Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani 22nd February 2017 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
Mummy, Rani and Rekha run out of the palace. Naina turns to look around, thinking she is leaving with tears in her eyes. She was stopped as her dupatta was stuck in Raja’s photo frame. She holds it crying as she speaks she is leaving. The doors of palace were shut for her, Mummy and Rekha run backwards as Rani thinks its Raja’s goons who have attempted to stop her from leaving the palace. Mummy and Rekha say the door is unlocked from outside, Naina says if it’s open from both inside and outside why it doesn’t open. Rani stands behind Naina and says she can’t leave. Naina rubs her eyes, and slaps her face; then shivering out of pain she stammers and requests her to let her go, she would never return.
In the room, Nani scolds Laila asking if she is more dangerous or crazy. She thinks she would be able to get a place in Raja’s heart by throwing Naina out of here.
Rani asks Naina not to leave. Naina tries to touch her but her hand passes off Rani’s body. She faints there. The door opens, Mummy and Rekha cry beside Naina. Laila and Nani also come out, Mummy requests them to carry Naina inside. Nani sends the servants inside, and take Laila inside not ready to help. Rekha brings water for Naina. Vikrant runs towards them, and helps Rekha to carry Naina inside the room. Rekha thanks Vikrant but he silently leaves without replying.
Raja sat at roadside, crying. Rani walks towards him. Raja throws a stone towards her, without having noticed her. Rani says he must hurt her even more and pour most of his anger over her, but not hurt himself. She walks to him and calls his name. Raja sits there without noticing. Rani calls his name, then cries as she wasn’t able to touch him. She speaks to Raja she has been calling him for years, but he remained stone hearted. Her soul has been connected in the jail of his closed heart, but he looked towards her in years just when he searched for Naina. Only Naina can love him as much as he can, that’s the reason only she can see her. Raja turns to leave the bench, then screams I Hate You! He drives away, while Rani was left there, upset.
At midnight, Naina wakes up screaming out of fear. Vikrant brings juice for Naina. They all ask Naina why she fainted. Naina recalls her confrontation with Rani, then says she didn’t realize if it was weakness. Later, Naina walks to the hall alone, conscious of her surroundings. She calls Rani, then slaps herself saying she must get away before she gets crazy here. The door of the palace opens, Naina watches Rani enters. Naina cries and asks her not to hit her, she promises to go away from her husband as she needs to fulfil her mother’s dream. Rani says it may be her hard luck that she can’t let Naina leave. Naina can see and hear her, she has come to take her help. Only Naina can tell Raja that Rani was never disloyal to him. Raja has turned his face away, the pain of her disloyalty doesn’t let him live; would Naina help her for the sake of love. Naina was stunned, Rani says she would not get freed from here until Raja trusts her loyalty. Rani was ready to do anything if Raja gets peace by any of her action. Rani asks her to come along, Naina thinks what if something gets wrong? Rani reads her mind and says nothing would go wrong. Naina asks where they are going, Rani replies Ambay Maa’s temple. She is taking here there to meet Raaj Mata. Naina asks why their names are like Raja, Rani and Raaj Mata. Rani says she is the only proof of her loyalty, Raja had been looking for her at the wrong place all along, but only Raaj Mata can make Raja believe.
On the way, Naina hears Vijay’s call and was afraid. Vijay walks towards Naina and asks why is so shocked to see her. He loved her and would cross every barrier to reach her. He moves his step towards Naina but was prevented from moving on. Naina looks towards Rani’s stare at Vijay who was unable to move forward. Raja had just driven there, he turns his car towards them.
PRECAP: Raaj Mata prayed in the temple. Naina comes to save the flame with her, Raaj Mata was about to faint when Raja comes to save her.

OMG!!! Rani is indeed dead what nonsense now another turn of events? i am glad to know raaj mata is alive she will be able to tell raja the truth and then perhaps he will let go of his anger towards naina
I’ve read all comments for yesterday… Ssree, Topaz, thank for the acknowledgement…and yippee….happy to have another Trinidadian on the forum. Jess, I’m elated to know you will pop in from time to time to read what’s happening here and I know you are still here because of Sartaj… I believe we all are his supporters.
Naz, i think you should take over from the script wirters, I’m sure, you’ll do a great job. To be honest, I love reading people’s comments as much as I love the serial!
Gosh , if only it was easy to do that, I would not hesitate to do the honors. I also enjoy reading other viewers comments, in fact that is what I do everyday before reading updates. In KKB……I skip the updates completely, the comments are enough to make me contribute to the discussion. That serial is so beneath the lows of normal rationale, I don’t waste my time reading the updates . I did enjoy your previous comments though, keep it up.
