Amy asks a dejected Chandini to cheer up and for fun, she teasingly asks her if she would like to take a puff! Chandini is upset by this remark and tells her that she has never ever taken drugs in her life. She tells Amy that Mini didi has the same sanskar as her and therefore would never go to that club. Amy asks her if she is 100% sure and tells her that she knows Mumbai city and you never know when you will get sucked into this city's colours. But Chandini says that Mini didi is very strong and will not fall into such traps. Amy then asks her that now how will she find Manisha?
Back in the club, Manisha is on a total high and is grooving to a Punjabi remix song with her other zonked out friends.
Back in IC, Kabir receives a call from the same abusive person. He grits his teeth and keeps down the headphones. Chandini who is noticing this comes upto him and tells him that everybody knows it is not his fault and it is time they did something to solve the issue, like going to Vishesh. But Kabir says it is no use and tells her that Vishesh gave an announcement that if the employees cannot handle such calls, then action will be taken against them. Just then Vishesh comes to the hub along with Adi and demands to know what gupshup is going on. Chandini says everybody are getting abusive calls, but Vishesh tells her that they must handle it and if they cannot, then they better sign on their resignation letters. He walks angrily out of the hub leaving behind a stunned Chandini.
In the morning in the chawl, Beeji is hanging clothes and Chandini tells her that she searched for Manisha everywhere in the club, but she was nowhere to be found. She tells Beeji about the crowd in the club and asks her what makes them go into nasha. Beeji says that it is because they want to forget about life's daily troubles. But once they get down from the nasha, then again they are forced to face the daily life. Chandini tells her that I feel as if I don't belong to this world at all. But Beeji tells her that the path which she has taken is based on truth and moral values. She says this duniya is like a samundar. If a person is weak, then he is trapped in the sea. Only those people who are strong in heart and who have full confidence in themselves and God can come out. It is at those times that their sanskar and values come to their rescue. Chandini tells her that she is really trying, but Manisha throws water on all her efforts. A sad Beeji comes and sits next to Chandini and agrees saying that she cannot understand why Manisha is doing this. Can't she understand the tadap which they are going through? Chandini says, kahan ho aap Mini didi? Jaldi vapas aajayiye.
Manisha who is sleeping on a bed gets up, but groans and flops back on the bed because she has a terrible hangover. Her friend, the hippy girl with the pierced tongue comes into the room and hands her a cup of black coffee with no sugar saying it is the best cure for a hangover. Moreover, there is no other thing left in the house. She tells Manisha that she was in such a nasha yesterday that she and Akshay had to bring her to the room. Manisha thanks her for her help, but the girl tells her that by saying thanks, she is not doing justice to their dosti. She tells Manisha that she has only Rs. 100 left in her purse and she doesn't know what to do. Manisha assures her that she has a lot of money and says that life is for living and one should never worry about tomorrow.
In IC, Chandini receives a call and it turns out to be the same abusive caller who calls her a bloody Indian and other names besides. Chandini cannot tolerate it and asks the caller to be put on hold. Kabir who is listening tells Chandini that whether it is the same abusive caller and reminds her of Vishesh's warning. Chandini thinks of Beeji's advice and with a determined look goes to Vishesh's cabin. She tells him it is the same abusive caller and asks him to come to the hub to listen to him personally. If he feels that she has no experience in handling such calls, then whatever decision he takes, she will accept it. Vishesh asks her sarcastically if he has to prove himself even after so many years of service. He agrees and goes to Chandini's desk, puts the speaker on and picks up the call asking politely how he might be of help. The caller launches into a tirade against him saying that he doesn't need any help from these bloody Indians as they are responsible for him losing his job, etc…………. Vishesh is shocked to hear all these comments. He finally can't take it anymore, shouts at the caller that he shouldn't take out his frustrations on them and bangs the phone down. Everybody in the hub including Adi who has just come in is shocked to see this. Vishesh then announces that he has taken a decision that anybody who gets such abusive calls has the permission to disconnect it. He will inform the management also about it. Everybody is very happy at this and start clapping.
In the chawl, Vidya brings a cup of sugarless tea to Beeji and Mrs. Godbole walks in jubilantly holding a piece of paper saying that it is the contract of the school to whom they delivered dibbas. The school wants them to supply more dibbas. She hands over money to Beeji saying that it is her advance and if she keeps her partner happy, then their business will also be very successful. Beeji is also very happy, but wonders how they will manage so many dibbas. Vidya assures her that all of them are here to help. Mrs. Godbole reminds her of the song, saathi haath badana and all 3 are singing and laughing when they stop suddenly as Chandini enters the room. Chandini is surprised to see the money in Beeji's hands. Mrs. Godbole and Vidya make excuses and leave the room and Chandini asks Beeji how come Mrs. Godbole gave her money. Beeji says that Chandini works all night and morning, so in order to keep herself occupied, she helped Mrs. Godbole with the tiffins. Chandini is hurt that Beeji kept such a big secret from her and asks her if that is all the faith she has in Chandini. But Beeji tells her that young people think that just because a person gets old, they shouldn't work. She is doing all this to keep herself occupied, and if she also gets money for it, what is the harm? After all, this money is to help find Manisha because she is as much her granddaughter as she is sister to Chandini and even she wants to help in finding her. She assures Chandini that from now on, she won't hide anything from her. Chandini hugs Beeji and asks her if she will always be with her and Beeji assures her that it will always be so.
Chandini and Amy are walking along a street and Chandini asks Amy as to how she will find her Mini didi now. Just then, in the adjacent street Manisha and her hippy friend are walking along having icecreams!

Manisha and her friend are walking and her friend ( who doesn't know Manisha's real name and thinks it is Ruby ) says that it is so nice to be walking in such a nice weather, warm sun, with a hangover and eating icecream. She suddenly asks as to who Manisha is. A stunned Manisha drops the icecream and tells her that she doesn't know any Manisha. Her friend tells her that yesterday night when you were in nasha and you took pity on those 2 freaks, you mentioned Manisha's name. Is she related to you by any chance? Manisha is totally panicked and tells her friend that she doesn't know any Manisha, she has no family, just her friends. She doesn't want to bring up the past because she believes in only living in the present. She warns her friend not to mention this topic again. Her surprised friend tells her to relax and says she won't. They continue walking and pass by Chandini and Amy who don't notice them.
Amy tells Chandini that she has a bright idea of putting up Manisha's poster outside the club so that somebody can notice it and give them some information about Manisha. Chandini is reluctant because she doesn't want Manisha's name to be badnaam, but Amy tells her that they won't give any details just a poster saying she is missing and anybody who can give them some information can contact them and get Rs. 2000 as reward. She tells Chandini that the people at the club are always in dire need of money and somebody will surely tell them something. Chandini begins to feel hopeful and asks Amy if this plan will work and Amy tells her there is no harm in trying.
Chandini and Amy go to the club's entrance stealthily and put up the notice on the wall.
