Astha says why does she give importance to potatoes in this house. She talks to the vegs. The maid laughs. Astha says do your work. Astha boils potatoes. The maid says put some Khatta in it, else the throat will be itching. Astha gets an idea and sends her happily saying itching. She calls Ajju and asks how to get rid of itching. Ajju answers her. Astha says something will happen now, sorry Baba, I m making special dish for you.
She thinks she is not doing anything wrong. Renuka comes home and talks to Ajju. She says it would have been better if Sid loved Jyoti, but Sid loves a guy. Ajju says what, how do you know. Renuka says I saw him hugging, and maybe they have………… chee……. Ajju says you are mistaken. Renuka says he said he does not like any girl, it means he likes guys. I saw on tv, guys love guys and marry too. Ajju says I will explain him. Renuka imagines Sid marrying a guy and shouts no…………
Niranjan coughs having food. Anjali gives him food. Everyone get worried. He gets itching and asks how it this dish, its itching. Astha says but you like this dish, why will it itch, does it itching to everyone. Everyone say no. Shlok asks does he have allergy with potatoes. Varad says maybe he has an allergy now in this age. Anjali says he has been eating since years. Astha gives him a chutney and this relieves Niranjan. Shlok asks Niranjan to go and rest. Anjali thinks did Astha did anything. Astha is happy. Anjali comes to her and asks what are you doing. Astha says cleaning.
Anjali sais throw all these potatoes. Astha says we will stop making potatoes for few days, don’t lie to me. Astha thinks sorry Bappa to lie, and lies to Anjali. Anjali says I don’t trust you. Astha says its potato’s mistake, scold it, why me. Anjali says I will go market to buy potatoes. Astha says I will also come with you. She says it is important for our family. Anjali leaves. Astha smiles and says I will market with Anjali now.
Ajju talks to Kalindi. Sid comes and greets them. Kalindi says I have made hot puran puri. I will pack for you. Sid asks Ajju did she talk to Jyoti. Ajju says no. He says call her, I will also talk to her. Ajju says its morning, she might be sleeping. He says will she like me or not, but I decided I will love only Jyoti. Kalindi comes back and hears his love confession for Jyoti and is shocked. Anjali and Astha come to buy good quality potatoes. Astha says we use many potatoes, give us 10-15 kgs of all types. Anjali asks her to get tomatoes. Astha says we will take 25 kgs.
Shlok is in the meeting. He misses Astha and the staff says she is not here. He says we will talk about this later. Everyone leave. Shlok laughs and calls Astha. He asks what are you doing wifey. She says I m buying tomatoes, I came with Anjali to buy potatoes. He says come home soon, I miss you. She says even I miss you. He says come home. She says yes, you come home, I will make cold coffee for you, I will come. Shlok says what did you happen to me, if I don’t see her for some time, I become strange, I have to bring her back to office so that my drama queen stays infront of me.
Sid apologizes to Kalindi for not telling her everything. He says he loves Jyoti, love just happens. Kalindi holds his ear and smiles. She is happy for Jyoti and praises him. Sid and Ajju smile. Ajju asks don’t you have any problem. Kalindi says no, why will I, Jyoti has her whole life, Abhay does not deserve her, Sid will keep her happy. Sid promises. Kalindi says I will talk to them when the right time comes. He leaves. Shlok comes home and calls out Astha.
The maid says Astha did not come back from market. Shlok gets annoyed and goes to his room. He says I want to spend time with her and she………. She comes and gives him cold coffee. She holds her ears and says sorry. He says I took a decision. She asks what. He says you will work with me in office from tomorrow. She says office? He holds her closer. She says how will do work at home. He says I will talk to Baba now and leaves. Renuka comes to Sid and sees him with a guy. The guy gives her the card and says you have to come in our marriage. Sid says yes, she will, why won’t she, she is my mum.
Renuka agrees accepting their relation. She asks the guy did your parents agree for this marriage. The guy says yes, come in marriage. She removes her bangles and Sid asks what are you doing. The guy says I need only your blessings. She blesses him. The guy leaves. Sid says lets meet in marriage. Renuka says I told I m modern, but not this much, to accept that you are marrying a guy. Sid asks what? Do you think I m that…. She says I m seeing everything. He says nothing can happen with you. He leaves.
Shlok comes to Niranjan and talks to him about Astha joining office again. Astha hears them. Shlok says some projects are pending, she has to come office to do that work. Niranjan says I know, but she has house duties too, if she is free soon, then she can go to office. They talk about other projects. Astha thinks she understands what he means, now she will surely go to office as he does not like her going office. Niranjan comes to Anjali. He scolds her and asks her to focus on her bahus. He says give much work to Astha at home, that she can’t go to office.
He says I sent her to office, as she and Shlok had to come closer, it was about my house’s respect. He says the time has come to stop her from going office. Anjali says yes. Niranjan says explain her whats woman’s place in the house, try to show her place, as Shlok came to me asking permission for Astha to go office, I don’t want this, Shlok should not know you are doing this as I told you, make her busy at home and women suit being in kitchen. Anjali gets worried.