Naz sorry to butt in but my parents are guyanese and trinidad is not far from guyana i never knew someone from trinidad would actually comment here i had friends from couva ,williamsville san fernando st james etc but i have never been there i have an uncle there who is a lawyer his name is vernon prashad he moved from london years ago to live there
Hey Sia….it’s sooooo nice to know that your parents are from Guyana, I went there about 3years ago to spend time with friends of my mom. I guess you reside in the USA…Sapphire is Trinidadian as well. You weren’t butting in my friend, even before now, you and I have exchanged views on JR and KKB…..I live in Cunupia, I do have friends and family living all over Trinidad. So I can see why you studying law as well, uncle’s influence huh!!! Sia, as you know, I’m sad how Rani has died but now I’m watching because of Sartaj only. Sigh………….
Im sorry but i can’t digest this rani’s being dead track, it just does not make sense so im still hoping beyond hope that the writers would give us what we want eventually after breaking our hearts ie raja and rani not raja and naina.
I need to say this: END this show! This is pure nonsense! Writers, how could you guys? I wonder why all of zee’ shows start well and then gets ridiculously disastrous. Every one of them! What? Do they share the same pool of writers? This serial is all about “a king and a queen”. Can the writers explain to viewers how on earth this lookalike fits in with a real queen in the essence of this serial? You guys don’t have a serial anymore. Just madness being shown in each episode just for the sake of lengthing the serial. The writers have strayed from the title and main story line of ek tha raja ek thi rani. So just end it, ok? At one time, the writers identified in the story that Kaal will be killed by a woman. Ahmmm…which woman? Nothing of the sort happened. Kaal is out of the serial. Then, during raja and rani courtship, they made the characters repeat all these vows of eternity to be with each other, no matter what, and now the writers disregard this and wants raja to be with and love another woman. On what basis and relevance is this to the story? Just because someone looks like another person a ghost wants her husband to love another woman? Did the writers forget the vows? I didn’t mind any new twist but when the writers committed to a particular story line and then can’t fulfil what they committed to viewers then they are deceivers and poor story tellers. They forget what they write. And so they might as well jump on their own swords. Bring this show to an end cause they no longer know what they are doing or what they are telling. At no time in this serial which started out so beautifully, did the writers ever maintain a story line. No time! Don’t these writers have any pride in their work, in their abilities to develop a story masterfully without the kind of foolishness that has become Indian cinema? I keep saying Indian writters need to study the “young and the restless” serial more often cause it says a lot for writers to develop stories for a show that is aired daily for the past 40 years and more. Do Indian writers understand what makes a show run that long so successfully, and that too to a far more intelligent audience who don’t buy excessive crying, sad songs, memory loss, switched marriages, mother-in-law/daughter-in-law showdowns, lookalike, rebirth and ghosts and other foolishness to interest people? It is just so disgusting now. Ek tha Raja Ek thi Rani was a refreshing serial that was so different from the rest and had the ability to be developed to a high level of soap and it’s pathetic how the show has descended into a cesspool. What is sad is the show has terrific actors like Sartaj Gill. I cannot believe I’m reading of a stupid ghost of rani hovering around raja and wanting a lookalike to be with him when they made vows to always be there with each other…NO MATTER WHAT! It runs contrary to what the writers told the audience. How can there be a serial about a king and a queen when the queen is dead?? That means the show just one end. Because there is nothing to carry out the title. There is no longer a story. This is just absolutely, disgustingly, cringingly pathetic to see what the writers have done to this show.
i assume they are twins making naina a rani and heir and then they return to the palace later. they kinda messed it up killing rani off. they lost the track when they killed off drashti and the others
seems like naina mother is hiding something.
common sense would be to have naina as the twin but no one new and was taken in a flashback

raja is not officially king until he married rani
This show is about a king, a queen and a palace. It centers around royalty and its affairs. How on earth did it get to this point of absurdity, of this deviation, where its now about a don, a lookalike and a ghost??? How? How? How did this show move from its original storyline to this utter nonsense? How? I’m lost for words. This show has nothing about its title. It is sheer nonsense. It insults intelligent viewers. Good lord! Now viewers are treated to the insanity of a ghost trying to unite a lookalike prick to her husband. I’ve read ridiculous stories but nothing like this. Writers, you’re clutching straw now. Just end the show. Can you imagine how well the previous stories and episodes were where there was fighting over who ought to get the throne, who was hidden, who would return for the throne, etc? That was good story and episodes. What do we have now? Trash. A royalty turned Don. A lookalike brainless prick. A don’s daughter. To what end? To what purpose? To what connection to the title “ek tha raja ek thi rani” and to what connection to the past story and episodes?
