Jhanak: Srishti claims that Jhanak is pregnant with Aditya's child, drawing parallels to her mother

In tonight's Jhanak episode, Arshi reveals her decision to leave the house, which deeply distresses Tanuja. She tries to reassure Arshi, insisting that Jhanak has manipulated her innocence and that Aniruddha is incapable of such actions. However, Arshi remains unable to regain her self-confidence. At this moment, Lal and Vipasha enter the room, informing them that Shubha is gathering evidence to expose Jhanak's fraud. Despite this, Arshi is terrified of the potential scandal; she fears that if the news leaks, her reputation and career will be in ruins.

Meanwhile, Srishti and Vinayak are also embroiled in a heated argument over the issue. Srishti is furious as she talks about Jhanak's accusations, unable to believe that her daughter is at risk because of this deceitful girl. Vinayak, on the other hand, has always trusted Jhanak's words and is concerned that she might be telling the truth this time as well. Srishti then draws a comparison between Jhanak and her mother, Urvashi, who once tarnished the reputation of Brij Bhushan, a famous dancer, in an attempt to ruin his career. Suddenly, a thought strikes Srishti—she begins to suspect that Jhanak is pregnant with Aditya's child while deceiving Aniruddha. Vinayak refuses to believe it, and Srishti declares that she won't let Arshi stay there.

Arshi is questioned about the nature of Jhanak's relationship with Aditya Kapoor. She explains that Jhanak shared a very close bond with Aditya, who would do anything she asked. Vipasha, too, begins to suspect that Jhanak and Aditya might be conspiring to blackmail Aniruddha. Despite their attempts to console her, Tanuja and Vipasha realize that Arshi is emotionally shattered. They then decide to investigate Jhanak's past, fearing that Aniruddha's life will be destroyed if they don't uncover the truth. Meanwhile, Shubho has already filed a case against Jhanak.

The next day, Lalan arrives at the Bose house with his mother, who wishes to meet Appu before finalizing the marriage between Lalan and Appu. The family, including Appu's parents and grandparents, warmly welcome them. However, Shubho is shocked to see Anuradha, Lalan's mother, as he recalls an old feud between himself and Lalan's father. He becomes determined to stop the marriage, fearing that his past hypocrisy will be exposed.

Shubho and Tanuja criticize Lalan and Anuradha, believing they are trying to trap Appu. They are intent on preventing the marriage, and Vipasha stirs the pot by pointing out that Lalan and his mother haven't brought any gifts. Lalan defends himself against Vipasha and Lal's accusations. Just then, Appu enters, delighted to see Lalan and his mother. When asked if she is willing to marry the poor man, Appu happily nods in agreement. Shubho, now even more worried about being exposed, vows to stop the marriage at any cost.