A tensed Beeji is pacing the roof of the chawl ticking things of a list when Chandini comes to her excitedly and tells her that she has put up a poster in the club and that most probably by evening, they will get some information about Manisha. Beeji is very happy, but tells Chandini that she has to get back to her list.
Manisha and her friend go to the club and her friend tells her that she will just go into the club for a few minutes because she forgot some things inside and she has to just go and get them. Manisha waits outside for her and suddenly catches sight of the poster. She is shocked to see it and thinks to herself that once again Chandini has tried to follow her. She stealthily takes out the poster and hastily puts it into her purse when her friend comes out and both leave.
Manisha is sitting in a restaurant and her friend brings her coffee telling her this is the fourth coffee that she has taken on loan from Manisha, but she will pay it back. A smiling Manisha assures her not to worry. Her friend tells her that a DJ in the club will be releasing his album next week and that she has got a special invitation for the launch which means that booze will be totally free. She tells Manisha that they both should go to the party and rock. Manisha is only half listening to the conversation because her gaze falls upon 2 small girls who are sitting in a nearby table and arguing. They are sisters and one girl is accusing the other that it isn't fair that she keeps getting the best designs of the clothes. Seeing them, Manisha goes back into flashback of the past where she and Chandini argued about the payal and then enjoyed swinging. Her friend sees her totally lost and tries to rouse her back to the present. Finally frustrated, she dips Manisha's finger in the hot coffee and the Manisha comes back to the present with a start. Her friend asks her what is the matter and Manisha says that she is looking at the 2 sisters and how they are arguing. Her friend asks her that suddenly why she is becoming touchy about family when she herself said she has no family, just her friends. Manisha doesn't answer and tells her friend that they should both leave.
Beeji is totally busy in the kitchen supervising and bossing the helpers and Mrs. Godbole about the preparations. Vidya comes and asks her why she is so tensed and a worried Beeji says that they still have so much cooking to do in 1 hour so that they can deliver the dibbas to the Gyanmandir school. Chandini also comes in and gives Beeji a present. It is a red apron which has the words 'World's Best Cook' written on it. She says that the whole world should know that no one prepares food as good as her Beeji and ties the apron around Beeji and Beeji sheds tears of happiness and accuses Chandini of making her cry. Chandini tells her that she is very proud to be the loved granddaughter of her only Beeji. Beeji thanks Matharani and asks her for just one more favour, and that is to return her other granddaughter back to her. Chandini asks Beeji whether the worry of Manisha is gnawing at her heart and Beeji says yes.
Manisha is sleeping when images of her family flashes through her mind and she gets up with a start. Her friend also wakes up and asks her what the matter. Manisha remains silent. Her friend sits beside her and tells her that she is not very intelligent, but she noticed that ever since Manisha saw the 2 girls in the restaurant she has become very disturbed. She asks Manisha to tell her what is the matter. Manisha bursts into tears and tells her friend that she had a dream in which she saw her house and family, her father, mother, her younger sister Chandini and her Beeji. She says that Chandini loves her a lot and recounts wistfully how in childhood, she and Chandini used to fight so much, but they also couldn't remain without one another. Many times she gets the urge to hug Chandini or to sleep in her Beeji's lap and cry, but cannot go near them because she fears that they won't accept her the way she has become. She has totally changed and they might not even recognize her. Her friend is silent for a moment and asks her what does she plan to do now. Manisha says that she can't meet them, but if she just sees her Beeji and Chandini once, she will be satisfied.
Meanwhile Chandini is standing in the bus stop waiting for the cab and also thinking about Manisha. She thinks to herself that till now, nobody has called with any information about Manisha.
In IC, Chandini gets a call from Tulsi ( Vidya's saas ) who asks her to come to the chawl fast as her Beeji is in trouble.
Back in the chawl, all the chawl people are discussing with each other excitedly. They say that Beeji is now in lot of trouble and there could even be police involved. Just then police arrive with a few frantic people. At the same time, Manisha also comes to the chawl stealthily, but when she sees the police, she puts a dupatta over her head and hides behind some trees. The frantic people tell the police that their children are in hospital and it is all Sunitha Godbole's and an old lady ( i.e. Beeji's ) fault. The police inspector asks them to remain calm, but the parents say that they cannot when their children are in hospital and if the police don't do anything, then they will resort to action but they won't leave the two women. Manisha who is listening to everything asks herself worriedly as to what her Beeji did so that she came into trouble. The inspector demands to know where is Sunitha Godbole's house and the chawl people point it out. A very worried Mukund is looking on. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole come out and the parents start accusing them of sending stale food to their children for which reason they are now in hospital. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole plead with the parents saying they have children of their own and they would never do anything like this. They plead with the inspector not to arrest them because they would be in disgrace. But the inspector says that 20 children have already been admitted in hospital and the reason is because these 2 women have mixed impurities so that they make more profit. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are shocked to hear this and try to defend themselves, but the inspector refuses to listen to them and handcuffs the both of them. He goes out taking Beeji and Mrs. Godbole. Manisha is shocked to see Beeji in such a state, but she cannot do anything and looks totally helpless. Just then Chandini comes running upto Beeji and pleads with the inspector to let her Beeji go as she is totally innocent. She cries and hugs Beeji not to go as she will become totally alone. Manisha is watching all this with tears in her eyes. A tearful Sunitha Godbole bids goodbye to Mukund and Tulsi assures her that she will take care of him. The inspector goes forward taking the 2 women and the crowd and Manisha is left staring helplessly.
Preview of next episode: Mukund and Chandini go to the police station, but the police in charge says that unless bail is provided, Beeji and Mrs. Godbole will have to stay in the jail as his guests. A worried Chandini and Mukund look at each other.

Start of episode
The crowd gathered in the chawl slowly disperse leaving Mukund and Chandini standing alone. Mukund asks Chandini worriedly if something will happen to his aai and Chandini assures him that nothing will happen. She tells Mukund to come with her to the police station, but suddenly she says that Beeji is unwell and hasn't even taken her shawl. She tells Mukund to come with her to the room and is walking when suddenly she stops short on hearing a noise. She looks towards the trees where Manisha is hiding, but she doesn't hear anything else. Mukund asks her what is the matter. Chandini shakes her head slowly and both walk off. Manisha's face then emerges from the trees and she goes away from there.
Chandini takes Beeji's shawl from the almirah. Mukund tells Chandini that he has some money. Chandini goes to the table drawer and takes out the Rs. 1000 which Mrs. Godbole had given Beeji as an advance. She tells Mukund that in Jalandhar, they didn't let Beeji lift even a finger and now Beeji was forced to do work to earn money. Maybe it was because they had to face such a day. She prays to Matharani to make everything go well. The two come out of the room to be met by a very worried Vidya. She tells Chandini that Prem has gone on a picnic from his office and he has also taken Beeji's tiffin dibba. He hasn't come back yet, and after what happened to the children, she is very worried about his health. Chandini assures her that Prem will be perfectly ok.
