Jhanak 23rd October 2024 Written Episode
The episode begins with Pandit ji asking everyone to take Jhanak along. Guru ji suggests that they should give her a name. Pandit ji responds that he will conduct her Naamkaran, as she has received a new life, and names her Notun. Jhanak smiles at this. A girl comments that Jhanak will have fun at Pallavi’s wedding. Jhanak leaves, and the Pandit notes that she knows the dance taught by their family, mentioning Urvashi and their connection. Guru ji agrees, saying he hasn’t heard that name in a long time. He explains that he left Urvashi for her betterment, fearing that if Kul Bhushan learns he is alive, he would harm Urvashi. He confesses that he changed the direction of his life for her sake. Pandit ji responds with concern, asking if he and Urvashi had a relationship and if she might be pregnant. Guru ji denies this, expressing his sorrow. He explains that Urvashi never told him anything and disappeared, leaving him unaware of her life.
Arshi arrives home, creating a scene as she inquires about Anirudh. She argues with Bablu, while Lal interrupts with a taunt. Bablu and Anjana scold Lal, and Shubh and Tanuja enter, asking what the matter is. Choton arrives and questions Arshi about her return, as she had already left the house. Arshi replies dismissively, indicating she doesn’t need to answer him. Dadi intervenes, saying Arshi did well to return. Arshi responds that they expect her to stay there. Meanwhile, Pandit and Guru ji observe Jhanak dancing joyfully with others. Pandit ji tells Guru ji that Kul Bhushan took away his life and encourages him to confront him. Guru ji refuses, but Pandit ji asks if he doesn’t wish to keep his art alive or see Urvashi again. Guru ji reflects that Urvashi wanted a relationship with Kul Bhushan, but he left her. Pandit ji reminds him that he and Kul Bhushan look alike, suggesting Urvashi was deceived, and questions why Guru ji never told her the truth. Guru ji admits he was scared that Kul Bhushan would take everything from him, thinking he would eventually leave. Pandit ji insists that Kul Bhushan has returned to reclaim his place, his name, and his love. He urges Guru ji to promise to settle the scores. Guru ji agrees. Pandit ji expresses his desire for Guru ji to fight, to find Urvashi, and to embrace his Brij Bhushan avatar with Jhanak’s assistance. He believes that she will shine and needs his support, viewing her arrival as a miraculous event. Guru ji smiles at this prospect. Pandit ji stresses the importance of identifying his art so that the world can recognize the truth.
Dadi questions Arshi about what happened, noting that Jhanak is gone. Arshi asserts that she’s not leaving them; instead, she has caused havoc, leading to Shrishti’s arrest. Shubh, shocked, asks why she didn’t inform him sooner. Arshi explains that Shrishti has lost her reputation, with the police suggesting she is hiding something. Anirudh then enters, asserting that the truth cannot remain hidden. Jhanak observes a couple participating in wedding rituals, triggering memories of her marriage to Anirudh. Guru ji asks if she is tired. Jhanak mentions having seen a temple before, where marriages take place. Pandit ji and Guru ji comfort her as she begins to cry. Suddenly, she shouts Anirudh’s name and faints, prompting everyone to panic. Pandit ji checks on her and sprinkles water to revive her. Jhanak regains consciousness and questions where she is and who they are. Pandit ji reassures her that she is safe in their ashram and inquires about Anirudh. Jhanak responds with his name before stating her own as Jhanak Raina, Jhanak Bose, then correcting herself to Jhanak Raina. Pandit ji then asks about Urvashi Raina, to which she replies that Urvashi is her mother, leaving Guru ji in shock.
