Babji made a major announcement in the latest episode. He granted Mihir three months to arrange the repayment and finalize wedding preparations. Babji's happiness was obvious for everyone to see. Noina struggled to conceal her irritation. She viewed Tulsi's role in the positive change as a reason to rejoice.
Gaurav's Intervention and Immediate Plans
Gaurav quickly intervened. He instructed Babji to conduct the wedding after the three-month period. He also told him to do the engagement as soon as possible. Babji consulted with Tulsi about this plan. Mihir reminded him that they were to leave for the exhibition the next day. Gaurav again suggested that the engagement be carried out right away. Mihir stressed to Babji that Hemant and Sahil had to be informed.
Hemant's Hearty Support
Mihir spoke to Hemant about the proposal. The head of the family assured them that he heartily supported it. He told Tulsi that he valued her over everyone. He said she should move forward without the slightest hesitation. Babji was delighted with Hemant's support. He saw the Viranis' character in a positive light because of this blessing.
Noina's Growing Anger and Confrontation
With Hemant's blessing, Gaurav encouraged Mihir and Tulsi to move ahead. But Noina was becoming increasingly irate. Suchi noticed that Mihir was drawn to Tulsi more than he was earlier. Noina then questioned Tulsi directly. Rather than being glad about the engagement, she appeared upset with Mihir. She told Tulsi that she should not feel compelled either. Noina proposed that the engagement between Tulsi and Mihir should be called off. She said she did not want Tulsi to suffer.
Gayatri's Warning and Noina's Rebuke
Gayatri interrupted the conversation. She warned Tulsi that withdrawing now would result in wasting precious time. She said it would disrupt the stability of Shantiniketan. Noina rebuked Gayatri not to meddle in this matter. Tulsi encouraged Gayatri to speak her mind. Gayatri thanked Tulsi for the support. Noina said that Tulsi was not her rival anymore. She claimed she was really sad for her. Noina, being curious, questioned Gayatri. She asked why she was so concerned about someone who was not even staying with them anymore. Tulsi warned Noina not to disrespect their elders.
Dev's Dreams and Noina's Advice
On the other hand, Dev started dreaming of becoming wealthy. He imagined he could order Parth around once he had money. Then came Noina's turn to advise Dev. She told him not to get engaged yet. Dev was not interested in her advice at all. He was looking forward to receiving gifts from everyone, especially from Babji. When Noina asked him to consult his parents, he refused. He said that he didn't care what others had to say. Noina urged Dev continuously. But he was resolute in not giving in to her pleas.
The Engagement Ceremony Proceeds
Babji started the engagement ceremonies despite Noina's objections. Tulsi began the ceremony by giving tilak to Saloni. She marked her forehead with the coconut, which was required in the ritual. Parul applied tilak to Dev. She gifted him an expensive present. Mitali got another chance to mock Ritik. But he paid no heed to it. When she also started complaining, Pari and Shobha asked her to stop the unnecessary drama.
Ring Exchange and Celebrations
At last, the couple exchanged rings. The others showered them with rose petals. Kanta Ben enthusiastically suggested that next time Parul should make a large ring for Saloni. In return, Dev proudly accepted a large diamond ring. The ceremony concluded with mixed emotions, setting the stage for future conflicts.
