Episode begins with Nirmala and Jitisha sitting in the latter's room, discussing the current state of affairs…Nirmala bursts into tears as she expresses just how mistaken she was about Pari and Saumya…😊she says to an equally emotional, though not weepy, Jitisha, that Pari and Saumya are really good people…and Pari – she's nothing short of Nirmala's guardian angel…😃see how she never disclosed the events of that fateful night when she caught Nirmala red-handed outside in the garden…she never uttered a word to anybody…if she had, Dadaji would have immediately thrown them out of the house, so despicable was her act…but Pari and Saumya kept the secret, and never let it leak to a single soul…Lord bless them…😳...but just as she's wiping her tears, her face turns a deathly white, as she looks up to find Sanjay standing at the door…for the first time in all these months, he actually manages to look stern…and Nirmala, who's otherwise used to leading him around like her pet dog, looks pale with fear…he comes up to them and quietly asks them what secret of hers is being so loyally guarded by Pari…Nirmala's expression turns a combination of immense guilt and sadness…
Downstairs, Aditya and Ishana finally arrive for Rakhi, and are greeted with warm hugs from both their respective siblings…just then, Ishana notices a rakhi already tied on Saumya's wrist…she's a little puzzled, and asks him where that came from, considering the fact that she's only just arrived…who's already tied a rakhi to him? Saumya smiles and looks at Pari…then he turns around and calls out – "Jitisha…!"😊 and immediately the figure of Jitisha materializes in front of Ishana…Ishana can't believe her eyes, but is so delighted and so gratified by this gesture that when Jitisha apologises for tying the rakhi to Saumya bhaiya before her this time, she actually smiles and says that she is, in fact, quite thankful to her, that she didn't let Saumya bahiya's wrist stay empty and devoid of sisterly love until the time she finally arrived with Aditya…😊Jitisha smiles, and hugs Ishana warmly…she then takes her leave, but Saumya stops her gently, and produces an envelope out of his pocket as a token for her…she refuses to take it, saying that he has already filled her world with so much love and happiness that she could never bring herself to accept yet another gift from him…but he insists, and when she still doesn't take it, Dadaji intervenes, urging her to take it as a symbol of their reborn relationship of love…she accepts it, and again begins to leave, but Saumya stops her again and hands her another gift…she accepts this gladly too, and finally leaves after bidding them all an affectionate and emotional goodbye…😳
Once Jitisha's left, Ishana turns to Saumya and Pari and says that after a long time, she's begiining to see genuine warmth seeping back into this family…and this is all because of Pari…😊she thanks her, and says that she's so happy today with this gift of love she's just unexpectedly received, that she doesn't mind if Saumya doesn't give her a gift this time…Pari's face lights up mischieviously, and she looks at Saumya saying – "achha? Theek hai phir…Saumya woh jo…diamond set…hai na? Haan, who aap…" 😉and she points at herself and Saumya plays along, also grinning, and says – "haan haan…kyon nahin Pari…who tum hi rakh lo…Ishana ko to gift nahin chahiye na…" 😆and Ishana screams that no, no…!! this is her right after all…he'll have to give whatever it is, to her, no matter what…all of them laugh with glee, and the ceremony begins…while Pari ties the rakhi to Aditya and Ishana to Saumya, Dadaji takes out a camera and begins capturing these moments on film so that they may live on forevermore…😊Kamya also quietly walks into the scene and for once doesn't look sour, for a change…once the ceremony is over, Pari takes the camera from Dadaji and begins clicking the snaps herself, asking him to join the group…however, as she's clicking the pictures, her eyesight begins to blur, and she begins to lose her balance somewhat…she struggles on until she can't handle it anymore, and collapses, unconscious, onto the sofa…😕everybody, even Kamya, is thunderstruck…Saumya yells – "PARI…!" and rushes towards her…he sits beside her and caresses her face while frantically asking Dadaji to call the doctor…everyone tries to revive her, worried sick about her, while Dadaji does as he's told and summons the doctor…
A while later, Pari's lying on the bed in her room, and the doctor is examining her while Saumya stands behind her, looking pale with concern…once the doctor's done, she smiles meaningfully, and I think it's pretty obvious what's happened…😉heeee….Saumya – still worried, poor thing – asks her what's wrong, and if Pari's okay…the doctor smiles and says that Pari's fine, and congratulations, coz she's not only perfectly all right, but is also pregnant…!!!😃 😃😃Saumya's face splits into the widest smile I have seen on it yet, and he's totally lost for words…😳😳😳he just keeps looking and beaming at Pari…you could light up a dark room with that kind of glow…😆hehe…soooo cute…!!😳 The doctor tells him to call everybody in now…he calls out to everyone, and they ask the doctor the same thing as soon as they enter…the doctor gives them the good, no - great, news, and all their faces light up at once…even Kamya's face begins to glow, and she shows signs of a sure smile, and rushes forward in visible delight, but stops herself just before she reaches Pari…😉but in contrast to what usually happens, her face doesn't turn sour at all…she may not allow herself a public display of emotion for someone she's pledged to despise in front of all, but private, almost hidden delight is quite another thing…😊and that is precisely what shows on her face…she's silent, and yet – however much she may hate to admit it - inexpressibly happy…😃Dadaji says that this means that he's – but Sanjay completes his sentence, saying – "Par-Dada ban gaye hain…!" and he's as joyous as he ever could be…so joyous that he walks over to the music system and prompty plays a song and actually begins dancing…!😆 Pretty soon, everyone joins him…Saumya carefully helps Pari get up and come to the temporary dance-floor, and they all dance merrily around her, while she stands in the midst of all this joy, blushing and coy…😳everyone gives her their blessings, Saumya hugs her despite everybody there, and he actually pulls Kamya into the dance too…
