Same end as yesterday... Tulsi looks shocked to see JRT on TV….
T: This….
She looks around and sees that all tiffins bear the label "JR THAKRAAL"…..
T: This Mr Thakraal is our client???
M: Yes, this is him…. You didn't get to meet him…
Tulsi suddenly breaks into this… MASSIVE, drugged smile…. Scary…
Tulsi keeps harping on about what a big man he is, why did Mihir call him "weird"…. Mihir explains the obsession with cats…. Tulsi says that what he does in his personal life is none of their business…. She expresses her confidence in Mihir…. With a huge fake smile. She's practically snarling in an attempt to show off the molars and pre molars. Scary.

Nakul comes into his room to find Sanjhi arranging flowers in his room… Arranging Flowers… Is there no end to this woman's talents??? She can sell GRIPE WATER and arrange flowers and other charitable functions effortlessly. By the way, this new Sanjhi's chipper attitude really annoys me…. She's the kind who wakes up and says "Hello Sun! Hello Clouds! Hello flowers! Hello birdies!" AAAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
N: What are you doing!?!?!?!!?
S: This room was kinda dull, so I'm brightening it up a little….
N: DID YOU ASK ME? Don't you think you should ask me before you do all this?!
S: What's there to ask? I see your face down every single day, I thought these flowers would brighten it up….
Nakul grabs the bunch of flowers and starts to move…
S: Are you going to throw them?!?!
N: No, I respect money too much to do that…. Go put these in the room of someone who likes them…..
S: Btw, I just wanted to remind you, my charity function is tonight…. Be sure to come… 8 o'clock….
N: I wont come…
S: Come on, it's for a good cause… Even if you have itttty bitty bit of heart, you'll come…. Thanks!
She starts to leave… She leans back in….
S: I'll be waiting for you…. (smiles and leaves)
N (muttering to self): Keep waiting… I wont come….
Yea yea, like we don't know you'll get there eventually and put that sunshine back on her face…. Ick…. Someone tone down that girl's happy pill dosage!

Baa is reading a holy book to Tulsi and KT…. About how you should be wary of your friends, more than your enemies… Prajakta comes there and says that some TV channel wants to interview Tulsi about the new business…. Tulsi is reluctant but Prajakta, Baa and KT persuade her…. Daksha comes there, eavesdropping…. She makes the excuse of coming to call Prajakta and hurredly leaves…
Baa smiles and says this is what she means about keeping "friends closer" as they may be more dangerous to us…. Tulsi smiles wisely….

Sanjhi calls up Archita and asks her why she isn't at the function yet… Archita says she doesn't feel like coming… Sanjhi persuades her Archita agrees to come… Abhir hears half the conversation in hiding and wonders where Archita is going so late…
So late? It's like 7 pm… Since when is that LATE?

Sanjhi is making arrangements in the hall when Bhoomi, Manthan, Eklavya and KT come… he's happy to see them… Bhoomi and Manthan are hugely disappoingted that this isn't some "huge rave bash" like the ones they're used to going to… Eklavya too makes snide remarks about how this isn't the big important function he thought it would be… He says he has a meeting and starts to kleave when KT stubbornly says that she will stay here and be with Sanjhi…. Eklavya sees Lakshya making his way through the crowd and quickly says that he will stay too….
Mihir, Tulsi et all make entries… Manthan and Bhoomi continue to make "down market, tacky" remarks…… And they start to leave when the three witches appear and tell them to stay as this will be a night to remember….
Ah, those smug grins…. What have you planned this time, oh ladies of doom and disaster?
Sanjhi tells everyone to change into their costumes for the garba competitions and everyone leaves… She disappointedly thinks that Nakul didn't come….
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ *^*^*^*^*^*^*
Nakul is standing at the bus stop…. Someone behind him is listening to the radio and it announces the time to be 8 o'clock…. Nakul hears Sanjhi's voice in his head telling him to be there by eight….
The bus comes.. Nakul is about to get in when this girl barrels past him and rushes into the bus… Nakul angrily taps her on the back and is stunned when she turns and it's Sanjhi… She smiles and asks "So.. You don't have even a little bit of heart…. I told you that it was for a good cause…" Nakul stutters as to how she's here, and she replies she would have to come if he wasn't so stubborn…. Suddenly, she disappears and Nakul is left staring at the conductor…. He removes that one foot he had on the bus and the bus leaves, Nakul stands there confused and irritated.
I would be irritated too, if SANJHI was the voice in my head. Aaaah, the tried and tested "you know you're in love when you see the person everywhere…" formula… Haven't they tired of that one yet?

