says sorry. Simran says she has already forgotten that. Sia says she has not forgotten. She says she should consider her and AStha same. The rights she has on Astha, she has on her too. Simran cries and says she has no rgihts. She is not a mother. Sia is shocked to hear this. Asks her what happened? Simran says AStha left me, bcos i hid a truth from her that i am not her mother. She came to know of it and went away. She is not talking to me, not seeing me. I lived for her, now she hates me. Simran cries very bitterly, says sorry to Sia. She says you have to excuse me, i should not be discussing this with you, she says and goes in. Sia is shocked.
Sia then comes to Sid who is in the hospital. Sia is panting for breath. Sid asks her what is wrong. Sia tells him that AStha is not Simran's daughter. Simran told her. Sia says AStha might be going thro tough times. I understand that. She saw Simran as her mother for 18 long years, now suddenly to know the truth, is very hard to digest. I can understand that as i am also going thro the same phase. My mother is not my real mother. She bought me for money. I came to know of this just now after 20 long years, she says and cries. Sid remains shocked.

Sia advises Simran, Bhavani meets Poonam, gets to know about Astha, Radha gets to know that Simran has been helping her!!!
Sia continues to say that for me and AStha, our AStitva is wronged. Sid is shocked. Sia asks Sid is AStha angry at Simran? Sia then tells him that she gets nightmares when she sleeps. She can see a kid crying on a balance , being sold ,being bought. After knowing the truth, i feel like i am pushed into a dark big cave, i am trying to come out, keep falling again and again, feel i will get my ground only when i find my mother. I am very desperate to find her, to know her, she says. Sid asks her whether she told this to Simran. Sia says she did not as she was shocked to hear this from Simran. She could not tell her as Simran was upset. Why should i tell her my sorrow, she says. So i came to you, i thought you will understand, she says. Sia says i trust you. I thought i can share my personal matters with you. You are responsible, guarded my Simran's secret. You knew the truth about AStha but you protected Simran's privacy. I admire you, she says. She also says that i hope you will guard my story too. She asks Sid is AStha angry with you? Sid says she is, but if she was here, i could have told her the truth, scolded her for treating Simran bad. Sid says how can she say that Simran is not her mother. She cared for her for 18 years, now she is nobody, he screams. Sid then says i do not know your mother, but i know Simran aunty. She is so good a mother, i have seen that. So feel sorry for her, he says. He also says that I can say one thing. AStha behaved very rudely with her in Nasik. Sia is upset.
Astha and Radha are lying in bed. Radha is fast asleep. AStha is lying and thinking. She thinks of her past, when she was a small kid, Simran running with her, palying hide and seek. Then Simran tying her shoe laces, hugging the little girl, kissing her, cajoling her. Simran hugging the littel girl and sleeping. She is upset. She is in a dilemma. She is pensive.
Its night time. Sia is very upset. She is in her hotel room. She is writing some thing. She remembers Simran telling her about AStha. She then thinks of Sid telling her that AStha was rude to Simran. She cries,scratches whatever she has written. She tears it, throws the paper to the ground. On the ground, there are many pieces of paper that Sia has crumpled and put. She then thinks why am i feeling sorry for Simran? I feel AStha did the wrong thing in hurting Simran. But i too have done the same thing to my mother. She then calls her mom. Archana is sitting in the sofa, crying .She is very excited to know that it is Sia. She asks her whether she is fine. Sia asks sorry and tells her that she was very angry, so scolded her and came. Archana says it is ok. Sia then says i called to tell you that i love you mama. I miss you a lot. Archana is happy and says i miss you a lot. I feel miserable without you. She asks Sia to get back. Sia says she has not yet started to search for her mother. Archana asks where will you search her? India is such a big country. Sia says she needs some time. Archana says how much? Sia tells her mom to decide. Archana says 1-2 months. Sia says done, i will be back in 2 months, even if i am unsuccessful. I will leave my search and come back after 2 months. This is Sia's promise, she says and also adds that you know, i never break promises. Archana says yes and happily says bye.
Simran is trying to call AStha's mobile. There, Astha is sitting seeing Neha's album. Poonam comes there with juice. Just then, Simran's call comes. AStha sees that it is Simran and cuts. Poonam asks AStha to take her juice. AStha takes it. Then a call comes in the landline. Poonam receives it. It is Simran. Poonam says she will call aStha. But Astha screams at the top of her voice that she does not want to speak. Simran is upset, cuts the phone. Just then, Sia comes there. She says sorry to disturb you. Simran is having her and AStha's photo. Sia sees it, tells her that give AStha some time. Let her understand who you are. Simran says i am trying. Sia advises her not to think about it, as she will feel suffocated. She tells her to start going to the hospital. Sia says whenever she is upset, she tries to control her feelings by seeing a movie, spending time with friends. Simran takes her hand and says you talk so well at this tender age. Sia says it is easy to solve other's problems, but not ours. Sia cries. Simran gives her a consoling smile.
