Kumud looks at him. Pramad says you got so much insulted but still you are here. He asks her to look down. Kumud stares at him. He is about to slap her, Budhidhan sees them and calls Pramad. He says lets go to office, I need to talk to you. He says Kumud has so much work, move out from her way. Pramad looks at Kumud and gets angry. He leaves. Kumud takes a sigh of relief and cries seeing her fate. She wipes her tears and goes to do her work outside.
Budhidhan tells Pramad that we are going to a village to meet the flood victims, you too be ready. Budhidhan sees Pramad is not hearing him, he gets angry. Saras stands there and watches them. Kumud too stands at a distance and hear them talking. Pramad says if you are embarrassed by my presence, then why do you want to take me, take your Saras with you, afterall you trust him and are proud of him more than me. But you cannot make him your son, thats why you are after me. He insults Saras comparing him with a dog. Saras and Kumud gets angry. Saras thinks of Kumud’w words and controls his anger. Budhidhan gets angry on Pramad, Saras stops him by slapping Pramad.
Saras talks to Pramad and says you are right, I m your dad’s servant. I cannot become his son, but I regard him as my dad, because I respect him a lot, whatevre you told, I got angry but your words made your dad embarrasses infront of me. Pramad says I don’t like you. Budhidhan shouts at Pramad, and says get out from here. Saras calms him down. Budhidhan apologizes to Saras on Pramad’s behalf. Saras says I don’t care, its ok. Saras looks at Kumud while she is crying.
Budhidhan and Alak are going to leave for party office. Her mum says I will do your arrangements, Budhidhan says we all have to go. Alak says if we go, it will look like a party campaign, if we go together, they will feel we really care for him. Her mum agrees. She asks Sid to have food fast. Sid says I have to study and write an essay on family. She says you got more busy than your dad. She says your bhabhi Kumud will make you study. She leaves Kumud and Saras alone on the table. Kumud starts leaving but Sid stops her and asks about family. Saras looks on. Kumud says family is that where our people are there who love us, care for us, and sometimes bear pain for our sake. She looks at Saras and says they support us always, don’t leave us, don’t cheat us in any circumstances.Sid asks Saras to say soomething about family.
Saras says family is that where we got forgiveness, no matter what mistake we do, our family punish us but forgive us too, where we cannot see each other in pain, where we want to help them but we cannot do, we hurt ourselves sometimes. He says I don’t have any family, but who I think as mine, I cannot see them in pain. Saras looks at Kumud and defines family. Sid says its enough, I will go and write. Sid leaves. Saras says you don’t trust love now, isn’t it. She says I still believe in maintaining relations even though I got cheated.. She taunts Saras calling him relation breaker. He says then why do you keep your relation with Pramad. She says you don’t have any right to speak between us. He says I don’t care, I m going with everyone, you have to decide what you want to do. Saras replies well and leaves.
Pramad comes to his mum and asks for money. She gives him and says I explained you many time that you should change yourself. He says don’t give a lecture now. Budhidhan comes there and says give this money to Kumud. Kumud comes there with tea. Budhidhan asks Kumud to take the money. Pramad gets angry. Kumud takes the money after much thinking. Budhidhan says Kumud wil take care of your expenses.Pramad says you are insulting me and looks at his dad. Pramad leaves.
Everyone looks on. Kalika hears this standing outside the door. Budhidhan says Kumud will decide Pramad’s expenses. Kumud talks with Pramad’s mum. She says I cannot sleep with peace, now I m worried about you. Kumud asks why and says I have good parents who care for me, I m very happy. She says always be happy. Kumud calls Kalika. Kalika comes. Kumud asks her to clean the room and leaves with her mum-in-law.
Everyone are going to the village. Budhidhan says we are leaving, take care. Inkesh comes and makes excuses. Pramad’s mum says take care of yourself and the house. Kumud says don’t worry. Sid says I m with Kumud bhabhi. Budhidhan says we trust Sid more than Pramad. Budhidhan talks about Patphere rasam, where in Pramad has to be in Kumud’s mum’s place, he says that rasam cannot happen now, because if Pramad does something there, we will be embarrassed. We will talk about this after we return. They leave for the trip. Saras looks at Kumud and leaves.
