EPISODE 35 – Monday, 21st October
Dv
tells Dilshad that he will make sure Saachi feels the same love he
does. Dilshad asks him how he is going to do that when she doesn’t even
want to be in the same room as him. DV says that’s what he is going to
achieve. Catch her alone as much as he can so she can know how much they
feel for each other. Dv arrives at
the Prabhu household the next day. He explains to everyone that he has
decided to make halwa and needs a recipe. Nani says Saachi makes the
best halwa so he should leasrn it from her. Saachi refuses initially but
Aaji and others insist. DV and Saachi are in the kitchen making halwa.
Dv pesters Saachi about what her answer is… He keeps asking her about
her feelings. Saachi through her clenched teeth and a fake smile keeps
thwarting his advances. “Please leave me alone and let’s be civil when
we meet in front of people!” says Saachi as DV is giving finishing
topuches to the halwa. Saachi walks away. DV smiles watching her leave.
When DV gives the halwa to Aaji, she spits it out. It’s horrible! Dv
bumps into Pradeep at the market. Pradeep is sarcastic and asks DV if
his degree in law was a fake. And if it isn’t then he should ask for a
refund. DV says he has just won the battle but the war will be won by
Saachi. Pradeep says, “Unfortunately people like you think that wars are
fought in court rooms… I fight my wars on the ground level. I know the
Prabhu family too well… They believe too much in emotions and I know how
to use them!” DV wonders what Pradeep means. Prachi
has come home to visit and to discuss the karwa chauth that she is
keeping. Saachi asks her about how her life with the in laws is going
and Prachi as usual complains that the mother in law is still peeved at
the way Saachi behaved with Rishi. Saachi explains that as time passes
things will get better. Prachi also cribs about having to keep karwa
chauth and how tough it is going to be. Saachi says it’s not so
difficult. Prachi hits back, “Kehna aasaan hai!” Saachi says ,”Toh karke
dikhati hoon… Tumhare saath main bhi rakhungi… Bas?” Prachi is thrilled
to have some company. Aaji and
Saachi are arguing vehemently. Saachi says she cannot back out after
going so far with the case. “I will find a way!” she asserts. Aaji says
her ways have only caused everyone tension. “Koi zaroorat nahi hai case
ladhne ki… Uski zameen hai… Jo chahe karey us se! Tumhe us se kya?”
thunders Aaji. Saachi can’t believe that Aaji is on Pradeep’s side. Aaji
says, “If it wasn’t for him Nani would have died! And if it wasn’t for
the case saachi would probably have been home! Is business ke chakkar
mein tum zindagi ko bhool rahi ho Saachi! Kya hoga kal ko jab hum sab
mar jayenge aur sirf yeh zameen hogi tumhare paas?” Nani calms Aaji
down and explains to Saachi, “You still have your side of it and
whatever you produce from that use it for your jams… In case you need
more then get the strawberries from elsewhere but please don’t fight!”
Saachi doesn’t say anything and is non-committal. Dilshad
comes to DV and informs him that she is keeping karwa chauth the next
day alongwith Prachi and Saachi. DV is surprised that Saachi is keeping
it and gets a brainwave. He hugs Dilshad and says she is a savior for
getting this news. “Ab dekhna… Saachi ka karwa chauth mere haathon
tootega!”
FREEZE ON DV
EPISODE 36 – Tuesday, 22nd October
Karwa
Chauth morning ceremony where Nani explains the significance of the
festival to Saachi, Prachi and Dilshaad. As the path goes on Dv watches
Saachi. A play out of the festivities. DV
catches Saachi alone and starts to play passionately with her. She gets
angry and tries to thwart it when DV reveals that he needs some detail
regarding the case as he has applied for the duplicates of the papers
lost at the collector’s office. She will receive it in fifteen days.
