The episode opens with Urmila skulking in her room and takes a phone call. Happily she speaks and asks if she will get the advance soon. The phone actually connects to Gopi, who is puzzled as to the advance that Urmila is talking about. Urmila realises her mistake and curses herself. She recovers and fobs Gopi off with another story. Gopi goes to disconnect the call but Urmila chides her and says that she does not have time for her aunt. Gopi says that it is nothing of the sort, just Radha making more of a nuisance of herself. Upon Urmila's prompting Gopi reveals that Radha wants to take over the pickle business and set it up in her own name. (What! When did this happen?😲 Oh yeah! 😳) Urmila is incensed. She says she will come over immediately. Gopi pacifies her and Urmila tells her to keep her updated.
At MM Radha is in the kitchen. She has some pickle ingredients but does not know how to make the pickle. She wonders how she will make and then comes up with the bright idea of ringing her mother. Realising that her mother will not help her, she drops that idea and decides that it can't be that hard to make pickle. She goes to the cupboards and pulls out some condiments and spices. Even then she realises that she cannot make achar. Meethi comes in and Radha tells her to help make the pickle for the achar. Meethi hesitates and says that she does not know. Radha insults her and says that surely she must have made the achar with Gopi. Meethi tells her that Gopi made the achar on her own. (Why Meethi takes that c🤬p from Radha, I don't know) Radha is upset.
Later that evening Gopi is seen finishing off the latest consignment of Rashi Achar and asks Meethi to finish packing. She leaves the kitchen. Radha has been hiding and watching. When Meethi is finished and leaves Radha takes one of the boxes and goes to her room. Taking out a jar, she smirks and says, so what if she does not know how to make the achar. She will take the company one way or another. From the bedside drawer she takes out labels with her name and photo on them and puts them over the original label.
Paridi is in the courtyard. Jigar comes across her and they swap pleasantries. Paridi thanks him for yesterday's kind gesture and he in turn thanks her for what she did at the hospital. She tells him that it was her duty but he says no, it wasn't, that she did it from the heart (or words to that respect). Paridi thinks back to Gopi's words and decides that she must do more to win his heart. She smiles. In her room, Gopi looks down on them and smiles benevolently. Sourpuss Ahem comes behind her. She tries to speak to him but he cuts her off and tells her to turn off the light as he has a busy day ahead. (🥱This guy does not know the meaning of fun )
The following morning, Paridi enters into Jigar's bedroom to give him a present. He is not in the room so she places the present and a note on the bed and leaves. Tolu and Molu come into the room to ask Jigar to sign some papers. They see the present on the bed, decide that it is for them and open it only to find that it is a tie. They are disappointed, put the tie on the bed and leave. Meanwhile Jigar comes out of the bathroom, takes out a jacket from the cupboard, spots the tie and puts it on. (He knows how to put on a tie? 😲 And a proper one at that? 😲😲)
There is shouting going on from downstairs. Urmila has arrived and is upset at Radha's takeover of Rashi Achar. Gopi assures her that it will not happen. Ahem asks Gopi if she needs his help. She declines and he tells her to call him if needed. (Oh My God! A civil word and that too in Gopi's direction. I'm going to faint here only 😆.)
The following morning Paridi emerges from the bathroom and finds a box of sweets on her bed with a message. She messages Jigar and says thanks. He receives the message and is mystified but replies back with a blushing emoticon. Paridi gets happy with this and says that she went about the wrong way to gain Jigar's love. Friendship was the better option.
Downstairs the launch of Radha Achar is beginning. Radha brings the box of achar to Bhavesh -promoter- and says that the other boxes are in his car but she wanted to hand the first box to him personally. Pictures are being taken and a reporter asks Radha to tell them more about the achar. Gopi says one minute.
She comes forward and asks that before they went ahead with the publicity didn't they want to know the truth? She motions to Paridi who gets her a hairdryer. Gopi says that soon they will know what is truth and what is a lie. She takes a jar out of the box, applies heat to the label and pulls it off, showing the true Rashi Achar label underneath. Bhavesh is surprised. He asks Radha what is going on. Radha jumps up and down and says that Gopi is lying, she is being trapped. Gopi has another trump up her sleeve. She calls to Paridi who plays a video from her phone where Radha is seen covering up the labels.
Meanwhile the doctor and other women from the hospital turn up. Radha is surprised. Gopi apologises to Bhavesh but tells that the truth needed to be told and tells to the doctor and the women that what they said at the hospital is true. Bhavesh is upset and does not listen to Radha's protests of innocence. He wants his 1lakh advance back that he had given to her, previously. Radha says that she is being set up. The doctor and the women from the hospital come forward and lambast Radha. They say that god should protect us from such women, that she is a dark stain upon womanhood and apologise to Hetal. After apologising once more and telling Radha that if she ever pulls such a stunt like that again then she and her whole staff will testify against her. They leave.
Bhavesh asks Radha for his money. Gopi also agrees and says that if she won't then she will have to go to jail. (Radha's eyes start jumping around like those googly eyed toys.) She says that she spent that money on the reporters, photographers and printing the labels. In other words she does not have the money. Paridi adds that Radha will definitely have to go to jail. Bhavesh says that he will call the police straight away. Radha jumps again and asks Gopiben to help and give her the money. Gopi asks everyone to leave and for Bhavesh to step outside for a moment.
Radha again asks her Gopiben to save her - not to send her to jail. Gopi says that she does not have any money. Paridi again says that jail is the better option. Radha again asks for help, joining her hands. Gopi says that she cannot help, she has no money and that the only person who can help is Hetal, the elder daughter in law and the owner of the house. She will have to beg for forgiveness. Radha goes to Hetal and asks for money. Gopi tells her to ask for forgiveness. Radha asks. Gopi taunts her and says to bend and ask for forgiveness properly. Radha says how can she? She is pregnant. Gopi says that she is pregnant not ill and orders her to ask for forgiveness. Radha goes on her knees. Gopi taunts and says that she should hold her hands put out and put her nose to the floor and beg for forgiveness.
Pre cap: Gopi reminds Radha that she had told before that if she ever does anything against her family then she, Gopi will stand like a wall between them and that is exactly what happened today
And there you have it. Today's doings.
