Pavitra Rishta Written Update 22nd October 2013-Completed

Pranav insists he has told her so many times hes fine, hes very strong!

Prashant praises Pranav that hes such good acting, he can work on stage plays.

Ankita overhears and frowns, she asks Prashant if all that was a drama?

Prashant admits. Pranav tells her it was Dada's idea, what a great idea it was, even big goons were made fools of!

Prashant says, Yes, Tayi, it was all drama, I will tell u something which will make u very happy! Look, here are the house papers, now we got back our house.

He takes out the papers from Pranav's clothes and gives it to Ankita, who looks at it and says, But this..

Prashant explains to her how Pranav sneaked into the dicky of the car, and went to Ghanshyam's den and stole the house papers and went back to hide in the dicky. Tayi, we saved our house and ourselves too!

Mansi comes and joins in, What a plan it was naa? At first I was scared and didn't know what was happening but our Pranav went into that car so bravely, great job, Pranu! And Prashant had reassured me that whatever happens, Pranav wont be hurt! And that is what happened!

Prashant hugs Ankita as asks, Tayi tell me how was the plan?

Ankita pushes him away in anger, Pranav protests, Arey Tayi! Ankita tells him to shut up, she will talk to him later!

She blasts Prashant, pushing at his chest, What do u think of urself? You will teach ur brothers and sisters to steal? You will lie to the police? You say big words all the time that you will do this, and that, u know ur responsibilities! Is this how u fulfil ur responsibilities? On one hand is that father who makes his daughter beg and on the other hand you are teaching ur brother to steal? What difference is there between you two then?

Prashant protests, There is a difference! Our father is trying to sell this house and Im trying to save it! Yes I lied but Im not sorry that I lied! Even now I seem wrong to you? Then go and tell them I stole the house papers! We deceived them to get back our own house! And what will they do? Throw us out of the house naa! And that father of ours, he will throw us out of the house, he will probably sell these two kids (he holds Pranav and Sonu) I had to do this because our father is a drunkard, a thief, hes a complete scoundrel! Those kids whose fathers are like this have to lie and steal. Hes not only useless, hes a disgusting person!

Ankita gets mad, One second! What are u saying in front of these kids? Are u aware of that? Have u gone mad?

Prashant yells back, These kids know everything! And Tayi, since when do u find the truth bitter? This is the truth and u or I don't have the power to change this truth! Because we are helpless! Tayi, have u forgotten how our childhood was spent? Your childhood was lost in taking responsibilities and my days of studying and playing was spent in struggling with my destiny! Tayi, if u weren't there, then I wouldn't be here and who would look after these kids ? Our father's two wives, yours, mine and Mansi's Ayi, and these two kids' Ayi...our mother died after suffering all her life but these kids' mother left them to their fate! But I don't blame her, because our father is not human enough that anybody can live with him! If even now u feel Im wrong, then go and give back those papers! Get those goons out of jail and put me in Jail!

Ankita leaves the house, Prashant follows her asking Tayi where are you going? He tells Mansi to look after the two kids!

Ghanshyam's bar

He is standing outside his bar talking to someone on his mobile, hes saying, hes not going to forgive that Raghu Mhatre! Because of him, the police arrested my men! I want Raghu Mhatre's house papers!

Ankita goes and gives him the papers, Prashant behind her.

Ankita says, here are the house papers, u were looking for these?

Ghanshyam says, But how did u get these papers?

Ankita says, my brother stole these from under ur nose!

Ghanshayam says, I knew that these kids must have done something! Like father, like children..

Ankita says, One second! Don't u dare to say a word abt my brothers and sisters! You threw the first stone, my siblings just gave a fitting reply! Now tell me do u want these papers or not?

Ghanshyam says of course he wants them! Ankita tells them she wants him to do something before that, either make the papers in her name or tear them up, then the accounts will be settled!

Ghanshyam says, are u mad? Why would I tear up the papers or make them in ur name?

Ankita says, You have 2 reasons to do that, one is that there is a kidnapping case against you, and if this news leaks out then u will be finished, this bar of urs will close down, you will lose ur licence, and u may have to go to jail too! Second thing, our father loaned 70,000 from you but the price of that house is 10 Lakh rupees! If I take this to court even then we will only win! Because nobody can throw another person from her own house for only 70,000 rupees! You got that? So now what do u want to do?

Ghanshyam says, You turned out even more cunning than ur father! Youre very clever!

Ankita smiles, No Im not that clever but to let go of my 10 Lakh worth house for 70,000, Im not that stupid either!

Ghanshyam says, Then go and tell ur father to return my money!

