Why is it that he forgets his tiffin but remembers your studies?
Why does he abandon his sleep to take care of your worries?

Appu wonders what DA meant. S says her words are like riddles. Appu wonders how DA is like this that she was testing her so much when she was here and now says she’s with me.
S says maybe she wanted to test you and your patience and see how you behave in certain situations because she knows you are smart. Appu gets surprised and S covers up saying that’s what the family says, it must have reached her ears and that’s why she gave you those tasks and now this responsibility.
Appu repeatedly wonders what to do exactly. S explains maybe she wants to know if you can deal with BDK yourself and how. Appu thinks about all the incidents with Suguna and all the other tasks from DA.
Appu realizes that DA taught her a lot through those tasks. Appu says we should all teach him a lesson together. S asks I agree but I don’t know what to do either. They think and Appu says idea and thanks DA before saying anything. S asks her to tell him the idea first and she tells him and he listens to her amused.
BDK comes there and asks the family if they are still here. Sua asks if he doesn’t have any other work that he always comes here. Mai worries that DK isn’t home and Appu says don’t worry, we will fight him together.
BDK says they are so shameless that they are still here. Shashank stops him and asks him who gave him the right to say this. Appu stops Shashank and says what’s the point of asking questions.
BDK stops her and asks them all to leave. Everyone objects that this is their house but BDK tells him it’s his and tells them to leave or he knows how to make them leave. Everyone flatly refuses.
Appu says we know what you can do but your deal is with DK so talk to him. BDK asks his assistant to call DK but Appu stops him and sweetly says they brought something for him and asks Shashank to get it. He also plays along and goes to bring something while others look on in confusion except KG.
Shashank brings a bouquet and tells Appu to give it to him herself. BDK asks what is this drama? Appu says Gandhiji said love can win over anything…whether it’s a normal person or a sick person like you. KG is smirking while others are surprised.
Appu sweetly asks BDK to take the bouquet and return their house to them and asks S if she is right and he says absolutely. S says it’s a really good thing that we found out about his sickness early. BDK is confused while Appu explains that he has Cheat-o-mania
Mai asks Sua what Appu means as usual but Sua is like I don’t understand either and asks Appu. Appu explains that it’s a disease where people cheat others all the time. Sua joins the KG in smirking at them.
KG adds that you have this disease, anything can happen at any time, get it treated quickly before something happens like Appu said. Appu tells him to get well soon. Panna joins them in smirking too. BDK starts saying something but his phone rings.
Some guy on the other side says I just found out about your Cheat-o-mania…I never heard it before, but please take care.
BDK yells that he is well and cuts the call while the family is stifling their laughter. BDK goes to warn ShAppu again but his assistant’s phone rings and Shashank tells him to wait. The assistant gives him the phone which says get well soon.
Even Prachi joins them all in laughing. He gets calls from others too while Shashank says looks like they are all well-wishers. BDK gets annoyed as he continues to get calls and says you all will pay for this trick. BDK runs off in anger while Shashank tells him to take care from the back.
Srikanth and Tanmayi congratulate BB while other assistants also come and complain that she didn’t even call them to the wedding. BB says everything happened so fast. Tanmayi asks at least show us your pictures. BB shies away as they ask for his name and pics. The assistants tease her for blushing.
Shashank comes just then and asks what’s going on. The assistants says BB got married. S gets shocked and congratulates her and asks when it happened and all. Tanmayi says she’s not even telling us the name and is just blushing
S asks for name too and asks her when she got married, because she didn’t even take a break or anything. BB says just now and covers up saying just a couple of days in the presence. of God. The assistants ask for his name but BB says what’s the hurry, you will find out later.
Shashank says let it be, she will tell us soon and congratulates BB before telling everyone to get back to work. Everyone leaves while BB is smirking.
Appu is studying and complains about Shashank wanting her to study no matter what’s happening. Mai comes and says I had some work but sees Appu studying and hesitates and tells her to leave it.
