Part 1
RP sees the video and is furious. He takes the CD out, goes out of the room & yells for Vikrant. Both Vikrant & Chachi-sa are surprised, and Vikrant goes to her and asks her what's bothering him? She tells him RP has gone mad, but RP enters @ that moment & tells them that living w/ them would do that to anybody. He asks her to tell Vikrant to leave, and Vikrant leaves. He then gives her the CD, and asks her to see for herself what a blemish Vikrant is. He then leaves, completely pissed (It was really entertaining seeing RP pissed @ chachi-sa)
Jyoti enters Vikrant's room w/ his wedding outfit, and Vikrant scolds her. Jyoti is unfazed, and tells him that tomorrow is his wedding, and he is marrying Reshmi. Vikrant tells her she has gone mad, and asks her to leave w/ that outfit, or that he'll burn it. Jyoti tells him the moment is @ 8:30 and leaves. Vikrant's phone rings, & it's chachi-sa. He tells her that he'll murder Jyoti, but chachi-sa tells him that he can do nothing now - all his exploits are on that CD as a result of that sting operation.
Next morning, Kabir asks Jyoti that even if she succeeds in getting them married, what if Vikrant doesn't change? Jyoti tells him that once they are married, nobody can call Jeet illegitimate. In the main room, the haldi ceremony of Reshmi is being done by Asha, Bhavri & Jyoti.
RP is headed out, when Jyoti tells him to be back early for the wedding. Chachi-sa storms in & yells @ Jyoti asking her what the drama is downstairs? Jyoti tells her that it's her bahu's haldi. Chachi yells that she won't let this marriage happen. Jyoti asks her innocently what sort of a mom is she - her son is getting married, and she's talking about splitting the family? She asks RP to convince her, and leaves.
RP tells Chachi-sa that the situation being what it is, she's better off letting it happen. Chachi-sa threatens him again, and he warns her that if anything happens to him, her dreams for Vikrant would crash as well, since that sting operation results would be on TV for all to see. Chachi seethes in anger, and thinks to herself that she's about to transform the mood of the celebrations.
Part 2
That evening, @ the wedding, Raghu is telling the media people gathered there that the mayor is on his way. RP arrives, and tells them that he doesn't recall inviting them. The mediapeople tell him that Jyoti invited them 😆 and that it's his nephew's wedding. His phone rings, and the same person who called yesterday w/ the CD is on the phone. He warns RP that if Vikrant ain't married to Reshmi, then the video of his exploits would be telecast everywhere, and instead of votes, people would be throwing shoes his way. RP excuses himself.
In the kitchen, Mandira is making some sweets, and mixes some poison tonic w/ them. She then takes it to Reshmi, who's getting ready, and Reshmi hesitates to have it. Mandira tells Asha, who is also there, that maybe Reshmi doesn't want to take it from a servant. Asha tells her she'll feed it to Reshmi, and does. Mandira thinks that after a while, it'll take effect.
RP is in the room w/ Vikrant & Chachi-sa. He tells her that if this gets telecast, Vikrant will land in jail, while he can forget the elections. He tells Chachi to let the marriage happen if she still wants a future in politics for Vikrant. What to do w/ Reshmi, the baby & Jyoti she can think of later. He's outside w/ the media, and will wait for her. Chachi thinks to herself that Reshmi won't be able to take the pheres.
Part 3
Jyoti thanks RP for being on hand to bless the occasion. The purohit tells them that the moment has arrived, and Jyoti says she'll check on Reshmi. Just then, Reshmi comes down in a bridal dress w/ Asha & Bhavri. She takes her place, but looks quite sick & unhappy (maybe the poison?)
The priest calls for the groom, and just then, Vikrant, Chachi-sa & Mandira come down. He very reluctantly sits next to Reshmi (neither bride nor groom look happy) They then exchange garlands, and Jyoti then does the gaat-bandhan (ain't Asha supposed to do this?) Vikrant & Reshmi then take the pheres, and everyone is showering them w/ flowers (It was a sight watching a seething Chachi-sa throw flowers on them, while Vikrant looked like he was @ his funeral 🤣 ) Chachi-sa is pissed that the pheres were completed, but Mandira tells her the poison should take effect any moment now. Vikrant puts the mangal-sutra & sindoor on Reshmi, and the priest declares the wedding complete 😆
They then take the blessings of Chachi-sa & RP, and then pose for pictures. Bhavri interrupts them, gets the baby & gives it to Reshmi, so that Vikrant can pose w/ both wife & son for his wedding 😆 Just then, the poison starts taking effect, and Reshmi starts collapsing on Jyoti, so Kabir quickly takes the baby. Everybody is shocked, including RP, but Chachi-sa, Mandira & Vikrant are all smirking (unfortunately for all 3 of you, this is on live TV) RP looks @ Chachi-sa suspiciously and notices her smirk.
Comments
So Jyoti won this in a way she cannot lose. If Reshmi dies, since this is live, not only Vikrant, but even Chachi-sa are caught in the act. If she survives, she's the 4th bahu in the family, and has a waris as well.
While Jyoti's struggle to make the family habitable will continue, it's clear that so will Chachi-sa's plots to kill her & Reshmi. I hope Chachi-sa gets exposed for this & sent to jail. Dunno whether this story is better off w/ RP becoming CM or not.