Mrs. Godbole and Beeji are sitting in the police station and Beeji says that when her husband walked in Jalandhar, he was so respected that nobody had the courage to even look at him directly and now his wife is inside the police station. Just then a woman police orders the two of them to get inside the cell. Beeji gets up, trips up but is held by Chandini. Chandini pleads with the woman police asking her if she cannot see how unwell her Beeji is. She puts the shawl around Beeji. Just then the police chief comes and asks them what is the hulla. Chandini pleads with him to release her Beeji as they are innocent. But the police says that it is a serious matter as 20 children are hospitalized and if he tries to help, he will surely lose his job. He is helpless as his hands are bound by the law. He tells her that the only way out is to provide bail money in the morning and till then the two have to remain in jail. The woman police lead the two women into the cell. Mukund tells Chandini that he knows a lawyer who might be able to help them.
Chandini and Mukund go to the lawyer's house and Mukund rings the bell. The lawyer who is in his nightsuit is surprised to see Mukund at such an hour in the night. Mukund says that they are in trouble and they need his help. The lawyer silently closes the door. A dejected Chandini and Mukund look at each other and slowly turn around when the lawyer opens the door again. He is buttoning his shirt and tells the two to come inside.
A frantic Manisha comes back to her room and starts banging on the door and calling out her friend's name which is Loweena. Loweena opens the door and asks Manisha why she was banging on the door when she knows it is so late and what the society people think of the both of them. Manisha who is pacing the floor worriedly suddenly asks Loweena if she has any money because she needs lots of it. Loweena says that you know about my state. I had Rs. 4000 but I had to pay the bania and now only Rs. 600 are left. She asks Manisha how much she wants and Manisha answers Rs. 50,000. Loweena is shocked at the amount and asks her why she wants so much, but Manisha just brushes it off and says she just wants it now. Loweena suggests Akshay and some other guy's name called AJ from whom she might be able to get money, but Manisha refuses. She suddenly thinks of somebody and rushes out of the room.
The lawyer tells Chandini that she has to arrange for the bail money by the morning and in the meantime he will get all the papers ready. Till then nothing can be done. He asks her if she has any money. Chandini then takes out her money, the lawyer asks her how much she has and Chandini replies Rs. 1000. The lawyer says that nothing can be done with Rs. 1000 and you need Rs. 4000 minimum. Chandini is shocked at the amount and the lawyer says it is a big procedure to get bail and every step – from the stamp papers to getting the signatures requires money. He then tells Chandini that if they have money difficulty, he has a way. Getting bail only for 1 person is easier and much less costly. Chandini looks at Mukund and shakes her head saying she wants bail for both Beeji as well as Sunitha tai. The lawyer asks if she knows anybody influential who can give sifarish. Chandini says no and then Mukund suggests her boss. Chandini calls up Vishesh's mobile, but it is switched off. She then calls Amy and tells her that Beeji is in the police station now. Amy is shocked and asks her why, but Chandini says she will tell the matter later. She tells Amy that Vishesh's cell is switched off and Amy says that is because he has left for an urgent meeting to Singapore and must be in the plane by now. Chandini is frustrated. Amy tells her that they can leave a message on Jenny's desk and when Vishesh sir gets it, he will call back. But Chandini says it will be too late by then. Amy tells her she will come by as soon as her shift finishes and a frustrated Chandini puts down the phone. She suddenly thinks of something and tells the lawyer that she will go and arrange for money by the morning.
Loweena who is smoking a joint tells Manisha that even Roshan didn't give you the money right? That is because he spent all the money on drugs yesterday. Taking a drag from the cigarette, she says and it is mindblowing. She offers the joint to Manisha who refuses to take it. Akshay asks Manisha what she is planning to do with Rs. 50,000 and an irritated Manisha snaps back saying she will tear it, burn it, what does he care?
Chandini takes out Manisha's payal and tells Mukund to sell it so that they can get some money. Mukund says, but the payal belongs to your sister. But Chandini tells him that they came to Mumbai just to find Manisha. They had thought they will take Manisha back to Jalandhar as soon as possible. But such a thing does not seem to be happening quickly and they are facing all sorts of problems. She is strong enough to handle it, but her poor Beeji cannot take the strain. She says that if by selling her sister's payal, she can help Beeji out of trouble then she doesn't mind. Just then Vidya comes in worriedly and tells Chandini with tears in her eyes that Prem has still not come and she is very worried. Her saas does not know about the tiffin and if she does, she will be very angry with her. Chandini asks Mukund to get a rick and she tries to console Vidya. She tells her to call up Prem's office and Vidya says that she has already called 10 times, but nobody knows anything and even the guard is getting irritated at her. She tells Chandini that she doesn't even know the mobile numbers of any of Prem's friends. Chandini assures her that everything will be fine and tells Vidya to pray to Matharani.
Mukund is walking to get the rick when he suddenly stops short on seeing Prem and exclaims 'Prem'. Prem asks Mukund why he is so surprised to see him. Vidya and Chandini also come out and both are very happy on seeing Prem. Vidya tells Chandini that Matharani's aashirwaad has worked and in sheer happiness she goes and hugs Prem. Prem then tells Chandini that her Beeji's chole was amazing and everybody in his office loved it. He says that he wants more of her food. Chandini then tells Vidya that everybody in Prem's office ate Beeji's food and are fine which means that the children's food poisoning was caused by some other source. She tells Vidya that only she can save her Beeji by giving a statement to the police. Vidya remains silent and a worried Chandini asks her what is the matter. Vidya with her head hanging down says, that you know I cannot give such a statement. Chandini is shocked and asks why? Just then Tulsi ( Vidya's saas ) says because bahus of respectable families don't go to police stations to give statements. She berates Vidya for not telling her that she gave Prem Beeji's food in which zahar was mixed. Chandini pleads with her, but she refuses to listen and goes inside. Vidya is turning to go inside when Chandini implores her to give the statement. But a silent Vidya just goes inside the house with Prem ( who is having a guilty look in her face ) following her. Chandini is left standing helplessly.

Feb. 9 by Viduraju
Amy is speaking to Chandini ( the lawyer and Mukund are also present ) over the phone and tells her that Vishesh has already got her message and is trying the top police inspector's number, but nobody is picking up the phone. Chandini becomes frustrated. Amy tells her not to worry and says that she will come over as soon as their shift is over.
A worried Chandini puts down the phone and says that this means she cannot free her Beeji now. The lawyer says that anyway till morning we can't do anything. Chandini with tears in her eyes says that her Beeji is very unwell and if she spends the whole night in the jail, her situation will get even worse.
