Most of the episode today was from the BTS, sure everyone saw the videos.
Today's theme: Ani is a smooth Criminal and Jhanak is the defiant hero.
I like how Ani is manipulating everyone to turn the situation in his favor. He just keeps diverting everyone's attention from Jhanak anytime they home in on her like a damn beacon. But disappointed like Paula ji said with his response to Jhanak calling him. I am sure he knows her nature and how she would react to things, so why did he feel the need to keep up pretenses even outside of Basu Badi? He should have realized she called in from his Dadji's phone as she doesn't have her own and would only call in an emergency situation.
Jhanak is today's hero. As I said before, Arshi maybe the bahu they want but Jhanak is the bahu they need. Basus are inherently hypocrites from the roots and need someone to call them out now and then. Jhanak did the job today and exceeded expectations. 
Love how she gave muthod jawab to Tanuja. Both her and Anjana were awesome today! Jhanak is Appu Savior for the day, and I wish that she always stands as a protective shield now and in the future. I feel sad Anjana has so much frustration that she hasn't voiced out in years; she felt the need to ask when can I even say anything? Tammi is becoming horrible day by day. No wonder her ladla is hypocritical like her. Shame as a woman for her age!
Shubo tells Anjana off on her brought up, let's see how he will react when his beti Mimi does Kaand!
I like how the conversations are framed in this serial; there is always a layer of conversations between the leads only they can understand even among the crowd of Basus. I like how Jhanak kept poking Ani with her prickly replies today, he needs to hear that every day to make sure he can repent later lol!
Ani and Jhanak are both affected by the truth of the marriage, and it is showing. As a viewer I am happy to see their POV and monologues being displayed at right point of time. Home boi is thinking of Jhanak and his marriage as Bipasha talks about his and Arshi's marriage...
Precap: New for today. Tejas is back, poor Shristi 

. I was surprised they keep changing the precaps. I like this PH's strategy of giving the weekend episode info on Monday so that people keep watching the episodes through the week.