Pramad coming home in a drunken state. He scolds the security guard. He gets annoyed as he is not having any money, he thinks he has to beg for money to Kumud. Its windy weather, the curtains fly in Kumud’s room. Kumud hears Pramad’s voice and thinks she is alone at home, what will Pramad do. She worries thinking about Pramad’s reaction. Sid comes to her. She says lets do your essay and sits with him. Kalika comes there and sees Kumud tensed. Kumud tries to focus on the essay. Kalika goes to Pramad. Pramad says I need wine. Kalika says you need respect, you did not get respect and love in this house, and today you have to beg money from Kumud. Pramad says my dad did wrong.
Kalika says your dad is not wrong, its because of Kumud. She speaks against Kumud and raises his temper. Kalika says you won’t have anything except me. (Sticky wall lizard Kalika, she suits Pramad!!) She says I can’t see that you stay like this in your house, if Kumud throws money, then you will drink wine. Pramad gets angry and says I will tighten her, where is she. Kalika says downstairs. Kalika smiles. Sid is feeling sleepy and leaves.
Kumud closes the door but Pramad steps in. Kumud moves backwards. He asks her to stay like an material, but she is making his life worse. Kumud asks what do you want. He says who will save you today. He asks for money. Kumud says for what. Pramad says I will slap you, I can do anything today. Kumud thinks if I fear today, he will make me afraid every day. Pramad says give money else… Saras enters the scene and shouts else what… ? (what an heroic entry!!) Kumud sees Saras and is somewhat relieved. Pramad stares at Saras and asks him what he is doing her. Saras comes to him. Kumud thinks about how Saras has beaten some goons when they teased Kumud. Kumud tries to send Saras from there saying you went with mum and dad. Saras says Budhidhan has sent me here to take care of his family.
Saras says they trust me, so I can do anything to secure the family. Pramad laughs and claps saying see, he knows he is a servant and my dad gets angry on me, Saras is a pet dog for him. Pramad asks Saras to go and stand near the door. Saras gets angry. (Slap him, beat him, do something man!!) Kumud signs no, please leave expressions to Saras. Saras moves backwards. (Not expected!!) Pramad asks for money. Kumud thinks no Saras, you should not get into this, I will get the money. (Kumud should teach a lesson to her donkey hubby!!)
Pramad comes to Kumud. She is shocked to see him behind her. He scares her and takes the money. He breaks the glass. Kumud gets afraid. He says if you ask anything before giving money, I will hurt you. Kumud cries. Kalika comes there and reacts seeing the mess, she asks what happened, are you fine. Kalika asks how will you stay in this room, shall I shift you from here. Kumud says you are a maid, be in your limits, how can you come without calling, go from here. Kumud scolds her. Kalika leaves. Kumud sees the glass on the floor and cries thinking about Pramad’s words. Her feet gets hurt by the glass piece. She does Aah…. and steps out of the room. She comes downstairs and sits in the hall.
She thinks of her marriage with Pramad. She thinks Saras dumped her and its because of him she married Pramad. She says I cannot say anything to anyone, I will try to say it to myself, she starts writing on a paper. She writes about her pain while crying. She says I got the punishment of loving you, can’t this punishment be lower. Saras is somewhere looking at the moon. He feels every bit of her pain. He says I can face anyone, but not you (moon) and Kumud. She is my love and you are the witness. He says that love which I could not have. I still love Kumud, but I can never tell this to her. He looks at the moon and says I wish you could be my witness.Saras walks towards the house. Kusum and Kumari are trying to talk to Kumud. Kusum says I felt Didi was hiding something, and we cannot talk to her infront of everyone. Kusum calls on Kumud’s mobile but she does not pick it. Kumari gives the landline number. They think of calling on Budhidhan’s landline number. Kusum thinks anyone can receive it but they take the risk and call on it. Saras is near the phone as he rings the bell and goes to the phone. (So Slowly, can’t you walk normal!!) Saras picks the phone and says Hello. Kusum is shocked to hear his voice.
