Update

Arjun drives back to Sukh Niwas - Salil quickly gets out (like a TRUE gentleman) from the passenger seat to open the door for Poorvi. Arohi looks on in admiration. As she turns to leave, she is unable to open her side of the door, Arjun initially watches her struggle, and then presses the button to unlock her door!

Arohi irritantly gets out of the car - thinking that her chosen name for him, "saddhu", is completely apt! She then moves towards his window to "Thank" him, but he in return tells her to be at work the following morning promptly at 9AM! She begins to argue her "3 days vacation" point, but he dismisses it, saying that just as he granted them, he now withdraws them! (He thinks to himself that if she is to spend her time "off" with him, she may as well then be at work!). Arohi and Poorvi head towards the house. And as Arjun reverses his car - his mom looks at him from the window.

Arohi and Poorvi enter the house - Arohi is about to complain (re: Arjun) when she realises that Badi-Ma has come ...and on cue, Badi-Ma appears at the top of the stairs. The girls go to meet her. Arohi demands to know her reason for not attending Poorvi's engagement, and then goes into *not-talking-mode*. Badi-Ma laughs, explaining that she has made malpoae to melt her resolve. Arohi heads towards the table and fights with Sur over them.

Badi-Ma turns her attention towards Poorvi and asks her about Salil. Poorvi explains that he's a nice person - Badi-Ma stops her, saying that that is not what she asked. Is she happy with this relationship? Poorvi, once again avoids answering the question by turning to make coffee. Arohi comes in demanding that Badi-Ma makes some more, becos they are almost finished! She agrees to do so in the morning. Sur says that she can continue to do so up until Poorvi's wedding, as she's staying with them until then! Badi-Ma then asks Arohi about her "saddhu" boss! Arohi says she has lots to tell her, but once they've had their coffee.

Badi-Ma and Arohi are sat drinking their coffee, when Arohi begins to relay ALL of Arjun's bad points! She wanders whether his mom ever pulled his ears for his bad ways - Badi-Ma interjects, saying that it's possible there wasn't anyone around. She then asks Arohi if there is ANY girl in the office who likes him. Arohi blankly refuses, and begins to rant on about his bad points all over again! 😆 Badi-Ma listens sadly, quietly wandering if it's possible that their (ie Arohi and Arjun's) hatred turns into love - esp as the more meaningful loves begin with hatred. (this is THE connecting-person! 😉😳😃)

The next morning, Arohi is hurriedly leaving the house when Badi-Ma stops her. She gives her a box of malpoaes and tells her to share them with ALL of her colleagues at work.

Arjun is moaning about Arohi (to himself!) when she appears with a wrapped-present. He asks her about it, and she explains that it's arrived for him. He tells her to not just leave it on his desk, but to open it. She does so and begins to laugh at it - it's an old photo of Arjun and Jaspreet in their pants, striking a muscling-pose. Arjun gets irritated and goes over to see it.

Arjun becomes even more agitated on seeing her laugh uncontrollably, and initially instructs her to get rid of the photo, and then decides against it. He tells her to leave the photo in his office as he will dispose of it himself. Arohi knowingly smiles and does as he has asked. As she leaves, Arjun tells her to have the slogan emailed to him, and to keep quiet about the picture and the "other" thing. Arohi turns towards him and asks "which thing" - and then "innocently" asks if it's his nickname "Punji" - he nods. Arjun then tries to explain that as boss, he would like people to know as little about his personal life as possible. Arohi just nods.

Arohi is trying to have the slogan emailed to Arjun's email id - but the person on the other side is unable to hear her well, she begins to spell out his name for them, when Arjun appers and overhears her saying -

"A" for arrogant;

"R" for rude;

"J" for jallad;

"U" for ugly; and

"N" for nakhjara! 👏

He leaves fuming. 😆

Siddharth comes into Arohi's office and suggests they take their lunch-break. She explains that she has brought malpoaes, but will have to share them with everyone as per Badi-Ma's instructions.

Arohi is distributing the malpoae to everyone, when Arjun appears and watches her. She sees him, and decides to offer them to him too, esp as Badi-Ma had told her to give them to "everyone". He takes one, and whilst eating more, he relays the "A - R - J - U - N" definition. Arohi is left speechless. He tells her that the malpoae were nicely made, she begins to explain she didn't make them, although she too is a good cook. Arjun cuts her short, saying that he won't be tested upon! He then tells her to return to her work and takes the container with the remaining malpoae with him! 😆😃

As Arohi is fuming, a girl (the one Arohi overheard at the reunion party) hurriedly runs past her and asks for Arjun's cabin - the receptionist points towards Arjun's office, but before he can say anything further she leaves. Siddharth comments that Arjun will not only throw her out of his office, but also Shimla for this. Arohi is left thinking.

In the meanwhile, Arjun rings down to reception, explaining that he's not to be disturbed as he's in a private-meeting - Arohi overhears this.

NO PRECAP
