Kumkum Bhagya 17th August 2021 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
The Episode starts with Rajeshwari ji praising Rhea and tells that she is badi bahu in every means. She tells Prachi that it seems she doesn’t know to wear saree. Dida says it is not like that. Rageshwari ji again thanks Rhea for saving her meeting and praises her again. She says she didn’t want to go with wrong impression from here. Teji says if Rhea had not helped then Pallavi had to feel ashamed. Rageshwari ji says no problem and tells Rhea that she will always remember her, and says God blesses you. She then blesses Prachi and leaves with Sharda. Pallavi comes to Prachi and asks how she can do such carelessness when I told you clearly that nothing wrong shall happen. She asks her to answer.
Mitali tells Abhi that she heard Aaliya talking to a guy and asking for money, and telling that if they haven’t helped him then he would be in jail. Aaliya says I had not said this. Mitali says my ears are very sharp. Tanu says Bhabhi says anything, Aaliya didn’t mean that. Abhi asks Mitali to say. Mitali tells that Aaliya told that she wants to get money for saving him and he told that he is the gold laying hen for them. Abhi asks Mitali what was the guy’s name? He asks her not to get afraid. And tells that they have already in debt of 1 lakhs Rs. He reminds Tanu that he freed her from jail with much difficulty when she was arrested. Mitali tells that she didn’t hear his name, as they might not have taken his name. Tanu tells that Aaliya was talking to Bansi as she saved him from Police, when he came to arrest him. Mitali asks if he said that you are gold laying eggs. Tanu says he promised to give us money when he gets it. Abhi asks if really this is the matter, and says they shall not take money for helping anyone. He asks where is Dadi? They tell that Dadi went to buy vegetables. Abhi asks why did you send her to buy vegetables in this age. Aaliya says she has some work with Babita and goes. Tanu says even she has some work and she also goes. Mitali asks Abhi if he would like to drink tea. Abhi says no.
Pallavi asks Prachi to answer her. Dida says Prachi tried from his side, treated Rageshwari’s foot too. Pallavi says this is the problem of today’s generation, and tells that she was flying high. Rhea smiles. Teji tells that she is not complaining about her and tells that she does all the work good, but does mistake and ruin things. Dida says outsiders take out the mistake and the family shall praise to make the person better. Teji asks Pallavi to make Dida understand. Pallavi says Prachi shall understand and says Rageshwari ji had come here, if I got free from home after I got two bahus. She says she wanted to see that if my bahus are handling home or not, so that I can get free time and I can handle NGO after her. She says she wanted me to hold committee lunch, so that the committee members get impressed with me and she wanted to announce my name. She scolds Prachi for disrespecting her. Prachi says sorry. Teji taunts Prachi for slipping on the wrong way and getting married. Dida shouts and says when we have forgotten then why can’t you. Teji says if Prachi has learnt from her mistake then this wouldn’t have happen. She asks why don’t you all forgive her. Prachi apologizes to Pallavi. Rhea asks Pallavi to forgive her. Pallavi asks will you take guarantee for her, that this will not happen again. tells that they all were effected with whatever happened two years back. Rhea stands silently. Pallavi says I got my answer. Dida asks Pallavi to forgive her and end the matter. Pallavi says it is good that Rhea saved acted on time and saved the situation, so that Rageshwari ji attended the meeting, else I wouldn’t have shown my face to her. She says she would have never recommended my name. She says if she doesn’t become chairperson that people will say that I couldn’t become it due to my bahu, although I was deserving and would have got stained on my name. She says people will say that the bahu wouldn’t handle home, and her saas couldn’t handle NGO. Prachi asks her not to forgive her, but believe her. Pallavi says you have become Ranbir’s wife, but will never become the part of Kohli family.
Pragya watches the news in which she is humiliated by Aaliya, Tanu, Gaurav and the media. Tanu and Aaliya come to Babita’s house to watch the news. Babita says the girl is so beautiful, why she will molest the guy. Tanu says she can do it. Babita asks why are they taunting the girl hiding their faces. Tanu says they have hidden their face, so that they can blacken someone’s face, it is a fashion/trend.