SAurabh is crying , Abhi's parents are there. He tells them that Simran is shattered, she does not show it to us, but cries a lot. She is alone. I cannot see her like this. SAurabh cries a lot. Abhi's father consoles him, but Saurabh cannot control . Abhi's father says if you breakdown, what will happen to Simran? You are her support now, SAurabh agrees but says i cannot take it more. I had to express my feelings t someone. Abhis' father says we are honoured that you told us. We were also very worried. We will do something immediately.
Simran is in hospital talking over the phone. Urmila enters her cabin , si shocked to see Simran. She asks her to go home, rest. She says we are here to manage. Simran says i know you will manage. But i cannot live without this hospital. Simran says if i am at home, i keep thinking about the same problems, i will go mad. So better i come here. Urmila is happy. Simran says she was advised to do this by Sia. Urmila says she made a good decision and says now everything will be alright. Simran smiles.
Poonam gets a call from Bhavani. She recognises him, enquires about him. Radha and AStha are sitting at a distance. Poonam without their knowledge asks Bhavani whether she can meet him in his office. Bhavani asks her to come. Poonam is glad.
Sia is showing the write-up for the AD. She has written that a kid 2 years old was sold in London for money. This was some 20 years back. The girl, now grown up, is in India , searching for her mother. Id anyone identifies the girl, please contact. Sid tells Sia to add that i hope the mother will understand what the daughter is going thro, so will try to meet her. Sia says you add it, i will give it for publishing. Sid asks her whether she has the photos to which Sia says yes.
Bhavani gets call from Abhi. He is surprised and asks him so you know to call. Abhi then asks how are all at home in Mumbai? Bhavani says so you called for this. When they are talknig, Poonam comes there. Bhavani in signs , asks her to come and sit. He tells Abhi that Poonam is here. Do you want to talk? Abhi is shocked, scolds him that if Poonam is here, why is he talking? He requests him not to tell her anything , keeps the phone. Poonam then tells him that things are not that good. Bhavani tells her that he met Simran yesterday. So Poonam says you know everything. Bhavani is blinking. Poonam says AStha is here with her nani, you know that. Bhavani asks with shock, what AStha left Simran? Poonam then gets to know that Simran has not told anything. She then tells him that AStha got to know the fact that Simran is not her mother, Neha is her mother, so she left home, now is with Radha. Radha is now bent upon taking revenge with Simran for Neha's death. Bhavani is shocked, does not know what to do.
Radha is screaming at Abhi's parents who have comes to Nasik to meet AStha. They say she is our grand daughter. Radha says no, i have longed for her for so many years. She is with me now, you cannot mmet her. Abhi's mother says Simranis worried. You do not understand a mother's heart, she asks. Radha says Neha is her mother. Simran is a liar. She puts on her face a mask of honesty. But she is selfish, she says. Abhi's father gets wild, screams at her and asks her do you have senses? For the past 18 years, Simran took care of you. Radha says how come she took care of me, she burnt me alive, i cannot stand even her shadow, she says. Abhi's father cannot control , says she has been your shadow. She has given you life. She has not only given AStha life, but you also. She was the one who took care of you for 18 years. Do you know that she has been managing all your expenses, house expenses, medicines, even your servant bills, he says. Abhi's mother asks him to keep quiet. She tells him we have promised to Simran not to tell the truth. Abhi's father says i cannot tolerate this lady any longer, i am telling. He continues to say that when Radh aused to get admitted in hospital frequently, Simran used to come to Nasik , be with her in the room, take care of her. She has never told you these facts. What is the relationship between you and her? She took so much care of you, You do not understand who she is. You keep blaming her for everything. Radh ais shocked, has tears rolling. Astha is standing at a distance , has heard this talk.

Abhi sees Astha's photo, gets to know Simran's sorrow, Sia and Sid meet Astha, convince her to come to Mumbai!!!
When all are talking and Radha is shocked, Poonam comes there. Radha asks her to tell the truth. Poonam is hesitant. Abhi's parents ask her to tell the truth, they say the time has come, now speak out. Poonam then tells Radha that this is the truth. But, Simran had taken a promise from her , so she had been silent. I was thinking in the past few days to tell the truth or not. But never got an opportunity. I am a nurse. With my salary, how can you get so much of luxury, such good lifestyle. You ask for anything, you have it. When you were admitted in the hospital, Simran gave money. She actually sends a checque at the beginning of every month. I keep it exclusively for you, Poonam says. Radha is first shocked. Abhi's parents says you are alive bcos of her. Radha then sees AStha there and changes her opinion.
