Part 1
After the doctor prescribes his (absurd) prescription, Jyoti out of shock just leaves the room. Kabir looks @ her & follows her out.
That night, @ Pankaj's place, CM continues to treat him like he's Roshni's age, asking him how he'll survive w/o food. Pankaj explodes, & tells her he'll be sick for some days, doc will prescribe some pills, and he'll then be okay. He tells her that Roshni is different, and that he & Jyoti can never be together, and that he destroyed his own fate by kicking Jyoti out & humiliating her. He says that what's happening today is his just punishment. As usual, Mrs Pankaj-can-do-no-wrong CM suggests that he talk to Jyoti, and this time Pankaj responds sensibly - he explodes again and asks if he's to destroy Jyoti's marriage again? CM tries to tell him that both of them want to save Roshni, so they have to resolve a way out.
Kabir is driving home alone, w/ the doc's words still ringing in his ears. That makes him inattentive to incoming traffic π² Finally, he stops the car. He tells himself that he's not so mahaan that he'll let Jyoti do this (thank god for small mercies)
Jyoti knocks @ her maayka, & Padma opens it, and is surprised that she's alone & Kabir is not w/ her. She goes in & hugs her, crying, & Dadi, Deepu & Poonam join them. She tells them all that Roshni has cancer.
Kabir enters his home alone, and declines an invitation to join the others for dinner. CS asks him where Jyoti is, and Kabir is surprised that she's not @ home, & CS is surprised that Kabir is surprised, and makes another snide comment about them not knowing each other's whereabouts. CS continues that while Diwali preparations are on, the bahu is gallavanting outdoors. Kabir is off to call Jyoti, or find out, while Asha suspects that Jyoti is concealing something from all of them.
In Padma's place, Padma notes that all deseases have cures nowadays, but Jyoti says that the only cure in this case is her having another baby w/ Pankaj.
Part 2
Padma is shocked to hear this, and Jyoti tells her that if not done, she'd be the cause of Roshni's death. (Whatever!!!) She says she can neither see Roshni die, nor can she do the only thing that will save her. She has no idea of what she should do, and starts crying. (I hate to break it to you, but it's fairly straightforward)
Just then, Bhairavi enters, and tells Jyoti to return to Pankaj. π€’ She tells her that she knows that she's the only reason Jyoti & Pankaj got separated, but that it's a sign from above that she should re-unite w/ Pankaj (okay, so CM is still a bπ€¬ - I stand corrected)
Jyoti tells her that it's impossible, and that she can never be separated from Kabir in this life (she forgot herself & addressed her as choti-ma π€’) Deepu's phone rings, and Kabir asks him whether Jyoti is there. Deepu says yes, and that Jyoti has told him everything.
Asha is tending to Roshni, and has her in her bed, when Sumer joins them. Asha tells Sumer that Roshni was crying a lot, which is why she brought her here. She tells Sumer that Kabir & Jyoti are very worried about something, which they are hiding from them. Sumer tells her that Jyoti would definitely have shared it (Kabir maybe, but not Jyoti) but he'll talk to Kabir about it. He then pulls her aside, and gives her a gift of earrings, and tells her to keep it. Asha looks @ him amazed - probably the first Susha romantic moment β€οΈ
Kabir walks into Padma's house and asks Jyoti what's all this - disappearing w/o calling him or telling people @ home. Jyoti apologizes. Kabir tells her that she disappeared from hospital, and didn't go home either. He asks her why she didn't pick the phone? Jyoti asks him what would she have told him when she herself didn't have any answers? And leaves the room
Part 3
Kabir apologizes to Padma for coming in this way and upsetting Jyoti, but the situation was unusual. Padma tells him that this is a difficult decision, and asks Kabir whether his family knows that Roshni has an illness? Padma tells him that he was w/ Jyoti every step of the way, but now, it's not just Jyoti's, but a husband's test as well π€’ (I'm not liking the sound of this @ all) Jyoti comes in & interrupts, but Padma says that she wants to ask Kabir what he's thought about all this?
Jyoti asks Kabir to take her home, since Roshni was alone since morning - she should be w/ her. They leave. Bhairavi stands b4 Padma w/ folded hands & requests her to convince Jyoti on her behalf, as there is no other way to save Roshni. She then leaves.
Next morning, Jyoti is sitting beside Roshni while she's having her milk. Reshmi joins her, and tells her that she's not leaving until Jyoti tells her everything. She accuses her of hiding something, and asks her whether she'd have done the same had she been Sushma? Jyoti turns to her but Kabir enters, and so Reshmi leaves, saying that she'll find out anyway. Kabir tells her that the struggle is still ahead, but Jyoti tells him that there's nothing he can do and cries.
Harmukhi is on the phone & telling somebody that now is the right time to come to the haveli. She asks him why fear, when she's here. Kabir arrives there and passes her ignoring her, but leaving her shaken. She however says that even if Kabir overheard, how would it matter - who can prevent what's inevitable?
In Ashirwad hospital (looks like Jeevan has had its fill of Jyoti's clans π) Kabir arrives @ the hospital (okay, now I get it, Pankaj went to Jeevan, Kabir to Ashirwad) and asks for Roshni Sisodia's reports. Another patient comes and tells her that he wants the reports of himself & his son. He asks Kabir why he's so sad, and assures him that everything will be alright, like it was w/ him. He tells Kabir that his son has a kidney transplant scheduled for tomorrow, and will be as fit as his friends. Kabir looks @ him - the kid is in a wheelchair. He asks him that he's giving his kidney, and the father tells him that parents can give their lives for their kids. Kidney is a small thing. His son was totally disabled, but now he's happy that his son will be getting a kidney. He tells Kabir that he'll understand all that when he's a father himself. Kabir nods (This ought to have struck the doc earlier - giving one's own bone marrow of either parent should have been explored. So would Roshni get Pankaj's bone marrow or Jyoti's? I'm assuming Kabir would be out of the question, if his kid wouldn't be good enough for Roshni. Other question - is this doc a crook as well?)
Comments
The first part of Pankaj's lamenting was really redundant: even if Jyoti was still his wife, they'd have to think long & hard b4 doing what this doc 'prescribed'. Since Pankaj has dropped this idea, Bhairavi took it upon herself to go to Jyoti w/ this plan. Incidentally, I agreed w/ CS today - Jyoti just went to Padma's home like that w/o telling anyone in her sasural, or taking Kabir's call?
I wonder who Harmukhi was inviting to the haveli? I'm now wondering whether she paid off this doc to prescribe what he did to get rid of Jyoti, and is now bringing Ragini in? If Jyoti were to go back to Pankaj, that would empower her immensely. What also raises the question of whether CS invited CM to do what she did, having failed w/ Pankaj, and that both hospitals have been playing fast & loose w/ the hospital reports.
The father @ the end probably gave Kabir a hint that Roshni could have gotten a transplant recommendation from either of her parents, which would put either Jyoti or Pankaj in a position to help her. If Kabir investigates this doc, he might discover another crook, or worse still, that Harmukhi is behind his prescriptions.