Sushma comes to Pragya and asks her to come and have food. Pragya refuses and tells that everyone must have known by now. She says people will talk about it and she will feel so humiliated. Sushma asks Pragya to fight for her respect, so that she don’t feel humiliation. She says I always saw you fighting and winning, so how can you accept defeat this time. She says we both know that the accusation is wrong and you have to fight with it. She convinces her to have food. Pragya eats the food and hugs Sushma.
Aaliya tells Tanu that they have been defeated from Pragya, but not this time, as she didn’t know from where she is attacked. Tanu says we hit at her from so far that the arrow hit on her forehead. Aaliya says she has no answer for our questions. Tanu says she was crying a lot and wishes to see her crying face. Aaliya asks shall we go to her home and see her face. She says we would have celebrated if we got money from Gaurav. Tanu asks if we can get defeated. Aaliya says we used to target her married life and love, but now we have targeted her respect, she couldn’t fight back, she is finished. She smiles. Tanu also smiles.
Pallavi asks Prachi not to make her feel bad and says if bahu cries then saas looks bad. Prachi says I will not cry, it was my mistake, learn it from my mistakes and will tries to rectify it. Teji asks her not to do mistakes so that Pallavi has to bear. Dida asks Teji to stop and asks Pallavi to think about the lunch for the committee members. Teji says I guarantee that there will be no problem in the lunch, I will make them do the work properly and asks Pallavi to give one key atleast. She asks when is the lunch? Pallavi says tomorrow. She asks Rhea and Prachi to make chole batura differently, as the guests are Punjabi. Dida asks why to make the food separately. Pallavi says if Rhea’s food is good then I will appreciate her, and if Prachi makes good food then I will forgive her. Teji praises Rhea and says you are badi bahu and status is different. Rhea comes to Dida and asks her to talk to Prachi. Dida says you shall talk to her. Rhea says I don’t feel that and tells that she might be feeling that I am very happy, and talking to her, as everyone is impressed with me. She acts good and says she is not interested in the keys and just wants her family with her. She says so much miscommunication happened between us, I don’t want that to happen now. Dida goes. Rhea thinks everyone talks sweet, but talks bitter at the back. She says even I backstabbed, tells that Dida wanted Prachi to get the keys. She says I will get the keys as I am the badi bahu of the kohlis, and that’s my guarantee that I will get it.
Precap: Dida asking Prachi if she is missing her mother. Prachi says she misses her daily, now crying too. Tanu comes to Pragya’s house and tells that she has not come here to laugh, but to give her solution. Dida tells Prachi that if your mom would have been here, then she would have filled self confidence in you. Tanu tells Pragya that she is selling her husband, if you are ready to buy him. Pragya is shocked. Prachi tells Sushma that my Maa always taught me to fight with the problems, she would never let me cry. Tanu says you heard right Pragya, Abhi can become your husband, if you can the right price for him.

Wanna bet that Rhea will spoil things at the lunch as well , humiliate Prachi , embarrass Pallavi and ” win ” the keys ??
All of Prachi’s resolution to ” tackle the problems efficiently ” utterly useless if she can’t stand up for her self respect and , more importantly , fails to recognize enemies wearing friends’ / sympathizers’ cloaks
I agree with you 100%. I’m sure this will happen. I want Rhea to get the keys and the responsibility. In that way everyone will automatically find out about rhea’s true colours.
Correct
Well we can all see how this goes. Rhea will mix something in Prachi’s food and then she’ll get humiliated again. And the other competitions Rhea will do the same. I don’t think the actor who plays Ranbir is shooting. Which means no Pranbir this week also 🥺. This saas bahu drama will last for a month at least for gods sake 🤦♀️ But I feel like in the end Prachi will end up getting the keys even if she fails but I don’t know she probably will do something enormously good in the end which will win everyone over and then this will make Rhea furious and begin to plot against Prachi again. I’d prefer that over her plotting right now because I want to see Pranbir not this saas bahu and competition crap.
@Riya
What makes you say Ranbir is not shooting ??
I know he had some other projects , but I read on some other thread that he’s done with them
Prachi et bhagya sont nulles des femmes elles n’existent pas toujours entrain de pleurnicher on aurait dit des gamines. Imprudentes . j’ai jamais vu vraiment Alia et tanu pleuré elles sont fortes battantes et courageuses.la vie c’est actions réaction
One hypocrisy, some kind of interest club. I think that Rhea will just order ready-made food, and again spoil all the Prachi. Pracha does not have such a trait as Rhea’s impudence and cunning, she needs to be a little more impudent and cunning.