Ankita says, I will return ur money but I need 70 days for that! I will give u 70,000 in 70 days! Because I know what kind of guy u are and what are ur intentions! And yes, our father had made mistakes, but that didn't mean u shd treat us brother and sisters like this! In future, don't even look at my family! Got it?

Ghanshayam tells her, Alright go! You got back ur house! But remember ur promise! I want that 70,000 in 70 days! I want it means I want it! Remember!

Ankita and Prashant leave with the house papers!

*******************************************************************

Arjun's car pulls up at the chawl.

Arjun gets out and asks a guy on the road, where does Ankita live?

The guy points out to Ankita's house and says in that Kholi...

Arjun goes up to the door and rings the bell. Mansi opens the door. He asks if Ankita lives there?

Mansi says, Yes, she lives here. Who are you?

Arjun tells her he needs to talk to Ankita and if she can call her?

Mansi tells him Ankita is not at home and if he tells his name she will tell her sister when she comes home.

Arjun tells her that Its okay, he will come later. Mansi says, but tell me ur name...but Arjun leaves.

Soham is at the Paan shop, drunkenly complaining that these kids of today, don't even care for their dad, they throw him out!

Arjun stops a guy on the street and asks if he lives there, the guy says he lives in a kholi right opposite.

Arjun asks him abt Ankita, how long she has been living there?

The guy thinks hard, then he notices Soham at the paan shop. He tells Arjun there is Ankita's father at the paan shop. Arjun turns and looks at Soham whose back is turned to him.

Arjun is going towards Soham but the other guy stops him, saying don't even talk to Ankita's father, hes very rude and rough, doesn't know how to talk properly, hes very uncouth and Dehati! He can sell his kids also for money! Such cute and nice kids, but because of him they are literally starving! They have to hide every paisa from him as hes a number one drunkard! He snatches the food money from his kids to buy liquor! That daughter of his, Ankita, shes a golden girl, very good qualities and values she has...its because of her the family is surviving, otherwise this drunkard father is a good for nothing! May God give such nice children to everyone! But not such a father!

Arjun thanks the man and turns around but by then Soham has fallen face down on the ground in front of the paan shop. Arjun goes near the shop and looks at the man lying on the ground, he asks the paan shop owner abt him, the paan shop guy tells him, Let him be, Saab, this is his daily routine! Let him be!

Prashant gets up, lifts Sonu up and yells, Arey Sonu, Pranu, Mansi, we got our house back!

Everyone is rejoicing! Ankita looks serious as she gets her accounts book and writes down the impending payments of 70,000

Prashant asks her if she really intends to return Ghanshyam the money?

Ankita says Yes, she wil return his money too! Not just him, but all these people from whom we loaned money!

Sonu says, Tayi, now everything will be alright, u got a job naa?

Ankita's smile fades. Mansi suddenly says, Oh Yes Tayi, I forgot to tell you! Today someone came to meet you! He just left saying he will be back! Tayi, he looked very rich, he was in a suit and all.

Ankita asks if the man said anything, Mansi tells her he didn't say anything else.

Shashank enters the house, all kids greet him happily as always! He lifts Sonu up and kisses her cheek.

Ankita greets him, he tells her hes not talking to her, so much happened and she didn't bother to inform him? Its good that Mansi told him everything.

Ankita tells him she wanted to tell him but everything happened so fast she didn't get a chance to tell him! She apologizes to him and says now everything is sorted!

Pranav comes and tells Shashank that hes the hero of this story, he hit a sixer!

Mansi asks Shashank to rest as he has just arrived. But he carries Pranav asking him what happened. Pranav tells him the whole story of fake kidnapping while all the others listen and laugh. Even Ankita is smiling, then she gets serious as she remembers Raunaq firing her from her job at the party!

Shashank notices her worried face and comes to sit with her. He asks her what was the matter and why was she so tense?

Ankita smiles and tells him theres no tension and she was alright!

Shanky doesn't believe her, he says don't lie to me, tell me whats the matter/

Later on at night, Anki standing on the balcony in her night shirt.

Shashank has heard the whole story from her and is fuming, I cant believe it! AK Telecom is such a big company and they behave with their staff like this? NO, I wont leave them! I will write such an article against them...

Ankita says, Shashank please! I don't want all that!

Shanky asks, But why Ankita, someone must stand up against this! Or else tomorrow again some other girl will face the same thing...

Anki says she knows that, she understands but her priorities are something else right now! She need a job, at any cost! Shahsank do u know I haven't told anyone at home that I lost my job! Everyone thinks that tomorrow I will return to work. On the 1^st day of next month all of them will expect me to get my first salary. God knows what plans they have made, I don't know what to tell them! From where will I get another job? Shashank I know my kids wont tell me even if theyre suffering. But its my responsibility to fulfil their dreams, their needs. I cannot back out of my responsibilities! I just need a job, I need a job!

