Bhagya Lakshmi 23rd October 2024 Written Update
Kiran opens the door but is taken aback when she sees Karishma and Neelam. Karishma asks if they can come inside, and Kiran agrees. They all sit on the couch, and Kiran instructs her servant to bring water. However, she is shocked again to see Lakshmi and questions Neelam about her presence. Rishi explains that Lakshmi was reluctant to come, but he insisted. Kiran asks why they are visiting, and Rishi responds that they are concerned about Malishka and her behavior. Neelam suggests that Rishi should be polite with Kiran to resolve the situation, then asks Kiran to bring Malishka out. Kiran replies that Malishka is not there. Karishma pleads with Kiran not to act this way, emphasizing that Malishka should be brought out. Kiran angrily asserts that Malishka did not come and demands to know where she is. Neelam rises in shock, wondering where Malishka could be, as they had expected her to be at her mother’s house. Neelam then attempts to call her.
Meanwhile, Malishka approaches someone and, upon getting closer, realizes it is Balvinder. He pulls out a knife, revealing his identity with anger in his eyes. Malishka asks what he is doing, and he accuses her of ruining his plans after he took out loans to start a business. He declares he has never encountered anyone as selfish as her and brandishes the knife, reminding her that it is what she used to injure him. Malishka pushes him away, asserting that his injury was minor, which does not justify his actions. Balvinder shoves her onto the couch, confronting her about her words, saying she referred to him as the uncle of Lakshmi’s children and that if he does not get her, he would destroy everything. Malishka pushes him away again, retorting that she should not have to pity him when she has lost everything herself. As she begins to throw items around in frustration, Balvinder blames her for his losses, claiming she is the one at fault. In a fit of rage, he tries to stab her, but she falls to the ground, and the knife strikes a flower pot instead. Malishka calls out for Sonal, but Balvinder threatens her, insisting she will die today, and that no one can save her, while Sonal remains unconscious in another room.
Neelam mentions that Malishka is not answering her calls, demanding Rishi’s phone, convinced that she will respond to him. The group is stunned when they see what is on the phone.
As Malishka continues to flee, she calls for Sonal’s help, but Balvinder insists she can run as much as she wants—he is going to kill her. Malishka threatens to shoot him if he does not leave, but in the struggle, she falls onto the bed beside Balvinder, and they both lose consciousness.
Neelam is in shock when the others ask what has happened. She reveals that Malishka sent a message indicating she would jump off a cliff. Kiran pleads with Neelam to save her daughter, while Lakshmi asks to see the message. She notes that Malishka would not jump since there is no cliff nearby. Lakshmi suggests they leave immediately to find her, and everyone rushes to get into the car. Kiran expresses her worry, but Neelam reassures her, and Rishi adds that he knows Malishka is safe. Kiran inquires if Rishi read the message, to which he responds that she knows her well. Lakshmi suggests heading to the cliff first, but Neelam insists they should go to the police station, prompting Rishi to change course.
Sonal wakes up in the room, realizing that the storm has not ended. She thinks she might have dozed off and notices Malishka’s belongings, surmising that Malishka has gone outside. Sonal tries to get up but feels woozy from the medication. Determined to help her friend, she manages to stand but leans against the door, calling for Malishka. Just as she begins to succumb to her dizziness, she falls back onto the floor, unconscious again.
Kiran rushes to the commissioner, asking him to search for her daughter, who has gone missing. Neelam informs him that Rishi has not seen Malishka’s message, while Karishma questions his calm demeanor. The commissioner urges everyone to stay calm. Lakshmi shares her concerns about the court’s decision, and Neelam expresses disbelief that Malishka would take such drastic action, insisting she is not weak. Rishi concurs, stating that she would first notify someone or report to the police. The commissioner suggests they check the cliff first, instructing the Inspector to accompany the family. Kiran urges the Inspector to act swiftly.
In the car, Kiran mentions that they have not located Malishka anywhere. Lakshmi adds that they have searched all possible places without finding any trace of her. Rishi tries to comfort Kiran, but she insists he does not understand the situation. Karishma suggests that Malishka might be at Sonal’s house, while Rishi posits she could have gone to their farmhouse in Pune. Kiran decides to go with Karishma to Sonal’s house, as she is Malishka’s best friend. Neelam expresses her intent to head to the farmhouse.
Karishma and Kiran arrive at Sonal’s house and start knocking on the door, but no one answers. The Inspector advises them to step back while he checks. A worker eventually opens the door and informs them that everyone has gone on vacation. Karishma inquires about Sonal’s whereabouts, and the worker reveals she has gone to Pune. Karishma pulls Kiran aside, declaring that she suspected Malishka would have gone with Sonal to the farmhouse, and they will find out soon enough.
Neelam knocks at the door as well, but there is no response. Rishi offers to check, while Lakshmi suggests using the spare key. Rishi goes to contact the caretaker, and Lakshmi, feeling concerned, follows him. The caretaker arrives, explaining that there was an electrical issue, and he brought a lamp and the keys. He tells Rishi to call him if he needs anything. Rishi finds Lakshmi and reassures her that they will locate Malishka. She agrees, acknowledging that he knows her well, but asks if he has any idea where she might go in trouble. Rishi concludes she might head to the Mandir, knowing her instincts better than she does.
Neelam is anxious as Rishi brings the keys and hands Lakshmi the lamp. He opens the door, informing Neelam that he didn’t ask the caretaker to accompany them. They enter the farmhouse and are shocked to see items strewn across the floor, leading Neelam to wonder what could have happened to Malishka. Rishi assures everyone that they will find out soon and that they need to start searching.
Malishka and Balvinder lie on the bed together, and as she slowly regains consciousness, she wonders what has transpired. She is stunned to find Balvinder sleeping beside her and tries to escape, filled with shock.
