The episode opens with Noyontara in distress, speaking to a priest named Jagatpati. She tells him that Soorjo’s mother spoke to her, and she had a dream where Soorjo’s mother didn’t seem like a good person. Jagatpati then reveals his dark side, explaining that the world only sees him as a devout man, but he has a sinister side that he keeps hidden, much like a mirror has a dark back. He smiles wickedly, hinting at his evil intentions.
A woman, dressed in a grand saree, arrives at the magnificent Pari Mahal in a white car. It’s revealed that she is impersonating Soorjo’s mother, Lalita. Jagatpati welcomes her, and they discuss their plan. Jagatpati is worried because Noyontara has the special ability to see and communicate with spirits. He fears that she might see the spirit of the real, deceased Lalita, which would expose their entire conspiracy. He tells the fake mother that they must welcome Noyontara into the house as the new daughter-in-law with full rituals in front of everyone to gain control over her.
However, the fake mother reveals a shocking twist in their plan. She is not just an imposter; she is Lata, the identical twin sister of Soorjo’s real mother, Lalita. Her plan is even more sinister. She wants to perform the final rites (Shradh) for her own sister, believing it will prevent Lalita’s spirit from ever contacting Noyontara. She laughs maniacally, showing her truly evil nature, as Jagatpati looks on, seemingly impressed by her cunning.
The scene shifts to Noyontara, who is sitting helplessly outside the locked gates of Pari Mahal. The fake mother, Lata, approaches her and tells her to get up. Noyontara, confused, looks up at her. Lata warns her that all their enemies are gathering together. Just as Noyontara asks who she is, a police jeep arrives. The police inform Noyontara that the owner of the house has filed a complaint against her. Noyontara is stunned and tries to explain that she is the daughter-in-law of the house. The officer delivers the final blow, revealing that her husband, Soorjo, is the one who filed the complaint. Noyontara is heartbroken as the police arrest her and put her in the jeep. As they drive away, she sees a white car approaching the mansion, the same one from her vision.
The white car pulls up, and a woman who looks exactly like Lata steps out. It’s the real mother, Lalita, who has returned from her pilgrimage. Soorjo and the entire family are shocked but overjoyed to see her. Soorjo rushes to her, calling her “Ma.” The family has an emotional reunion. Lalita, however, is not happy about the recent events. She confronts Soorjo, questioning why he accepted the forced marriage with Noyontara. She declares that she doesn’t recognize the marriage because the sindoor was applied by force. She calls Noyontara a fraud who lies about seeing ghosts. Meanwhile, at the police station, Noyontara is in a lock-up, worried about Soorjo. A young man named Shayon arrives to bail her out. He tells her that he is there to help and protect her, but they can’t go back to Pari Mahal as the family will not let her in. He reassures her that her marriage is real and he will stand by her.
The episode ends with a promo for the “Vivah Mahasaptah” (Grand Wedding Week). In the promo, Lata, the evil twin, is seen performing a ritual to welcome Noyontara into the house, who looks completely terrified and confused. It’s clear that Lata has a bigger, more dangerous plan in motion, setting the stage for a week of high-stakes drama.
Review
This episode was a rollercoaster of emotions and packed with major twists. The revelation of Jagatpati’s dual personality set a sinister tone right from the beginning. The classic ‘evil twin’ trope was introduced with great suspense, making Lata a formidable new villain. Her plan to perform her own sister’s last rites to trap her spirit is both chilling and diabolical, adding a unique supernatural layer to the family drama. The performances were strong, especially from the actors playing Jagatpati and the twin sisters, Lata and Lalita. Their evil laughter and cold expressions were very effective. Noyontara’s helplessness and arrest were heart-wrenching, making the audience root for her. The cliffhanger, with the police arresting Noyontara just as her real mother-in-law returns, was perfectly timed to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. The upcoming ‘Vivah Mahasaptah’ promises an explosive confrontation between the two sisters and a tough battle for Noyontara to prove the truth.