Shashank consoles her, that she will get a job! Shes so honest, smart and intelligent, hard working that companies will call her from home and give her a job!

Ankita asks him tearfully if hes joking. He says hes not joking. Hes telling the truth! He has seen very few people with the honesty and sincerity that she has! He feels that she deserves a good job and she wil get it! And he will be with her, he will help her. If she wants nobody in the house shd know this, then nobody will know!

He says, Trust me! There are so many companies in Mumbai, she can apply everywhere and she will get a job! You are not that bad, are you?

He laughs. Ankita also has to smile. He asks her if shes alright, he tells her to relax and that she will get a job! She nods and smiles.

**************************************************************************

Next scene: Arjun's office next morning

Office Assistant is telling Arjun that in last few days, 20 female employees have resigned from their jobs! And there is one thing common in all these resignations that they were having personal problems.

Sir, I had given this report to you yesterday itself.

Arjun puts down his coffee cup and says, I have read ur report! We have to get to the bottom of this matter. I fail to understand...yesterday there was another girl who was fired from this office, what was her name?

His assistant says, Ankita...Ankita Mhatre!

Arjun says, Ankita Mhatre! And why was she fired?

Assistant says, she was accused of stealing!

Arjun wonders, Stealing? But as far as I know abt her, shes a very poor girl, she came here to work as a steno...I don't get it why a girl for whom her job is so important, shes working as a steno in the office, why would she steal?

Assistant says, Why wont she steal? Need for money makes anyone steal. She stole and then she made up a nice story to prove herself innocent! Sir, these poor folks are like this only!

Arjun says, No...no that's wrong! Ur being judgemental for no reason! Just because a girl is poor doesn't mean that shes a thief! And as far as I know abt that girl, she has a certain dignified integrity! I don't think she will be a petty thief! Maybe Im wrong but...did u try to get to the bottom of this matter?

Assistant says, No Sir...Arjun tells him, so its just ur assumption, so the real matter can be something else, right? I need to know everything abt that girl, where she lives, what she does everything! I think shes being framed! And apart from her, I need to meet all of the other girls who have quit their jobs. One by one! Okay?

Assistant says, But Sir, what will be the use of talking to those girls? You will talk to the Junior staff?

Arjun asks, So? Mr. Anubhav, even if they are junior or senior, they are all employees of our company. So they are our responsibility! And if so many girls are quitting our company due to personal reasons or whatever, there must be some reason behind that which concerns our company. We have to find out that loophole. So please go and arrange for these meetings.

Anubhav agrees. Arjun takes his coffee and tells Anubhav to do the needful as soon as possible.

**********************************************************************

Ankita is preparing the kids to go to school. She packs Sonu's school bag and tells her she has to get number one rank this time!

Pranav comes out in his uniform, playing yoyo...she scolds him is this the time to play yoyo and to bring his bag from inside.

Prashant brings his brother's bag, saying he has packed it and she shd go to school fast!

Pranav says he don't want to go to school, its very boring in school!

prashant asks, do you want to become like your father.

Ankita explains to Pranav that good boys shd go to school because they teach so mnay good things in school. They give education, they teach sports, then he will grow up and he have to take care of her when she gets old naa?

Pranav nods and ankita packs his tiffin in his bag.

Mansi says she will drop Pranav and Sonu on the way to the station as the school is on the way. Ankita kisses all her siblings and they leave.

Prashant says he has prepared breakfast for her and asks her to go to office. Ankita protests that heh didn't have to do all that! But Prashant gives her tiffin for work. Ankita gets moves that he did all that for her...she gets sad that she lost her job but cannot tell them

She takes her tiffin, and bag and leaves the house, pretending to go to work.

Outside: Shashank is telling his friend at work to manage without him and he will help him back when the time comes. He has finished the story he was supposed to do and he will mail it to the Boss at night.

Ankita comes and they greet each other, he asks her if she took copies of her CV with her and she says she did. He asks her if she told anybody at home, she says no.

Shashank says,Okay lets go, we will go to apply for your job. Lets go quickly and get a job!

Anki asks him and what abt ur work? He says my work is to get a job for you! Until I do that I wont get peace!

Ankita sits on his bike and they leave. Soham observes them from behind a pillar with an evil look.

PRECAP:

Arjun gives a paper to Raunaq and he asks whose resignation is this?

Arjun says, Its YOU! Your resignation!

Raunaq swivels in his chair and smiles with nasty arrogance, You are firing me? Do u know who I am? I am 50 percent owner of this company!
