Pandya Store: Natasha kisses Dhawal, bringing a smile to his face

Tonight's Pandya Store episode begins with Naveli declaring that she will move in with Bittu at the new house. Natasha (Priyanshi Yadav) chimes in, accusing Dhawal (Rohit Chandel) of being mean and scolding them. Mittu turns to Dhawal, demanding to know what's happening and why Natasha ended up in this situation. He laments that he always inquired about her, only to be told she was missing. Mittu suspects that she was with Dhawal all along and demands to know what Dhawal did to cause this change in her. Natasha asks Naveli what "Jijaji" means, and Naveli likens it to pizza, making them laugh. Mittu insists Dhawal explain or he will involve the police. Naveli and Natasha scream and rush to Dhawal while Mittu pleads for answers from both of them.

Dhawal tries to reason with Mittu, embracing Natasha and Naveli. Meanwhile, Shantanu approaches Taai, distressed over Bittu's disappearance and criticizes the others for their lack of concern. He regrets coming there and resolves to take Bittu back. Taai suggests involving the police, but Shantanu is sceptical, especially since they can't reveal anything about Natasha. Dhawal confronts Natasha for leaving the house, to which she retorts that they will leave again. Mittu begs them not to abandon him. Dhawal expresses relief at having found them and implores Naveli to consider Bittu, who is new to the city. Naveli, feeling unloved, insists on staying with Bittu. Dhawal apologizes, promising not to scold her again if she promises never to leave the house. She agrees, and Mittu demands that Dhawal answer his questions before they leave. Dhawal promises to answer everything eventually, reminding Mittu of his responsibilities as the heir of the Pandya family. Natasha then bites Dhawal's hand, refusing to go, and runs off, discovering a photo of herself with the Pandya family.

Shantanu's concerns grow:

Shantanu, grappling with the situation, expresses his fear of losing Bittu. Taai corrects him, saying she is Natasha, not Bittu. Natasha, puzzled, questions the people in the photo, realizing it's her house. Mittu recalls their family moments, and Naveli wonders when these pictures were taken. Mittu confirms it's Chutki's house and that Natasha is his sister. Dhawal adds that the Makwana house is also hers. Mittu, disheartened by Natasha's current state, questions Dhawal's love and support for her amidst all the family drama.

Shantanu, feeling overwhelmed, reflects on his losses and how the Lord has deprived him of happiness. He recounts how he lost his parents and struggled with loneliness until Bittu entered his life, bringing joy and innocence. Shantanu vows to fight for Bittu, promising not to let anyone take her away from him. Mittu, meanwhile, urges Dhawal to take Naveli away, insisting that Natasha stays. Natasha and Naveli runoff, with Naveli excitedly discussing Dhawal's promises of chocolates if they behave. 

Naveli and Natasha form a bond with Dhawal:

Dhawal catches up, extracting promises from both girls that they won't run away again, and then drives them home. Pranali laments raising Naveli, while Bhaven points out that she neglected Naveli after Bunty's birth. Dhawal makes promises to Natasha and Naveli, trying to fulfill their wishes. Hetal, meanwhile, consults a lawyer who informs her that Natasha has no legal rights to the house or any relation with Dhawal and can be evicted. Natasha, in turn, thanks Dhawal and kisses him, followed by Naveli, and he smiles.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap to the next episode, Hetal tells Shantanu to take Bittu away and announces the annulment of Dhawal and Natasha's marriage.