Daksha barrels into the three bahus' room, where she receives a chilly reception form them… She tries to convince them that she's on their side… Tanya says that if she wants them to believe that she's on their side, she'll have to do something, and whispers in her ear.. Daksha readily agrees and leaves. Three witches rant on and on about the humiliation that Tulsi has given them….
Boring.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ *^*^*^*^*^*^*
Daksha comes into a room where three saris are laid out… She remarks to herself about how Prajakta, KT and Tulsi will get it now and sprinkles a liberal dose of itching powder in all three saris…..
She comes out of the room to find Prajakta standing there, staring at her suspiciously…. Daksha says she just came to check if her costumes were there, but they weren't and hurriedly leaves…. Prajakta makes a "Ha! Like I would believe you face…" KT comes there and both make the same face, as they know Daksha is upto something….
The three witches come up the stairs asking what their room no is… Tripti says its #9…. Prajakta and KT smile to each other like the Grinch who stole Christmas…. I love that scene when the Grinch starts grinning maliciously. Tee hee. All those green folds on his face and….
Ok, moving on….
So KT and Prajakta notice that their room was #6, so they quickly turn the 6 upside down to make it a 9 and hide.. .Three bahus make their way into that room and pick up their saris… KT and Prajakta high five each other…..
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ *^*^*^*^*^*^*
Everyone all dressed up like they fell outta the "Garba 2007" catalogue…. PPl dancing to ghaati music….
Manthan in a DIRTY YELLOW GREEN KURTA… EEEEEE!!!!!! Lakshya looks on as Prajakta explains something to him earnestly….
Daksha informs the bahus that the work has been done…. The three smile their broad smug grins…
Five minutes later, Daksha is perplexed to see no reaction from Tulsi and Co… Meanwhile, Tripti discreetly itches at her arm…. Tee hee…. Soon, Tanya and Damini start itching at themselves too… Tulsi cant stop staring… Khee khee.
Daksha looks shocked…. Tulsi starts laughing as Prajakta, Lakshya, Archita and KT stare in bemusement….
Joydeep and Himmat join in the giggling. Hee hee.
The judges start noticing the three itching up a storm…. They remark about what a novel new dance form this is. Figures that Sanjhi would get idiot savant judges who cant tell the difference between dance and almost tearing their flesh off their bones….
Lakshya laughs as Prajakta looks on innocently… Daksha suspects Prajakta…
All three women leave, itching at themselves like flea ridden dogs as Manthan and Bhoomi look disgusted and perplexed at their mother's behaviour….
The MC announces that the final round of Garba will be b/w the Virani group and the Mehta group (you mean Ganga's company??) Manthan and Bhoomi look disgusted while Tulsi bares all her teeth again in a snarl-like grin….
Manthan: This is bloody nonsense!!! Lets leave!
Sanjhi: You're leaving???
M: THIS IS BORING!!!
S: It's just the final! Please stay….
Eklavya comes in: But anyway, there's one person short in our team, how can we take part??
S: (thinks sadly) So you didn't come after all, Nakul….
Suddenly Sanjhi smiles again, as do all the others as they see Nakul come in….
Sanjhi happily says that now it's a complete team and runs to Nakul happily and tells him that she's so glad he came… he snidely tells her that he missed his bus that that's why he came here, to do some timepass… He rudely asks her why she's grinning so hard… She just replies "nothing"….
Nakul asks what is happening here and she replies it's a Garba Contest and he's dancing with his family…. Nakul says "no" in disbelief as she pulls him away by the hand….
Sanjhi pulls him to the entire family…. Nakul angrily says he wont dance with Manthan… Manthan and him start to get into a fight…. Archita says she wont dance with Bhoomi, to which Bhoomi rolls her eyes…. Sanjhi asks cant they just for once, dance with their own brothers and sisters…
I half expected her to start singing "Where is the Love?" halfway through that impassioned speech.
The three bahus appear in their own clothes and remark that they should just leave, as who knows where this money is going, the organisers may be keeping it for themselves, blah blah….
Tulsi shuts her up by saying that all they could notice was how bad the arrangements were, how downmarket the location is, blah blah….
Lol, she just insulted ALL of Sanjhi's hard work. Tee hee…
Tulsi continues that Do they even know why they're here? Why Sanjhi organised such an event??
She will tell them… She points to some child and says – That child who is making everyone laugh is crying inside, as she is battling cancer….
OK MIRACLE TIME. Three bahus expressions soften and they look guilty. Bhoomi looks all misty eyes. Manthan looks guilty. Nakul looks ashamed.
Tulsi looks all teary. The End.
No, really, the end. I know, it's abrupt. It really is the end. I did stare at the screen for two whole minutes till Kayamath started, to convince myself that that was in fact, the ending.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ *^*^*^*^*^*^*
Comments: What the hell was with the end….?!?!?! Everyone getting all teary eyed at the thought of a cancer-ridden child??? I think Tulsi went through far more… I didn't see any empathy there…. Freaks.
Advice: Watch a rerun of Diwali Dhamaka instead of this "bheegi billi" (As you can see, I'm missing the cats…. Tee hee!!!!😆)
Overall Rating: 4/10
