Ganga has still kept the ashes of the things she burnt some time ago (of Sagar and her). Amma ji wakes up because of the mosquitoes. She also asks Ganga to close the door. She gets up to do so when she notices Sagar outside. He covers her mouth. Amma ji turns around so she immediately lies down.
Sagar is lying next to him only. She tells him to go but he insists upon talking to her right away. She again pretends to lie down as Amma ji turns in her sleep. Ganga again asks Sagar to leave but in vain. They both go outside together.
Sagar brings Ganga upstairs. She says what madness is this. why did you bring me here forcibly? I said I don’t want to talk to you. He shushes her by keeping a finger on her lips. He agrees that he is an idiot. I understood things late but I finally did. She wants to go but he asks her if she remembers what happened 10 years ago. Flashback is shown. Sagar had made her wear one anklet. He had kept the other one with him. Flashback ends.
You broke all the ties and gave it back to me when I came back. He shows it to her. She recalls doing so. Either Sagar will make me wear the pair in both my feet or I will never wear it. He says you think I forgot everything. No, I kept every memory related to you with me, including this anklet. I was waiting to make you wear it. I took time in understanding the real meaning of our relation. But I did understand.
It isn’t friendship but love! He makes her sit down and then ties an anklet in her each foot. Tears roll down her cheeks. She stands up. She removes the anklet and hands it back to him. Relations, memories, you kept them all safely to come to me when you will realise it. Ask me what it is to stay away from you. I have learnt to bear this pain by staying away from you and even after your return! 10 years, 112 days, 34 hours and 25 seconds – I have only loved you!

Ganga then give Sagar the ashes that I did all these for the love and faith I had for you but now everything is over, I can’t do this anymore and everything is your fault and you have ended it by yourself and you were not aware, Sagar tries to make Ganga understand but she tells him to leave her and said please throw these in the river because there is absolutely no point keeping it. Ganga tries to leave but Sagar held her hand, but you wrote these letters to me but you didn’t send them why?
you should have given it to me when I came back home, so I that I can know how much you love me, please don’t go. Sagar goes inside his rooms and brings a glass of water, he mixes the ashes with the water and drinks them. Ganga is surprised, Sagar says now all your feelings are inside me now and You cannot leave me ever please tell me that you love me and Forgive me please. I love you!
She requests him to listen to her. Go back to London. The path you are thinking to walk on, will only take you down. I have been through this pain and yearning so I am asking you to go back. He stands there helpless.
Next morning, pundit ji tells Ganga to do a sankalp on Bappa’s Punya-thithi. Is there no one else in your house? Ganga explains that she was everything to her Bappa. I only will do it. Sagar holds her hand just when she extends it. I respect Ganga’s Bappa a lot. Will I not do this much for him? He asks Ganga if she thinks he wont remember this day. She makes him leave her hand.
There should be a relation to do puja together. He is only my friend. We share no relation. Right, Sagar? Tell me what relation do we share? I only will do this. She does all the rituals herself. Sagar watches her quietly. He also folds his hands to pray along. Ganga begins to follow pundit ji upstairs when Sagar stops her. Sagar asks Ganga why she is trying to run away from him.
You easily said that we share nothing. How can you say that it is nothing? She replies that she said the truth. Just saying I love you does not solve problems. You just got engaged. Your fiancé left for home and you realised your love for me? What will you call this relation? If someone asks you what relation we share then what will you say to them. Who am I? In your fiancé’s absence, will I be your mistress? He says her name angrily as he raises his hand mid air. She wipes her tears. You could have slapped me. You have this much right as I gave it to you but I don’t have any right on you.
You never gave any right or name to this nameless relation. She heads upstairs. Her words haunt Sagar. He looks at Ganga and thinks of putting vermilion in her forehead in childhood. Since then, she has always thought of him as her husband while he had said that he likes Janvi. He is distracted to hear the bells ringing in temple. He takes her with him.
Sagar brings Ganga in the temple. She demands to know why he brought her here. He wants to give a name to their relation; to prove it that my love for you is genuine; that this isn’t fake; that we have equal rights on one another. I will prove it! He picks up vermilion from the puja thaal. I filled vermillion in your forehead in childhood. I forgot it though.
I will do it again today and give this relation a name. She looks at him stunned. He holds his hand near her head but she stops him. I have applied vermilion in my head since childhood till today. But it stayed only between us and only I lived it. You realised it today only while I spent my 10 years with it. I wont let you make the same mistake again. I cannot play hide and seek anymore.
In everyone’s eyes, you are Janvi’s fiancé. The preps are on. You will do this only in God’s presence. I wont accept it and neither will anyone else. He tries to say something but she stays put. I have been through a lot already. I don’t have the strength and wish to bear any more pain. She leaves from there teary eyed. He looks at his hand.
Janvi smiles looking at her pics with Sagar. Her mother teases her. Call him if you miss him. Sagar is in temple only when his phone rings. He looks at the incoming call. Ganga’s words echo in his head. He disconnects it. Janvi wonders what’s keeping Sagar busy. Is he with Ganga? it cannot be! I have to know where he is and with whom.
Madhvi and Amma ji are busy in buying clothes and jewellery for Janvi. Amma ji asks Niru to join them but he has to leave for Mumbai. You guys carry on. Madhvi tells him to meet Janvi and her parents. He nods. Supriya gives a sindoor daani to Madhvi. Madhvi wants to do a grand wedding of Sagar. Amma ji wants to make up for the boring Pulkit’s marriage. Pulkit hears it and is upset. Prabha seconds Amma ji. She asks Supriya about her jewellery.
Supriya says I am not habituated to wearing them so I did not. Amma ji tells her to wear them. You are newly married. Prabha likes a saree for herself. Madhvi tells her to take whatever she likes. Ganga is rushing somewhere when Amma ji asks her to make garland for evening puja.