Stop nonsense old sasu bahu drama and aliya and tanu overacting. First remove this dp and tanu and aliya. Otherwise your show go’s end .this saree computation is not a Olympic game and next kitchen cleaning next both rooms cleaning good job your creativity is next level no one thinks this type ideas
@K.Lakshmi Lavanya
I understand you wishing to get dp removed , since I know you are ABHIGYA fan , but you want Aliya and Tanu also removed ?? They are integral part of ABHIGYA storyline
I am fed up of Rhea jealousy.
Why Rhea tanu and Alliyah always have to win?
Pallavi is a fool.
So i guess Teji is an Alliyah to misguide the biatch Rhea.
@Sandy
Aliya at least had somewhat valid , and legitimate reason to hate Pragya and Prachi. Does this Teji even know either Rhea and Prachi well ??
I agree K.Lakshmi Lavanya with your comment regarding the pettiness of what is being used to create ‘drama’. The level of pettiness is insulting and goes beyond whether you like the dp or the abhigya storyline. Stupid is stupid and nothing more. And a comment for Colin. I suspect that the whole dp labelled people against the labelled abhigya people is simply a 2ndary place to create unnecessary drama. You must wonder who were the ‘paid shills’ to promote the drama within the viewers. If anything, it exposes the difference between watching entertainment or watching social engineering projects. The show itself had a good beginning but now appears to be one long ‘skank’ fest. Please remember that the production team has successfully engineered a second mirrored ‘skank’ fest with and through the audience where, not just on this site…. where petty, silly, immature festivities have also shown up. I feel sad for Meli Singh who tried to defend against the pettiness. My agreement with Meli’s opinions is not necessary. I very much liked hearing about her observations. So, I feel sad that she fell during a skirmish. Ekta Kapoor is really good at creating hate and fanning the flames to grow hate. All over a low level pettiness. Is it truly necessary to shame all of India and create a drama over something being spilled on a dress? How small-minded.
After today’s episode I’m certain Rhea will get the keys and definitely do something 2 spoil Prachi’s food on that day. After that who knows Rhea might show her true colors and will definitely control and boss around Prachi with her power but Ig we’ll have 2 c tho 1 thing is 4 sure not gonna watch this show until Ranbir appears without him protecting Prachi it’s just gonna be WW3
Ranbir is resting with Shahana, he is not up to Prachi. If I were in Prachi’s place, I wouldn’t strain at all, since she has already been pointed out to her place. She can do anything, please anyone, but the result will be the same, she will be Ranbir’s wife, but not part of the Kohli family. Yesterday Tanu received the award of the International Iconic Awards 2021 as the best Khalnayak. For me, she is not a villain, but just an annoying character, Aliya is 100 times better at portraying a villain.
In a way , Rhea getting the keys and responsibilities will ultimately result in her downfall , as she is obviously inadept in running a household
I just wished it happened without further humiliation of Prachi……..
Also , wouldn’t it be epic if Sid , catches Rhea doing something bad with Prachi ??
Just hope he wouldn’t blame Prachi instead!
The only way Rhea can change is if she loses her memory and lives under Pragya’s care. Perhaps when she starts life from scratch, she will be able to change.
That’s true.
Does anyone know why the whole team is in Lanovala? Prachi, Ranbir, Sid, Shahana, just relaxing or working on a project?
@YY
If Mugdha is also with them then I guess it’s not just vacation , because Mugdha is definitely shooting
wow. for someone so obsessed with Abhi, she’s willing to exchange him for money… I think Tanu will get the better part of that deal….. 😉 . Knowing her, she will end up with both.
@Sleepy
I don’t think Pragya will accept the deal in the first place.
More than Rhea or this new Teji , Prachi’s true enemy is her own inferiority complex , this all guilt inviting attitude.
” I made a big mistake , I don’t deserve your forgiveness , but please forgive me , please let me lick morsel from your leftover food , I will be grateful and obedient puppy ” ENOUGH YAAR
Is it now a crime or sin , to have your foot slipped ?? Is it worth BEGGING for forgiveness ??