Dr. Anjali comes just then and complains about Appu living outside like this and studying outside. Sua and Panna also hear it. Mai tries to get Dr. Anjali to calm down and Dr. Anjali says why is my daughter studying on the streets. Mai says you know the situation.
Dr. Anjali says you deal with your situation, why should Appu suffer? Dr. Anjali says she doesn’t like this at all and tells Appu to come to her house now. Appu says this is my house now, actually that is our house, which BDK cheated and took over. Dr. Anjali says now K are homeless, do you understand?
Appu says we will get the house back. Mai says if she wants to stay here, let her be. Dr. Anjali yells at Mai that how can you even say that, I thought you would send her home at least now, but instead you are encouraging her. Actually, I understand your plan, you want to show all this to Kaushik and get sympathy and then the whole family will come stay with us, that’s your plan right? Appu says wow, until now I thought it was my mother who was talking, who was concerned and cared about her daughter, but that isn’t it. It’s only Dr. Anjali Vartak talking here.
Mai tries to stop Appu but she continues that Dr. Anjali doesn’t care about her daughter’s happiness at all. Dr. Anjali tells her to be quiet and sweetly says I’m concerned for your happiness that’s why I’m saying all this.
Appu says have you ever tried to find out what my happiness is? My happiness is with these people and I won’t tolerate anyone insulting my people, whether it’s BDK or my Aai. Dr. Anjali laughs and says the K family has brainwashed Appu against her mom.
Sua says we never teach our daughters or DILs anything wrong ever, it’s not Kanitkar’s values
Sua sweetly tells Appu not to talk to elders like this. Appu says sorry Sua Aai, but she shouldn’t have talked to Mai like that as well. Dr. Anjali says do you see how her thinking and talking have changed, I don’t know what kind of magic these people have done on you, otherwise, you would never take your in-laws’ side who are making you live and study on the streets instead of your parents who have pampered you and brought you up.
Sua says you have some misunderstanding, since the time this situation came up, we’ve told her to go to stay at your place if she wants. Appu says but I’ve already said many times that I don’t want to go and I want to stay here with all of you. Appu tells Dr. Anjali strictly that she doesn’t want to come and wants to stay here so why are you coming again.
Dr. Anjali says I’m concerned for you and I can’t see you like this, that’s why I’m coming. Appu says no need, I have a very big family to care about me, and says I have 2 no actually 3 mothers here to take care of me so don’t worry. And also, the fact that we are all together in this situation too, that is our strength so please leave us.
Dr. Anjali says when have you ever listened to me before that you will listen now, and these people have brainwashed you so much that you think I’m your enemy. She tells Mai and Sua that if they have any shame, then send Appu to my house. Whatever is happening isn’t right, and because of you, we will also be shamed.
Dr. Anjali leaves and Appu apologizes to Mai. Sua says why are you saying sorry, it’s Dr. Anjali who has said all that. Appu says she shouldn’t have. Sua says she said all that as a mother, just her way of saying it was wrong. Mai starts thinking about something.
BB comes to Shashank’s office. BB says she needed an urgent signature from him, that it’s actually her project report and the team leader is on leave so it’s a little urgent. Shashank asks if it’s needed today. BB says yes, if I don’t have signatures, then I can’t submit it.
S says ok, tell me where to sign. S kind of looks through the papers as he signs and tells BB to check them carefully before submitting. BB makes a marker fall down as Shashank is signing and when it falls down, she touches his feet lightly in the excuse of the marker to take “blessings” and says she was just getting the pen when S feels her touch.
S gives her the signed file. BB happily takes the file and leaves while S focuses on his work. BB is smirking as she leaves.
Mai thinks it’s our fault, we should have let Appu go with her mom when she came the first time, such a pampered girl living on the streets because of us. It’s the question of Dr. K’s reputation, if he comes back and sees all this, then what? Until this house mess is solved, Appu should live at her mom’s house.
Mai packs Appu’s clothes and books when Appu comes there. Appu gets shocked when Mai says I think you should go with your mom until this issue is resolved.
