FV says that during festivals, there are celebrations everywhere, and people forget their worries for a day. As it is, Yuvraj was worried about Sandhya telling her sisters about the games being played on her, and now, he's even more tense w/ Neeraj around. He thought that Neeraj was here to expose the plot of the Jagirdars to Sandhya's family. Previously, he was just there to stop Sandhya from talking to her sisters, but now, he has to worry about stopping Neeraj as well.
Neeraj welcomed in Jayesh's home
Yash boasts to his dad that they were all excited @ how Yuvraj uncle flopped the dahi handi, and how this new uncle Neeraj successfully broke it 👏 Sandhya is sitting alone quietly, and Yuvraj & Neeraj both watch her. Yuvraj wonders what's w/ Sandhya - until Neeraj came, she was impatient to talk to her sisters, but now that Neeraj is here, she's quiet. He wonders if this was another plot of Neeraj & Sandhya. He goes face to face w/ Neeraj, and Neeraj reminds him of the condition - he has won!
Sakshi prepares tea, and gives it to them. She tells Sandhya that she was right about Neeraj - he was very jovial. She had no idea when he surfaced there @ the Govinda temple. Yuvraj tells her that surprising people and making fools of them is something he's really good at. He's been like this since childhood. Sometimes, he pulls really disgusting stunts - don't ask! He invites Sandhya to confirm it, but she doesn't.
Neeraj says that nobody seems surprised by his surprise. 😆 Sandhya, for instance, is acting absolutely normal - like she knew that he's about to come. Yuvraj turns towards Sandhya suspiciously 😆 Sakshi tells him that not just Sandhya, but they all were surprised, wondering who was it here that Yuvraj knew? She tells them to have their tea, while Yuvraj & Neeraj give each other cold stares.
Rohit's dad abuses his mom over his lost glasses
Abhay is in the living room, looking everywhere for his glasses. He sees his wife standing there & staring, and yells @ her to start looking for it. Rohit appears, and Abhay asks him about it. Rohit tells him he won't find it. Yesterday, when he returned home, he found the house open, her majesty his mom asleep, and his wife out for 3 hours. Abhay is shocked & angry to hear this. Rohit tells him a thief must have come & stolen his glasses.
Rohit's mom tries to say in her defence that she was feeling unwell. She concedes that it was her mistake that the door was open, but had someone come to steal, there were a lot more valuable things in the house than his glasses. Nothing else was stolen, so why would the glasses be stolen?
Rohit makes a mocking gesture 🤢 and Abhay is furious, and goes up to her and slaps her 😡 Rohit gloats 🤢 Abhay tells her that the glasses cost Rs 140, and he just got new frames last year. So what does she mean by saying that? That someone would come, empty the whole house, and then she'd wonder why she left it open? He tells her that due to her, someone came and stole it, and that he'd recover it from her. Abhay then leaves, and Rohit, in a gloating manner, mocks her and leaves. His mom is sad 😭
Neeraj yanks Yuvi's chain some more 😆
Adi comes in and sees Sakshi diligently cutting the veges. He resents that while she couldn't find time for cooking for his boss, he had no problems finding time for her sister and coming here to help Jiju (Adi, that's right - it's a higher priority than your boss. You change jobs, Phadke is history, but Savita would still be her tai)
Neeraj comes, and asks Sandhya to at least tell them about the place, since they're @ her sister's place. Sandhya tells him that she has no wish to talk to him, and that he's not to create another scene like in Gwalior. She gets up to leave, and Yuvi gets up offering to help her around. Neeraj goes up to him and mocks him, reminding him that in Gwalior, he was only too happy to leave her alone, to bump into beds and frighten her, but here, @ her sister's place, which she's all to familiar w/, he wants to help her? See how easily she's finding her way around, w/o any tension? Oh, he forgot - Yuvraj is worried about Sandhya telling all to her sister. Yuvi turns to him enraged, but Neeraj assures him that Sandhya will tell nothing to her sisters. Neeraj would - in front of everyone. Yuvi is outraged, but Neeraj tells him that he was just joking - why's he so mad 😆
Sakshi comes up to them and complains that they pull each others legs all the time in Gwalior, so it's not fair that they're missing out on the action 😆 She tells Neeraj that she's heard all about his pranks & jokes from Sandhya (Neeraj would have been a good uncle to Yash & Aryan 😆) She will call in the kids, and calls for Swati, Apu, Yash & Aryan.
Neeraj tells Yuvraj that he really was joking, just like he did w/ Sandhya in Gwalior. He then reminds him that he won the bet, and so Yuvi has to do what he says. He tells Yuvi that he needs to talk to Sandhya in private, in the absense of Yuvraj, and that unlike other times, when Yuvraj is all around Sandhya there to overhear her conversations, this time, that cannot be the case. He hopes Yuvraj remembers his promise.
