The episode starts with Bondita sitting at her study table and staring at the telephone. Bondita speaks to herself, this Anirudh babu is not at all punctual in my case, and he told me that he will call me soon but here I am waiting for a long time. Now I don’t have any patience, I will call directly and dial his number, and the phone rings. Hello, says a voice, Bondita keeps the receiver down. Someone else is picking up the phone and keeps the hand in her head, let me try once and dial again. Hello Boudi, says Batuk. Bondita asks how he found that she is on the line. Simple Boudi, you cut the call as you know that dada is not on the line, he is sleeping Boudi. Bondita smiles and tells I just called to check whether the door is locked, you know Batuk there is a lot of theft nowadays, Batuk listens laughing on the other side, so lock the door and sleep soon, I will talk tomorrow and before he could reply she cuts the call. Bondita sighs relief and thinks he is sleeping peacefully, here I am still waiting for his call, better I should also sleep soon and gets from the chair. Someone lifts her, Bondita widens her mouth and turns her head to see Anirudh lifting her and in excitement, before she could shout Anirudh plants a Kiss in her nose and signs shhh in his mouth, Bondita thinks for another kiss and closes her eyes. Anirudh senses that and kisses her again in her cheeks. Bondita’s face now looks pale due to shyness, how you did come here Anirudh babu asks Bondita in a whispering voice. Anirudh makes her sit in the cot nearby and sits with her, he turns and looks at the window, Bondita goes there and sees Kabir sitting down. Bondita in joy says, Kabir dada, Kabir who was half asleep now woke up to her voice and looks here and there, Anirudh comes near her and closes her mouth Bondita, calm down Bondita if someone sees me here then that’s it, says Anirudh. Oh, I forgot that Anirudh babu and scratches her head. Badmash Bondita, says Anirudh. Bondita keeps her mouth puff, Anirudh with his pointer finger bursts it, and they smile. Anirudh says, Bondita I came here to tell you something important and also to meet you.
Thakumaa asks KSj to think about this one more time, he says this is the right way and I am sure after that there won’t be any trouble. Thakumaa thinks something and says okay fine, I will look after the upcoming things and leaves. Ksj stands before the home temple and joins his hand and prays, duggamaa please be with us and bless our children and sheds tears, he removes his specs and wipes, a flower garland falls down in the thaal, Ksj gets relived and thinks I have got blessing now I shouldn’t back whatever the obstacles come.
Vibha lies down on the mat and looks at the ceiling recalling the things Kabir said. In parallel, Kabir in the garden where Bondita stays thinks the same thing.
(Flashback)
Vibha closes her eyes and says, yes I love Kabir babu, but Thakumaa she was about to say, Ksj stops her and says Vibha you know this path is like walking in thorns are you sure of going ahead? Vibha looks at Kabir, who looks like a sick baby. Vibha nods her head and says I want to ask certain things from him. Anirudh says you can speak and ask whatever we will wait. Vibha says to Anirudh I will ask him before you, as I consider Thakumaa and kaka as my parents and you as my dada. Kabir looks at her thinking about what she is going to ask. Vibha goes near him and says, you know this I am having a second chance of living this life and that was because of my baby and touches her belly, Kabir says, not your baby it’s our baby, Vibha gets shocked by his words, he says I accept you by who you are. Vibha says, though we get married now I can’t… Kabir stops her and says I love your soul, not your body, I will wait, and shots a look straight into her eyes. Thakumaa, Ksj are stunned hearing Kabir’s answer, and Anirudh looks proud at his friend. Kabir says, Kaka I don’t have my parents, my papa, maa and everything is my Badimamma. Will your Badimamma accept this marriage? Asks Thakumaa. Kabir says, she will accept for sure but I want her to witness my marriage. KSj says, we will arrange for that and asks them to sleep as it’s already late. Anirudh goes to his room. Kabir accompanies Vibha to her room and asks her to rest and turns, she holds his hand, Kabir turns, and she kisses him on his forehead, and goes inside her room.
(Flashback Ends)
Bondita looks without blinking her eyes, Anirudh waves his hand and brings her back to reality. Anirudh babu so much had happened just in an evening, I can’t believe this and I am really surprised that Thakumaa and KSj are supporting them. Anirudh says, yes Bondita even I was also shocked, now we have to concentrate on our work, our wedding, and Kabir’s wedding. Bondita gets up from the bed and thinks something. Anirudh goes near her and asks what happened? I am really blank on that woman case Anirudh babu says Bondita. Anirudh turns her to his side and taps her nose and tells I will speak with Kabir don’t worry and importantly the case comes to court only after a week and now tell me under which act did you charge? Bondita… Someone calls. Anirudh babu it’s Tupur, now we are caught, she drags him and asks him to hide behind curtains but it was small to hide, she then asks him to hide under the bed. Tupur knocks on the door, Bondita opens with her face smiling but eying under the bed. Tupur asks why she is looking weird and sits in the bed, Bondita too sits with her. Tupur says, Bondita I bought jewelry for Ashirbaad and asks her to keep it in the closet. Anirudh tickles Bondita’s foot, she moves in with laughter. Tupur asks is she fine? Bondita nods and tells absolutely Tupur, Anirudh does it again this time, Bondita kicks him like a calf, and he catches her leg and doesn’t leave. Okay, Bondita you sleep well, tomorrow is your Ashirbaad says Tupur, and leaves. Bondita smiles and waits till Tupur disappears, she shakes her leg, and Anirudh leaves, she locks the door and asks him to come out. You are Badmash, nowadays you are too naughty, says Anirudh. I am naughty with my to-be wife so there is no shame says Anirudh, they both laugh (RTM plays). Okay, Bondita, Kabir is waiting for a long time, so I will leave now. Bondita makes her saree as a support to get down, she asks how you got here without support. Anirudh tells it’s secret, Bondita says Achcha and blows a kiss, Anirudh mesmerized falls, Kabir who tries to catch him falls along with him on the ground. Bondita laughs looking at them.
