Since Navrarti's is going on this episode was for Maa Durga.
This time the story was narrated by the people themselevs instead of Nitish Bhardwaj.
There is a couple living in Panchkool and have 2 children. The woman's name is shobhna and husbands name is Kishorre.

Shobna starts the story narrating she was a bhakt of durga ma right from childhood and she always prayed to mata that when i get married my husband should also be a devi maa bhakt. This wish of her comes true when after marriage she finds out her husband is also a devi maa bhakt.
many years pass by they r shown to have 2 children one maybe 10-11 and other maybe 6-7 years.
shobhna narrates that she started having lot of bad thoughts during htose months .one day she and kishore were coming back late in the night in their car and shobna comments to kishore its really dark and she is feeling scard, suddenly their car stops and kishore tries to find out whats wrong with the car , he sees a garage sign and leaves shobhna alone to find someone to help.
Shobhna is scared suddenly she sees a widow (someone draped in white saree) coming towards her on clodser look she sees it's someone who looks exactly like her and coming towards her, shobna runs out form the car and starts running in the other direction she faints on seeing the women standing agian in front of her.
At the same time kishore comes by and holds shobhna , and takes her home and calls a doctor dr informs kishore that she has been shell shocked and he has given her sleeping injection and she shud be fine in the morning.
in the morning shobhna looks ok but is still worrried , kids go to school and kishore also goes to work, in the afternoon shobhna is trying to close a window and she sees people carrying a dead body and there is a man its really windy and the white bedsheet covering the dead man's body moves off from his face and she is surprised to see its her husband kishore.shobhna is terrified and goes to mata temple, there the pandit tells her ke goddess durga always indicates future problems to her true bhakts and that this is godess indication to her that something untoward might happen in the future. pandit tells shobhna to start lighting a akhand jyot ( i am not sure whats it in english) and keep her full faith in mata .
While stepping out of the temple, some women calls out to shobhna and tells her she has some sarees which might be useful to her and shows shobhna some white saress , shobhna is angry and tells her she is suhagin adnd she doesn't need white sarees to this the women replies who knows the future u might need a white saree shobhna storms off angrily and after a few seconds turns arnd to speak to that women and she sees noone there.
Shobhna thinks a lot of things in flashback and all the incidents flash across her mind, she prays to lord durga and promises to light an akhand jyot henceforth.many months pass like this and shobhna no longer has visions of widow.
One fine day her husband returns from a business trip to Ambala, when he comes he looks really tired and tells shobhan he has a bad headache , he is trying to remove his shoes and shobhna helps him with it, when she removes the socks she sees kishore has red spots on his feet she becomes concerned but kishore takes it lightly and says it might be an insect bite, from that day onwards kishore's appetite becomes reduntant an dhe throws up whatever he eats . shobhna persuades him to visit a doctor but he doesnt take her seriously.

Again shobhna starts having visions of the widow one day while she was applying sindoor in her forhead, she runs to the temple in her house and she sees the flame in akhand jyot being put off, she gets really worried and realises that durga maa has left her kishore tries to pacify her and starts lighting the diya put the lamp wont lit at all. shobna is flustered and forces kishore to go to hospital right away.

At the hospital kishore goes thru lot of tests but all the tests are negative,doctors are unable to diagonise his condition . Kishores condition goes from bad to worse. Navratras are going on and shobna decides she wont be able to do the puja and ashtmi this year but at the same time pandit comes to her home and tells her that you shouldn't break a tradition , when you do the puja every year you should do it too and this year ask mata for a special benefit to cure kishore. Shobhna agrees .Meanwhile the drs at the hospital decide kishore needs a blood transfusion , shobhna gets angry at the drs and tells them to stop experimenting with kishore and drs tell her that this is recommendation of their counterparts in London . Shobna agrees , the blood transfusion is same day as ashtmi (last day of navrata).

On ashtmi day Shobhna gets up early and makes puris, halwa and chane , they have shown her doing the puja and it was really wonderful to see how she poured water, ghee, on mata's feet and cleaned it with her own saree. They pray to goddess and kids also pray to godess to make their dad allright.
Meanwhile Shobhna gets a call from the hospital and nurse asks her to come immediately. Shobna gets angry at goddess and tells her looks like you dont want me to do kanya pujan , she tells to goddess i will pack the prasad and give it so kanyas (small girls) in a temple nearby. She also tells goddess that u have to protect my family and u have to change ur decision .

She asks her children to sit in the car and that she will follow soon, the children are waiting in the car,as shobhna steps out she sees 9 girls standing outside her home in the verandah she is surprised . one of the girls asks her to feed them as its durga ashtmi, shobhna makes them sit and gives them tiffin (each of them) they all eat heartily and ask for more, one girl asks for water shobhna is abt to get it when one girl asks for more halva , since shobhna is in hurry she leaves the bigger tiffin with the girl and asks her to take it herself , all the girls start putting some of their halva in to the big tiffin box, when shobhna arrives after fetching water she is surprised to see no one there, only the big tiffin box is lying there. she thinks maybe its ashtmi so they went off soon, she grabs the big tiffin and gets into the car and starts driving , the kids tell her they didnt see any girls coming by shobhna tells them may be they might be engrossed in talking with each other but the kids tell her that car was parked right in front of gate and if some girls came by they wud have definitely seen them.

Shobhna is surprsed and thinking from where the girls came, she goes in to flashback where she asks one of the girls i have never seen u girls in this locality to this the girl replies how will u see we only come out on ashtmi.

shobhna goes to hospital and she sees a dead body being carried on a stretcher , she freezes and her children comeby carrying the bag which has the big tiffin and take her to the room where kishore is. the nurse tells shobna that kishore is in a very critical condirion and he cannot undergo a blood transfusion.
shobhna is very worried and goes int o flashback and all the incidents are playing in her head,, she finally opens the tiffin and wants to feed mata's prasad to kishore but the nurse comes by and stops her, shobhna insits but the nurse stops her again then the dr comes by and shobhna tells him its her vishwaas and she will feed it to kishore no matter what
shobhna feeds a small piece to kishore and he wakes up and asks for more ,he says he has never been this hungry .. dr is surprised and tells shobhna to observe for 10 mins and then feed him.
The next day Shobhna comes to hospital again, there she again sees the widow and she is scared, the widow suddenly disappears and mata's idol comes in front of her, Shobhna is overjoyed , at the same time dr comes by and asks shobhna sternly what did she feed her husband she replies it was my vishwaas and mata's prasad, dr smils and says its a miracle since kishores health improved overnight by 25%, shobhna thanks the goddess profusely within 3 days kishore's health improves by 75%.
The camera goes back to the couple in real life where kishore tells the audience this happened sometime in 80's and after that he never had any incident of even the smallest disease (any) all his life.
They get an award from Sony to visit vaishnodevi in jammu.

Very good serial especially during navratas, makes u feel that mata is all around you .
Going off the topic, i wanted to tell people living in NJ that there is a amazing durga temple in princeton NJ which has been a miracle temple for me , mata has fulfilled every wish of mine with a small prayer in this temple.
the website is www.durgamandir.com.

Thanks everyone for reading this and hope u guys like the update.

Regards
Mehak
