Alok scolds sanchi while she leaves for her room. All are shocked to see her go like this. Meenu and Anandi, who is as it is hurt at sanchi’s statement, are all the more tensed when she finds shyam, bhairo and nandu at the gate who have come to take her back to jaitsar. Everyone is tensed and anandi’s family is hurt. The screen freezes on anandi’s tensed face.

Underlying message: The generation influenced by our western culture are characterised by western style of clothing. But they start forming the opinion that people who are indian in their clothing and involved in household work are nowhere advanced…..This is a very orthodox and backward mentality of the so called modernised generation.

Precap: Dadisa jokingly addresses her as collector ranisa and gets them to seat. Jagiya’s absence boggles anandi and shiv and they ask dadisa where is he and dadisa and everyone else are speechless to answer.
