Mangal Lakshmi 18th July 2025 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
Desperate to reach Mangal’s office quickly, Ishana finds herself stuck waiting for a delayed cab. Just then, she overhears Sowmya saying she’s heading near Mangal’s office and, seizing the chance, secretly climbs into the trunk of Sowmya’s car. Oblivious to the stowaway, Sowmya drives off.
Upon reaching her destination, Sowmya checks her makeup in the mirror and catches a glimpse of Ishana sneaking out of her car. Growing suspicious, she stealthily follows Ishana and watches as she slips into Mangal’s office unnoticed.
Inside, Ishana sees boxes stacked up and tries to identify which one is headed for Gurgaon. She overhears Mangal telling Sunita that the big box is bound for that location. As Ishana moves toward it, she accidentally knocks over some boxes and quickly hides as Mangal investigates the noise. To avoid being spotted, Ishana hides inside the big box. Mangal instructs Sunita to pack the other items while insisting on packing the big box herself, leaving Sowmya on edge, thinking Ishana will be caught.
Just then, Kapil arrives, distracting Mangal. With the coast momentarily clear, Ishana sneaks out of the box and strategically places a suspicious packet inside it. She quickly calls Yash, informing him the job is done and urges him to delete the video. Yash agrees but only after the packet reaches his contacts. Sowmya, hidden nearby, witnesses this alarming exchange and is left wondering about the connection between Ishana, Yash, and the video.
Later, the consignment is loaded onto a tempo headed for Gurgaon. Mangal happily announces the shipment’s successful dispatch, and the employees celebrate her leadership. Kapil joins the celebration, and the women thank Mangal for her support. At their request, Mangal agrees to host a small party.
That evening, Mangal throws a celebration at her home. Her staff express appreciation for her gesture, with Kusum noting how happy Mangal seems. Mangal decides to invite Ishana to join them. When she does, Ishana asks about the Gurgaon consignment. Taken aback, Mangal asks how she knows, but Ishana casually says she remembered it being mentioned earlier. Mangal confirms the shipment was delivered on time, hence the celebration.
As the festivity continues, Sowmya walks in and comments sarcastically on the party’s vibe, thinking to herself that she will soon take control. Suddenly, the doorbell rings. Smirking, Sowmya assumes the police have arrived.
Mangal opens the door to find officers at the doorstep. The inspector announces they are investigating Pehla Swaad for drug smuggling. Shocked, Mangal and the others insist it must be a mistake. However, the inspector presents photos of the drug packets found in the delivery truck. Mangal argues that the packaging is not theirs, but the inspector declares the drugs were found with their consignment, placing them all under arrest.
Stunned, Ishana is unable to react, while Sowmya secretly recalls how she witnessed Ishana placing the drugs into the Gurgaon order and deliberately tipped off the authorities.
As the episode ends in high tension, Mangal steps forward and tells the inspector to arrest her alone, insisting that she alone is responsible for Pehla Swaad.
Precap: Adit blames Kapil for Mangal’s arrest.
