Abha sends Rohit to bring back Shradhya
The scene starts @ Rohit's place (after a long break, they're back) Rohit comes to his dad & his dad complains that he's dragging the Deshmukh name thru the mud 😆 (Abha, I wonder where he got that from?) Rohit asks him what did he do now, and Abha tells him that he did nothing 😆 (So now you're noticing?) Abha complains that under the pretext of Sandhya's accident, Shradhya has gone to Mumbai and there's no trace of her. Rohit tells him that it was Abha who wanted her not to return except w/o the Savratkar property, and Abha asks him whether he's incapable of doing anything w/o his direction? He tells him that periodically, he needs to remind Shradhya what he is, and in their house, what she is? Abha suggests that this time, it would be good if her sisters too got an idea of what the Deshmukhs are. Rohit agrees. Abha continues that since all sisters have equal rights to the property, it's important for all of them to fear the Deshmukhs. He asks Rohit to go, read Shradhya the riot act in front of her sisters, and bring her back. Rohit leaves. (I really hope Shradhya follows Sandhya's example and decides to divorce Rohit - he's not much better than Yuvraj)
Vrinda cries over the album
Pankaj is quizzing Vrinda on the identities of various members of Sandhya's family, and she gets them all right. Prabha & Yuvraj join them and Prabha congratulates her. Pankaj notes that since she got the money, her speed improved. 😆 Vrinda is not amused.
Prabha suggests that they let her rest for the night, and ask her about them tomorrow. Pankaj agrees, gives her the album and tells her to go over it, so that they can review it tomorrow. They all leave.
Sandhya sits down, goes over the page that has Shyamrao's photos, and starts crying over them, as she misses him. She tells her father to forgive her that after seeing his last photo, she can't even cry, but she promises to avenge his death in full.
Suni chachi is peeping through the door & noticing all this.
Neeraj removed from ICU
Neeraj is in his ward, and outside, the warden is talking to a guy and telling him that it'll cost him Rs5000 to shift him to the general ward. The warden then notices someone coming, and quickly takes him aside, and quietly pockets the cash. The warden asks him to wait for half an hour, and he'd free up the spot (ok, so this guy ain't a Jagirdar hack specifically after Neeraj, he's just a lowlife who wants to get his relative into the ICU and get whoever is in the ICU out)
The ward boy goes in and removes Neeraj's ventilator 😡 and moves him to another to make way. He then wheels him to a general ward room, but finds that full. He finally finds an empty bed, and rolls Neeraj onto it 😡 He then tells the sleeping Neeraj to remain in a coma, and that nobody will disturb him.
Neeraj then starts to regain consciousness, and feels his way up. He then collapses again and resumes his sleep
Rohit visits Sakshi's place, recalls Shradhya
Sakshi tells Savita on the phone to come there, and that they'd leave tomorrow. She's told Adi, and he's bought tickets for all of them.
Rohit enters unannounced, and asks Sakshi to also prepare tickets for Shradhya to return, telling her that she's been away from him so long, and how expensive could it be, and should they all sacrifice all their time for Sandhya? Sakshi is shocked, and asks him why he's here, and he tells her that her sister shows no sign of returning. Sakshi tries to explain to him that what's happened to Sandhya is really major, and Rohit tells her that he has the same sentiments about her that they do, but to send Shradhya back unless she wants turbulence in her marriage as well. He tells Sakshi to send her back.
Shradhya asks him what if she doesn't go? Rohit gives a 15 minute ultimatum and says that if she's not out in 15 minutes, he's gone, and not coming back. And they too are not to send her back.
After Rohit leaves, Sakshi tells Shradhya that this is the first time she's seen Rohit so angry, and tells her that she'll manage it w/ Savita, and asks her to return w/ Rohit. Shradhya tries to refuse, but Sakshi insists.
Sunita confronts Vrinda
Vrinda is sitting on her bed still crying over the album. She sees how happy all her family was, and notes how nobody knew the deception that was behind it, or that it was behind the death of her father.
