Jhanak: Choton advises Mrinalini to find a worthy partner as he plans to relocate to Delhi

Tonight's Jhanak episode opens with Arshi asserting that Jhanak is no longer needed and demands she leave immediately, threatening to call the police if necessary. Jhanak, unphased, responds that she won't involve the police for Arshi's sake but insists on her right to have her baby acknowledged by Arshi, given their familial connection. She emphasizes that despite their strained relationship, she will fight for her child's rights and seek retribution for her mother's death. Aniruddha tries to deny any wrongdoing, but Jhanak challenges him, claiming he is cheating her and that the truth won't change despite his denial.

The scene shifts to Lalon's home, where he is celebrating with a dance. Anuradha is seen applying haldi to him. Jhanak questions the setup, mentioning she thought the wedding would be at the Bose residence. Mrinalini clarifies that Choton and she had no real desire to marry each other, suggesting she is not heartbroken about it. She reveals that Arshi and Aniruddha's marriage was incomplete, which surprises Jhanak. Mrinalini adds that she didn't expect this behaviour from Aniruddha but defends Choton, stating her financial independence and the fact that Choton has never been a financial provider for her

Mrinalini expresses disappointment:

Jhanak explains that although she could have stopped Aniruddha and Arshi's marriage, she chose not to punish their family, as she values her relationships with Anjana, Bablu, and Choton. Mrinalini, who was invited by Anjana, agrees with Jhanak's sentiment. Lalon instructs Choton to get haldi applied, and Jhanak reassures Mrinalini that it is ultimately her decision whether to marry Choton, suggesting she might misunderstand him.

Mrinalini expresses disappointment, saying Choton showed initial interest but lacked the courage to follow through. Jhanak contends that Choton is a good man who will be understood better in time. Meanwhile, Choton speaks with Anuradha about her late husband's story. They discuss the financial challenges and the importance of their son, Lalon, as their true wealth.

Choton confronts Mrinalini:

Choton reassures Anuradha, telling her that life must go on and that her true treasure is her son, Lalon. Anuradha agrees and hopes for Lalon's happiness. Mrinalini advises Anuradha to take good care of Appu, praising her character. Anuradha responds confidently, saying that Appu is indeed a wonderful person and that's why Lalon agreed to marry her. She then asks Chimli to fetch Kajal, a close friend of hers who is a school teacher. Chimli mentions that Kajal might be busy and hasn't shown up yet. Anuradha decides to go get some sweets instead.

Mrinalini reminds them that they still need to bring haldi for Appu. Anuradha agrees but suggests enjoying some sweets first. Meanwhile, Lalon requests Jhanak to apply for haldi for him. Choton approaches Mrinalini, suggesting that had she married him, she would have faced ridicule and taunts. Choton tells Mrinalini that she should find someone more deserving to marry, implying that he is not the right match for her. He mentions his plans to move to Delhi for new opportunities, which worries Mrinalini, leading her to scold him. Just then, Aniruddha arrives and notices Jhanak. Lalon invites Aniruddha to join the festivities and encourages everyone to sing. In a moment of unexpected tension, Jhanak stumbles and falls into Aniruddha's arms, catching everyone's attention.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap, the marriage celebration is abruptly interrupted by the police. The inspector announces Lalon's arrest, but Jhanak intervenes, stating that Lalon cannot be arrested without a proper warrant.