So long as Prachi doesn’t work on this , her life will continue to be miserable , cuz assuming Rhea fails to do something nasty in this lunch making , she will find some other occasion. If not then , then other……. after all they live in same house , each day is a new opportunity for her to weave some new trap for Prachi.
Only after Prachi gets courage to talk back to even Pallavi , and Teji , will her life truly change
We can only dream she’s way to nice and innocent 2 talk back let alone stand up 4 herself that’s y they have Ranbir so that he can always fight and stand up 4 her since no 1 else will especially not Prachi herself
@Em
Then I will say Prachi deserves this humiliation. A person has to be prepared to fight for their own self respect. Others cannot fight for someone else’s dignity all the time
@Colin
U r absolutely ryt. Prachi needs to learn to stand up for herself. Ranbir can’t behave like Prachi’s crutch all the time.
as in real life. It’s not easy to stand up to a bully. Even when you try to, it is a big help to have reinforcements in the form of other family members and friends. Not being able to defeat or win over a bully on your own doesn’t mean the victim deserves it. imho
@Sleepy
” it is a big help to have reinforcements in the form of other family members and friends ”
Agreed. But they are reinforcements. NOT your own alternate versions who have responsibility or obligation to defend you 24/7.
Ranbir has done his share of defending Prachi and fighting for Honour whenever he can. How does she repay him ?? By prostrating herself in front of Pallavi at one raised voice from her. By allowing Teji – who by the way doesn’t even have any right to say anything to Prachi about her past life – to term their marriage as a mistake. Was it a mistake ?? Did SHE did that mistake ??
Will she depend on Ranbir her whole life to fight for her honour , and let it get slighted in his absence ??
This battle is Prachi’s. Ranbir can fight it with her , but he can’t fight it FOR her , nor should he be obligated to. It’s Prachi’s honour , Prachi’s self respect , and no one else except herself has to bear the burden of defending it. And if she can’t defend it then yes , she doesn’t deserve it.
There’s an old saying : Freedom , and Honour , have to be earned to be any value. If they are given as charity then it’s mockery , not truly respect
Well I may have misunderstood what you are saying but I don’t believe that helping a victim is charity. Even if it means just giving them the boost they need to stand up for themselves. if we were to go by the saying, “treat others the way you want to be treated, “I don’t think there would be a problem in this story and even is some of the nasty comments that people make at others. But truly, I have more dislike, to put it mildly, for the bully than the victim. Both are indeed in need of some serious help.
I think faster than my fingers write, I apologize for some of the grammar. In this story, and in real life, “treating others the way you want to be treated, would go a long way. I know this series is fiction and that is why it’s illogical storylines and actions of the characters, is tediously frustrating.
I do know that playing the victim card, is detrimental, It is so when the person won’t take responsibility for their actions, blaming it on others and circumstances. To me, that feels very different than actually being a victim of someone’s sadistic and cruel actions. I think the latter does well with help, I don’t mean doing all the work for them, but some how give them the strength they need to stand up for themselves. that’s all. Oh well. If we didn’t have different thoughts, this wouldn’t be as interesting. 🙂
@Sleepy
I agree with what u r saying. But Prachi’s case is different. She is not getting any strength at all by seeing Ranbir standing up for her, instead she is becoming more n more dependent on Ranbir. It’s not good n healthy at all. I think Ranbir should rather try to motivate Prachi to stand up for herself, instead of himself standing up for her all the time.
@Sleepy
I understand lacking courage to stand up to their bullies. In this case , it’s not like victims lack self respect , it’s just buried under fear of retribution. People who just lack courage , at least believe in their heart that they are right. They at least have a silent flame of defiance burning in their heart.
BUT , those people who AGREE with their bullies wholeheartedly that yes , they deserve to be insulted / put down / mocked for whatever mistake their bullies claim they have made……….. such people do not lack courage , they lack self respect / dignity and spine , altogether. And Prachi in today’s date belong to this category. It’s not that her flame of defiance against Pallavi’s bullying is hiding , that flame doesn’t exist at all.
Prachi is actually believing in all the blames , allegations put on her by all : by Abhi , by Pallavi , by Rhea…… She thinks Abhi is right to disown her. She thinks Pallavi is right to blame her for ruining Kohli family. She thinks Rhea is right to blame her of snatching her happiness. And this is pathetic.