Akshay and Loweena are lying in the room ( Manisha has gone out somewhere ) and Loweena asks Akshay why he didn't help Manisha when he had money with him. Akshay tries to deny it, but Loweena takes out a wad of money from his bag and asks him what this is. Akshay snatches the money from her and tells her that his brother has sent it to him. It is his money and his needs are very important. Loweena says that Manisha's problem is even more important than yours, but Akshay impatiently reminds her that this money is for their most important need and that is drugs. Loweena just flops back onto the bed. Akshay asks her for a cup of coffee and Loweena asks him to help her. Both head for the kitchen unaware that Manisha has been stealthily listening to the whole conversation. She sits on the bed and remembers Chandini's tearful face pleading with the police not to take her Beeji. She goes to Akshay's bag, takes out the money with a guilty expression on her face and then suddenly puts it back because she hears a noise. Akshay and Loweena come back to the room and Akshay gives Manisha a cup of coffee telling her that she should drink the coffee and smoke a joint later and then she will forget all her troubles.
Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are sitting dejectedly inside the cell and Beeji is trying to warm herself from the cold. Suddenly someone catches hold of her hand and she looks up to find Chandini. Chandini with tears in her eyes asks Beeji if her joints ache a lot and says she is bebas as she can't do anyhthig to help. But Beeji putting up a brave expression says that it is just because of old age. Sunitha massaged her feet so nicely, she has got strength in her legs again and now she feels like dancing Bhangra in front of all these people! Chandini takes her leave and bursts into tears outside the cells. The senior inspector looks at her and tells her that he is sorry for the pain she must be feeling, bu he is helpless as his hands are bound by the law. He slyly suggests to Chandini that she is not trying harder and she should concentrate her efforts in one direction only ( No doubt he is expecting some sort of rishwath ). Chandini thinks for sometime and tells the inspector that he is absolutely right. She tells Mukund that they will go to the hospital to meet the parents of the sick children and explain to them about the state of Beeji and Sunitha tai. Surely they will take pity on them and one or two will come and tell the police. They go from there and the irritated inspector thinks to himself that they didn't even understand what he was trying to say.
Chandini and Mukund go to the hospital but both stop short on seeing the children moaning in pain to their parents who are trying to comfor them. Chandini collapses in tears against a wall and asks Mukund as to how they can ask these people to leave their sick children and come with them to the police station. Just then they overhear a woman telling her sick boy that she will definitely take action against Sunitha Godbole and that old buddi. The nurse noticing Mukund tells the woman that it is Sunitha's son. The woman in anger comes upto Chandini and Mukund and tells them that if anything happens to her son, then she will kill Beeji and Mrs. Godbole with her own hands. Chandini crying tells the woman that her Beeji is totally innocent. Her Beeji is the sort of person who gets upset when she sees hurt and poor children so how can she hurt so many children knowingly by mixing impurities in the food. Another mother who is listening exclaims, khana! She tells Chandini that she sends homecooked food for her son and that after school, he along with other children went to a panipuri stand. Chandini is shocked and exclaims, Panipuri!
Manisha who is unable to sleep gets up. She looks at Akshay and Loweena who are fast asleep and then at Akshay's bag where the money is kept.
Chandini tells Mukund that all they have to do is to go to the police inspector and tell him that it is the panipuri vendor's fault that the children are hospitalized and not Beeji and therefore they will surely be freed. A vendor who is listening to them asks Chandini as to what world she lives in. He informs the two that the police had already caught the panipuri vendor yesterday evening, but they let him go because he gave them chai pani. Chandini is confused at the term and asks the vendor what he means. The vendor says that it means rokda or rishwath. Chandini is shocked to hear this and tells the vendor that she is her Beeji's granddaughter and she remember's her father's advice and moral values and she will do no such wrong deed.
Simultaneously Manisha takes the money from Akshay's bag and tells sorry to Akshay silently and that she is only doing this to free Beeji.
Chandini, the lawyer and Mukund are opposite to the chief inspector. The inspector pleads with the inspector to do something quick to release Beeji as they are having money difficulty. The police inspector tells them that his hands are bound by the law and he cannot do anything. Chandini tells him that everybody knows by now that it is the panipuri vendor's fault, but the inspector tells Chandini that an FIR has been lodged in Beeji and Sunitha's name and unless they arrange for the bail money, he is helpless. The lawyer tells Chandini that he put in maximum efforts, but all in vain and he can do no more to help them. Chandini sinks back to the chair and tells that, where are you Mini didi. If anything happens to Beeji, I will not be able to forgive you. Just then Amy comes in and asks Chandini if 'she' will be able to forgive herself if anything happened to Beeji. Chandini looks at her in surprise and Amy tells her that she is being very stubborn; here the whole system is like this. Without chai paani nothing can be done. And right now nothing matters more than Beeji's health. Kabir who has come along with Amy agrees to this and shows Chandini money saying that everybody at IC including Varun, Smitha and Kavitha have contributed money. Chandini thanks Kabir, but tells him she has no use for it as she can't go against her moral principles. Amy and Kabir try to make her understand and Chandini with tears in her eyes just leaves the station and goes outside.
Chandini leans against a post and says to herself that all the differences between good and bad are blurring. The same values which she was brought up with hang like chains around her legs. On one hand there are her principles and on the other hand is beeji whose is in deep trouble. Just then Amy and Kabir come up to her and Amy tells Chandini worriedly that Beeji is suffering a lot from joint pain and she really requires painkillers. Kabir offers to get the medicine and leaves. Chandini thinks to herself that if some money can help my Beeji get out of trouble, then I will forget my principles and do whatever I can to free her.
Chandini and Amy walk back into the police station, but the chief inspector is not there. They ask another police officer who tells them that the inspector has gone out and will return shortly. He asks the two to wait and they wait on a seat. Just then Vidya and Prem come in and Chandini is totally surprised to seem them. Vidya tells Chandini that she has come to give the statement to the police. Chandini in surprise exclaims, What?! Vidya tells her that it was Prem who made her realize what a wrong thing she was doing by not giving the statement. Amy tells Vidya that there is no need for her statement because anyway they have to give the police chai pani. But Chandini tells her that there is still need for Vidya's statement. Vidya made her realize how quickly she gave up the struggle so fast. She says that she will take Beeji out of jail, but without giving rishwath. Amy is shocked to hear this and reminds Chandini of how much pain Beeji is in. But Chandini tells her that Beeji will get even more pain if she comes to find out that Chandini disregarded her values. Just then the inspector comes in and tells Chandini that he letting her Beeji go and asks Chandini why didn't she tell him that she knows the DCP? ( I'm presuming that it is the work of Vishesh; he must have contacted the DCP ). Chandini is so happy on hearing this.
Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are sitting inside the cell when a lady police officer unlocks the cell and tells the two that they are free to go. Both smile at each other at relief and come out. A happy Mukund comes and hugs his mother and an ecstatic Chandini runs forward and throws herself on Beeji followed by the others who are all happy. This happy reunion is witnessed by Manisha who just arrives outside the station in a taxi. With tears in her Beeji, she sees Beeji and Chandini hugging each other with happy smiles on their faces. She can't take it anymore and runs towards them ( their backs are towards her ). She exclaims Beeji and both Chandini and Beeji turn around and they are absolutely SHOCKED to see Manisha in front of them. They look at each other in ecstatic surprise. Chandini exclaims, Mini didi!