Ajju talking to Sid. She asks do you have any affair with a guy, Renuka said. Sid tells her how much she worries for him and thinks so. Ajju says tell her you love Jyoti. He says how can I. She says if she knows by someone else, she will feel bad. Sid says we have to know whats in Jyoti’s love. Ajju says parents worry about kids a lot, see Kalindi worrying about Astha so much. Sid says fine, I will tell her on right time. Astha sees Anjali making special dish for Niranjan and says lets make it more special, sorry Baba……… Anjali comes and says Astha you have much work tomorrow.
The phone rings and Anjali leaves. Astha is about to mix something and Anjali is back. Anjali and Sojal takes the dishes. Astha thinks what to do now. She sees plates and puts the liquid in that. She brings them on the table. Anjali says today I brought the potatoes from market myself. Astha gives him that plate and Anjali serves him. Astha smiles. Niranjan starts eating. He again coughs and gets unwell. Everyone worry about them. Astha asks do you have problem again in throat. Niranjan says I don’t understand why is this happening with me again and again.
Shlok eats it and says why is this happening with you, I m fine. Varad says I think you got allergy with potato, I will call doctor. Astha thinks thanks Varad. Shlok takes Niranjan inside. Varad calls the doctor and asks him to come to see Niranjan. Astha calls him too and asks him to do what she said him. The doctor comes and checks Niranjan. He says I think you got allergy to potatoes now. Niranjan says I did not have any, I have been eating since years, I eat potatoes since childhood. The doctor says stop eating potatoes from today. Shlok says yes, he is right.
He says they won’t cook potatoes in this house. Anjali says he likes it a lot and we don’t cook without potatoes. Shlok says if Baba is having a problem with it, then don’t cook. He tells Astha to make dishes without potatoes. Astha says yes, Baba’s health is important. Shlok says throw all potatoes now. Astha says come Shlok and they leave. Anjali thinks Astha’s smile is saying a lot. Shlok and Astha go in the kitchen and he is shocked to see rags of potatoes. She falls and he holds her. He gets closer. The maid comes and laughs seeing them. Shlok says her timing is superb.
Astha says go……… Shlok leaves. Astha asks the maid to take all the potatoes to her home and ashram. Anjali comes back to taste the dish. She tastes it from bowl and it looks fine to her. She then eats from Niranjan’s plate and starts coughing. She drinks water and she says I know Astha did this, she has mixed something, lets see in kitchen.
Jyoti asks Niranjan to have juice. He says you need it, tell me if you have any problem here. She says no, I m fine. Shlok says I have thrown all potatoes, I called the dietician, who will tell you what to eat. He says we can’t see you hurt ever. Varad says yes, we can’t see you in pain. Niranjan smiles and says I m fine. Jyoti says please take care as you are world’s best father. Shlok says yes, for us, you are mum and father, if anything happens to you, we all will break. Jyoti says lucky people get a father like you. She hugs him. Niranjan hugs his children and says I m lucky to get children like you. Astha comes and sees Niranjan smiling.
She thinks their love is pure for them, but I know your evil thoughts, I m shocked to see your two faces, how can you cheat your children. Anjali finds in the kitchen and Astha comes there. Anjali sees the liquid and Astha takes it. Anjali asks whats this. Anjali tastes it and understands this is it. She coughs. Astha gives her lemon. Anjali scolds her and asks why did she do this. Astha says maybe I did mistake. Anjali says no, you can’t do a mistake again and again, I will be hurt when Niranjan gets hurt. Astha says you won’t get hurt as I m here, what did I do, I have kicked out potatoes out of this house.
Astha says Niranjan would have become fat eating potatoes. Astha hugs her and Anjali smiles. Anjali leaves. Astha comes to see Jyoti. Jyoti marks the calendar. Jyoti talks to her. Astha tells about baby shower function. Jyoti says let it go. Astha says when we can celebrate, then why not. She leaves. Jyoti says that function was never celebrated in this house. Astha thinks to tell Anjali, but she will refuse. She thinks only Shlok can help her and smiles. Anjali asks whats going on in your mind now. Astha says nothing, I have some work and leaves.
Astha comes to Shlok. He is busy reading file and she makes her bangles sound to get his attention. She says hear me once. He says I m busy. She says we should celebrate Jyoti’s Godh Bharai. He asks whats this. She explains him that its done in 7th month of pregnancy, we should be happy, lets celebrate. He says I did not see this, even no one celebrated Sojal’s. She says I saw Jyoti was telling about her friend’s Godh bharai function, she will be happy if we do this, I will ask the pandit to find mahurat, you see the cards. Shlok says what, guests too? We have to ask Baba.
She says yes, take his permission, only women can come. He says its so confusing. She says we are doing this for Jyoti, so whats the need for permission. He says I love Jyoti a lot, but I have to ask Baba first. She says fine, take Jyoti along, thanks. I love you, now you do the work. Sajna ve…………….plays…………….. Shlok thinks he has to take Niranjan’s permission.