She tells Poonam that you have hid everything from me, kept me unnoticed. She then goes near AStha , says this is a good trap. She first killed my daughter, then to put off her guilt, gave me money every month. If only i knew she gave me all these things, i would not have touched them. She goes near aStha and says see, she is so manipulative. She has bought you with mpney, so you go to her, Radha says. AStha screams at all saying i will not go there. I will stay with my nani. Radha is happy. Abhi's parents are sad. Radha tells them, go to Simran as you are buried in her help to you. Go this is enough she screams.
Simran is opeining AStha's wardrobe, touching her clothes, kissing them, crying. She remembers the day when AStha cries to Simran not to tell again that she is not her daughter. She then thinks to herself, your studies are getting affected due to this. The season change always upsets your health, so take care of your health. Simran then remembers AStha down with fever and headache, Shaguna trying to feed her, But AStha is waiting for Simran to feed her. Simran comes there, AStha says when AStha is not well, how can in not expect her mom to be near her? She hugs Simran. Simran says why get attached to me like this? If something happens to me, what will you do? AStha hugs Simran and says she will never allow her to go away from her. Simran remembers everything sitting on AStha's bed. Shaguna comes there. She says Abhi's parents have come.
Simran comes to the hall where Abhis' parents are there. She asks why they have come so late, she would have come home. They say they are coming from Nasik. Simran is surprised, asks them why they went there. They say they wanted to tell AStha the truth. THey wanted to bring her from there as if she is with Radha, things will only worsen. Simran says we need to give some time to AStha. They tell AStha is being brainwashed by Radha. Simran says if 2 days of taking is going to wash out 18 long years of love, then something is wrong at my end, i did not give AStha the love she needed. So she is feeling insecure. They say AStha is childish, does not understand things. Simran says a girl not related like Sia cares for me, but my own daughter does not, she cries.
Its night time. Sia is reading the book Determination By Anand. AS she is reading it, she gets a thought. She puts the book down and says to herself, Anandji, if you were here, met me atleast once, i would have told you my giref as well as Simran aunty's grief. She then tells her self that she has to do something. She cannot see Simran getting hurt and leading a miserable life. She calls Sid. She tells him that i dont know when i will find my mother. But Astha and Simran need to patch up. Sid says Astha is not understanding, what can we do? Sia says i understand her position, i want to talk to her atleast once. So can you give her Nasik address? Sid says i will also come with you, we can go tomorrow. Sia says yes.
AStha is seeing Abhi and Neha's marriage photo. She tells her father, papa where are you? You left us when we needed you. You are an escapist, she rudely says that.
Bhavani is with Abhi. Abhi is seeing Astha's photo. Abhi starts to cry with excitement. He has no words coming out of his mouth. He asks Bhavani she has grown so big. What is she doing? Must be studying, isn't it? Bhavani says she is trying to become a doctor. Abhi laughs and says ofcourse, its good that she becomes like her mother. (Must tell you very good acting by Varun here). Bhavani then says AStha knows that Simran is not her mother. Abhi nods his head and says this is infact good. It would have lead to further complications. Good that Simran told her the fact. Bhavani says there is nothing like that. Astha is angry with Simran, she hates her. Simran had not told her the truth. Few days back, Astha got to know the truth from some other source. She hate Simran. She has run away to Nasik, is with Radha. Poonam was telling me that Radha is taking all measures to brainwash Astha's mind. Astha is sure to develop bad thoughts for Simran is she stays more with Radha. Poonam was actuall y telling me that Astha behaved very rudely with Simran when she came to Nasik to take her. Simran is shattered bcos of this, I could not hear Simran's sorrow when Poonam narrated it to me. Bhavani cries. He then screams at Abhi and says this is all bcos of you. You are responsible. How many lives will you spoil, who gave you the right? You are sitting nhere peacefully, trying to repent for the mistakes you made. You write books, write columns, make pots, paint, this is life for you. But all your well wishers are struggling with life there. He screams at him in disgust and goes away. Abhi is shattered, tears coming down his cheek, he does not know what to do, watches AStha's photo.