Saachi is still defiant and walks away. Saachi
is searching through her cupboard for the file to get the detail that
DV wanted when Aaji walks in. When Aaji finds Saachi looking through the
case file she gets upset that despite her outburst Saachi is still
going ahead with the case. Saachi avoids the conversation and says she
will discuss it later as it’s karwa chauth. Karwa
chauth festivities of the afternoon begin and Deeplai lands up with
Pradeep as does Sunil with his mother and sister. Prachi’s mother in law
is a bit bitchy about Saachi keeping the vrat. The rituals play out as
we also see a moment between Sunil and Pradeep (seeded to get them
together subsequently against Saachi) Pradeep
sees Dv and asks Saachi “Ab bhi yeh lawyer hai tumhara?” Pradeep
laughs. “Kya hua Saachi? Umr ke saath saath bahut narm hoti jaa rahi ho…
Case haarne ke baad bhi nahi nikala isey? Agar yehi baat chaar saal
pehle hui hoti toh jis lawyer ne nahi jitaya usey toh phenk deti
uthake!” Saachi says that they lost the case because she lost the papers
but now they had applied for a fresh set and will probably get it
within fifteen days. Pradeep is immediately alert. Aaji and Nani look at
each other as if to worry that Saachi has not given up her decision to
fight the case. Deepali points out
that DV cannot be thrown out because he is not just her lawyer but
something more. Saachi is shocked and doesn’t know what is coming when
Deepali elaborates that he is also their neighbor. Saachi is relieved.
The rituals go on. Pradeep is on the
phone and gives details of the new development to someone. “Jitna ziddi
samjha tha us se zyada nikli… Lekin main usey tod doonga… Aap sirf us
officer se kehke pandrah ki jagah ek mahine baad dilwaiye duplicate… Tab
tak main yahan chakkar chala doonga!” Dv
accosts Saachi again and this time whispers in her ears that he will
make sure that she breaks the vrat at his hands. Saachi sneers and walks
away. DV has a couple of moments with her where she manages to evade
his attention. Finally it’s time to
break the fast and DV arrives and announces that he has made halwa
successfully this time and that he will feed everyone personally. Each
of the family-member has the sweet and even though she tries to avoid it
Saachi has no choice but to finally eat it from DV’s hand. DV gives a
triumphant look to Dilshad and winks at her. Dilshad grins widely.
Saachi is angry
EPISODE 37 – Wednesday, 23rd October
Saachi
gets a call that her consignment has come back from the client because
of wrong labeling. She is given 12 hours to rectify the error. Saachi
rushes to the office where Mugdha waits alone as no one is in. Mugdha
also tells her that she has to go home in two hours. Saachi and Mugdha
start the relabeling process. Dv
comes to help them but Saachi refuses his help. Dv is standing outside
in the rain as Saachi refuses to open the door. Eventually she relents
when its time for Mugdha to leave. DV starts to label the bottles with
Saachi. Hot, sweet and sour moments between Saachi and Dv play out as
the ten hours pass. DV finishes his labeling and sleeps. Mugdha
arrives in the morning and finds that the labeling is perfect. Dv
begins to leave when Saachi says, “Thanks!” Dv is over the moon and
smiles. Dilshad arrives to inform
Saachi that DV has high fever and the temperature is not coming down.
Saachi doesn’t believe Dilshad and says, “This is the problem with him…
Just because I smiled and said `Thanks’ his pranks have begun again!”
When Dilshad tries to explain Saachi just says, “Give him a crocin!” DV
is lying at home wrapped in blankets and with a bit of stubble. When
Dilshad walks in he looks behind her and sees no one. Dilshad shakes her
head in the negative and says Saachi didn’t come. “Woh nahi aayegi DV…
Tum kyon yeh zid kar rahe ho… Tumhara bukhar badh gaya hai. Let me call
the doctor!” she says. DV is adamant. “Mujhe kuch nahi hoga… Aur doctor
ko bulaogi toh main chala jaunga… Saachi zaroor aayegi… Usey aana hi
padega! Saachi goes to the terrace
and peeks to look if DV is ok. DV is lying on his bed and is really
unwell. Saachi sees Dilshad trying to give him some medicines, which he
refuses to take. DV then starts coughing and is breathless. Saachi is
really worried. Dilshad tells Saachi
that DV’s fever has gone to 103 and that he is delirious. Saachi says
she should give him a cold compress and if the fever doesn’t go down
take him to the hospital. Dilshad gets angry. “Take him to the
hospital??? What is wrong with you? What has gotten into you? Yeh case
haarne ki sazaa de rahi ho usey yaa kisi aur cheez ki?” Dilshad says,
“Aise waqt mein log dushmanon ki madad bhi kar lete hain… Aur DV toh
dost hai!” But Saachi looks uncompromising. Dilshad
shuts the light in Dv’s room and walks down. Saachi enters Dv’s room
and finds that he has high fever and he is unconscious. Saachi takes the
cold compress and starts to nurse him. In the morning Dv opens his eyes
to see Saachi. Saachi is a bit relieved but gets back to being her
strict self. Dilshad comes in and Saachi instructs her on what to do
next. As Saachi is walking away Dv calls out to her and says, “Ab bhi
kahogi ke tumhe mujhse pyar nahi hai?” Saachi walks out in a huff.
