She says you’re peeking in the room full of girls? You’ve such a pretty wife. He says what rubbish. She says you were looking inside. Who were you staring at? Shiv says are you crazy? Shakti says see what are you doing here. What will people say? He says to be quiet. He puts a hand on her mouth. Shakti’s classmates laugh at her and tease them.
Shiv says stop shouting now. She asks who were you staring at? He says I was looking for you. She says you were staring at me? He says I was just looking. She says you can stare now. So romantic. you can go ahead from staring as well. He leaves. Shakti laughs. She says I know why you came here. Don’t worry I will never give up on my dream. Keertan comes there and says you’re only mine Shakti. I can’t see you with anyone else.
Scene 2Shakti asks Kartik how do you study so much. He says my exams are tough. Shakti helps him with homework. He says doctors also have homework. Shakti says yes a lot of it. Shakti sees his drawing. He hides them. Shakti says why are hiding it?? Show me. She sees the sketches and says you do it so well. You’re so talented. I am your fan. Kartik says teacher scolds me because I waste time on it. Shakti says part-time isn’t a waste. I will get you a lot of drawing books but you have to study as well. He says will you hit me like a teacher? Shakti says never. And if anyone hits you let me know. Shakti hugs him and says I will find a solution. No secrets between us.
Scene 2The maid brings Shiv’s medicines. She tells the schedule. Shakti says I know his medicine schedule. Mandira is angry. Pandma says to Mandira Shakti keeps defeating you. She’s protecting Shiv and Kartik both from you. Mandira is angry. She says all your plan is ruined. You said Shakti would leave the house the first night. She didn’t go anywhere and you got Rimjim as your DIL. Shiv does everything Shakti says now. She’s very clever. Mandira says angry. She says Shakti can’t do anything. She says my roots in this house as so strong no one can move them. She can’t win from me by doing such small things. The medicines she took from me will defeat her.
Shakti comes there and throws the medicines in the pot. She throws water on it. Padma and Mandira are shocked. Mandira says what is this? Shakti throws all medicines there. She says I am a to-be doctor. We’re taught if any medicine makes patients’ situation worse, we should discard them like this. Mandira says what do you mean? She says the world is very bad. People give their own families bad meds to harm them. Like I don’t trust you, I don’t trust your medicines either. I know it’s not a big deal to get Shiv’s medicines fabricated. You run such a big pharma company, right? That’s why I thought Shiv has been taking these meds for years, his family owns such a big pharma business. He can consult any doctor then why is his condition not getting better so I got the same medicines from the market. And I consulted with the doctor as well. They changed some medicines as well. Now you will see how soon he gets better. She leaves. Padma says she’s ruined your whole plan. It looks like you will be soon out of this house. Mandira breaks all the pots in anger. She goes inside. Padma says what if she loses her mind in all this. Padma laughs.
Scene 3Shakti says to Shiv you’ve to take these medicines on Wednesdays and Saturdays. This one, only take them when you have anxiety. Don’t take the rest of them. She says why are you looking at me like this? He says I was never careful about my medicines. Shakti says you should be careful. You never know what other people make you eat. She says I can’t live in this burned room. we will renovate it together. he says I won’t do anything. She says you have to do it with me. It’s not my responsibility alone. He says I will do it on one condition, stop kissing me. Deal? She says no. It’s my right. he says then let this room be like this. Shakti says I will fix it myself then.
Shakti looks for Shiv. He’s in the kitchen. Shakti sees him making his lunch. She says sorry. He says you can never wake up early. I can take care of my Kartik. She says you look attractive in the kitchen. He says poor Kartik went to school. I will have to send lunch with the driver. She says we can do what we couldn’t do in the bedroom in the kitchen. He says are you crazy? I will call everyone. He says ma. Keertan comes there. He says you can do all this in the room. This isn’t good. Shiv says sorry, but she doesn’t listen. Shakti says yeah I don’t listen to you. You can tell me we can do anything in the kitchen. Shiv says she doesn’t understand. Shakti holds Shiv’s hand. Keertan says what’s happening in this house? Shakti says do you have a problem? Rimjim comes there. Keertan says you can do whatever you want. It’s your life. I just don’t like PDA.
Shakti says we’re husband and wife. What’s your problem? He says because of you my relationship with my wife is affected. We’re distant because of you. You’re ruining my life. Shiv stops Keertan. He says don’t forget she’s your bhabhi. I know Shakti made a mistake but you can’t behave with her life that. Rimjim says and you can talk to my husband like that? Control your wife first. Shakti says don’t misbehave with him. Rimjim says you can misbehave with my husband. Your husband can’t even stop you from talking all the time. Why don’t you sit at home? Shakti says mind your language. She says why should I? He’s always hiding behind his wife. Burn your degree and sit at home. You can’t even control your wife. You’re not even a man. Keertan slaps Rimjim. He says how dare you talk to my elder brother like that. Shakti says how dare you slap my sister. If you ever touch her again I will not leave you. Rimjim comes to slap Shakti. Shiv stops her. He says what is happening in this house? Everyone is slapping each other? This is a home. Is that how you behave with your wife Keertan? Keertan says she can’t misbehave with you. Bhagwati says it’s all Shakti’s mistake. Raghunath says what do you want? You’ve ruined this family. Padma says she wants us all to hit each other. Shiv says to Shakti why do you do all this? Manidra says enough for today. Let us do our work.
Shakti says to Shiv please listen to me. He leaves. Keertan says to Shakti this was my revenge. She says you.. He says slap me again. At least you will touch me. But every time you hurt me I will hurt your sister. You will ruin your life. Mandira comes there. She says I am so proud of you my son. Some people should be taught their place like that. Shakti’s life is in her sister. She will suffer if you hurt her sister. thanks for reminding her of her weakness. She will be in pain and Shakti will cry. Shakti says don’t you dare. Mandira says you will see what I dare. Your weakness is in our hands. Rimjim will do whatever we say.
