Rishi And Jhanak Caught! A Forced Wedding Awaits!
The episode starts in a dark forest where Jhanak is guiding Rishi to the highway. She tells him that once he reaches the road, he can take a bus and return to his wife. Rishi, grateful for her help, tries to give her money, but Jhanak is deeply offended. She passionately tells him that she helped him out of kindness, not for money, and that she has big dreams of her own. Amused by her innocence, Rishi thanks her for making the difficult journey bearable with her chatter. Just as they are about to say goodbye, they are suddenly surrounded by Tejas’s men and angry villagers.
The villagers drag them back to the village courtyard. A large crowd, including Jhanak’s Bua Dadi and Nutan, has gathered. Damu accuses Nutan of deceiving them by helping Jhanak and Rishi elope. The villagers are furious and believe that Rishi spent the night with Jhanak and was trying to abandon her. When they try to attack Rishi, Jhanak bravely steps in to protect him. To save him from the mob, Jhanak makes a shocking announcement: she agrees to marry Rishi. However, she calls it a ‘cinema-style’ marriage, a fake arrangement to get them out of the situation, explaining that real love cannot be forced.
Meanwhile, Rishi’s family is extremely worried. His fiancée, Aditi, is panicking because his phone is switched off. Her family tries to calm her down, but their own attempts to contact him fail. Aditi’s brother-in-law, Surajit, manages to get the DIG’s number. When Aditi calls, the DIG lies and tells her Rishi is fine and will be back soon, claiming it’s part of a secret mission protocol. However, his own worried expression suggests he is hiding the truth to avoid compromising the mission.
Back in the village, the forced wedding preparations begin. The villagers dress Rishi as a groom and Jhanak as a bride, placing her in a decorated basket for the ceremony. Nutan tearfully tells Jhanak she doesn’t know how Rishi will ever accept her. The episode ends on a tense note as the villagers force Rishi to put sindoor on Jhanak’s forehead, sealing their forced marriage.