Sia and Sid go to meet Astha. Astha screams at them, Sid says you do not value friendship too. Sia says i am not that close to you, but i can understand what you are going thro. You have come out of your adopted mother , but you atleast know that she adopted you bcos it was your mother's last wish. But in my case, i was sold and bought, was adopted, i also got to know after 18 years, she says. Sid then says Simran actually took up Simran Saxena as her name, for you. You rfather did not even marry her, she accpeted your responsibility when you were a small kid. Cant you see this? AStha gets very angry and screams at Sia saying shut up. This is between my mother and me, you need not be amessenger. Sia does not stop. Sia asks her so have you stopped loving Simran bcos your mother is someone else. Sid and Sia ask questions at a very quick pace one after another. Sid - So do you love Simran or not? Sia - Just bcos you love your own mother, you hate Simran. Sid - you are selfish. Sia - Simran has brought you up for years, face the truth. Sid - if it is difficult to accept truth, try choosing the right path. Sia- Why are you staying here? you have your grandparents in Mumbai. Sid- You need not go to Simran, but can come to MUmbai. AStha has has enough, she closes her ears, says i will not go back to Simran, but will come to Mumbai to be with her grandparents. She cries. Sid and Sia breathe a sigh of relief. Sia and AStha hug each other. Radha sees this and is shocked.
Night, Abhi calls Bhavani and tells him that he has decided to go to Nasik. But he tells Bhavani not to tell anyone. Bhavani tells Abhi you have made the correct decsion and says we both can go together.
Radha is sleeping in her room when she gets a dream that Simran is pulling AStha forcefully, AStha pleading to remain with nani, Radha trying to stop, but not able to. Simran takes AStha out of the house, leaving Radha shattered and crying. Radha gets up, is perspiring a lot, calls for AStha. She quickly takes a big can of kerosene, goes to the room where Astha and Sia are sleepnig. She pours kerosene all over. She goes to all the rooms, hall, very quickly she pours kerosene, comes to the hall, takes a match box, gives a very maddening smile, lights the matchstick and is about to throw it when the screen freezes.

Radha hysterical, Astha back in Mumbai,goes to her dada's house, Abhi in Nasik, misses
Astha, Sia's Ad in paper!!!
Radha is getting mad, she is just about to throw the match stick when Poonam comes there, blows the stick. Then Radha tries to light another one, Poonam tries to snatch away the match box from there. Radha is getting wild and violent. She screams at her. Poonam tries to take away the match box from her after some tussle. Radha then says you want to take away Astha from me, I will not let that happen. I will take her to my daughter, Neha. Radha then stretches her hand, asks Poonam to see there, she says Neha is standing there, she has come to take me and Astha with her. Poonam says she is not there. Radha gets violent, starts screaming, AStha, your mother is here to take us, come see. Poonam wants to avoid Astha coming. So she tries to stop her from screaming. She tries to pull her away. They have a batlle like, where Radha gets very violent. Poonam has no other choice but to slap Radha. Radha is shocked at this, becomes more violent and uncontrollable. Poonam is trying to save herself as Radha goes to strangle her to death. Poonam knocks Sid's door. He opens. He gets kerosene smell and asks who did it. He sees the whole house in kerosene. Poonam says Radha did it. He asks her where is she. Poonam asks him to come along.
They both go and knock at Astha and Sia's room. They both get up. Poonam gives a letter to Astha, says to her that Radha has gone somewhere. Astha reads the letter. It reads - If Astha is not here in this house, there is no point in me staying here. So i am going. Please do not try to search for me. Astha, wherever you go, wherever you are, my blessings are with you. Astha is sad. She asks Sid to give a police complaint, also says that they should search for her. Poonam tries to tell Astha that she should now go back to Mumbai. Astha does not agree. Sia says you should go back, what will you do here. Maybe Radha will come to Mumbai. Astha is not convinced. Sid also tries to tell her.
Simran is not well, lying in the sofa. She looks very pale. Urmila has come to see her. Simran asks her where is Sid. Urmila tells her that he has gone out with friends. Simran tells Urmila that i know you and your son very well. You do not know to lie. So speak up. Urmila tells her that Sid and Sia are in Nasik. Simran asks whether Astha called them. Urmila says Sia wanted to advise Astha. So they have gone. Simran asks Urmila do you think Astha will come? Simran cries. Simran says we are so very relaxed about our life with kids. We think they will be with us, till our last breath. But this is wrong. Relatioship is like a glass. You never know when it will break as we are seeing it. Urmila assures Simran that Astha is not like that. She is angry , but she loves you. Just wait and see, she will come and hug you calling I love you mama. This brings out tears in Simran's eyes. She says i hope this happens. I hope she forgives me, she says. Shaguna gives Simran a glass of milk.