Start of episode
Amy asks a dejected Chandini to cheer up and for fun, she teasingly asks her if she would like to take a puff! Chandini is upset by this remark and tells her that she has never ever taken drugs in her life. She tells Amy that Mini didi has the same sanskar as her and therefore would never go to that club. Amy asks her if she is 100% sure and tells her that she knows Mumbai city and you never know when you will get sucked into this city's colours. But Chandini says that Mini didi is very strong and will not fall into such traps. Amy then asks her that now how will she find Manisha?
Back in the club, Manisha is on a total high and is grooving to a Punjabi remix song with her other zonked out friends.
Back in IC, Kabir receives a call from the same abusive person. He grits his teeth and keeps down the headphones. Chandini who is noticing this comes upto him and tells him that everybody knows it is not his fault and it is time they did something to solve the issue, like going to Vishesh. But Kabir says it is no use and tells her that Vishesh gave an announcement that if the employees cannot handle such calls, then action will be taken against them. Just then Vishesh comes to the hub along with Adi and demands to know what gupshup is going on. Chandini says everybody are getting abusive calls, but Vishesh tells her that they must handle it and if they cannot, then they better sign on their resignation letters. He walks angrily out of the hub leaving behind a stunned Chandini.
In the morning in the chawl, Beeji is hanging clothes and Chandini tells her that she searched for Manisha everywhere in the club, but she was nowhere to be found. She tells Beeji about the crowd in the club and asks her what makes them go into nasha. Beeji says that it is because they want to forget about life's daily troubles. But once they get down from the nasha, then again they are forced to face the daily life. Chandini tells her that I feel as if I don't belong to this world at all. But Beeji tells her that the path which she has taken is based on truth and moral values. She says this duniya is like a samundar. If a person is weak, then he is trapped in the sea. Only those people who are strong in heart and who have full confidence in themselves and God can come out. It is at those times that their sanskar and values come to their rescue. Chandini tells her that she is really trying, but Manisha throws water on all her efforts. A sad Beeji comes and sits next to Chandini and agrees saying that she cannot understand why Manisha is doing this. Can't she understand the tadap which they are going through? Chandini says, kahan ho aap Mini didi? Jaldi vapas aajayiye.
Manisha who is sleeping on a bed gets up, but groans and flops back on the bed because she has a terrible hangover. Her friend, the hippy girl with the pierced tongue comes into the room and hands her a cup of black coffee with no sugar saying it is the best cure for a hangover. Moreover, there is no other thing left in the house. She tells Manisha that she was in such a nasha yesterday that she and Akshay had to bring her to the room. Manisha thanks her for her help, but the girl tells her that by saying thanks, she is not doing justice to their dosti. She tells Manisha that she has only Rs. 100 left in her purse and she doesn't know what to do. Manisha assures her that she has a lot of money and says that life is for living and one should never worry about tomorrow.
In IC, Chandini receives a call and it turns out to be the same abusive caller who calls her a bloody Indian and other names besides. Chandini cannot tolerate it and asks the caller to be put on hold. Kabir who is listening tells Chandini that whether it is the same abusive caller and reminds her of Vishesh's warning. Chandini thinks of Beeji's advice and with a determined look goes to Vishesh's cabin. She tells him it is the same abusive caller and asks him to come to the hub to listen to him personally. If he feels that she has no experience in handling such calls, then whatever decision he takes, she will accept it. Vishesh asks her sarcastically if he has to prove himself even after so many years of service. He agrees and goes to Chandini's desk, puts the speaker on and picks up the call asking politely how he might be of help. The caller launches into a tirade against him saying that he doesn't need any help from these bloody Indians as they are responsible for him losing his job, etc…………. Vishesh is shocked to hear all these comments. He finally can't take it anymore, shouts at the caller that he shouldn't take out his frustrations on them and bangs the phone down. Everybody in the hub including Adi who has just come in is shocked to see this. Vishesh then announces that he has taken a decision that anybody who gets such abusive calls has the permission to disconnect it. He will inform the management also about it. Everybody is very happy at this and start clapping.
In the chawl, Vidya brings a cup of sugarless tea to Beeji and Mrs. Godbole walks in jubilantly holding a piece of paper saying that it is the contract of the school to whom they delivered dibbas. The school wants them to supply more dibbas. She hands over money to Beeji saying that it is her advance and if she keeps her partner happy, then their business will also be very successful. Beeji is also very happy, but wonders how they will manage so many dibbas. Vidya assures her that all of them are here to help. Mrs. Godbole reminds her of the song, saathi haath badana and all 3 are singing and laughing when they stop suddenly as Chandini enters the room. Chandini is surprised to see the money in Beeji's hands. Mrs. Godbole and Vidya make excuses and leave the room and Chandini asks Beeji how come Mrs. Godbole gave her money. Beeji says that Chandini works all night and morning, so in order to keep herself occupied, she helped Mrs. Godbole with the tiffins. Chandini is hurt that Beeji kept such a big secret from her and asks her if that is all the faith she has in Chandini. But Beeji tells her that young people think that just because a person gets old, they shouldn't work. She is doing all this to keep herself occupied, and if she also gets money for it, what is the harm? After all, this money is to help find Manisha because she is as much her granddaughter as she is sister to Chandini and even she wants to help in finding her. She assures Chandini that from now on, she won't hide anything from her. Chandini hugs Beeji and asks her if she will always be with her and Beeji assures her that it will always be so.
Chandini and Amy are walking along a street and Chandini asks Amy as to how she will find her Mini didi now. Just then, in the adjacent street Manisha and her hippy friend are walking along having icecreams!

Feb. 7 by Viduraju
Manisha and her friend are walking and her friend ( who doesn't know Manisha's real name and thinks it is Ruby ) says that it is so nice to be walking in such a nice weather, warm sun, with a hangover and eating icecream. She suddenly asks as to who Manisha is. A stunned Manisha drops the icecream and tells her that she doesn't know any Manisha. Her friend tells her that yesterday night when you were in nasha and you took pity on those 2 freaks, you mentioned Manisha's name. Is she related to you by any chance? Manisha is totally panicked and tells her friend that she doesn't know any Manisha, she has no family, just her friends. She doesn't want to bring up the past because she believes in only living in the present. She warns her friend not to mention this topic again. Her surprised friend tells her to relax and says she won't. They continue walking and pass by Chandini and Amy who don't notice them.
Amy tells Chandini that she has a bright idea of putting up Manisha's poster outside the club so that somebody can notice it and give them some information about Manisha. Chandini is reluctant because she doesn't want Manisha's name to be badnaam, but Amy tells her that they won't give any details just a poster saying she is missing and anybody who can give them some information can contact them and get Rs. 2000 as reward. She tells Chandini that the people at the club are always in dire need of money and somebody will surely tell them something. Chandini begins to feel hopeful and asks Amy if this plan will work and Amy tells her there is no harm in trying.
