THURSDAY UPDATE ON GANGAA, 13TH OF DECEMBER 2018

Niru enters just in time. He asks Pulkit to stop. Niru asks Inspector what he is doing? It is illegal to force anyone to sign a confession. Being a police officer, you must know that you must hear the person’s story before coming to any decision. I will help you if Pulkit is indeed a culprit. Pulkit says I really didn’t do anything. We both had gone to see a movie and were eating chaat (snacks). He hugs his father as he cries.
Niru tells Madhvi that Pulkit will have to stay in jail tonight. The bail can happen tomorrow. Madhvi is berserk. He hasn’t done anything. NIru knows it but he’s helpless. I will stay here. MLA has trapped us very wrongly. Inspector has called him, so he ends the call.
Madhvi tells everyone at home that MLA is behind it. Amma ji points out that this is what she has been
saying. The kid has to be punished for what the father is trying to do. Gangaa asks Madhvi if Sir will save Pulkit? Ratan assures his sister that nothing will happen to Pulkit. Prabha asks him not to give fake assurances to everyone. Those goons were very clear. Today it is Pulkit, tomorrow it can be any of us. This girl (Gangaa) is the root cause of all the problems! Will your father come back if this case is contested by Niru? Amma ji scolds Gangaa too. What have we done that you are after us? My son does not even listen to me anymore. Have you cast some magic spell on him? She will destroy us one day. Gangaa tries to say that she didn’t do anything, but Madhvi stops her. I don’t want to say anything wrong to you at this time. We did so much for you. My son is in jail today because of you. She walks away teary eyed. Amma ji says if I can, then I would give that CD back to those people! The story will end then.
Gangaa is sad to think that Madhvi thinks that Pulkit got caught because of her. He is such a good guy. How would he stay there? Will policemen beat him? Ratan comforts Gangaa. Nothing will happen to Pulkit. Don’t take anyone’s words to your heart. Everyone is really worried. Maharaj ji notices them.
Sagar comes to the Police station with Maharaj ji. He was insisting Maharaj ji takes him to the jail, to meet his brother once. He couldn’t stop crying. Sagar apologizes to his father, but Niru understands him. Niru calls Madhvi to inform her about Sagar. He tells her not to be hyper. I can take care of my family and kids. Niru has to leave for court right away to get bail. He turns to go when he notices Saloni coming in with MLA’s Men. She goes inside to give her statement. Constable tells Niru about her.
Niru, Maharaj ji and Sagar sit down on the bench again. Inspector goes to note down Saloni’s statement. He simply gives her the papers to sign. She refuses. Nothing like this had happened. One of the goons calls MLA. He makes her talk to her father. MLA says Pulkit is still there. Do go and see his condition once.
Constable brings Pulkit out. He takes him for some further procedure. Saloni notices him. She is pained to see his condition. She asks her father why he is doing it? He says he hasn’t done anything yet. I will have to do something if you don’t sign on the papers though. Sign on the papers without any drama. I will be saved from killing a person this way.

Pulkit and Saloni look at each other for a second. Saloni is in tears. She signs the papers. Inspector and the goons smirk. Inspector tells Niru that Saloni has given a statement against Pulkit. Pulkit and I study in the same school. He has been after me since long. He sends me cheap messages too. He took me to a secluded place the following day when I had gone to see movies with my friends. I somehow pushed him and ran away. Pulkit questions Saloni. We are friends. Can I do something like this with you? Saloni walks away from there without saying anything. Niru refuses to accept this statement as it wasn’t taken before him. Inspector says now, Pulkit will have to appear in the court first and then any decision will be made.
Gangaa wonders how to save Pulkit. What if he isn’t let off? Madhvi, Amma ji, Sir and Sagar will get all the more tensed. I will have to help Sir but how? She thinks of Amma ji’s words. She rushes to Niru’s study room to pick the CD. She days forgive me Bappa. Your Murderers won’t be punished, but at least Pulkit will be saved.
Outside, the goons get a call as Saloni sits in the car. Sagar makes use of this opportunity and goes to talk to Saloni. Please save my brother. Saloni is in dilemma. I am doing that. I am worried for him. Sagar denies it. You have blamed him falsely. Please don’t do it. Tell the officer that he is good. Saloni doesn’t have that much strength. He talks about little Gangaa who is stronger than her. Her father died in the stampede on Ganga ghaat. A lot of big people are involved. My Papa is fighting that case. My brother is being put in jail so that Papa cannot fight this case. If you don’t help him, then Papa won’t be able to do anything. You know he is a good person. Will you help him? She keeps quiet. Sagar says I understood that you are a coward. You will realise it the day something like this happens with your brother. She agrees to help him. She goes back inside with Sagar.
