Ganga 17th April 2015 Written Episode
Sudha holds out her hand as she asks for towel. Ganga holds her hand. can I take bath now if you are done? Amma ji stares at Ganga in amazement. Sudha frees her hand from Ganga’s grip. Madhvi gives her towel. It is Ganga’s turn now. Madhvi advises her not to take bath in the evening in this condition. You can fall ill. Your Babu will scold me if he finds out about this. Ganga reminds her of the ritual to be followed for the fast. You have my swear. I know Babu will be upset and will tell me to break my fast but I will fulfil it no matter what. I will never lose Bappa! Ganga takes bath.
Pulkit finds Sagar all lost in thoughts. He assures him that nothing will happen to Ganga. Niranjan overhears this and is surprised. What has happened to Ganga? Is she alright? He asks Madhvi too. Madhvi tells him that Sagar is concerned about Ganga as she is hungry since morning. You were right that the little girl has been through so many troubles in such a small age so this fast is nothing in front of all that. She is following all the rules diligently while keeping this fast. Niranjan nods. I knew that her confidence is way stronger than my trust. We can sway from our goals but that girl will never ever give up, even if the condition worsens. He has brought notebooks for the boys and gives it to them. He leaves to freshen up.
Sagar asks his mom why she dint tell Papa that Ganga is not well. She tells him of Ganga’s swear. She goes to give tea to her husband. Sagar feels bad for Ganga. I have troubled her a lot. I will have to do something to rectify my mistake. Pulkit says you have already helped her. Will you say sorry to her now? Have you ever said sorry to anyone? Sagar agrees to say sorry to Ganga. Pulkit makes him practise. Sagar fumbles.
The ladies are singing bhajans. Amma ji finds Ganga sitting in a corner with half closed eyes. She signals Maharaj ji to drape a stole around her. He does as he is told.
Sagar practises saying sorry to Ganga in front of the mirror. Pulkit laughs seeing him thus.
Amma ji too sits down with all the other ladies.
Pulkit is asleep. Sagar continues to practise but is unable to say the word sorry. He gives up. BHaiya is right. I wont be able to say it.
Next morning, all the ladies sit down to have food. Ganga is replicating Sudha’s actions. They offer prayers and then begin to eat. Ganga smiles at Sudha but that smile irks Sudha. Do I have to give you a separate invitation? Eat the food. Ganga says you eat first, Sudha Bua. I can stay hungry for another 2 days. Pishi Ma smiles. Sudha says I am elder to you, not your friend. I thought I will pity you as you are a little girl but look at you! Ganga clearly tells her that she does not want any pity. I had told you already. Sudha is all hyper again. don’t look up so much that you stumble and fall down. You too are a widow like us. Our respect and self respect have gone for a toss because of it. You wont even get a place in hell if you remain this stubborn. Consider this as a curse from my side. Everyone is taken aback and looks at Sudha. Ganga says it isn’t good to be so angry. Bappa used to say that you cannot understand what is right or wrong when you are angry. See it cost you only. Your fast is broken now as you have cursed me. Sudha is shocked (at the realisation). Amma ji tells Ganga to be quiet. She points out to Sudha that Ganga is right actually. It is prohibited to say anything wrong or curse anyone when you are fasting. I wonder if your fast will be fulfilled now or not but you are grown up. You should be a little more careful. They resume eating. Amma ji looks a little lovingly in Ganga’s direction (when she is not noticing it) while Ganga is about to take the first bite. Madhvi and Sagar are also relieved / happy for her. Sudha eats a bite and two and then excuses herself.
Sagar refills Ganga’s plate with food. She gestures him to stop but he doesn’t stop. You haven’t eaten anything since yesterday. Everyone smiles seeing their bonding. Ganga recalls the first time when Sagar had not let her finish her meal as he wanted to play. She smiles thinking of the changes in him.
Ganga is playing with pebbles. Niranjan and Madhvi come there. He too sits down on the floor beside her. how was your fast? She tells him that it isn’t a tough task to keep fast. He asks her if she has kept fast earlier as well. She shakes her head. Bappa used to say that fasts and puja are mostly done by elderly. It is a feast for a poor person when he is able to eat something and it is a fast when his plate is empty. Niranjan is proud of her. Your Bappa was right. It is a fast when a person stays hungry even if he has everything. Rich people keep fast to go to heaven while poor people are compelled to stay hungry to sustain themselves. He leaves. Madhvi asks Ganga if she understood anything that her Babu had said. Ganga says I understood a little. They smile. Ganga adds that Babu’s voice is just like honey. Whatever he will say will be sweet and nice only. I was staring at him continuously while he was talking. His eyes shine like stars. Bappa used to say that the eyes of truthful persons shine brightly. Madhvi is impressed. Ganga remembers something and runs upstairs.
Ganga is folding clothes when Sagar comes there. I want to say something. He fumbles, wondering how to say it. he gets an idea and takes her to where the wheat has been spread. He writes down the word sorry. She cannot read it though. You tell me what you have written. Sagar is in a fix. She tells him to let it be. I know you are fooling me. She turns to go when he gathers courage and says sorry to her. She doesn’t know what it means. She mistakes it for saree. He laughs hearing her explanation but then explains the right meaning to her. She tells him that she doesn’t want sorry. He asks her what she wants then. epi ends on her face.
Precap: Ganga has come to Sudha’s ashram. I have come here to collect my saree and jewellery (of her Gauna). Sudha repeats that they are of no use to her. what will you do with that? Sagar calls out for Sudha Bua.