Sunita arrives & knocks on the door. Sandhya looks @ the clock, see's it's 1AM and wonders who it is. She asks who it is, and in her Vrinda mode, tells her why is she in @ this time? Sunita tells her she knows that she ain't asleep. She then enters the room & looks all around, and Vrinda demands to know why she's staring @ the room like that?
Vrinda then tells her that first Sunita's hubby casts his evil eye on her, and now Sunita is casting her evil eye on her room. 😆 What's the deal? Sunita locks the door and asks Vrinda why is she back? Vrinda is taken aback and tells her that she's not back, she's just here. She tells Sunita that this family is a goose that gives a golden egg every day, and her a life of luxury. Vrinda's life is made.
Sunita then tells her that she knows that she's Sandhya, not Vrinda 😲 Vrinda reads her the riot act again, but Sunita drags her and tells her that if she was Vrinda, she'd not be up @ midnight looking @ Sandhya's relatives (But Vrinda has to prepare for Sandhya's relatives to come, so it's not incredible that she do this? Especially for Rs 2 crores - use that excuse, Vrinda!!!) She tells Sandhya that if she wasn't Sandhya, she'd not have given DK the same punishment that DK gave her. While her language may have changed, the honest look in her eyes didn't. She asks her why she returned to this hellhole???
Just then, the door knocks, & Vrinda goes and opens it. It's Yuvraj & DK, and Vrinda asks them why are they here @ this time? Yuvraj says they're looking for Suni chachi, and Vrinda tells him that she's here, and that she had called her to revise the Savratkar family. She then mocks DK and says she didn't know chicha'd be feeling chichi's absense so acutely. She then sings a mocking tune to Suni chachi, and tells her to join her dear hubby. DK tells Sunita that she'd done enough revising, and to come w/ him.
They leave, and Sandhya is worried that she made such a major faux pas
DK too wonders....
DK is trying to recall the events of Diwali night, when Vrinda tried to seduce him, to her sentencing him to labor, and wonders why is Vrinda targetting him so specifically? He then zeroes in on the comment of hers asking him how it felt when he gave the same punishment to others?
DK then wonders why Vrinda is particularly after him? Also, how could she know all that, given that she just came yesterday? He thinks that his mind can't believe what his heart tells him. So he continues wondering who is Vrinda, and why is she particularly after him?
Precap
DK is working his domestic chores, when Savita & Sakshi come in, restrained by guards, Sakshi demanding to see her, and Savita calling Sandhya out. 😕
Comments
So finally, the Deshmukhs were back. I was hoping that today would be the beginning of the end of this marriage, but unlike Sandhya, Shradhya doesn't show as much intelligence - she should have told Sakshi the real situation, and that she wants out. Unlike Sandhya, who feared for her sisters' lives, Shradhya doesn't have that fear. Also, Sakshi already regrets not listening to Sandhya earlier, and now she's guilty of not trying to listen to Shradhya. I really hope Shradhya gets to confide in, say, Shreya, and has a place to go when, not if, her relationship worsens to the point of no return. As it is, there is the article about Sonali Nikam getting a new once in a week role, but while I'm happy for her, I hope it doesn't imply that they might off Shradhya's character, and then leave the others mourning.
Vrinda's confidence has morphed into carelessness where she can be suspected - first, she sentences DK to the same punishment that he did to Sunita, and then she asks him about it. Today, Sunita confronted her on it, and Vrinda didn't get to hold up her end of the story. Unlike last time, I doubt Sunita will be on her side, since she voluntarily came back for revenge. Vrinda really needs to talk to her miniature manager fast, and plot a way out, and act fast. If Sunita could find this out, so can DK. So whatever is Vrinda's plan needs to be executed fast b4 it is too late.
I didn't like what happened in Neeraj's hospital either - somehow, the tendency of the CVs to paint the medical profession in the worst possible light continues in this serial, where other things have been relatively better. I sure hope that ward boy is terminated, although if Neeraj recovers, he won't belong in the ICU any more. But where will he go once he's out - I really wish one of the sisters was there to see him. Maybe Bhosle might see him?
On the precap, looks like PK was still doing his pocha when Savita & Sakshi came in. Wish Vrinda had given him a break for a day, so that no suspicions would have been aroused. Anyway, let's see what happens tomorrow 😆