Niru tries to tell the Inspector that the crime hasn’t been proved yet. He can get bail. Inspector stays put. Saloni walks in. I have to say something.
The goons find Saloni missing. They are looking for her when they spot Gangaa. Where are you going? She shares that she wants to meet Sir to give this CD. Call him here if I cannot go in. We have fallen in a very big problem because of it. I will ask Sir to give it to the goons, but save Pulkit. Goon says your Sir is busy in some important work. Give it to us. I will give him. Gangaa refuses. I will give it to only Sir. The goon snatches the CD from Gangaa and starts running.

Pulkit says sorry to his father. You had to face so many problems because of me. Thank you for supporting me. Niru in turn thanks Saloni for taking her statement back on time. They notice Gangaa standing there. Niru and Sagar go to ask her what she is doing here? Saloni says sorry to Pulkit. Gangaa tells Niru that the goons snatched that CD from her and ran away. She tells him everything that just happened. Niru scolds Gangaa for taking that CD out of the house. What was the need to bring it here and then talk about it to just anyone? Do you know what you have done? Gangaa only wanted to save Pulkit. I don’t want any case. Wrong will happen with you all if you punish those who got my Bappa killed. I don’t want it. I had come to give you the CD and ask you to leave the case. Niru questions
her if everything will happen by her will? Many more people had died in that accident. Many houses were destroyed. Don’t they want justice? Tell them now that they won’t get justice. Don’t use your brain if you cannot understand something. You made a grave mistake in your childishness. We had crucial evidence, but we have nothing now. It’s all because of you. We are back to a dead end!
Ratan is trying Niru’s number, but his phone is unreachable. Everyone at home is worried for Niru. Amma ji says Gangaa returned and started crying! Now she has turned into a stone! Niru is unreachable. Niru enters just then. Madhvi asks him lots of questions about Pulkit. Where is he? I told you to listen to Amma ji, but you didn’t pay heed. Tell me where my son is! Pulkit comes as well. I am perfectly fine. They all go to him. Madhvi notices his wounds. She is very much concerned for him, but he assures everyone that he is fine. Sagar tells them that MLA’s goons beat him. This shocks the family. Madhvi walks up to Niru. Did you hear what that MLA did to Pulkit before handing him over to the police? Won’t you give up the case now? Prabha says this won’t happen. I will leave with my family now. I am not going to risk my life so anyone else can get justice. Madhvi seconds her. What’s the point of fighting for something that can destroy others? Gangaa cannot get what she has lost, but will you risk the life of your family members? Niru agrees. I don’t have any proof now all because of Gangaa. There is no point fighting this case now! He walks off.
Gangaa sits in a corner all sad. She thinks of the first time she had entered inside Chaturvedi Sadan and how he got angry at her today! Forgive me Sir. I created a very big problem for you. I only wanted to save Pulkit, but I ruined everything. I made a very big mistake.
MLA is angry with Saloni for signing a statement in Pulkit’s favour. I don’t like that guy at all. Saloni confronts him. I know everything. You are a criminal! You have a problem with Pulkit’s father and not him. You got Pulkit in jail, so that Niru Uncle won’t be able to fight the case. I cannot believe it that my father can stoop so low. He slaps her and then locks her in her room. Chandan tries to ask him to free his sister, but he sends Chandan to his room. MLA clearly tells Saloni that this door will only open when she gets admitted to a boarding school. She refuses to go anywhere. He walks back towards the living room when he notices the goons. Saloni took her statement back even when you were there? How dare you come here now? The goon gives him the CD. He watches the CD and gets happy. He appreciates the goons for doing a good job. Now the case is finished! Poor Niru!
Niru is sitting all quiet as he drinks tea. Amma ji is glad that the CD is out of the house now. Luckily, Pulkit is also back now. Prabha shows fake concern. Amma ji calls it a signal from God that the CD went out of the house. It might have brought problems for us. It is good to help others, but you have to look after your family too. Such social work won’t get you anything. He heads upstairs without saying anything. Sagar notices everything. Madhvi asks him to have food. He asks her if Papa is upset with Gangaa? Madhvi does not reply.