Appu says I didn’t say this myself right. Mai says I know you won’t but I don’t feel right that you are living with us like this. Appu says so because of this, you are making me go away from everyone, whatever my mom said, what’s my fault in that.
Mai says it’s just our fate, no one’s fault, but you don’t need to suffer for it, your mom is right in a way too.
Appu says I can’t live without you all, and I can’t give up 3 Moms for 1 Mom. Mai says you are not used to this. Appu says are any of you? But everyone is managing because we are together, and how can I be in discomfort when all of you are with me?
Mai says still, I think you should go. When Dr.K finds out about all of this, what will he think? Appu says he will praise me, for not leaving my family, for not being selfish, and he will be proud of me.
Appu says this is my family, I might have been brought up in that house, but I learned what a family is here. And you want me to leave when my family is in trouble?
Appu pleads to Mai that she can’t do that. Mai says I’m not telling you to go forever, just for a couple of days. Appu says not even for a day, I’m not leaving.
Mai says I don’t know what’s going to happen, BDK wants 50 lakhs to give us our house back, maybe even after he gets the 50 lakhs, he won’t give us back our house. So until then, will you be able to live like this?
Appu says yes, I will, and tells Mai to trust her that no matter what, she will get their house back. Appu takes out all her books and clothes. They hug each other crying.
Appu comes to Shashank’s office and thinks how can this guy remember to tell me to study and yet forget his tiffin? How would he know what kind of tension I’m in? Dr. Anjali said so much, wonder what Sua and Mai felt. They didn’t give any different reaction, but everyone’s morale is going down, how will we fight BDK and get the house back. We have to keep everyone together but we also have to teach BDK a lesson, otherwise, he won’t listen.
Appu wonders what to do and thinks yes that’s what we should do, but no Shashank in this plan, I will take help from Kukki. Appu calls Kukki and tells him the plan and tells him not to tell anyone and to call her when everything is ready.
Appu goes to his cabin and sees him working through the window and thinks of some naughty idea. She knocks on the door and asks for permission in a falsetto voice and Shashank says yes and doesn’t even pay attention to who entered as he continues working.
Appu put the tiffin on his desk and says “I brought something for you sir” in her own voice. Shashank gets shocked seeing her there. Appu says he forgot his tiffin box so she brought it. Shashank apologizes and says he will eat later.
Appu denies and tells him to eat now. S says he has to submit something soon. Appu says I don’t care and says she brought hot food and tells him to eat quickly and drags him to the canteen.
Shashank is eating there with Appu (Tanmayi and 2 other assistants are also there). Appu says she will eat after she goes home. Shashank asks about her studies and says I know your mood goes off when this topic comes up, but you have to study. If you have any doubts ask me, your exams are near and you have to study in these final days. Appu asks who talks about studying while eating.
Shashank says I don’t know that but it’s very important for you to get the first class, forget about family problems and focus on studying. Appu irritatedly says if that’s what he’s gonna talk about, then she will leave.
Appu goes to get up when Shashank holds her back and says sorry. They continue to bicker a little when BB comes there and Shashank signals
Appu to see BB. Appu says hi to BB and ignores her. Shashank tells Appu to congratulate BB. Appu asks why and says did she get a new job, is she leaving the institute, congratulations. Shashank says marriage, BB got married.
Appu gets shocked and sees BB’s sindoor and wonders BB got married secretly, does Atti know, I should ask her. Appu doesn’t believe it at first but then gets happy and congratulates BB.
Appu says you didn’t say anything but anyway, you got married, that’s big good news for me. BB asks her if she really is so happy. Appu says obviously, even if you don’t think about me as your sister, I still think of you as my elder sister, now you are married, and you will settle in your sasural. I will get a party from Atti for sure.
BB asks why Appu is bringing Sarika in the matter. Appu goes to say something but then gets Kukki call and tells BB they will talk later, I have to leave. Shashank asks her where she’s going, Appu says something urgent.