Chandini and Amy go to the club's entrance stealthily and put up the notice on the wall.
A tensed Beeji is pacing the roof of the chawl ticking things of a list when Chandini comes to her excitedly and tells her that she has put up a poster in the club and that most probably by evening, they will get some information about Manisha. Beeji is very happy, but tells Chandini that she has to get back to her list.
Manisha and her friend go to the club and her friend tells her that she will just go into the club for a few minutes because she forgot some things inside and she has to just go and get them. Manisha waits outside for her and suddenly catches sight of the poster. She is shocked to see it and thinks to herself that once again Chandini has tried to follow her. She stealthily takes out the poster and hastily puts it into her purse when her friend comes out and both leave.
Manisha is sitting in a restaurant and her friend brings her coffee telling her this is the fourth coffee that she has taken on loan from Manisha, but she will pay it back. A smiling Manisha assures her not to worry. Her friend tells her that a DJ in the club will be releasing his album next week and that she has got a special invitation for the launch which means that booze will be totally free. She tells Manisha that they both should go to the party and rock. Manisha is only half listening to the conversation because her gaze falls upon 2 small girls who are sitting in a nearby table and arguing. They are sisters and one girl is accusing the other that it isn't fair that she keeps getting the best designs of the clothes. Seeing them, Manisha goes back into flashback of the past where she and Chandini argued about the payal and then enjoyed swinging. Her friend sees her totally lost and tries to rouse her back to the present. Finally frustrated, she dips Manisha's finger in the hot coffee and the Manisha comes back to the present with a start. Her friend asks her what is the matter and Manisha says that she is looking at the 2 sisters and how they are arguing. Her friend asks her that suddenly why she is becoming touchy about family when she herself said she has no family, just her friends. Manisha doesn't answer and tells her friend that they should both leave.
Beeji is totally busy in the kitchen supervising and bossing the helpers and Mrs. Godbole about the preparations. Vidya comes and asks her why she is so tensed and a worried Beeji says that they still have so much cooking to do in 1 hour so that they can deliver the dibbas to the Gyanmandir school. Chandini also comes in and gives Beeji a present. It is a red apron which has the words 'World's Best Cook' written on it. She says that the whole world should know that no one prepares food as good as her Beeji and ties the apron around Beeji and Beeji sheds tears of happiness and accuses Chandini of making her cry. Chandini tells her that she is very proud to be the loved granddaughter of her only Beeji. Beeji thanks Matharani and asks her for just one more favour, and that is to return her other granddaughter back to her. Chandini asks Beeji whether the worry of Manisha is gnawing at her heart and Beeji says yes.
Manisha is sleeping when images of her family flashes through her mind and she gets up with a start. Her friend also wakes up and asks her what the matter. Manisha remains silent. Her friend sits beside her and tells her that she is not very intelligent, but she noticed that ever since Manisha saw the 2 girls in the restaurant she has become very disturbed. She asks Manisha to tell her what is the matter. Manisha bursts into tears and tells her friend that she had a dream in which she saw her house and family, her father, mother, her younger sister Chandini and her Beeji. She says that Chandini loves her a lot and recounts wistfully how in childhood, she and Chandini used to fight so much, but they also couldn't remain without one another. Many times she gets the urge to hug Chandini or to sleep in her Beeji's lap and cry, but cannot go near them because she fears that they won't accept her the way she has become. She has totally changed and they might not even recognize her. Her friend is silent for a moment and asks her what does she plan to do now. Manisha says that she can't meet them, but if she just sees her Beeji and Chandini once, she will be satisfied.
Meanwhile Chandini is standing in the bus stop waiting for the cab and also thinking about Manisha. She thinks to herself that till now, nobody has called with any information about Manisha.
In IC, Chandini gets a call from Tulsi ( Vidya's saas ) who asks her to come to the chawl fast as her Beeji is in trouble.
Back in the chawl, all the chawl people are discussing with each other excitedly. They say that Beeji is now in lot of trouble and there could even be police involved. Just then police arrive with a few frantic people. At the same time, Manisha also comes to the chawl stealthily, but when she sees the police, she puts a dupatta over her head and hides behind some trees. The frantic people tell the police that their children are in hospital and it is all Sunitha Godbole's and an old lady ( i.e. Beeji's ) fault. The police inspector asks them to remain calm, but the parents say that they cannot when their children are in hospital and if the police don't do anything, then they will resort to action but they won't leave the two women. Manisha who is listening to everything asks herself worriedly as to what her Beeji did so that she came into trouble. The inspector demands to know where is Sunitha Godbole's house and the chawl people point it out. A very worried Mukund is looking on. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole come out and the parents start accusing them of sending stale food to their children for which reason they are now in hospital. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole plead with the parents saying they have children of their own and they would never do anything like this. They plead with the inspector not to arrest them because they would be in disgrace. But the inspector says that 20 children have already been admitted in hospital and the reason is because these 2 women have mixed impurities so that they make more profit. Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are shocked to hear this and try to defend themselves, but the inspector refuses to listen to them and handcuffs the both of them. He goes out taking Beeji and Mrs. Godbole. Manisha is shocked to see Beeji in such a state, but she cannot do anything and looks totally helpless. Just then Chandini comes running upto Beeji and pleads with the inspector to let her Beeji go as she is totally innocent. She cries and hugs Beeji not to go as she will become totally alone. Manisha is watching all this with tears in her eyes. A tearful Sunitha Godbole bids goodbye to Mukund and Tulsi assures her that she will take care of him. The inspector goes forward taking the 2 women and the crowd and Manisha is left staring helplessly.

Start of episode
The crowd gathered in the chawl slowly disperse leaving Mukund and Chandini standing alone. Mukund asks Chandini worriedly if something will happen to his aai and Chandini assures him that nothing will happen. She tells Mukund to come with her to the police station, but suddenly she says that Beeji is unwell and hasn't even taken her shawl. She tells Mukund to come with her to the room and is walking when suddenly she stops short on hearing a noise. She looks towards the trees where Manisha is hiding, but she doesn't hear anything else. Mukund asks her what is the matter. Chandini shakes her head slowly and both walk off. Manisha's face then emerges from the trees and she goes away from there.
Chandini takes Beeji's shawl from the almirah. Mukund tells Chandini that he has some money. Chandini goes to the table drawer and takes out the Rs. 1000 which Mrs. Godbole had given Beeji as an advance. She tells Mukund that in Jalandhar, they didn't let Beeji lift even a finger and now Beeji was forced to do work to earn money. Maybe it was because they had to face such a day. She prays to Matharani to make everything go well. The two come out of the room to be met by a very worried Vidya. She tells Chandini that Prem has gone on a picnic from his office and he has also taken Beeji's tiffin dibba. He hasn't come back yet, and after what happened to the children, she is very worried about his health. Chandini assures her that Prem will be perfectly ok.