JESS I DO NOT KNOW IF YOU READ MY COMMENTS AT ALL BUT THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG; THE WRITERS HAVE MESSED UP BIG TIME FROM THE MOMENT THEY LOST FOCUS AND STRAYED WAY OFF BASE FROM THE PALACE AND THE KING AND QUEEN STORYLINE AND BROUGHT IN THAT HALF BREED JUNGLE MAN KAAL AND AUTOMATICALLY MADE HIM A KING AND SO HE PRODUCED A SON RAJA WHICH IN NO WAY EITHER A PRINCE BECAUSE HIS MOTHER WAS NOT QUEEN OR PRINCESS TO START WITH; SO YOU SEE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. NOW IF THAT OLD HAG BARI RANI MAA DID NOT CROWN THIS JUNGLE MAN KAAL A KING THIS WOULD NOT HAVE TAKEN PLACE. LIKE I SAID BEFORE THESE WRITERS MESSED UP BIG TIME AND IT IS NOT THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE WE ALL ARE AWARE OF THEIR INABILITY TO WRITE AND PRODUCE GOOD SCRIPTS AND SO THEY KEEP ON DESTROYING AND MESSING UP ALL THEIR SERIALS. I WILL SAY IT AGAIN AND AGAIN THEY START THEIR SERIALS INTERESTING AND THEN THEY GET LOSS ALONG THE WAY AND JUST START DOING SHIT BY COPYCATTING ALL THE SERIALS JUST CHANGING THE NAMES SOMETIMES BECAUSE EVEN SOME OF THE NAMES ARE THE SAME JUST A DIFFERENT SERIAL. SO JESS I SAPPHIRE DO AGREE WITH YOU 100% ALL THE WAY.
ANOTHER THING I THOUGHT ABOUT; WHY KILL OFF RANI AND BRING IN THE SAME RANI TO ACT AS NAINA AND THEN BRING BACK RANI AS A GHOST TO GO THROUGH ALL THAT TROUBLE TO FIND HER GRANDMOTHER QUEEN MOTHER IN OR TO CLEAR HER NAME WITH RAJA; THIS JUST AINT MAKING SENSE AS I WOULD SAY IT AINT COMPUTING AT ALL BECAUSE ALL THE WRITERS COULD HAVE DONE WAS TO END THE DAMN SERIAL WHERE RANI GREW UP AND CAME BACK FOR REVENAGE KILLING OUT ALL THE WICKED ONES INSTEAD OF ALL THE SIMI DIMI OF THE IQBAL STORYLINE WHICH DID NOT MAKE ANY SENSE IN THE FIRST PLACE BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE EVERYTHING WENT WRONG FOR THE SECOND TIME PUTTING RAJA AGAINST RANI; BOY O BOY TALK BOUT SHIT AND CONFUSION I GIVE THE ZTV WRITERS THE AWARD FOR THAT LOL
waiting for today’s episode eagarly when Rajmata meet Raja.
Hi Sapphire , jess
i am also in your situation , totally unhappy with the way they are turning the track, but i still hope that niana is Rani, and assume that they wont destruct the show,
i am daily viewer of show after death of ranaji and gayatri
from rani childhood to adulthood raja is supreme’
to everyone but everyone is least bothered about gayatri
in show they even showered raja is more to them because
he is raja but his rani can be anyone rani or else
at last i want to say i always hate raja character rather than rani who
is innocent and always suffered because of raja
All of us in this forum are 100% smarter than the writers of ETRETR…….no doubts here at all about this statement. Our comments await censorship before being posted, so who’s behind this job? Is Telly updates a separate entity or acting on behalf of the producers of the serial? If this entity is able to filter out coarse words which they deem unfit, then it’s correct to presume that our comments are read before it appears on the forum. Sooo….it isn’t like we all have just started to point to the deficiencies in the plot, we have been doing that since writers started becoming delusional and was going off script and they should have corrected the loose ends before venturing further. Now they are in one mess. I’ve read on some news yesterday, where the writer was pointing out that fans of Raja and Rani were unhappy with the current turn of events and asked for views, so that means our comments are read!!!, Two days ago, a viewer by the name of Sharmila, made a small but important observation, something I’ve also mentioned weeks and weeks ago,she said that when Rekha had asked the mother one why does Naina look different from her, where did she come from, the mother was shocked and her actions were very suspicious. These are the details which jess, Lakshmi ,Sapphire and I keep pointing out but it’s falling on deaf ears. We all are attached to this serial and have come together to cheer it along the way to reach the finish line as the victorious one in the race. I have to give Archana a prize, for her predictions, she saw it coming, I certainly didn’t. Jess….the writers ought to read your analysis where you mentioned The young and the Restless, I need not elaborate but writers should stop and think what you’ve said. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the discussion, we all need to pat ourselves on the backs for being intelligent viewers who believe in quality of story over quantity of episodes….whatever happened to “short but sweet”, ….we’ll chat later ,dear friends!!