FREEZE ON A GRINNING DV
EPISODE 38 – Thursday, 24th October
Saachi
meets Dilshad to ask her to intervene on Saachi’s behalf (we could
catch the scene midway where Saachi has told Dilshad everything).
Dilshad tells Saachi that she knows. Saachi asks her how could she
encourage such a thing. Dilshad says she finds nothing wrong in it.
Dilshad pleads with Saachi that love knocks on the door only once and
that she will be a fool to let go of it. Saachi walks off in a huff. DV’s
phone rings and it says, `sweetheart’. DV has a conversation with his
mother who is now revealed. She keeps telling him to come back and is
quite surprised that something has held him back for so long. “Dus din
se zyada toh kisi cheez se nahi bandhte… Is baar kya ho gaya?” Dv smiles
and says, “Is baar shayad poore janam ko bandh jaunga!” DV mother is
puzzled and asks him forthright if it is some romance ka chakkar. DV is
evasive and that’s when the mother warns him. “Mazaak tak theek hai DV
lekin tum jaante ho kis tarah ka parivar hai hamara… Jazbaat aur
zimmedariyon mein yahan jeet sirf zimmedariyon ki hoti hai… Toh kisi ko
woh ummeed mat do jisey tum poora nahi kar saktey!” DV is pensive. Ulka
comes to Aaji and Nani and gives them the gossip that DV has vanished
and that Dilshad is distraught. Ulka says good riddance to bad rubbish
because it was only a matter of time before DV would create problems in
the area. Saachi walks in at that moment and hears Ulka. Saachi is
concerned about what must have happened. Saachi goes upstairs and takes
her phone. She scrolls down to DV and tries to call him. The phone is
switched off. Saachi then dials Dilshad who explains to saachi that DV
just left without taking his stuff or saying anything. Dilshad says she
has a bad feeling about this. Saachi
is making tea for Aaji and Nani when she keeps a third cup in the tray
and brings it. When Aaji asks her who it is for Saachi gets awkward. Flash:
DV asking her to pilao her a cup of tea every morning. Saachi puts the
cup away as Aaji starts speaking to her about how rude she was to DV.
Nani also mentions that it is quite out of character for her to lash out
at him. “Madad hi toh kar raha tha hamari!” says Nani. Saachi avoids
further conversation and leaves for work. Saachi
tries to start her jeep when suddenly she sees DV standing in front
smiling. “Kya hua? Daddu beemar hain?” asks DV and when Saachi looks up
he is not there. Saachi drives the jeep away. Saachi
is driving the jeep when she sees a person asking for a lift and she
remembers DV’s first meeting with her. Saachi almost smiles when
suddenly a truck comes from the opposite end and she swerves to the side
of the road only to get flashes of DV and her earlier incident where
they walked home with files in the rain. Saachi
reaches the office when Mugdha says someone is waiting for her in her
office. Saachi reaches there and the chair swerves towards her and it’s
someone else. Saachi gets a flash of DV’s first meeting in the office
with her. Dilshad comes running to
Saachi’s house. Dilshad is crying as she says the cops called her. They
found DV’s wallet on an accident victim who is dead. Saachi is shocked. A
distraught Dilshad and Saachi enter the hospital (or wherever the body
is) for identification. Dilshad blames Saachi for this situation and
Saachi silently bears the guilt. The drama plays out where the dead body
is shown and Dilshad is relieved that it’s not DV. Saachi and Dilshad
come out of the hospital to see DV standing there. Saachi is relieved
and starts to weep out of relief and vulnerability. At the same time
she starts to fire Dv for leaving without saying anything. DV is amused
as he says he had just gone to be alone and clear his head. Saachi
doesn’t allow him to finish. “Thank god you are alive… Oh my god! I’m so
glad you are alive!” In an emotional state Saachi goes close to DV and
embraces him. DV holds her tight and smiles, “And you said you don’t
care about me!” Saachi continues to cry holding on to DV as Dilshad
watches them both.