Mrs. Godbole and Beeji are sitting in the police station and Beeji says that when her husband walked in Jalandhar, he was so respected that nobody had the courage to even look at him directly and now his wife is inside the police station. Just then a woman police orders the two of them to get inside the cell. Beeji gets up, trips up but is held by Chandini. Chandini pleads with the woman police asking her if she cannot see how unwell her Beeji is. She puts the shawl around Beeji. Just then the police chief comes and asks them what is the hulla. Chandini pleads with him to release her Beeji as they are innocent. But the police says that it is a serious matter as 20 children are hospitalized and if he tries to help, he will surely lose his job. He is helpless as his hands are bound by the law. He tells her that the only way out is to provide bail money in the morning and till then the two have to remain in jail. The woman police lead the two women into the cell. Mukund tells Chandini that he knows a lawyer who might be able to help them.
Chandini and Mukund go to the lawyer's house and Mukund rings the bell. The lawyer who is in his nightsuit is surprised to see Mukund at such an hour in the night. Mukund says that they are in trouble and they need his help. The lawyer silently closes the door. A dejected Chandini and Mukund look at each other and slowly turn around when the lawyer opens the door again. He is buttoning his shirt and tells the two to come inside.
A frantic Manisha comes back to her room and starts banging on the door and calling out her friend's name which is Loweena. Loweena opens the door and asks Manisha why she was banging on the door when she knows it is so late and what the society people think of the both of them. Manisha who is pacing the floor worriedly suddenly asks Loweena if she has any money because she needs lots of it. Loweena says that you know about my state. I had Rs. 4000 but I had to pay the bania and now only Rs. 600 are left. She asks Manisha how much she wants and Manisha answers Rs. 50,000. Loweena is shocked at the amount and asks her why she wants so much, but Manisha just brushes it off and says she just wants it now. Loweena suggests Akshay and some other guy's name called AJ from whom she might be able to get money, but Manisha refuses. She suddenly thinks of somebody and rushes out of the room.
The lawyer tells Chandini that she has to arrange for the bail money by the morning and in the meantime he will get all the papers ready. Till then nothing can be done. He asks her if she has any money. Chandini then takes out her money, the lawyer asks her how much she has and Chandini replies Rs. 1000. The lawyer says that nothing can be done with Rs. 1000 and you need Rs. 4000 minimum. Chandini is shocked at the amount and the lawyer says it is a big procedure to get bail and every step – from the stamp papers to getting the signatures requires money. He then tells Chandini that if they have money difficulty, he has a way. Getting bail only for 1 person is easier and much less costly. Chandini looks at Mukund and shakes her head saying she wants bail for both Beeji as well as Sunitha tai. The lawyer asks if she knows anybody influential who can give sifarish. Chandini says no and then Mukund suggests her boss. Chandini calls up Vishesh's mobile, but it is switched off. She then calls Amy and tells her that Beeji is in the police station now. Amy is shocked and asks her why, but Chandini says she will tell the matter later. She tells Amy that Vishesh's cell is switched off and Amy says that is because he has left for an urgent meeting to Singapore and must be in the plane by now. Chandini is frustrated. Amy tells her that they can leave a message on Jenny's desk and when Vishesh sir gets it, he will call back. But Chandini says it will be too late by then. Amy tells her she will come by as soon as her shift finishes and a frustrated Chandini puts down the phone. She suddenly thinks of something and tells the lawyer that she will go and arrange for money by the morning.
Loweena who is smoking a joint tells Manisha that even Roshan didn't give you the money right? That is because he spent all the money on drugs yesterday. Taking a drag from the cigarette, she says and it is mindblowing. She offers the joint to Manisha who refuses to take it. Akshay asks Manisha what she is planning to do with Rs. 50,000 and an irritated Manisha snaps back saying she will tear it, burn it, what does he care?
Chandini takes out Manisha's payal and tells Mukund to sell it so that they can get some money. Mukund says, but the payal belongs to your sister. But Chandini tells him that they came to Mumbai just to find Manisha. They had thought they will take Manisha back to Jalandhar as soon as possible. But such a thing does not seem to be happening quickly and they are facing all sorts of problems. She is strong enough to handle it, but her poor Beeji cannot take the strain. She says that if by selling her sister's payal, she can help Beeji out of trouble then she doesn't mind. Just then Vidya comes in worriedly and tells Chandini with tears in her eyes that Prem has still not come and she is very worried. Her saas does not know about the tiffin and if she does, she will be very angry with her. Chandini asks Mukund to get a rick and she tries to console Vidya. She tells her to call up Prem's office and Vidya says that she has already called 10 times, but nobody knows anything and even the guard is getting irritated at her. She tells Chandini that she doesn't even know the mobile numbers of any of Prem's friends. Chandini assures her that everything will be fine and tells Vidya to pray to Matharani.
Mukund is walking to get the rick when he suddenly stops short on seeing Prem and exclaims 'Prem'. Prem asks Mukund why he is so surprised to see him. Vidya and Chandini also come out and both are very happy on seeing Prem. Vidya tells Chandini that Matharani's aashirwaad has worked and in sheer happiness she goes and hugs Prem. Prem then tells Chandini that her Beeji's chole was amazing and everybody in his office loved it. He says that he wants more of her food. Chandini then tells Vidya that everybody in Prem's office ate Beeji's food and are fine which means that the children's food poisoning was caused by some other source. She tells Vidya that only she can save her Beeji by giving a statement to the police. Vidya remains silent and a worried Chandini asks her what is the matter. Vidya with her head hanging down says, that you know I cannot give such a statement. Chandini is shocked and asks why? Just then Tulsi ( Vidya's saas ) says because bahus of respectable families don't go to police stations to give statements. She berates Vidya for not telling her that she gave Prem Beeji's food in which zahar was mixed. Chandini pleads with her, but she refuses to listen and goes inside. Vidya is turning to go inside when Chandini implores her to give the statement. But a silent Vidya just goes inside the house with Prem ( who is having a guilty look in her face ) following her. Chandini is left standing helplessly.

Feb. 9 by Viduraju
Amy is speaking to Chandini ( the lawyer and Mukund are also present ) over the phone and tells her that Vishesh has already got her message and is trying the top police inspector's number, but nobody is picking up the phone. Chandini becomes frustrated. Amy tells her not to worry and says that she will come over as soon as their shift is over.
A worried Chandini puts down the phone and says that this means she cannot free her Beeji now. The lawyer says that anyway till morning we can't do anything. Chandini with tears in her eyes says that her Beeji is very unwell and if she spends the whole night in the jail, her situation will get even worse.
