Drishti says my eyes are weak and I wear specs, but still I cannot tell this to the groom’s family as Prabha has told me not to. I am not fond of cooking, sewing, but I will have to agree with others as they want it to be this way. It is my life, but someone else is taking all the decisions for me. Maybe this is what happens with every girl. No one thinks about what she wants or thinks. Gangaa gives her Akshay’s test results. I will pass her if you say so. Bubbly sadly says it doesn’t matter. My father wants this alliance to happen. It doesn’t matter what I say.
Omkar decides to talk about all what will be given in the marriage. Niranjan disagrees. Dowry is wrong. I cannot let anything wrong happen in my house. He almost gets into a verbal spat with Omkar, when Akshay’s parents tells them that Akshay is also against dowry. He will get upset if he finds out that we are talking about it. He is our only son. We want a good wedding. Niranjan feels good. Akshay’s mother wants to hear it from Akshay if he likes Bubbly or not?
Sagar leaves from the room when Bubbly comes there. Gangaa meets Sagar. She refuses to go with him to eat breakfast and goes towards the room.
Akshay tells Bubbly about Delhi. It is a very good city and it means freedom. I am the only son of my parents, so I came back here. What have you thought? Tell me something about yourself. What are your dreams? Bubbly starts crying. She runs out of the room without saying anything. Gangaa is standing by the door. Akshay asks Gangaa what happened to Drishti? Did I say something wrong? Gangaa nods no. She says ask me about her. She shows Drishti’s result to Akshay. Drishti wants to study, but her father is pushing her for marriage. Akshay is taken aback. No one has told me anything about it. She replies that how will anyone know when they don’t ask her anything? She is a girl, so she has to do what she is told. She hasn’t cooked any of the items that are there downstairs and she has not sewn at all. She cannot see without specs which is why she dropped The tea. This isn’t right! Akshay very sweetly asks her what he should do? She folds her hands before him. Please tell everyone that you don’t want to marry her. You are a boy, so they will listen to you. He reasons that Bubbly’s problem may not go away that way neither will she be happy since her father might fix her alliance somewhere else. I have a condition if you want me to not marry your sister – you will have to marry me! Gangaa shakes her head in shock. He smiles and leaves from there.
Sagar asks Gangaa if everything is fine? She remarks that everything has gone wrong. This guy is very bad. Sagar finds him good, but she says that guy is very smart. He didn’t ask you for marriage, so you don’t mind. He asked for my hand. Sagar is taken aback.
Akshay comes downstairs. He tells his parents that Drishti is not the kind of girl that he is looking for. Everyone is shocked. Omkar looks upstairs at Bubbly. Niranjan and everyone talks in Drishti’s favour. Akshay says she knows everything. She is way too good. She cooks everything at home, so I won’t be able to go outside to have food. I like branded clothes, whereas she likes to sew. Amma ji confesses the truth in haste. It was all Prabha’s plan. We made a mistake. Akshay says my Parents made the same mistake. They spoke too highly of me. I am not a genius like your daughter. Papa got me admitted in the college by paying donation. Drishti is very talented. No one has asked for her opinion. That should happen as it is such an important matter of her life. I too didn’t realise it, but that little girl explained things to me. Amma ji and Omkar gets angry hearing Gangaa’s name, whereas everyone else is happy. Drishti is much better than me in everything, so it should be her decision actually. I will also agree for this alliance if Drishti says yes. he directly asks Drishti if she will say yes to him? Drishti is all shy. Her father is angry at Akshay’s behaviour, but Akshay tells him clearly that his decision will be acceptable to his parents. You can call and tell my father what Drishti decides. He leaves with his parents, but returns to pick up his mother’s phone. He adds that he won’t mind it if Drishti agrees to marry him and wants to study afterwards. I have done MBA, so my wife too should be a graduate at least. I think specs will suit your face a lot. Bubbly is smiling shyly after listening to his words / opinion.
Amma ji finds it all rubbish. Niranjan happily explains to her that Akshay has liked Drishti. Prabha takes credit for it, but goes quiet after seeing Omkar’s straight face. They all enjoy jalebis. Niranjan personally feeds Omkar sweets. He goes to his study room. Amma ji and Omkar look at each other.