Shashank tries to stop her but she leaves. BB smiles and sits with Shashank and asks if it’s ok if she gives him company. Shashank says ok and asks if he should order something for her, BB says she’s full. Shashank continues his meal while BB is smirking.
BDK continues getting calls about his disease and he gets pissed. Appu, Amey and Kukki come there and say they came to check up on him. They give him another bouquet and he gets pissed and tells them to stop their drama. Appu says he shouldn’t be yelling, health will get worse.
BDK says he doesn’t want to meet them and tells them to get lost. Kukki gives him the 20 lakhs and says we came to make you understand nicely one last time. Take this money and gives us our house back. Appu says not just the house, tell your goons to put back all the things they threw out properly.
BDK says I’ve said it already and I’m telling you finally, that is my house so leave it. The smell of these flowers and the calls have already heated my brain so don’t test me more. Appu says she understood that BDK has an issue with the flowers but don’t worry we have another option. We have the best option.
Appu brings out the dung from Amey’s backpack and makes BDK smell it. Appu rubs it on his face as Amey and Kukki hold him back and she tells him it’s our Saguna’s dung. Appu says you threw us out, you think very badly of us, we are just washing it all off and cleaning your heart. BDK says this is too much.
Appu says exactly, your sins are also too much, but don’t worry, our DA says the dung cleans everything and health also gets better. BDK goes to wipe off the dung when Appu stops him and asks what’s the use, your character already has a big stain on it, because of trapping DK. Do something about that, if you give us our house back, then it will get cleaned.
BDK calmly says you did not do right, Appu says that’s what we are also saying. Kukki says you have one more chance, take this money and give us our house back. BDK pushes Kukki and says you didn’t do well in my office, you will have to pay for it, especially this arrogant girl, I won’t leave you all, get lost.
Appu says get well soon. Kukki says we will leave this money here, maybe by seeing it, your mind will change. They leave and BDK thrashes everything on his desk and calls for security.

The episode reminded me of Lage Rahe Ho Munna Bhai which happens to be the first movie that I watched rather was made to watch in the theater years ago because apparently, our school had taken us to the show. I still don’t understand why. That aside, I am not sure if I can call this an interesting episode. An overwhelming one? Perhaps I can.
I am glad that the episode began on a light note with Mr. and Mrs. Kanitkar trying to solve the na ulgadnara koda named Aatya-Aaji together. I have always admired how Shashank seldom ignores whenever Apurva is stuck, upset, or lost in thoughts. He always makes it a point to poke her to get her to say aloud what’s going on in her mind.
It was surprising for me to have Apurva acknowledge that Aatya-Aaji’s tasks taught her some important life lessons. No, of course, you people already know from my Aatya-Aaji track review that that was exactly how I saw the whole task thing but that was my perspective as an outsider who was not in that situation.
It is usually easier to see the perspectives of everyone when you are not in that situation or attached to that particular scene of life.
I definitely did believe that sooner or later she will see that those tasks, though annoying and awful, taught her something that she might have never learned otherwise but this soon? I didn’t expect it. It was cool though.
It is not easy to recognize and acknowledge a blessing in disguise because we are generally too consumed by pain and discomfort to even consider that there could be a different side.
Having said that, it is unfortunate that Apurva probably didn’t understand things the way she was meant to understand them. Will come back to it later.
The highlight of this scene was Bayko coming up with an idea and Navra listening to her in sheer admiration with – what an idea, Madam Ji. Yahi hai idea jo badlega humari duniya. xD.
Shashank agreeing to Apurva’s ideas is such a rare sight. Yaha to not just he agreed but the way he was looking at her when she was explaining was erm I can’t even put it in words.
I couldn’t help but chuckle when Shashank said Aatya-Aaji probably gave you tasks to test how you would react in tough situations and Apurva was like but why me and Navra replied what do you mean by why you? Because you are intelligent and Bayko smirked and I laughed as she said you calling me intelligent, Khadoos? And Navra being Navra quickly covered up with that’s what everyone says.