She turns to go when Prabha stops her. That can happen later too. She makes Ganga sit with them. We are choosing clothes for Sagar’s bride. I feel so bad to think of wat she had to bear because of my son. I pray she gets all happiness of the world. Ganga tries to go but Prabha asks her to sit. Tell us what colour will suit her.
Ganga replies that she knows nothing of colours. Sagar’s would be wife will look good in everything. Ask Sagar only. He chose his wife so he will make her wear clothes of his choice only. Amma ji nods. She asks Sagar what he will like. Prabha says Janvi and Ganga’s skin tone is same. We should try it on her. She keeps the red chunri on Ganga. Madhvi and Amma ji look on in shock. Amma ji scolds Prabha. What did you do? She is a widow! Why did you keep the shagun’s saree on her?
Prabha acts to realise her mistake. I forgot it. You did injustice with a nice girl. No colours or wishes. She will spend her life this way. I feel pained to hear anyone calling her a widow! Ganga tells her not to feel bad. I have got used to hearing it. You are right. I don’t have a right on these colours or on wishing something. I am widow after all!
Sagar feels bad. She turns to go but he holds her hand. You are not a widow. You aren’t! Everyone looks at them in shock. Prabha smirks. Sagar repeats that Ganga isn’t a widow. Madhvi makes Sagar leave Ganga’s hand. Have you lost your mind?
Sagar says it is truth. Ganga is Ganga, pure, pious Ganga. That’s it! Our worse society has named her widow in the age she could not understand what it means. Is this justice? He asks his Dadi if she is proud of her this society only. Ganga’s life isn’t colourless. She has an equal right on colours like everyone else.
He picks up the sarees. Yellow means Shagun. Since Ganga has come in the shagun, what has gone wrong? He questions his mother. You always wanted a daughter. You have raised Ganga like a daughter. Why was she insulted today? He asks his Dadi the same question.
Sagar says a girl makes her doll wear pink clothes. Ganga too had a right on it but you snatched all colours from her in childhood only. Her toys, happiness, you snatched everything from her! He notices the sindoor box in Supriya’s hands. He takes it from her. this red colour is of live and marriage. Your society wiped this colour off Ganga’s head with what right? She cried, shouted but no one showed mercy.
Dadi tells him to stop but he sticks to his words. He calls her society, its rules wrong. Everyone is doing what they like. No one cares what Ganga feels. I wont take it anymore. I cannot bear it. She has a right on the colours too. She will get all those right and in front of everyone’s eyes!
Sagar then tells Ganga that she is right that he did not understand the love she had for him all these years but he knew everything that she was enduring all this while and he ignored them but now I’m telling you not to hide our feelings from each other anymore and I promise to also return all the happiness the people of this world took away from you,
Sagar then put vermilion in Ganga’s head in the presence of everybody in the chautervedi house. Ganga is touched and she cries so Sagar drops the sindoor box and held Ganga’s hand. Amma ji shouts and says this is wrong very wrong, I’ve always known that Gangaa will bring misfortune to this family now she has done it, Madhvi is so sad and tells Sagar to leave Ganga’s hand but he refused so Madhvi slaps Sagar and shout Leave Ganga’s hand now, are you mad?
clean that vermilion but Sagar refuses, Madhvi tells Sagar that it is sindoor, not Holi colour and It can never be removed, Sagar says this is the color of my life and it will remain in Ganga’s forehead forever, from now henceforth Ganga is your daughter in law and my wife. Everybody is shocked.
Ganga looks at him teary eyed. Only Maharaj ji looks happy. Sagar drops the sindoor box and holds Ganga’s hand. Amma ji calls it wrong. I kept saying that this girl will bring doom to our house. She proved me right. Madhvi asks Sagar to leave Ganga’s hand but he does not. She slaps him. I am asking you to leave her hand! Are you mad? Clear this vermilion. He refuses. This is sindoor, not some Holi colour. It cannot be wiped and then put again.
This is the colour of my live which will stay in Ganga’s forehead forever. From now and today onwards, Ganga is my wife and your DIL. Madhvi tells him to stop it. You have lost your mind. Leave her hand. Ganga and Sagar hold hands tightly.
Madhvi looks at Ganga. Sagar tells his mother he has held Ganga’s hand for life. No one can separate us now. Amma ji wants to try. She goes inside for second and comes back. She asks Sagar to leave Ganga’s hand. He shakes his head. She hits on Ganga’s hand to make them let go of their hands but in vain. Sagar thinks of the childhood times when his Dadi had done something similar.
Supriya tries to stop them but they pay no heed to her. Sagar tells his Dadi she can try as much as she wants to but now neither the hands will part nor them. Ganga says you can hurt as much as you want to but this vermilion has stamped our relation. You ignored it years ago too. Amma ji says you are blaming me. She badmouths Ganga. We have seen Ganga since childhood. She had her eyes on Sagar. We saw it all. You cannot be the DIL of this house till I am alive!
Janvi calls Yash. She asks about some news of Sagar and Ganga. Ratan signals Yash not to tell anything to Janvi as of now. Yash lies to Janvi. You dint send me money. Janvi agrees to send right away. I don’t want Ganga to make use of my absence in any way. He agrees. Send money for now. He ends the call. Poor janvi has no idea Ganga and Sagar’s love story started as soon as she left. He receives a message from bank. Janvi has sent half of the money. Ratan wonders if Pulkit arranged the money or not. He gets Pulkit’s call just then. They decide to meet in the evening. Yash asks him how he can go before Pulkit. You are fooling him by someone else’s name. Ratan says it is not just you who is smart. everyone is celebrating in Chaturvedi Sadan but soon they will being to mourn.