Drishti thinks of Akshay’s words. She smiles. Sagar and Gangaa comes there. They decide to tell Gangaa’s version of the truth to Drishti. Don’t marry that guy. He is very smart. When you ran away from the room crying, then he asked me to get married to him. Isn’t he over smart? Bubbly smiles. I too would have asked you the same question if I was a guy? Gangaa tries to explain, but Amma ji interrupts her. You are upset as Akshay agreed for the alliance? Omkar yet again calls Gangaa a servant. Amma ji scolds Gangaa for talking to that guy when she had told her against it. You proved us a liar. Who are you to speak in between my family matters? Drishti tries to say something when her father angrily tells her to go out of the room. Niranjan comes there. Amma ji blames Gangaa for proving them a liar before Akshay and his family. Gangaa reasons that she only told the truth. Amma ji and Prabha had lied. Prabha adds fuel to the fire. Amma ji’s Omkar says I won’t be able to bear it anymore. One’s respect in their own hands! I don’t want to talk to servants or I would have shown her her right place today. Amma ji tries to take Gangaa away to punish her, but Niranjan tells her to let it be. Everything turned in our favour in the end. Gangaa not didn’t only help us, but she also helped Bubbly in a way. It is a good occasion, so we should let bygones be bygones. I will talk to her. She won’t do it again. He takes Gangaa to his room.
Gangaa asks Niranjan what she has done wrong? Why is everyone scolding me? I only said the truth. It isn’t wrong to speak the truth. My Bappa always used to say that I shouldn’t be scared or fear anyone to speak the truth. This is what I did. Niranjan points out that Gangaa said so only because her Bappa had told her to. You weren’t scared of Amma ji, Omkar or me? Gangaa nods yes. He continues, it is good to say the truth. You have that confidence too, but where did it disappear to, when Amma ji was stopping you from studying? Why didn’t you tell me the truth then? You were quiet as you yourself don’t want to study. Gangaa nods yes again. He explains that one cna do anything that he/she really wants to do. No enemy, obstacles can stop him. I can see the same spirit in you. You can do whatever you want to. You didn’t want to study, so you didn’t! We have decided not to push you for the same reason from now onwards. I wil tell Master ji not to come here. She asks him if he will be upset with her in case she doesn’t study? He replies that there’s no point scolding her if she doesn’t want to. Gangaa is thrilled. She runs out of the room happily.
Madhvi is confused. We cannot ask kids what they want? We have to explain to them and make them understand. You listened to Gangaa so easily? He knows that Gangaa is different from any other kids. She will come to me herself when she feels like studying. That day will come real soon. As far as I understand her, that day will come real soon when she would have understood the importance of education. No one will be able to stop her then.
Gangaa comes to Sagar’s room happily. She shares the good news with him. He is thrilled. The day went by nicely. Dadi and Omkar got angry, but Drishti is very happy since she likes the groom. He asks Gangaa what kind of a groom she wants? Gangaa gets thinking. He should be like Sir (Niranjan). Sagar says such a tall guy with moustache? She denies it. No moustache, but he should be good like him, Chota Babu! Sagar smiles. I will tell mummy that you want a groom like papa. She feels that Madhvi will get happy after hearing it. Sagar laughs at her cute answers. You are a little mad.
Omkar is reading newspaper. Drishti is doing puja (Prayer). Madhvi is happy to see her doing so. Who taught you this? Drishti says my mother used to do prayer like this. Amma ji calls her daughter Suman, a diamond. She left us at such a young
age though. You are just like your mother. I think of her after looking at you, but you too are leaving us now. Niranjan reasons that they will be happy to see Drishti happy. He turns to Drishti. We all liked Akshay and he likes you. You must have heard what he had said when he was leaving? The decision is in your hands. Gangaa is watching everything from a distance. Omkar interrupts them. The elders of the house make all the decisions of this life. What will Drishti say? Niranjan wants Drishti’s opinion as she has to spend her life with Akshay after all. Do you like him? Drishti looks at Gangaa who shakes her head at her. Amma ji sends Gangaa away. Niranjan asks Drishti again. Amma ji says Drishti will anyways feel ashamed before her father. Omkar gets up angrily. I have decided. Drishti will marry Dubey Sahab’s son. He walks out from there. Amma ji and Madhvi go to do something. Niranjan tells Drishti that he is going to court for now. I will ask you again at night. You can tell me what’s in your heart without fearing anyone. I will handle Omkar.