Come on, Mr. Kanitkar. Sach bolne se aapki shaan kam nahi hone wali.
Kabhi to maan lo,
Chhupane se award nahi milne wala ab to jaan lo.
Truthfully, when I had heard about the whole Gandhigiri bit, it didn’t impress me. I found that lame to be precise. Even the bouquet and the get well soon part until DK started getting calls. That was when I realized that okay, perhaps it’s not that lame.
The strategy here seemed to be – annoy your opponent, keep his mind busy with irritation and meanwhile plan your next move. Aatya-Aaji had told Apurva the same. He is testing your patience. You test his. Apurva seemed to have taken it very seriously and it actually worked.
They successfully managed to rile DK up but failed with what they did next. Making DK meet cow dung was a stupid thing to do because it wasn’t going to make any difference but was just going to make DK more aggressive than he already is. Now again, it’s not about right and wrong. It’s about making calculated moves because you are already trapped and can’t afford to make choices that would worsen the situation.
Think of it like this – samundar mein gir gaye aur haath pair nahi chalaye to doob jaoge lekin agar daldal mein fase ho to jitna haath pair chalaoge utna hi aur faste jaoge.
Every situation is different. You can’t be reckless when you are already trapped. The whole cow dung bit was nothing more than an impulsive action taken without considering the consequences and repercussions of that choice
I can still digest Apurva coming up with this plan because her mind is capable of thinking such things and I don’t think she has encountered people like DK before to know what this could lead to.
However, it’s beyond me how Amey and Kukki chose to be a part of this. I would like to believe that they have seen enough life to know that this was going to backfire and it did. Sigh.
And as if this wasn’t enough, we have Bitter Babe making her marriage official. With her imaginary husband, I repeat. Shaking my head. I was indifferent to the scene. I am lying. I was rolling my eyes all along.
Anyone looking at Shashank’s happiness after hearing the news that she got married and the way he congratulated her can say that this man has no feelings for her. Even a nine-year-old can understand this. Anyone and everyone except for Bitter Babe.
Netra Ma’am loves being delusional… can’t do much about it.
Netra Ma’am touching his feet though. Arey koi inko batao daily soaps thoda kam dekhe. Ye sab humse nahi dekha jata. 😅😂 Ah, the maddening urge to hope for Bitter Babe’s transfer though! Lekin wo to hone se raha. Sigh.
I am upset and mad that Shashank signed without thoroughly checking what papers they were. Back to being Shashank Hypocrite Kanitkar, no? Mr. Kanitkar seems to have conveniently forgotten how he had yelled at his wife – asa na wachta kon sahya karta? What about that now, Mr. Kanitkar? Like what?
The scene could have been better. Had Shashank been in a hurry or something ( it would have been still hard to digest that Scientist of the Year signed any papers without thoroughly reading. ), could have tried to understand but this… was stupid.
You’ll have to pay for this mistake, Mr. Kanitkar and I ain’t gonna feel bad for you.
PS: I guess, all of us strongly feel that it was the marriage certificate that the file had. I did feel that Shashank was reading a bit but I am not sure. If he did read everything and it didn’t have the so-called marriage certificate, I’ll be really glad but if at all he didn’t carefully read and he did end up signing the marriage certificate – to kya hi bolu main…
Dr. Anjali Vartak returned to make some hurtful accusations about Kanitkars and Apurva, as usual, couldn’t stand them. I am not going to lie – I loved the scene. I don’t despise Dr. Anjali Vartak though she does get annoying and appalling at times.
Like Suva-Aai and Mai accepted later, it is a mother’s concern. I definitely do not deny that Dr. Anjali is extremely selfish and self-centered who clearly fails to see where her daughter’s happiness lies but I personally feel that she does care about Apurva. Of course, her ways can be acceptable to some and unacceptable to others though.
It’s not that I like her but I don’t hate her either.
Apurva has always stood up for Kanitkars against Dr. Anjali Vartak but this was something else. Apurva tried to be calm but the moment Dr. Anjali started attacking Mai was when Mai’s Appu couldn’t take it anymore.
