Kumkum Bhagya 16th July 2025 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
Bua Maa visits Sonalika to discuss her plans, revealing that she had asked Prarthna to leave Shivansh. Sonalika accuses Bua Maa of acting out of selfish motives, but Bua Maa clarifies that she has always tried to keep Prarthna away from Shivansh and wants Sonalika to become his wife. She urges Sonalika to trust her, apologizing for Shivansh’s unexpected marriage to Prarthna and assuring that her intentions are not financial but focused on reuniting Sonalika with Shivansh.
Acknowledging that Sonalika stayed in the family only to reclaim Shivansh, Bua Maa promises to help her win him back by following a plan to oust Prarthna. Meanwhile, Raunak vows to take revenge on Shivansh, seeking to snatch everything from him. In a tense conversation with Payal, Raunak denies guilt over his actions against his brother and the harm caused to Prarthna, though Payal senses his inner conflict.
Prarthna returns home tearful but finds Shivansh back, leading to a tender moment between them that enrages Sonalika. Bua Maa advises Sonalika to control her emotions and reveals a new plan to make Prarthna lose Shivansh’s trust. Raunak appreciates this scheme, eager to watch the unfolding drama.
Shivansh, haunted by childhood trauma in his dreams, resists Prarthna’s attempts to comfort him, while she encourages him to forgive his mother and heal emotionally. The next morning, Raunak boldly barges into the Randhawa house, claiming ownership of Shivansh’s dream project and home, igniting a bitter argument between the brothers. Prarthna pleads with Shivansh to leave, but Raunak threatens to evict them within two days.
Prarthna then appeals to Sonalika for help, only to be met with coldness and resentment. Sonalika tells Prarthna that since Shivansh now belongs to her, she will not intervene and advises Prarthna to beg Raunak for Shivansh’s sake before shutting the door on her, leaving Prarthna contemplating a meeting with Raunak.
The episode ends.

Cannot bear to see Malishka yet again.
Another miscasting . In no way compliments lead actor …no finesse
Never should have changed actors …
Original actor was perfect in every way
For the part …
Won’t watch now … feel like no matter
The role I see only Malishka …
My comments only reflect on the
Character role not on the human being portraying the character
I agree with you, Ekta has lost her mind and is choosing failed couples with no chemistry or compatibility. The first hero is suitable for Prarthna , while the second is much taller than her, like an older brother to her. Only his fans praise him.No wonder this fourth generation has failed.Even in Generation 2, Mugdha was like Ranbir’s older sister.Even Ekta threw them out of the show without concluding their story.
Look at the couples she has previously chosen for her hit shows, Jodha Akbar, Kasautii Zindagii Kay, Yeh Hai Mohabbatein and Pavitra Rishta, first generation of Kumkum and Kundali.Bade Achhe Lagte Hain etc.
If Malishka is not careful she will forever be typecasted …
Am still negative on the recasting…
And so soon after having finally seen the pathetic end of Bhagya Lakshmi
This portrayal of what began as an elegant woman has now gone back to too much of too much .
Only reading updates now …
I said this from the beginning, I so agree that the first hero Raunak suits Prarthna best and he was kind of blessed with her by her Mother Purvi and so what is all this change to the second hero Shivansh who has also has a great personality but just does not fit into this serial as what was the point of having two heroes and changing it in this way. A replacement directly was better than creating a contrast between the two to spoil their images and also the story.
Because this stupid writer had nothing left to write after gen 1 of KundaliBhagya and KumkumBhagya except the story of two sisters fighting over the same man or two brothers fighting over a girl.So gen 2 of KumkumBhagya had two sisters, Prachi and Riya fighting over Ranbir.And in gen 2 of KundaliBhagya, two brothers fought over the same girl.He didn’t complete their story ( two brothers) and ended the show.And now Nagpal is copying this story for gen 4, so the second hero was added to the story, despite the failure of this story in KundaliBhagya.
But it’s strange that Ekta kept this failed writer who ruined her show KundaliBhagya and BhagyaLakshmi, and even the show Parineetii on ColorsTV is now suffering like KumkumBhagya in ratings.
@Ankitaa I don’t agree with you.. Prathana and first male lead didn’t have any chemistry and I am happy they changed the hero. he is tall but he has chemistry with Prathana. another thing is the trp increase after Shivansh entry. It was 0.8 and 0.9 and now it’s 1.1.
another thing is Prashiv havs more fans than pranak.
I prefer Prathana with Shivansh to
Raunak …. And so does she !
