Malharrao gives the responsibility of administration to Ahilya for 10 days as he is travelling. She is surprised but doesn't say anything.
Ahilya is outside, donation clothes and food to the needy. Banabai comes there and sonoifys on her timing and how she's been desperately trying to be the queen and rule but others who did before her were either daughter of a king, Razia or ruling in behalf of their minor heir, Durgawati, she is just a daughter-in-law, who has no identity of her own.
Gautama definitely wants her to rest once Khanderao is back, till then she is good, but only until his return. (We got our answers🥺)
Ahilya comes there and says she shouldn't be the one when others are present to do this.
Gautama and Malharrao explain her that she is the right person for this job kyuki use "satta ka lalach nahi hai"👏 and she sees the gaddi as her father in law and husband's dharohar, she is a mere caretaker on their behalf.
Dhanaji Gunoji and Dwarkabai chat about what to do.
After Gautama leaves, Ahilya tells Malharrao about the mines blasting on the way. He calls Rangrao and asks him to investigate who did this and why. See if it is some outsider/"dusman ya aastin ke saanp". 👏