So I think raja will cm to know the truth abt rani’s loyalty
Hello there ,my friends I am happy to know that all of us ,though hailing from different parts of the globe , share the same feelings for Rani and Naz ,from now on wards I will watch this serial only for the sake of Sartaj who is a fabulous actor.Moreover ,we have nothing to lose now,do we? since the damage is already done.Like you I also feel that Raja ,if at all he is going to get married ,should get married either to Layla or any other girl but certainly not Naina.The writers as well as many viewers may be thinking that Naina a look alike of Rani is enough for raja to lead a normal life.But Real life is something different.The reason why I am so emotional about Rani is that she reminds me of my class mate and best friend Radha.Today I am going to share with all of you the real life story of two lovely Identical twins who were my classmates in the Law college exactly 28 years back.The similarity would stop with their physical attributes only.Radha my best friend was an extrovert ,smart and a die hart optimist;her twin Radhika very shy and reserved.Their dressing styles as wellas outlooks towards life weredifferent .Except for looks they were two distinct individuals like any of us.But they had a special bond with each other like any other twins.In the midst of our first year Siddharth,a very charming boy joined our class and Radha fell in love with him.To put it short Radhika did her best to hide her sister’s affair from her parents who were very traditional .But when we were in 2 nd year they came to know and after lots of unpleasantness, finally they had to bow to the wishes of their bold daughter. After six months they got married ,such a lovely couple !,madly in love with each other.After another 3 months we got our degrees and parted ways. In the early nineties there were noCell phones and we used to be in touch only through letters.Both of them were very happy , I think after a year of their marriage she became pregnant.My goodness how difficult to put it in words,she gave birth to a baby girl and it seems the very next day she caught meningitis ,went into coma and died on the third day . Yes ,such a lively girl no more at just 25 .Being married to an Army officer ,that time we were in a god forbidden remote contonement and by the time I reached the funeral was over.
Siddharth went into a deep depression and had to be treated medicallyand Radhika ,temporarily leaving her profession,took care of her sister’s daughter for almost a year till Siddharth finished his medical treatment.After that the elders from both sides wanted Radhika to marry Siddharth. She refused ,Siddharth refused,but they were forced to marry for the sake of the baby.To the outside world they are Husband and wife but Radhika told me , to this day they remained just parents to Radha’s daughter who is a beautiful medical graduate now To this day Radhika repents ,she says had she not married Siddharth ,he would have led a nornal married life with some other girl atleast after a gap some years.But Sid says he can not give Radha’s ‘ s place in his heart to anybody.He feels bad for Radhika but says he can not help it..There is a say that life springs more pain and surprises than an y fiction. To this day I have not understood why God has to be so unkind to them,but they say god gives us what we deserve. thankfully Siddharth and Radhika don’t watch Zee tv and for privacy sake I have changed the names but with their consent only ,i am sharing their painful life with all of youBy tha way Naz I am from india and live in Bangalore.My two friends also live in Bangalore with their daughter.Somehow Rani reminds me of my friend Radha and Raja reminds me of Siddharth .the only difference is siddharth ‘s story has almost come to an end ,let us see what the writers will do with Raja Thanks for your patience to read this lengthy note.
Oh wow Lakshmi. What a touching story. I can only imagine the plight and life and pain and anguish of the two people you mentioned. I totally understand your feelings and this story. That’s why I too get upset with the writers. They like to make sport of everything without ever stopping to investigate if in real life, these things work in the way they make it look on screen. I wish the writers would stop this nonsense and set this story straight. And Lakshmi, it’s a really touching story you’ve told. My heart really pains to read it. Life is so unfair to some people.
Please clear up my misunderstandings what is going
On is rani a ghost or not
I’m confused
Is rani a ghost or not
Where’s Zaan Khan
I miss him
I’m commenting for the first time.
I thought the writers are playing tricky games and rani would come back.
Hi friends, Again sharing my guess on rekha’s statements and her mummy’s shock. Rani’s heart and face were transplanted in naina 10 yrs back in the same hospital where rani died. But this transplant especially face may have been done illegally. Naina’s mummy might have requested doc to do so just to make her daughter a heroine. Only naina is able to see rani’s soul Bcos rani’s heart is in naina. It is going on the lines of the Indian films ‘dil Ne Jise apna kaha’, ‘kaho na pyar hai’, ‘om Shanti om’ and ‘chamatkar’… The current plot as well as my guess is likely to be an intermix of these films.