Ishana gets out of the circle and dials Danima's number…Danima picks up, and is greeted by a cheery – "hi Par-Danima…!!" Danima looks quite befuddled for a few moments, but then it hits her, and her expression transforms at once into one of incredulous delight…😃she repeats Ishana's words as though she still can't believe it, but Ishana confirms the news, and hands the phone to Pari…Danima blesses Pari and says that she's yearning to meet her…Pari says that what, then, is she waiting for ? she's waiting for her with all her heart too…Danima promises to come, and cuts the call…Ishana goes back into the circle of merriment…Pari stays where she is, and for some reason a dull sadness settles on her face…she motions silently to Aditya to come out…he comes upto her, and she says that she wants to ask him for something…he says that he'll give her whatever she asks for, she just needs to say it for it to be done…she smiles and says something we aren't allowed to be a part of, given only dramatic background music for respite…😕
A while later, Aditya and Ishana are in the car, still rejoicing over this pleasant news, when Ishana notices that Aditya's driven her to a hotel instead of home…😕she begs him to leave his office work behind for once, coz it's a holiday and such an unexpectedly happy one at that…but Aditya says that it's not for his work that he's brought her here…he's brought her to this hotel for something not he, but she has to do…because it is she who has to go and meet Sameer…at the mention of this name, Ishana's features, which were a moment ago relaxed in blissful satisfaction, instantly harden into an expression of outrage…she refuses point blank to even see the face of that mad old dingbat…😡how could Aditya even think that she would do something as low and as ridiculous as the task he has just put to her, especially after that public humiliation Sameer subjected him to…??! Aditya, however, seems like he was expecting this kind of an outburst at this proposal, and calmly tells her that this is not the time for petty grudges…Sameer's weakness lies in his temper and hot-headedness, and if Ishana were to be as angry as he usually is, then what is the difference between her and him?... You know, if I were Ishana, I would have flown at Aditya for being pigheaded, not to mention ridiculous enough to compare me with such a slimeball…🤢but anyway…Ishana just looks taken aback…Aditya goes on to add that they must now learn from Pari, who, by living to revive these relationships, has actually breathed life into them…and proof of that lies in the second rakhi now decorating Saumya's wrist…Ishana softens a bit, and decides to go and tie a rakhi to Sameer, and Aditya hands her the thali and everything…😊
Sameer's in his room chatting with one of his girlfriends when he hears a knock on the door – now shut, for a change – and seems thunderstruck when he beholds Ishana entering with a rakhi thali - just about the lst thing on the planet he expected to see…😕he cuts the call and asks her what on earth she thinks she's doing…she sets down the thali, sits down and begins to light the diya in it…she smiles calmly, and just says that she's extremely happy today…Sameer stares at her as though 'happy' were a term he had heard for the first time in his life…he looks dumbfounded, in short…she ploughs on, saying that this is the auspicious day of rakhi, and today she has come to him with all the love a sister could have for a brother, to tie him a rakhi, and strengthen this otherwise fading bond…he still looks confused…a case of severe low IQ, I tell you…she also tells him that despite the insults hurled at him, it is infact Aditya who's urged her to come here…and she gets up, looks at him and says – today, will you let me give you my love, and let me tie you a rakhi, bhaiya?😳 Sameer looks at her extremely suspiciously, but eventually gets up, and grudgingly stretches out his hand…she smiles gleefully, and completes the ceremony, and he's patient enough to go through the whole mumbo-jumbo of it, including the teeka and aarti…once she's done, he takes out his wallet…she tells him that she doesn't want anything…he says that he knows that the brother has to give the sister a gift once the rakhi is tied…he begins to take out some money, but she says that what he's saying is true…a gift is usually given, but this is not the gift she wants…if he so wants to give her a gift today, then the one thing he can do for her is return to Parashar house…not quite probable honey…and then she adds a supplementary to this already hugely taxing gift, and asks him to accept Saumya and Pari as his own…now that's downright impossible, woman…at least as of now, anyway…and Sameer suddenly seems to comprehend this mystery of unexpected display of love, saying that now he fully understands this sisterly-love drama…😡he says – why don't you just tell me straight on my face that Saumya has sent you here, to impress upon me how wrong I am, and how angelically right he and especially his wife, are…I hate this sort of emotional blackmail Ishana…"…the episode ends with Ishana's sad expression, with tears in her eyes…
Hey guys…overall a very happy episode, literally…😃I'm soooo happy at Pari's newfound delight, along with everyone else's…😃heck, even Kamya looked like she considered it good news, and that is saying something…😛I just wish they'd given Saumya and Pari a private moment to savour their limitless joy…😳I hope they'll give them that in the days to come…😊let's see what lies in store ahead…!😃