This also makes me say for yet another time that if Thipkyanchi Rangoli did not have the cast that it has, the show wouldn’t have had the kind of impact that it leaves on the audience. The nuisances are everything.
When Suva-Aai interrupts Dr. Anjali and tells her that they have been telling Apurva from the very beginning that if she wants… she can go and stay at her parents’ house and Apurva confesses for yet another time that she has said time and again that she does not want to leave them and go anywhere – the moment Apurva starts speaking is the moment Suva-Aai has this small smile playing on her lips as if saying to Dr. Anjali – see, this is what I was talking about.
That was 💜
When Apurva says that she has a lot of people to care about her here, she says she has two mothers but quickly adds that she actually has three. She counts Panna Kaku even after everything that has happened and Panna Kaku hears it. I hope this makes her introspect a bit.
I really like how Suva-Aai doesn’t let Apurva apologize on behalf of her mother and overthink the matter. However, it’s not Apurva but Mai whom Dr. Anjali’s words had thrown into the pit of overthinking.
This was quite emotional. The way Mai recalls Dr. Anjali’s words, starts packing Apurva’s bag, Apurva comes and realizes what she is doing, she firmly refuses to go, shares what Kanitkars mean to her, Mai makes her see the possibility of never getting the house back, Apurva promises to bring their Wada back to them and takes her stuff out of the bag – overwhelmed me and this is a peek into why Apurva pulled the careless cow dung act.
Will touch on this more in the next reviews.
Khadoos pan na. Jagaat kahihi challa aso pan mi abhyas karaycha. Kaaaa?
Asa kasa aahe ha Khadoos? Office la late hot astana pan tyala maza abhyas aathavla pan swatacha tiffin gharich visrun gela.
Samjun ghya, Mrs. Kanitkar. Aata tari samjun ghya. What does the fact that he forgot his own tiffin box but remembered your studies even when he was getting late say? Does it give away his priority? Which is you?
Shashank will always choose Apurva between Shashank and Apurva. If the choice is between you and him, you’ll be the one he’ll be choosing the way his mind chose to remember your studies instead of his tiffin box now.
And dramatic Mrs. Kanitkar got to the institute to knock on her husband’s cabin in her dramatic voice. 😂 Shashank’s joy upon the pleasant surprise though! Infectious.
I love how Mr. Kanitkar apologizes for forgetting the tiffin because of which she had to come to the institute. It’s always beautiful when you don’t take the efforts of your people for granted.
I’ll eat later. I have to submit this-
I don’t care about your submissions. What I care about is you so keep quiet and have your food first.
Every time Apurva’s bayko mode gets switched on, my laughing mode gets switched on. 😂 Nantar nahi, aata kha. Aata mhanje aata kha. Bayko is very sweet and Navra is thoughtful. Even while eating, he remembered her studies.
24×7 he thinks of you.
It does get annoying but because Apurva isn’t serious about her studies, Shashank has to be. He has been emphasizing the seriousness of her first class lately and the upsetting thing is that I feel when Netra will get aggressive in her game, Apurva might just feel that he wanted her to get the first class so that she would walk out of his life soon and he would get to marry Netra when the only reason he wants her to get the first class is for her bright future, her self-esteem and accomplishments.
I sincerely hope this doesn’t happen though.
When she gets up to leave and he holds her back saying okay, sorry, I am saying nothing, please sit though. I love when Navra accepts his defeat in front of Bayko when she gets mad. Makes him look very sweet to me.
And Thipkyanchi Rangoli team really cares about its audience. Itni sweetness se diabetes na ho isliye Bitter Babe ko bhej diya. Balance banane ke liye. 😂
The way Apurva’s mind instantly got working when she got to know about Netra’s marriage was good.
If only Shashank’s mind could ask those questions, he would have saved himself but kya kare.
Thank you this update, I need it badly after appu ‘s cow dung stunt . But whatever she did without thinking conscious.
That was a reckless act indeed.
