Scene 1:
Location: Shiv’s house in jaitsar and jaitsar haveli.
Late night,ira calls up dadisa to ask for her permission to take anandi tomorrow to their house as their family jeweller is coming from udaipur to show them jewellery and they want anandi to be present so that she can choose to her liking.Earlier dadisa refuses and tries to make up an excuse of not being able to send anandi as lots of work to do in their household only.But finally she gives in but reminds her that shiv should keep his promise to her and not meet anandi.Ira agrees to that and cuts the phone.Anandi and gehna smiling away.Ira and meenu talking on the other end,with meenu making ira understand that maybe the time that they spent together,would bring sanchi and anandi closer like friends.Ira is tensed to hear this.She says she hopes that happens,just like she won meenu over.

Scene 2:
Location: Shiv’s house in jaitsar
mahi brings anandi to their house and gives a horn to indicate shiv her arrival,and he comes running towards the window to catch a glimpse of her.When asked by anandi,why the horn,he replies some people are desperately waitng for her.Just then daddu comes in and tells anandi to come inside with him as their jeweller has arrived.She goes inside with him.

Everybody is seated in the drawing room waiting for anandi to have a look at the jewellery,sanchi too sitting with a sullen face.They start looking at the jewellery.Ira asks anandi to look for modern designs that suit her as she has no fashion sense,she replies saying that she too likes old jewellery.Shiv watching her from behind the curtain and wondering that dadisa couldnt have found a better time to make him promise and the whole family is enjoying except him.The jeweller takes leave after showing them his collection.

Anandi says that dadisa has given prasad and gives it to everyone,with mahi requesting her to feed him.When she reaches a sulken sanchi,she extends a spoonful of prasad,but she doesnt accept it.Everybody is upset and assk her to take it,she avoids the spoon and takes it herself from the bowl instead.Alok loses his temper and asks her to behave and not take advantage of nobody stopping her misbehaviour.She sarcastically turns to anandi and tells her that she has the whole family under her spell and not just shiv,who’s blindly in love and they are so much impressed with her in such a short span of time.She says that all this while she has been thinking,what did her family see in her after all.And realises that she’s the only ignorant one who couldnt see her nobility and her special qualities and actually feels very small in position and inadequate in front of her.

Unable to control any longer,daddu asks sanchi to shut up and says that in the garb of praises,she is actually insulting anandi and asks her to apologize to her but anandi intervenes and tells daddu not to do that as sanchi is not at fault.After all,she herself finds many faults in her that she constantly complains about and thereis indeed nothing special in her.And as beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder,she is honoured by people like shiv and his family who see good in her and have accepted her with such warmth and love otherwise she too doesnt consider herself worthy of shiv.Anandi says that she knows sanchi doesnt like her and its natural since sanchi had an image in mind about her would be bhabhi that she couldnt fulfill,like that of a modern,today’s generation,extremely beautiful and someone that sanchi could talk to.And even if unintentionally,she disappointed her,she is sorry for that.In fact she gives an example that had she been in sanchi’s shoes,her reactions would probably have been the same.But she is what she is in front of sanchi and she cannot change according to her fantasy as that would mean betraying sanchi and herself too.But yes she would make every possible effort to be a good bhabhi.They have accpeted her with an open heart,she would take care of the fact that she never disappoints them.With this faith,she would enter as their daughter in law that with the course of time,she too would accept her as her bhabhi and a friend too and she would wait for that time and hopes that sanchi would wait for it too.

Sanchi again retaliates back saying that with such sweet talks,she might have won over her family’s heart but they would have no influence on her and before anybody can stop her she goes inside.Ira apologizes on sanchi’s behalf to anandi but she says not to do it since sanchi is not at fault and she has no complaints against her and has just one request which is not to force her to accept anandi as everything would happen with time.Forcing her would all the more aggravate the anger.Daddu praises her saying that she nurtures and kepps the relations just like small plants and flowers that need growth and he is certain that when he comes to their house,every relation would prosper in her presence.Meenu too comments that they are fortunate to have a bahu like her and hopes sanchi too would understand that sooner.Anandi wishes to take leave,daddu instructs mahi to leave her.When she’s gone,everybody is sitting with a tensed face,including shiv behind the curtains.The screen freezes on his face.

Underlying Message: Patience,maturity and calm always make a prson have logical thinking and rational ideology and approach to life so that they can negate the effect of narrow minded and irrational psychology.

Precap: The haldi ceremony has started ion the jaitsar haveli.Whiel in shiv’s house,sanchi is extremely upset to hear that anandi is a divorcee and rebukes them for telling her so late,they might as well have told her after the marriage.Everybody is tensed seeing her reaction.
