Shiv Shakti (Colors) 23rd October 2025 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
Devi Parvati gazes at the divine flower in her hand and recalls Mahadev’s words — that she must return to him before the flower withers. Realizing she is trapped within the enchanted forest, she prays earnestly to Mahadev, pleading for a path to escape. Overwhelmed, she begins to hallucinate and sees a vision of Mahadev, who tells her that he holds the solution to all the troubles faced by his Shakti. He extends his hand toward her, and just as she reaches out to grasp it, the vision fades away. Heartbroken, Devi Parvati murmurs that even illusions seem real when one’s heart longs deeply.
Meanwhile, at Kailash, Kartikeya expresses his distress to Mahadev, saying he cannot bear to see his mother in pain and vows to bring her back. Ganesh joins in, suggesting that they should make Daruka realize her mistake — and if she refuses to listen, they should use their divine powers to stop her. However, Mahadev calmly stops them, explaining that Daruka will not heed their words and instructs them to follow his guidance instead. Observing his composure, Lord Narayan asks Mahadev how he remains so calm despite the circumstances. Mahadev replies with profound wisdom, saying, “To obtain amrit, one must first drink poison,” symbolizing the endurance needed before enlightenment.
Back in the forest, Daruka brings food to Devi Parvati and urges her to eat. Just then, a woman arrives, complaining about her son’s behavior. Instead of helping, Daruka cruelly tells the woman to punish her son herself and warns her not to approach again with such trivial matters. Watching this, Devi Parvati rebukes Daruka, reminding her that the powers she received were meant to protect and uplift women, not to intimidate them. But Daruka dismisses her words, arrogantly saying that Devi Parvati shouldn’t interfere in such minor issues and should instead relax and enjoy the forest. Disheartened, Devi Parvati glances at the flower in her hand — now beginning to fade — and silently calls out to Mahadev for help.
Meanwhile, in another realm, Kali speaks to Diti, mocking the situation. He declares that Daruka’s mind has been consumed by pride and arrogance, and because of that, the divine union of Shiv and Shakti will never reunite. His laughter echoes through the void, filled with malice and satisfaction.
Elsewhere in the forest, Daruka tends to her husband, Daruk, bringing him food and assuring him he need not fear her since she is his wife. She urges him to eat and tell her how it tastes. Curious yet cautious, Daruk asks how long Devi Parvati will remain there. Hearing this, Daruka becomes alarmed and defensive. When Daruk tries to calm her, she loses her temper and burns the food in anger. She then declares that Devi Parvati will stay in the forest forever. Realizing her outburst, she quickly turns to Devi Parvati and apologizes for showing anger in her presence, adding that she cannot imagine life without her and needs her to stay by her side always.
At Kailash, Lord Narayan observes that Devi Parvati is enduring a divine test. Mahadev agrees, explaining that Devi Parvati must learn to distinguish true devotion from blind obsession — for devotion, when clouded by ego, has the power to destroy everything. Concluding that the time has come, Mahadev decides to bring Devi Parvati back and sets out toward the forest himself.
Later, Devi Parvati hears Mahadev’s voice faintly calling to her. Soon, Mahadev arrives at the edge of the forest in disguise, appearing as a humble flower seller named Bhola. He notices the magical shield guarding the forest and observes it carefully. Daruka sees him and suspiciously asks who he is. Bhola smiles gently and replies that he is a flower seller and a devotee of Devi Parvati. Impressed by his humble demeanor, Daruka allows him to enter the forest. Bhola thanks her and requests permission to meet Devi Parvati, saying that he, too, wishes to offer his devotion to the goddess.
Precap: Daruka first sets her sights on conquering Indralok, and after that, she decides to make Kailash her next target.