Astha is ready. Poonam is forcing her to go to Mumbai. She gives Astha her bag, tells her that she is here, if Radha comes here, she will immediately inform Astha. Sid, Astha and Sia leave. Poonam is relaxed. Just when Sid's car goes out, another car comes in. Bhavani and Abhi are in the car. The window is closed, the black paper over it, so cannot be seen from out. Abhi asks Bhavani to get down and enquire. Poonam sees Bhavani coming out , wishes him .Bhavani says he came to Nasik for work, so wanted to meet her. Poonam says if you had come minutes before, you could have seen Astha. Bhavani asks where is she. Abhi is listening thro the window. Poonam says Sid and his friend had come. Astha finallly agreed to go back after they convinced her. Bhavani says he will leave now and says he is with a friend. Poonam tries to look thro the galss but she cannot see anything. Abbih also gives out a sigh of relief.
Abhi and Bhavani are driving back to Goa. Abhi says good that he did not show his face.He likes to remain a recluse. Bhavani is upset with this comment, asks him are you not sad that you did not meet your daughter? Abhi says no. Bhavani asks him then why did you come? Abhi says i did not knpw what is happening out. I always believed no news, all good news. But when i knew the truth, i felt restless. I wanted to talk to Astha. But now that she has realised and gone back, i am happy. After so many years of staying alone, i fear to come to terms with life, he says. I had forgot what relationship and responsibility is .Bhavani says i will not believe you. You do not know what you want from life, that is your problem. Do one thing, when you go home and do yoga, try to read what your atma and conscience tells you. Then tell me...He says.
Sid is driving the car, withAstha in the front. Sia is seated at the back. Nobody is talking. Sid gets a call from Urmila . She asks him where he is. Sid says he is on the way. Urmila asks is Astha with them? Sid says yes. Urmila asks them to come to Simran's place as she is not well. Sid gets panicky and asks what happned to Simran aunty? Astha hears this, sees Sid. Urmila tells Sid that she had a asthma attack, also has high fever. Sid says they are coming. After Sid cuts the phone, Astha asks him what happened to her? Sid tells.
Simranis still lying. Urmila checks her temperature. She says it is not getting less. Saurabh is also worried. He asks Simran not to worry. He tells Simran that Astha will be back with Sid, will come and again turn this house with full of excitement and masti. She will play pranks with me too, he says .Simran cries. Just then, bell rings. Shaguna opens the door. Sia stands before her, Sia moves to the side, Astha is there. Shaguna gets excited, calls Bhayi, looks who has come. Simran sees Astha, gets up in excitement. Tears of joy start to run down her cheeks, she puts her arm open for Astha to hug her, AStha come near her with no reaction at all, Simran touches her, kisses her forehead. Sid asks Simran how she is. Simran cheerful says she is now better. She tells Shaguna to make Astha's favourite dishes to eat. Shaguna asks Astha what to make. Astha with an angry face says i will not eat here. I will eat at dada's place. Simran says whats the problem , we can call them here. She asks papa to phone. Astha says i will not eat with you. I will not stay here. I will stay with them. I came here just bcos you were not well. It does not mean i have forgotten everything. Simran and all are upset. Sia is upset. Sid tries to scold Astha . But Simran stops him,says whatever you want will happen. She then asks Sid to take her to their place. Sid tries to tell her, Simran says please go Sid .They leave. Simran is dejected, sits in the sofa, crying. All are upset.
SAurabh and Simran are sitting. SAurabh says i cannot understand anything. At the end of a big journey, during my last days , why am i seeing all this? Why?He says. He says I am frustrated. Simran tries to console him. She says nothing has gone wrong. She is with her grandparents, very close to us. We can go and meet her whenever we want. She is near us. ThankGod, she is out of Radha's bad clutches . I am happy for that. She is safe, Simran says. SAurabh says you are trying to cheer me up, but this is not the fact. Simran asks him to see her, then asks him do you think i am lying? I am genuinely happy, papa. I owe this to Sia. Just bcos of Sia, astha is back today. Astha realised her msitakes. I ma happy for Sia , she says. Saurabh cries and asks Simran where did you get this brave character from? Simran cannot control her tears. Saurabh gives a feeling of dejection and goes away. Simran cries a lot.
Sid is seeing the paper. He sees Sia's Ad. It reads Maa ki Talaash. But the photo put there of Sia is probably when Sia was six years old. So this is a much more grown up astha , so Sid does not recognise her. Sid calls Sia, tells her that her Ad has come. Sia says she is not in the hotel.She is on her way to meet Simran. She says she will see the ad in her house.
Simran is going thro the paper. She sees the Ad. Simultaneously, in Goa, Abhi is reading the paper. He also sees it. Simran reads it aloud. This ad is in search for a mother. Abhi reads - She gave her 2 years old daughter 18 years back. Simran reads- In London to a lady. She sold the kid for money.