Adisa have another fight in front of everybody
Everybody is seated somewhere or the other for dinner. Adi openly tells Sakshi that here, she's doing everything so smoothly, whereas @ home, she hardly finds time to cook, and often orders food from hotels. He had no idea that she could do all this. It's good. Sakshi goes up to him and tells him that he knows fully well that she's doing this since Tai is not here, and asks him not to start in front of everyone. Adi tells her that had it been his relatives, or his boss, she could have started, but here, he is expected to be silent. Everyone else is stunned by this face-off, and Jai tries to diffuse it by praising Sakshi's efforts, and saying that Adi was just kidding. However, Adi contradicts it right away, and somewhat rudely warns Jayesh against interfaring, and Jayesh backs off. (I really wish they soon uncover the reason behind Adi's animousity towards Jayesh). Adi then asks the kids whether mom feeds them like this @ home? Yash responds that like this, sitting on the floor, never!!! 😆🤣 Sakshi gets up in disgust & leaves. Adi is smug, & Neeraj looks @ him like he's a
Neeraj gets Yuvraj busy
Sakshi is alone, thinking that Adi & Sakshi are totally unmindful of both past & future, and just start off anytime (Sandhya, there's something to be said for that, over the convoluted games you, Yuvraj & Neeraj are playing) Neeraj comes in and tells her that he needs to talk to her alone. Sandhya tells him that she needs to talk to him, but in front of Sakshi-di. Neeraj tells her that he needs to talk to her alone first, and then he'll do anything she asks. He turns around and sees Yuvraj arrive. He goes up to him and reminds him that he's won the bet, so Yuvraj has to do whatever he says. He has to tell the kids a story. The kids are excited and mob Yuvraj 👏🤣 Neeraj tells the kids that Yuvraj uncle tells very good stories, that include planning, tricks, so to capture him, and not release him until he's told them the story. Yuvraj looks @ Neeraj like he's a rabid dog. 😆
Neeraj tells Sandhya that what she heard was a lie
Neeraj & Sandhya are outside, and he tells her that what he's telling her now is true, and that he was just playing a practical joke then, and she knows that he pulls these pranks very often. That day, he was lying to her, doing a drama, due to the accusations she was laying on others. Sandhya tells him that she doesn't know whether he was lying then, or he is lying now. Neeraj tells her that he's telling the truth now, and that he was afraid that if she told her sisters all this, what would they think of her family. Sandhya tells Neeraj that if he's telling the truth, he's crossed all bounds. Neeraj asks her whether it was right how she was accusing everybody? Sandhya tells him that he almost started a fight, w/ Pankaj-uncle, DK-uncle & even Yuvraj. She still doesn't believe him.
At this point, Yuvraj arrives @ the window and listens to the rest of the conversation. Neeraj tells Sandhya that he's already been scolded by all 3 uncles, and if she wished, she could as well, and she could even slap him. Sandhya tells him that she's stopped trusting him, but if this was a joke, it was a pretty lame and cheap joke, which she can't forgive him for. She was about to tell her sisters about this, but luckily, Tai is away and due to Yuvraj's presense, she didn't get to tell her. Neeraj then falls @ her feet 😲 and begs for forgiveness. Sandhya gets angry and tells him that this isn't the haveli, this is the chowk, and people will see them. Neeraj says that he doesn't care, and that until she forgives him, she won't let go of her feet. She then is forced to forgive him to make him let go of her feet. She is now in a good mood, and invites him to see how 8-10 people easily fit in a room. (So now, Yuvi can have not just Neeraj, but Jayesh & Adi there as well 😈)
Yuvi tells his parents what Neeraj did...
Yuvraj is surprised that Neeraj fixed everything, after all the moves he made throughout the day. However, he is relieved, and thinks Sandhya won't think ill of him anymore.
At dawn, the phone rings, and Yuvi picks it up, goes outside and asks his mom why she called so early? He tells her to relax, and that while Neeraj did taunt him a lot, ultimately he told Sandhya what was in their interests, and Sandhya now has no idea about the truth. They are safe.
...and Sandhya overhears it
Sandhya is up, on the other side of the window, overhearing all this. She realizes that her suspicions were correct, and that Neeraj lied to her last night. But why - after telling her the truth the other day, why did he lie to her this time? If there is another truth, what is it?
FV concludes by saying that life is rarely simple for anybody. Sometimes one thinks one's worries are over, except that they re-surface elsewhere.
Precap
Pankaj asks Prabha what will happen to Yuvraj? She tells him that it's her fight alone. She won't accept defeat, nor will she let Yuvraj admit defeat. DK asks her how she could think that if dada-sahib wasn't w/ her, they 2 would abandon her?
Comments
I actually liked the mind games b/w Yuvraj & Neeraj, where both were unplugged & unrestrained in the jives they pulled @ each other. Thoughout the episode, Yuvraj was on pins & needles. And the coup de grace - after Neeraj had persuaded Sandhya that she was not being lied to, she managed to overhear Yuvraj's conversation, so now, she has a clear advantage, in that she's suspicious, but others so far think that her suspicions are gone. Hope that she does get to talk to Sakshi alone. This should be easier, since Yuvraj won't be shadowing her any more.
Adi, in contrast to Yuvraj & Neeraj, was so bare knuckled - just picked up a fight then & there. Couldn't Sakshi have told him that family comes ahead of bosses, and that he had no such grievance about her short-changing his relatives.
Rohit is a sadist - looked like he said everything he did to see his mom tortured. A report about the shooting being cancelled reports that Rohit would kick Shradhya out of the house for losing her Mangal Sutra and being out 7 hours. In a way, it's good, since Shradhya ought to have left that house on her own by now anyway. Also, why would she bother about a mangal sutra when the guy in whose honor she wears it treats her like trash?
Episode rating: 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
👍🏼: Yuvi's suspicions gone, but Sandhya's re-kindled by Yuvi himself, Neeraj hazing Yuvraj
👎🏼: Adi picking this occasion for a fight