Akshay and Loweena are lying in the room ( Manisha has gone out somewhere ) and Loweena asks Akshay why he didn't help Manisha when he had money with him. Akshay tries to deny it, but Loweena takes out a wad of money from his bag and asks him what this is. Akshay snatches the money from her and tells her that his brother has sent it to him. It is his money and his needs are very important. Loweena says that Manisha's problem is even more important than yours, but Akshay impatiently reminds her that this money is for their most important need and that is drugs. Loweena just flops back onto the bed. Akshay asks her for a cup of coffee and Loweena asks him to help her. Both head for the kitchen unaware that Manisha has been stealthily listening to the whole conversation. She sits on the bed and remembers Chandini's tearful face pleading with the police not to take her Beeji. She goes to Akshay's bag, takes out the money with a guilty expression on her face and then suddenly puts it back because she hears a noise. Akshay and Loweena come back to the room and Akshay gives Manisha a cup of coffee telling her that she should drink the coffee and smoke a joint later and then she will forget all her troubles.
Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are sitting dejectedly inside the cell and Beeji is trying to warm herself from the cold. Suddenly someone catches hold of her hand and she looks up to find Chandini. Chandini with tears in her eyes asks Beeji if her joints ache a lot and says she is bebas as she can't do anyhthig to help. But Beeji putting up a brave expression says that it is just because of old age. Sunitha massaged her feet so nicely, she has got strength in her legs again and now she feels like dancing Bhangra in front of all these people! Chandini takes her leave and bursts into tears outside the cells. The senior inspector looks at her and tells her that he is sorry for the pain she must be feeling, bu he is helpless as his hands are bound by the law. He slyly suggests to Chandini that she is not trying harder and she should concentrate her efforts in one direction only ( No doubt he is expecting some sort of rishwath ). Chandini thinks for sometime and tells the inspector that he is absolutely right. She tells Mukund that they will go to the hospital to meet the parents of the sick children and explain to them about the state of Beeji and Sunitha tai. Surely they will take pity on them and one or two will come and tell the police. They go from there and the irritated inspector thinks to himself that they didn't even understand what he was trying to say.
Chandini and Mukund go to the hospital but both stop short on seeing the children moaning in pain to their parents who are trying to comfor them. Chandini collapses in tears against a wall and asks Mukund as to how they can ask these people to leave their sick children and come with them to the police station. Just then they overhear a woman telling her sick boy that she will definitely take action against Sunitha Godbole and that old buddi. The nurse noticing Mukund tells the woman that it is Sunitha's son. The woman in anger comes upto Chandini and Mukund and tells them that if anything happens to her son, then she will kill Beeji and Mrs. Godbole with her own hands. Chandini crying tells the woman that her Beeji is totally innocent. Her Beeji is the sort of person who gets upset when she sees hurt and poor children so how can she hurt so many children knowingly by mixing impurities in the food. Another mother who is listening exclaims, khana! She tells Chandini that she sends homecooked food for her son and that after school, he along with other children went to a panipuri stand. Chandini is shocked and exclaims, Panipuri!
Manisha who is unable to sleep gets up. She looks at Akshay and Loweena who are fast asleep and then at Akshay's bag where the money is kept.
Chandini tells Mukund that all they have to do is to go to the police inspector and tell him that it is the panipuri vendor's fault that the children are hospitalized and not Beeji and therefore they will surely be freed. A vendor who is listening to them asks Chandini as to what world she lives in. He informs the two that the police had already caught the panipuri vendor yesterday evening, but they let him go because he gave them chai pani. Chandini is confused at the term and asks the vendor what he means. The vendor says that it means rokda or rishwath. Chandini is shocked to hear this and tells the vendor that she is her Beeji's granddaughter and she remember's her father's advice and moral values and she will do no such wrong deed.
Simultaneously Manisha takes the money from Akshay's bag and tells sorry to Akshay silently and that she is only doing this to free Beeji.
Chandini, the lawyer and Mukund are opposite to the chief inspector. The inspector pleads with the inspector to do something quick to release Beeji as they are having money difficulty. The police inspector tells them that his hands are bound by the law and he cannot do anything. Chandini tells him that everybody knows by now that it is the panipuri vendor's fault, but the inspector tells Chandini that an FIR has been lodged in Beeji and Sunitha's name and unless they arrange for the bail money, he is helpless. The lawyer tells Chandini that he put in maximum efforts, but all in vain and he can do no more to help them. Chandini sinks back to the chair and tells that, where are you Mini didi. If anything happens to Beeji, I will not be able to forgive you. Just then Amy comes in and asks Chandini if 'she' will be able to forgive herself if anything happened to Beeji. Chandini looks at her in surprise and Amy tells her that she is being very stubborn; here the whole system is like this. Without chai paani nothing can be done. And right now nothing matters more than Beeji's health. Kabir who has come along with Amy agrees to this and shows Chandini money saying that everybody at IC including Varun, Smitha and Kavitha have contributed money. Chandini thanks Kabir, but tells him she has no use for it as she can't go against her moral principles. Amy and Kabir try to make her understand and Chandini with tears in her eyes just leaves the station and goes outside.
Chandini leans against a post and says to herself that all the differences between good and bad are blurring. The same values which she was brought up with hang like chains around her legs. On one hand there are her principles and on the other hand is beeji whose is in deep trouble. Just then Amy and Kabir come up to her and Amy tells Chandini worriedly that Beeji is suffering a lot from joint pain and she really requires painkillers. Kabir offers to get the medicine and leaves. Chandini thinks to herself that if some money can help my Beeji get out of trouble, then I will forget my principles and do whatever I can to free her.
Chandini and Amy walk back into the police station, but the chief inspector is not there. They ask another police officer who tells them that the inspector has gone out and will return shortly. He asks the two to wait and they wait on a seat. Just then Vidya and Prem come in and Chandini is totally surprised to seem them. Vidya tells Chandini that she has come to give the statement to the police. Chandini in surprise exclaims, What?! Vidya tells her that it was Prem who made her realize what a wrong thing she was doing by not giving the statement. Amy tells Vidya that there is no need for her statement because anyway they have to give the police chai pani. But Chandini tells her that there is still need for Vidya's statement. Vidya made her realize how quickly she gave up the struggle so fast. She says that she will take Beeji out of jail, but without giving rishwath. Amy is shocked to hear this and reminds Chandini of how much pain Beeji is in. But Chandini tells her that Beeji will get even more pain if she comes to find out that Chandini disregarded her values. Just then the inspector comes in and tells Chandini that he letting her Beeji go and asks Chandini why didn't she tell him that she knows the DCP? ( I'm presuming that it is the work of Vishesh; he must have contacted the DCP ). Chandini is so happy on hearing this.
Beeji and Mrs. Godbole are sitting inside the cell when a lady police officer unlocks the cell and tells the two that they are free to go. Both smile at each other at relief and come out. A happy Mukund comes and hugs his mother and an ecstatic Chandini runs forward and throws herself on Beeji followed by the others who are all happy. This happy reunion is witnessed by Manisha who just arrives outside the station in a taxi. With tears in her Beeji, she sees Beeji and Chandini hugging each other with happy smiles on their faces. She can't take it anymore and runs towards them ( their backs are towards her ). She exclaims Beeji and both Chandini and Beeji turn around and they are absolutely SHOCKED to see Manisha in front of them. They look at each other in ecstatic surprise. Chandini exclaims, Mini didi!