Abhi reads- The girl is now in India Simran- She is looking for her mother. Abhi- If her mother sees this ad, recognises her daughter, then please meet her. Simran- the girl wants to meet her mother only once. Abhi- The girl does not expect anything else from her mother. Simran- The girl hopes that her mother will understand her and meet her soon.
They then show Abhi and Simran in one screen, by putting a line in between. They show both their reactions on reading it at the same time.

Simran gets to know about Sia's parentage, Radha in mental asylum,Astha's birthday!!!
Simran is crying after reading the AD. Sia comes there, sees Simran crying. She asks her what is the matter? Are you thinking about Astha? Simran says that is always there, but now after reading this ad, i am thinking of a similar incident that happened to me 18 years back. Sia is shocked, asks details. Simran says 18 years back, when she was in London, her 2 year old daughter was kidnapped. Sia is shocked more. Simran cries. Simran says we searched a lot for her, the London Police tried their best, but my daughter never came back as she was dead. Sia cries, hearing this. Simran says the girl in the ad is so sweet. Sia then who is crying, says that girl is me. Simran is shocked , does not have words. Sia continues to say that her mama sold her for money.Simran then asks her have you come to India in search of your motheR? Sia gets up, nods, screams that her mother sold her for money, she must have been richer by some crores that day. She wants to meet her only once to know what her reson for selling me was. Simran tries to console her, Sia starts to cry aloud. Simran says a mother cannot sell her daughter for money under any normal circumstances, your mother might have had some very strong reason. Sia says yes, i want to know that that reason is. She cries a lot. She says i hope my mother has the guts to face me, and will meet me. I hope i meet her, she cries. Simran hugs her, gives her some motherly touch, hugs her, tries to pat her on the back, tries to control her, tells her you will definitely meet your mother, have faith. They both hug each other, Sia crying over her mother unknowingly, Simran without knowing that she is her daughter, trying ot console her like her own daughter. A very emotional scene....
Abhi is reading the ad, is lost in his own world, when Bhavani comes there and asks him what is the matter? Abhi says i was seeing this Ad. This is a very strange coincidence that when me and Simran lost our Astha on the streets of London, a lady in London was selling her own daughter for money. He gets very emotional. Bhavani consoles him, says there are different types of people, you cannot get emotional for all. Abhi then says what will i get being emotional? But one thing is for sure, if this girl happens to be our Astha, me and Simran would sell ourselves for our daughter. But this is not our daughter, Astha, he says. Bhavani consoles him.
Abhi's parents are at their breakfast table. They are talking about Radha. She does not have anybody else to go to. Where will shr be, they are talking. Just then, Astha comes there. So they stop talking about Radha. Abhi's mother asks Astha to have her breakfast. But she says no, and starts to leave with her college bag in hand. She asks her where you are going. Astha says life has to go on, she has to be brave , so she is going to her college. Abhi's mother tries to advise her to take reast, when Abhi's father stops her and asks Astha to go to college. Astha says she will have her breakfast at college and leaves.
After Astha leaves, Abhi's father calls Poonam. He enquires whether there is any news about Radha. He says all are worried. Poonam very hesitantly tells him to ask Dr. Sid about Radha. He will tell you everything. Abhi's parents are surprised.
Astha is in her college. Her friends come to her and ask her about some notes. Astha screams at them that this class has not been taken, from where can i give notes? Her friends say just bcos she is Dr. Simran's daughter, she might have the notes from her mother in advance. Astha does not like Simran being referred, scolds them and leaves. Her friends do not understand what's wrong with her.
