Saras and Kumud 25 February 2025: The Episode starts with Saras and Kumud meeting at the terrace. Saras looks at her. She says Kalika ran away, now everyone are worried, they got insulted and Pramad, even he is in pain, and this happened because of me. Saras says its not your mistake. She says its my mistake, I tried to save my relation. Saras says Kalika knows only to cheat and she was destined to go from this house.
Kumud says she ran away because of me. She says I have hurt everyone. Saras says did Kalika think once about everyone before running away, now Kalika is not in your way, go ahead and change Pramad. Kumud says I wanted Kalikla to have a good future, but now I can’t face myself. Kumud cries and leaves. Saras says Kalika knows I m Saraswatichandra, don’t know what she will do now.
Kumud and Saras hears some noises. Everyone are shocked to see Pramad’s anger. Budhidhan asks whats happening. Pramad says I would have done this before. He says enough now, why did you gave me birth if I don’t have any right to breath on my own, you decided everything about me. He says you think of me as my slave but I won’t let this continue.
Budhidhan asks what will you do now. Pramad throws everything and says if anyone forces me to do anything, then everyone will get an answer, and Kumud too. Kumud went against Kalika and because of her Kalika left home. Pramad is about to hurt Kumud and Saras stops him. Everyone are shocked. Budhidhan says I will give you an answer, but I m the head of this family, and about Kalika, she is the daughter of the servant but I thought of her as my child. I asked her is she ready for this marriage, she said yes, then Kumud called the groom’s family.
Pramad’s mum says what happened to you when she left, you are pointing at your wife for a maid. Why? Pramad tells about his childhood and how Kalika supported him. He says now I will die hungry and only you guys will remain. Pramad leaves in anger. Pramad’s mum faints and Budhidhan holds her. Kumud picks the glass pieces. Saras says will Pramad change, any hope. Kumud says I knew it, he will take time.
Saras says Pramad does not know what he is doing. Saras says how can he get angry on you for such a girl. Kumud says Pramad does not love Kalika, he was habituated to her but will change now. Saras says please take care of yourself. Kumud gets hurt by the glass and Saras cares for her. He thinks of their old moments. Kumud leaves. He stops her and says whenever I got hurt, you were there to share my pain but I could not share your pain because I gave you this pain. Kumud says its not like that. Saras says your wounds are becoming more deep because of me. She says no, when I was small, I could not bear any pain, but today I can bear anything and I got this strength from you.
Kumud thinks how to face Pramad and stops outside the door. She signs Saras. They talk via signs. Saras signs go ahead without any fear. (So sweet!) Saras leaves. Kumud comes inside the room and tells Pramad that she brought food for him. He gets up from the bed and Kumud is afraid. He sits and have food without uttering a word.
He taunts her and says Kalika had the courage, she was a maid, but she fought for herself, compare yourself with her, she left the house for her self respect and look at yourself, I misbehaved with you and you are bearing all this silently, you don’t have any self respect. He taunts Kumud’s upbringing. Kumud gets angry. He says you and your family, it seems are shameless. Badimaa’s husband left her, Saraswatichandra left you and Naveenchandra left Kusum, it looks like a ritual in your house. He says so your dad got you married to a drunkard like me, else who would have married you. He says I should agree that your parents are so shameless, they saw everything still did not take you with them.
Kumud says Pramad…. He asks what happened. He taunts Kusum and Kumud being characterless. Kumud says enough, I can’t hear any word against my family. Pramad says whats their goodness. Kumud says its their goodness that I m still here, they have taught me to safeguard my self respect.
She says when you made me drink wine and misbehaved with me, I would have gone the same night, but my values made me stop here, because I think of your parents as mine, so I did not break their trust, my dad taught me to fight for myself. She says Kalika cheated everyone and lied to you. Pramad is shocked. Kumud says Kalika’s lie is still flying in your heart, so she did not tell you before running away and I m still in this house with you. She says you want to know the difference between me and Kalika, its the difference between truth and lies. She says I m ready to bear anything but I can’t hear anything against my self respect because my family is my respect.