Sagar walks to the main door while thinking about his father’s reaction towards Gangaa. I too would have done the same thing if I was in her place. She didn’t do anything intentionally. A man holds out a paper before Sagar. Gangaa’s photo is there in the paper. Sagar looks at the photo and then at the man. He introduces himself as Gangaa’s Father-in-law. She married my son, but he died in the stampede on the ghaat. I too left her back then, but today, I have come to take her back with me. Sagar thinks of his father and Grandma being upset with Gangaa. If they find out about this, then they will send her out. I cannot let it happen. He tells Gangaa’s Father-in-law that Gangaa does not stay here. My Grandma is also a widow. She wears white saree. This girl does not stay here. He takes the paper and Gangaa’s Father-in-law’s phone number. I will let you know in case I get any info. The man leaves. Sagar is in thoughts. What if he comes again and sees Gangaa? It will be a big problem then.
Prabha and Yash are all set to leave. She intentionally shouts loudly so someone would try to stop her. Amma ji instead asks Maharaj ji to call a rickshaw as Prabha wants to go home. Maharaj ji offers to see her off outside from where she can get the rickshaw. Mehri suggests him to drop her home. Madhvi too asks her to call them once she reaches home. Prabha sadly leaves.
Sagar shows Gangaa’s photo to Amma ji. He says I didn’t win the competition, so my photo didn’t get in the paper. Now she will be all the more arrogant. I don’t like her at all. I don’t want her here! Amma ji and Madhvi try to calm him, but he doesn’t want his friends to tease him on his birthday. Send her somewhere for a few days. She gave such an important CD to those goons. Please send her away. Madhvi tries to make him understand, but Amma ji takes his side. Amma ji agrees to fulfil Sagar’s wish. It is your birthday, so you will decide what you want. We will send her somewhere for a few days. I will think about it. Sagar thinks that her Father-in-law won’t be able to take Gangaa with him as she won’t be here for a few days.

Amma ji, Sagar and Madhvi comes to talk to Gangaa. She is still sitting quietly in a corner. Sudha too walks in. She asks Gangaa to come with her. Gangaa asks Madhvi why she is sending her to that ashram? I am apologizing to everyone. Please don’t send me there. Madhvi replies that it will be just for a few days. Amma ji wants you to learn the rules of widow life there. Gangaa asks her who will take care of Sagar or play with him? Sagar rudely replies that he has a lot many friends. You should go! Gangaa wants Madhvi not to lie to her. Sir is very angry with me so you are sending me away? No one wants me to stay here. You all want to send me out of the house! Please take me to Sir. I will apologize to him and touch his feet. Please don’t throw me out. Amma ji says it will be just for a few days. Don’t
you trust Madhvi? She gives Gangaa’s stuff to Sudha. Gangaa leaves reluctantly. Madhvi confirms with Amma ji if it is only for a few days? We will call her back, right? Amma ji gives not so sure reply. Sagar mentally apologizes to Gangaa for not stopping her. If I had not done that, then you might have left us forever. This is why I didn’t stop you!
Madhvi asks Maharaj ji to give milk to both the kids. Niru is talking to Raghav ji on the phone. Madhvi tells him about Gangaa. Amma ji says I sent her to the ashram for a few days. She will learn prayers and rituals. Shraads are approaching. Niru agrees thinking that it will only be for a few days. He leaves for his study. Amma ji scolds Madhvi for not keeping quiet.
Drishti is going to Allahabad University as Niru has gotten her admitted there. Drishti hugs everyone one by one. She tells Madhvi to tell Gangaa that I have sent lots of love for her. Sagar feels bad for sending Gangaa to Ashram forcefully. I couldn’t let her Father-in-law take her. I am sorry Gangaa! Drishti leaves for Allahabad. Niru takes Pulkit aside.
Sagar waits for his van. He notices Gangaa’s Father-in-law talking to a nearby shopkeeper. He hides. What are they talking about? Gangaa’s Father-in-law leaves. Sagar asks the shopkeeper what that man was asking about? The Shopkeeper tells him that he spoke about the little girl who stays in your house in white saree. I told him that she goes to ghaat with Amma ji daily in the morning. Sagar panics. What if I go to school and he comes back again? His school van comes. He cannot risk losing Gangaa. He tells his van driver to drive off. I have some work. He wonders what he will tell his father?
Niru advises Pulkit not to go to school today because of his bruises. Your friends will ask you lots of questions. Amma ji agrees. Plus you don’t have to meet Saloni now. Pulkit says she isn’t at fault. He understands that his father does not want him to be friends with Saloni. Niru nods. She is a good person, but his father is not a good Man. Pulkit sadly leaves for his room.