Saurabh, Simran, Shaguna, Abhi's parents and Sid are having a talk at Simran's place. Sid tells them that Radha got mad. Simran is angry at Sid for using such words for Radha. She says i know that Radha is very hyper at times, overreacts, gets emotional. But you cannot call them mad. How can you? Sid says but you all know that she had symptoms even when she was young. That is the reason she behaved badly with you, he says toSimran. Simran does not agree. Sid then says when he and Sia had gone to Nasik to talk to Astha, Astha agreed to come back to Mumbai. When Radha heard this, she lost control, lost evern the last thread of sense that she had in her, she poured kerosene in the entire house, was about to light the house into fire, when Poonam caught her. Poonam then woke me up from sleep, took me to the room where she had tied up Radha. AS Sid says this, flashbacks are shown. Sid tries to call the doctor, when Poonam says the doctor has already instructed her that if she loses her senses, they have to admit her in the asylum , then call him. So Poonam says better we admit her in the mental asylum soon, otherwise Astha's life is in danger. So Poonam and Sid without anybody's knowledge, take Radha(her hands anf mouth are tied) in a car, admit her in the asylum. They return, clean up the whole house which is in kerosene, then next morning, they wake the girls and show them the letter. Sid says they even amde up a drama of searching Radha for Astha. Then they got Astha back to Mumbai. Sid then says sorry to all for hiding this fact for so long. All are shocked. Simran cannot believe what she heard. Shaguna says i always knew that lady was mad. Abhi's parents say how can she burn her own grand daughter alive? SAurabh is also upset. Simran at once picks the phone, calls Poonam. She tells Poonam that Sid told them everything. She says she is very thankful for her and Sid. They showed great presence of mind. Simran says i cannot have words to thank you to Poonam. Poonam cries, says sorry for behaving bad with you when you were in Nasik. I could not help it bcos i wanted to take care of Astha. Simran says come here, work in my hospital in mumbai. Poonam says i have to be here, to look after Radha. I cannot come. Simran says you took care of a hysterical , mentally disturbed lady so nicely. Even a daughter cannot od what you are doing. She then says call me if you need anything. Poonam agrees. Abhi's parents also say that nobody in this world does so much for others. Simran then keeps the phone, tells her father that she has to deposit money in Poonam's account very soon. All agree. Simran then says there is one problem. Who is going to tell Astha this? SAurabh says we need not tell her. Abhi's parents too have the same idea. Simran says i am paying the price for hiding a fact for 18 years, now you want me to hide a new fact. She tells them that they should think if the consequences once Astha gets to know this. All are worried, Simran cries.
Rashmi and Pranay arrive at Simran's place. Rashmi calls out loudly for Astha and says where is the birthday girl? Simran is shocked, says for the first time in her life, she forgot about Astha's birthday. Shaguna is there. Pranay sees Simran worried, asks her. Simran tells Pranay and Rashmi that Astha got to know the truth. She hates her now. She is with her grandparents, does not want to see her. Both are shocked. Pranay says her reaction is natural. She is kid. She cannot see our perspective, you should give her time. Simran says she also hopes so.
Astha is in her room, lying in the bed. She appears sad. She gets call. It is Sid. He wishes her Happy Birthday. She asks him now you remembered? I was waiting for your call from night. Sid says sorry and says he came hoem late last night, slept too much, got up now. He says sorry i must be the last to wish you. Astha says no, you are the first. She says i don't care, but. Sid is shocked that Simran has not wished her. He tells her he will talk to her later. He then calls Simran's place. Shaguna picks up. He tells her to convey the message to Simran that today is Astha's birthday. Shaguna says all have gone there except her and SAurabh. Sid is happy, says i will also go there.
Astha opens the door as bell rings. All have come. First, Rashmi and Pranay enter. Then Sia. Then Sid enters. Rashmi hugs Astha, kisses her. All have gifts in their hand. Sid opens his arms for Astha to hug him. Astha comes near him to hug, but when she comes near, he moves allowing Simran from behind to hug her. Astha suddenly loses all expression in her face. All ofer gifts. She says she will not take them.Sid goes near her, touches her, makes a joke that Astha is having fever, so very hot, so refusing gifts. All laugh. They try their best to change her mood. But she screams at them saying she will not take gifts. Rashmi says so you will not cut the acke jokingly. Astha say yes. She says this day is very inauspicious , so cannot be celebrated. Simran is shocked, so are others. Simran says this day is very auspicious for us, baccha. Astha says yes, i ti s auspicious for you, bcos this day you got a kid in your arms. But for me, this day is very bad as i lost my mother this day. This day my father left me. This day i had to move from my own house, enter a stranger's house. This day, i left my grandparents and nani. This day is the most inauspicious day in my life, she screams. Simran is very much hurt, she starts to cry.

Astha celebrates birthday, Sia gets enquiries for her ad, Sia catches an avoiding Anand!!
Simran cries at what Astha said. Astha tries to go into the room, Rashmi stops her says what you are doing is wrong. She is your mother, gave love to you as own child. Don't do this to her, she says. Astha says you are related to her, so speak for her. Nobody among you are related to my mother, Neha. So for you, Simran is greater. I cannot see this injustice done to my mother, she says and goes into her room. Simran pants for breath, sits holding her chest. Sia asks her about her inhaler. Simran says she forgot it. All ask her to calm down. Simran drinks water. Pranay tells Simran that Astha feels she has been fooled by all. She is angry. o you need to stay cool. Wait for her to get composed.