Pramad gets up and hurts Kumud. He says so you can bear everything, right, so lets see your guts. He closes the door and misbehaves with her asking her to become his wife. He throws her on the bed and forces her to…. Kumud runs away and falls on the bed and gets hurt. She says leave me and shouts. Pramad is unmoved. He says see now what happened, how will you walk now. Kumud picks up a plate and hits his head and says I m Kumud, not Kalika. She opens the door and comes outside. Pramad says see, one day I will ruin your guts. Kumud says what you did with me, if anyone does this with your sister, what would you do.
Pramad saying Kumud that he will ruin your courage one day. Seh asks him what if anyone does like this with your sister. Pramad leaves. Saras sees him and hears Kumud’s voice. He sees Kumud wounded and is shocked. He runs to Kumud and says enough Kumud, now you have given your test but Pramad does not deserve you, I won’t leave him alive today. Kumud says no, now I will do what I have to. She says please…. and walks without his support. She says he did not want to do this marriage. She thinks about Badimaa’s words. Saras follows Kumud. Kumud says he thinks of me as a burden and thinks about Vidyachatur’s and Saras’s words.
Pramad’s mum sees Kumud and hugs her. Everyone come in the hall. Kumud cries and says Maa…. She says I have lost, I could not win, forgive me, before I lose everything, let me go from here. Budhidhan gets angry. Kumud says let me go, next time maybe I won’t be able to save my respect. Budhidhan says enough, and tells his wife that we have given enough chances to Pramad, but now there is no hope.
He says till when Kumud will bear all this, we don’t have a right to stop her. He permits Kumud to leave. Kumud cries and hugs him. Saras leaves. Kusum looks at him. Pramad is on the terrace, drinking wine. He laughs and says she wanted to keep Kalika out of the house, and see I have made her leave this house before the day ended. He says she wanted to become my wife, but now she is leaving. Saras comes to Pramad and says you have beaten her like an animal, and it would be less if I beat you, but I don’t want to, as you won’t change, laugh as much as you want, because after Kumud leaves, you are going to regret.
Kusum hugs Kumud and the sisters cry. Alak says its good that you finally spoke up, I m with you in your decision. She says you will regret if you don’t go today. Pramad tells Saras that I did not learn to regret, are you angry on me. Saras says no, I pity you. He gives him a paper and asks him to read. Pramad thinks about Kumud’s words against Kalika. Saras says you are a unlucky man, the one you trusted has ran away and you have made your wife leave. Pramad is shocked seeing the papers. Kusum has packed Kumud’s luggage.
Kumud leaves with the bags while Alak looks on. Kumud thinks of her confident words and how she entered Pramad’s house being his bride. Alak reminds him about her Grah Pravesh and she says I brought Naveen here the same day, and its strange Naveen is going to take you back from here. Kumud looks at her room and is upset.
Saras is ready waiting for Kumud near the car. Kumud meets everyone for the last time. She hugs her in laws. Kumud cries. Kusum, Kumud and Saras leave from the Budhidhan’s house. (Finally!!) They are on the way and Kumud is still crying. Kumud is thinking about Pramad’s misbehavior with her. She thinks this is my mistake, I would have stopped Pramad when he misbehaved with me for the first time.
Saras sees her crying. Kusum asks him to stop the car. She says I will bring water. Saras says I will bring it. Kusum says I will go and leaves. Saras gives tissues to Kumud. Kumud takes it and feels pain in her wound. Saras feels her pain and asks is it paining a lot. He says take this medicines. She says no, I m fine. He says don’t be so much upset that you break up, he says it would have been better if I lost and you won changing Pramad. She says I would have changed him but not losing my self respect. Kumud is disheartened. The mandir’s bell rings and Saras and Kumud visit the mandir. Kumud prays while Saras looks at her.
He too prays. The pandit wishes the Lord fulfills their every wish. The pandit ties a thread on Kumud’s and Saras’s hand. He thinks they are a couple. He gives them the prasad. Kumud and Saras leave from the mandir. Kusum tells the Pandit that they are not husband and wife. The pandit says I can tell that their hearts are linked, their fate is also linked so they came here together. Kusum thinks of her words which she told to Kumud and Kumud’s belief in Lord.
Danny packs his belongings and leave from Vidyachatur’s house. Saras and Danny do not see each other. Saras brings Kumud to her house. He says I am support you only till here, can’t go ahead. Kumud says my dad said that this house is always open for me, but whatever happens now, I have to face it alone. Kumud walks towards the house as Saras looks on.