Omkar comes to Amma ji’s room. She gets up when she notices him. He talks to her regarding Niranjan. I am a little concerned about him. What was the point of asking for Drishti’s opinion? This is not an age for one to understand what’s right or wrong for himself. Drishti is at a very tender age. She can fall for anyone’s words in this age. That girl was instigating her yesterday. I cannot understand why you have kept her in the house. She agrees with him. She says Niranjan felt pity for her and brought her home. His wife too had to support him, so she showers motherly love on her. Sagar too has become fond of her. He never plays with anyone else now. You know about Sagar, so I thought it is ok if he is happy because of an orphan girl. He nods. I am happy if he is happy. He asks her if Sagar supports that girl a lot? She nods yes. Sagar cannot bear it if anyone says even a word against that girl. Niranjan scolds her if she is wrong, but no one dares to say anything to Gangaa before Sagar. I wonder what black magic she has done. I have given up. He asks her what if these two kids get into a fight. They are kids after all. They will follow whatever we tell them to. The kids have no brains of their own at this age. There is only one weapon to explain anything to kids – Love and Care.
Maid comes upstairs to clean, but Gangaa tells her to do it later. I am readying the kite for Sagar. He will play with me as soon as he is home. They bicker as usual. Sagar returns home, but he sits down with Gangaa to look at the kite. Amma ji and Omkar comes there. Amma ji tries to talk to Sagar about his exam and showers love on him. Pulkit walks by after telling them that his exam went fine. I am going to my room to do online chatting with my friends. Omkar is irked with him for talking in English. Pulkit apologizes saying he has no idea what it is called in Hindi. Sagar begins to go to fly the kite when Omkar stops him. I thought you will come to learn chess from me? Sagar agrees to do it in the evening. I want to fly kite as of now. Amma ji diverts him saying it is very sunny outside. Omkar lures him into teaching him smart techniques. You will learn it easily. It is a game of intelligent people. Sagar agrees and leaves with Omkar. Gangaa calls out for Sagar. She says your Mom has got a delicious meal made for you? He tells her to send it to Omkar’s room. Amma ji is happy to see her sad. Maid comes back to tease Gangaa again. You were so anxious to play with Sagar. What will you do now? Gangaa confidently gives her a befitting reply. He has agreed to do it in the evening. What if he faints in this heat?
Omkar and Sagar sit down to play chess. He talks about Niranjan. He is a very good player. You too must know about it. Sagar answers his questions correctly. She talks about the King and Vazir (commander). It is a Vazir’s religion to fight for his King, but in the end, the King is the winner. Sagar is confused. Omkar talks about equality. Fights happen between two kings. These soldiers, Vazirs, etc are merely pawns in the game. He uses Gangaa as an example intentionally. Omkar calls Gangaa a servant. Sagar denies it, but Omkar tells him to understand his importance after all. You are a King. No soldier can match a King’s order. It is his duty to follow his King’s orders. One should always keep their soldiers at a distance. You too don’t have to be so nice with Gangaa. Make her do all the work, but think of yourself as above her. Always make the other person bend down before you if you want to rule. Sagar is in thoughts.
Gangaa fix the kite alone as Sagar would come to play with it in the evening, after playing Chess with Omkar. Amma ji almost steps on it, insulting her (Gangaa) in the process. Omkar comes with Sagar just then. Sagar says he won’t be playing kite anymore and would prepare himself for the test as the role of a king. Gangaa feels bad, while Amma ji is happy that Omkar has made Sagar refuse Gangaa for the first time. Omkar tells her not to worry and says in few days time, Sagar won’t even remember Gangaa’s name.
Gangaa runs after Sagar to his room, but he tells her not to disturb him, so he could concentrate and win the test of a a king. He later says he needs a sword and Crown to practice so he could be selected. Gangaa offers to help him only if he gets her a Cardboard and scissors for it. Sagar agrees to get them.
Prabha shouts Aunt (Amma ji) thrice and Pulkit gets happy telling Drishti, that he has an idea which is Aunt Prabha. He says Aunt Prabha would help them find out who the girl really is.
Prabha enters the house and greet Amma ji and Omkar, but Omkar doesn’t reply her. She keeps repeating the greetings until Omkar nods his head in annoyance.
Sagar is on his way upstairs to give the item to Gangaa when Omkar calls him to have snacks with him. He feeds Sagar the snacks while Madhvi and Amma ji looks on. Omkar calls Maharaj ji to give the items to Gangaa instead.
Maharaj ji comes upstairs to give the items to Gangaa in Sagar’s room.
Gangaa asks for Sagar since he promised to he here with her to build the Crown and the Sword together? Maharaj ji tells her he’s eating with his Uncle, Omkar and asks her to do it instead. She’s sad. Maharaj ji thinks this girl is being fooled because She’s so small. One day, she’ll grow up to be very hurt.
Gangaa sit to build the Sword and Crown.
