Bhagya Lakshmi 1st November 2024 Written Update
Dadi, while smiling, begins to sing, encouraging everyone to cheer themselves until the moon is sighted to divert their attention. She asks how they can know when it appears and calls Aayush, asking what he’s doing standing around. Aayush replies that he is looking at the moon, but Dadi insists he should dance and cheer the ladies instead. She then questions Avinash about his inactivity, reminding him it’s his duty to keep her daughter happy. Avinash agrees, and Dadi encourages him to take action since he arrived late. She asks Rishi if he would need an invitation to join in, to which Rishi responds affirmatively, making everyone smile. Dadi probes whether he will just say this or actually do something. Aayush comments that they must listen to Dadi since she has instructed them to act, teasing her, which earns him a playful slap from Dadi before they start their performance.
The ladies watch with smiles as Rishi, Avinash, and Aayush perform a lively festive dance. Rishi dances closely with Lakshmi, while Anoushka sits with Karishma, who is watching intently as Malishka glares at them both. Neelam and Karishma are enjoying the show. Rishi even tumbles to the ground, prompting Aayush to join him. The women cheer for the men, pleased by the performance. Dadi asks if that’s all they have, urging them to dance more, but Aayush claims they are tired, which Karishma agrees with, allowing them a break. Dadi quips that the boys of the modern generation lack stamina and prays to Bhagwan that the moon must be delayed. Suddenly, Anoushka excitedly announces she sees the moon, and Dadi instructs everyone to quickly come and perform the pooja, causing them all to get busy.
Malishka seethes at the sight of Rishi and Lakshmi together. Sonal approaches her, questioning why Malishka is standing there instead of joining them. She implores Malishka to go over, pointing out that the Thali has arrived, praising her as she encourages her to participate. Malishka, fuming, begins to walk toward Rishi and Lakshmi while holding the Thali. As she storms away, she inadvertently causes the carpet to twist, making Lakshmi stumble off the roof. Malishka smiles at the chaos. Rishi rushes to catch Lakshmi, gripping her hand as she teeters on the edge, and begins pulling her back up. Everyone is anxious, including Lakshmi herself.
Neelam shouts for Rishi to pull her up, and he reassures Lakshmi that nothing bad will happen as Aayush urges her not to look down. Rishi instructs Lakshmi to hold on tight, while Dadi encourages her to use her other hand to help. Rishi manages to grab both of her hands, struggling at first but eventually pulls her up with Aayush’s help. Dadi demands they bring a chair for Lakshmi to sit in, who is still panicking. Rishi comforts her, assuring her that they are all by her side. He rushes to get her some water and hands it to her, while Neelam checks if she is alright. Rishi vows that nothing will happen to her, and Dadi expresses her relief that Lakshmi is safe, advising her to enjoy something sweet to feel better. Rishi feeds her with his own hands, which Malishka watches with frustration. He declares he’ll take her to her room to rest, but when he notices Lakshmi struggles to stand, she admits she might have hurt her foot. Rishi immediately picks her up, carrying her toward the room and assuring her it’s nothing to worry about. Malishka, dismayed, wonders why Rishi is carrying Lakshmi, as her plan has completely backfired. Neelam checks on Malishka, believing Rishi’s actions today were appropriate. Aanchal approaches Malishka, but stumbles, prompting Neelam to guide her inside. Karishma offers to help, but Neelam insists she stay and look after everything. Anoushka suggests Karishma join Aanchal, promising to come and take her blessings later. Aayush reminds Anoushka to finish the pooja rituals, and she takes his blessings before heading to find her mother.
Fuming, Malishka walks away, believing that what just happened was unjust. Anoushka informs Neelam that Malishka is going to her room, and Neelam urges Anoushka to stay with Malishka since she will be upset, though she must attend to Aanchal first. Anoushka agrees and departs, while Neelam expresses her restlessness, unsure why she feels so unsettled. She prays that everything will turn out well, having risked so much for her family.
Rishi leads Lakshmi into the room, continuing to reassure her that everything is alright. He searches for the first aid box, but Lakshmi insists she just needs to rest and will feel better soon. Rishi counters that it’s not right to be stubborn, but Lakshmi insists she will recover on her own. Sitting beside her, Rishi shares that it is said the way one spends their first day determines how the rest of the year will go. Lakshmi questions his meaning, and he reminds her that Karwa Chauth is the first day for newlyweds. He pleads with her not to argue with him, as neither of their egos should take precedence. Rishi acknowledges that Lakshmi kept the Varth for his long life, emphasizing the value of their relationship over their disagreements. He insists he must take care of her since she didn’t drink a single drop of water. Rishi asserts that it is his right to care for her, asking if she understands. Lakshmi questions whether he is scolding her or explaining, to which Rishi replies he is simply trying to convey his feelings. He expresses that she neglects her own well-being, but he will not. Lakshmi reflects on how Rishi has cared for her in the past, which brings tears to her eyes. Noticing her tears, Rishi apologizes if he upset her and once again asks for the first aid box, which Lakshmi points to on the bookshelf. Rishi swiftly retrieves it and begins to apply the ointment to her injury. When she winces, he reassures her he will be gentle. However, she refuses to let him touch her foot, prompting Rishi to humorously suggest he could apply it in the air instead. Lakshmi mentions that traditionally wives touch their husbands’ feet today, and Rishi responds that she has made his life beautiful, emphasizing he cannot imagine it without her. Rishi thanks Lakshmi for being in his life, and as he applies the ointment again, she feels the pain but manages to control her expression. They share a smile, enjoying the moment together.