Sure Ranbir can give her courage and motivation to fight for her self respect , but it will be useful only if SHE believes that she DESERVES that respect. That she has done nothing wrong. That Pallavi was wrong to create so much scene over one ruined saree etc etc……
So long as Prachi doesn’t trust in herself , no one can help her externally. First help , that’s of rejuvenating / rekindling of her slumbering self respect , that has to come from within herself only.
And once that happens then she may not even need Ranbir’s crutch.
Tanu is asking for right price in exchange of Abhi. Lol that useless n dumb Abhi doesn’t worth even a penny. Pragya should reject the deal straightaway without giving it a second thought.
Pragya should pay Tanu to KEEP Abhi….lol
@Sleepy
Yeah, Abhi actually deserves life partner like Tanu. They both deserve each other well coz they both r useless 😂😂😂
Husband for sale at the correct asking price. Tanu is really good in her clothes to want sell Abhi for a profit. I hope that Pragya sees through this and realise that Aaliya and Tanu were the ones who slandered her.
praghia reply to tanu and alis at the confrence is why they try to kill her and shusma finds he eh nooo writers alia and tanu @ low poor ass broken b*t*hes and they have power on the mogal pragis dont make any f**king sence this here soap oh welcome to india where gobar turns to fuel
@Colin & Jyoti Srivastava…..True. you can’t help someone who won’t help themselves. Eventually they have to put in the effort or they will always end up in the same place.
Where Gautam I hope he come back show
This show is insisting impossibleness of a peaceful family life with the traditional indian rules. I thing that is the only positive outcome of the show.
Prachi should concentrate on her husband, and in finishing her college degree and nailing a good job .
Playing Mahaan doesn’t have a reward. She is wasting her marriage and progress in life on hosting , taking care of the sick FIL , trying in vain to kiss her MIL a*** !
If you can’t fix it shift your effort for a better cause .
KumKum Bhagya should just call itself “Prachi Torture Porn” now.
Because that is literally all that the show is about nowadays.
Riya’s life- in her paternal home toxic buji and in maternal home toxic chachiji I just feel chachi is just there to replace Aliya 🙄
@Anonymous
This Teji is more infuriating than Aliya. Because, Aliya has had history with both Pragya and Prachi and justification in her own twisted perception to plot against them
This Teji is plotting against Prachi when she does not even have anything against HER , personally , but just to pit Rhea and Prachi against each other so that she can have entertainment
Am I the only one thinking that does oil not leave any stain on the floor, and can’t someone feel the oil on the foot…..
Nothing on this show makes sense. If Rhea was in Prachi’s place today, the former would have been forgiven.
@Anonymous
” If Rhea was in Prachi’s place today, the former would have been forgiven ”
I don’t think so. While Pallavi obviously adores Rhea over Prachi , she likes her image in society even more , and in this case anybody who tarnished it would have been given an earful , though I am sure Rhea would have been scolded less severely
Yeah, that’s true. But not as severe, you’re right. If it was Rhea, it wouldn’t have been a huge commotion, it would’ve been over quickly.
Has Prachi gone a single episode without being abused/put down/treated badly? It’s relentless, all of what’s been happening with her as of late.
@Anonymous
And this abuse and humiliation will continue so long as Prachi continues to accept it meekly.
Only when she , will hold her high and tell Pallavi and Teji that no , I am NOT wrong and I WILL NOT tolerate these undeserved insults from you now on , and you WILL give me the respect a daughter in law deserves , will there be any possibility of her life changing to better.
Other way is Rhea’s schemes getting exposed. But tbh , I don’t want it to happen that way. I so want Prachi to stand up for herself and fight for what she deserves. EARN what she deserves. Prachi should be accepted , not because Rhea is not worthy , but because Prachi is worthy. Prachi’s worthiness shouldn’t be tied to Rhea’s downfall
I also think that an oil stain can’t just disappear without a trace, even traces when walking would remain, but this is a show, and here everything disappears without a trace, whether it’s spots or characters.
They always give power to bad people, this will encourage people to be bad
What spoil this show is that bad people always win
KKB is a serial where the number and strength of the crimes limitless but there is no sentence even the murderer
And the value based characters always suffers. It means that they are trying to tell to people to avoid doing good things, if you don’t want to be punished. And the people who are never afraid of committing ofense get big awards in life.
I think these guys are bad at parenting coz who forgets about their kids.