Astha is crying in her room. Abhi's parents come there, tell her that she is not doing right. Simran is worried abouther. She is hurting Simran very much. Astha says i am not coming out, not talking to anyone. You kept telling me all lies. How can i beleive you all? Abhi's mother says she is your mother. Astha says she is not my mother. Abhi's mtother says you do not know her worries, her sorrow. Sia and Sid also come there. Sia tells her that i understand what you are going thro. I am also in the same situation. I too got to know after so many years that my mama is not my real mother. Abhi's parents are shocked to hear this. Sia then says atleast you are in a better situation. You know that your mother handed you to Simran just bcos she could not take care of you. She knew that Simran would take care of you well. Your mother must have taught so much about you, your future. So when she gave you to Simran, she had a faith in Simran. Don't you think so? When a mother gives birth to a kid, it is like getting another birth for her. She goes thro lots of risk in pregnancy and delivery. Why does a mother undergo all this? Just to give her kid a good future and to see thaqt she is happy all her life. Think about this. Simran made your mother's hopes and thought true by taking care of you. Do you think your mother will be happy seeing your reaction? Do you think her atma will be happy now? Think, she says, asks Astha to come out.
Simran and all are happy to see Astha coming out with Sia. Astha comes near the table where the cake is kept. On the table, Neha and Radha's photos are kept.
Abhi is lighting the candle, has a cake. He has Neha's garlanded photo, then Astha's photos framed next to it. He thentakes Astha's photo in his hand, wishes her Happy Birthday.
Astha cuts the cake. Simran is happy. All sing Birthday wishes for Astha. Simran then cuts a piece of cake and tries to feed Astha. Astha takes it from her hand and feeds it to her Dadi. Simran is upset, so are others.
Sid and Sia are driving when Sia gets a call. Somebody enquires about her Ad and says they will like to meet her tomorrow. Sia is happy, so is Sid. Sia says she hopes to meet her mom soon. Sia calls Archana. Archana is delighted to get her call. Sia tells her that in a few days time, i will be meeting my mother. Archana's face gets pale. Sia is excited, Archana tells her that she hopes she sees her mother. She also remeinds her of her promise. Sia says she knows it, will definitely get back to her. Archana disconnects the phone, appears sad. Nani sees it, asks the matter. Archana tells what Sia said. Nani is shocked, says this cannot happen. The photo that Sia assumes to be her photo, is not her photo. It is your daughter's photo . I always worried about you, never thought about anything else. You lost your daughter, was depressed when she died. Then your husband left you. I then, wished only for your happiness. If people are approaching Sia as mother, then they are committing a fraud. Archana cries saying that is what i am worried about. Nani says don't worry. Sia will come back to us. They both hug.
Abhi's father is talking to Simran about Astha. He tells her that Astha keeps enquiring about Radha to Poonam. Simran asks him whether she asked about me. He says the problem is she hates you, thinks about Radha always. Simran consoles him and keeps the phone. Saurabh asks Simran , Simran says that Astha is worried about Radha. Saurabh enquires whether Astha asks for her. Simran says she hates me, why will she think of me? Saurabh is sad. Simran consoles him. Simran says after all, my relatioship was not true. Saurabh says if the love you gave to her was not true, then what is true? He is dejected, Simran tries to console him...
Sid is talking to two sets of couple who have come there claiming that Sia is their kid. Sid questions them, they give irrelevant answers. Their answers do nt tally with Sia's background. Sia is dejected. Sid asks them to go away.
Sid then tries to console Sia who is upset and confused. Sid says might be that your mother did not see this paper. She might not be in this town. We can try giving this ad in many other papers. Cheer up, he says. Sia says he helps her a lot and thanks him. Sia says she will got to Goa for sometime and come.
Abhi is lost in his thoughts when Bhavani asks him to get ready. Bhavani asks Abhi what the matter is . Abhi says thinking about Astha. He says thank god, i handled the situation. I was thinking about what you said that i ran away from responsibilities. Bahavani says sorry if you are hurt. Abhi says no. Then they are about to leave when Abhi sees thro the window Sia coming. He is shocked, makes signs to Bhavani to ask her go away. Bhavani does not understand. Abhi then tells him what the matter is and pushes him out. Sia is near the door when Bhavani is pushed out.Sia asks about Anand. He says Anand is not here. He blabbers at first, then says this house is his. He bought it from Anand. Sia peeps in , asks him whether Anand sold this house along with his books and furntiture. Bhavani blabbers again, says he has to leave now. He closes the door. He goes in. He calls Abhi out who is in hiding. He tells him that Sia is not going, when he comes out. Abhi runs in again, Bhavani laughs at him, says she has gone. Abhi comes out with a relief. He then sees thro the window, then they both go out. Bhavani asks Abhi so this is Sia. She is a good girl. As they go out, Sia is standing there. She calls Anand. Why are you hiding from me? Why? Why are you avoiding me, Anand, she asks. Anand is shocked, does not know what to answer. Bhavani also sees him with a blank look.
