Highlights:
Radhika doubting Amma's logic
Devki accept everything as God's will
RaDev wedding photographs arrive and tension time for Vishđ
Brij Mohan continues his lecture. He says that when a married woman puts sindoor on her head and bows in front of God then God automatically blesses her husband seeing that sindoor. When she wears the mangalsutr it's a protection for her husband and the ring in her toes is (somehow) supposed to bring prosperity to her husband. Amma is looking uncomfortable. He says that if this girl is now living a life of an umarried girl then it will do harm to her husband only and he asks Devki who will you blame for it now. He says its 'ghor kalyug'. Radhika is looking worried (I think for Dev). Brij Mohan leaves and Devki notices Rads standing there. Then her eyes focus on Vish's photo behind her. Amma also notices Rads and tells her why she was eavesdropping when she has so much work.
Vish comes out of the shower and notices Dev setting up to sleep on the sofa. She wonders why he is so weird since he was the one desperate to get married but now he doesn't behave like a husband. But she decides its only good for her. The phone rings and Dev picks up.. its Devki. He hands over the phone to Vish and leaves. Devki asks Vish if she is happy and whether all the rasms after marriage were completed. Vish says yes and then thinks whether she should tell Devki about Dev's behavior. Then decides that if Devki gets worried and takes her away from here then her plan will fail. Vish complains that they never leave her alone and keep putting her in the middle like she is some animal from the zoo (maybe..could be..possible). Devki advises Vish that the rasms are very important as it means that the family as accepted her into the family and she should follow all the rasms and fulfil her patni-dharm and take care of her new family. Deepika comes there and snatches the phone from Vish and starts yapping away and reassures her that Vish is fine.
Devki hangs up and Amma asks if she is happy now after talking to Vish. Devki smiles. Amma says Vish is happy there because we didn't commit any crime. She says she has more knowledge about dharm-karm because she learned from experience and Brij Mohan learned from books. She says the marriage with Radhika was sanketic only and besides Dev loves Vish not Rads so it's the right thing they did.
Briju brings home the proofs for the wedding pictures and tells Dev to select the best ones for the album. Dev is standing lost and Birju starts talking while he is setting up the photographs on the table. There is a photograph of Radhika's face in the water. But Birju doesn't see it as he is looking at Dev while asking him if he is still thinking about that imagination. Dev says that if he has only seen her face he might believe that she is imaginary but he has also touched her. Birju stops him from saying more because he sees Vish coming. Vish sees the photo of Rads and removes it from the pile before Dev or Birju see and hides it behind her back. Dadi who is standing behind her takes the photo from her hand. She doesn't look at it but puts it back in the pile face down and tells Birju that Dev and Vish will get punished for going through the pictures without her. She tells Birju to take all the photographs to her room and she'll look at them first. Vish looks like she's going to have a heartattack. She wonders how she'll get to Dadi's room now. Dev's family takes them both to another pooja and Vish is thinking that if Dadi sees that photograph then the movie of her shaadi will flop in one week.
Rads is feeding the cows absentminded and thinks about what Brij Mohan said. She wonders whom to believe. Amma who says her marriage is invalid or Brij Mohan who never speaks against the shashr. Devki comes to her and tells her that somethings are beyond their control and we should just take it as God's will.
Vish does the pooja but is distracted about the photo. Vaishali explains that mahalaxmi's pooja is done for the three blessings of happiness, prosperity and children. Mrinu comes there and says that she too did the pooja but laxmi ji forgot to grant her the third blessing but Vish can try her luck still there is no guarantee for the third blessing. Dev is in his brooding mood. Dadi tells Mrinu to not say ashub things and Mrinu says no ashub will happen now that they have their choti bahu. Vaishali tells her after the pooja to take Dev's blessings (ok I am like pissed off.. this is the third time the woman is taking her 'husband's blessing.. what era do they live in??????).
Mrinu notices Vish's distraction and watches as she is bending to touch Dev's feet, Dev drops his cells phone and moves away from her. Vish thinks that today might be her last day here as Dev already keeps away from her and when he finds out the truth he'll drop her like a fly. Mrinu comes to her asks if everything is alright. Vish comes to Dadi's room and starts searching for the photographs all over the place. Soon Mrinu joins her and asks what she is searching for. Vish is shocked. Dadi comes there and Mrinu tells her that choti bahu was searching for something in the room but since she has never come to this room before this we can't assume that she left something behind and came to search for it. Vish is in a pickle and END>
Precap: None.
Comments: I am very angry today. Devki was a huge disappointment. And the whole "touch your husband's feet" got me even more angry. Such backward thinking.. I can't digest it. Radhika better learn to trust the sane people in her life instead of the garbage that Amma feeds her. I so want her to claim her right on Dev.
