Kishori and his family greet the groom’s family, and then kishori announces that Lahore’s famours artist, Meher Jaan, who is sarafarz’s mother shall present her performance. She starts her song, while lajo and sunder exchange signals in the eyes. Sarfaraz comes and eyes them enjoyng his mother singing, and remembers what Narayan Baba said, that his mother was a mistress of the bharadwaj family, and that kishori’s elder brother, keshav lal is his real father, and he is in fact an illegitimate son. He is apalled to see her singing, as he remembers Narayan’s stinging words, that being a Hindu’s illegitimate son, he is favouring the muslims. he thinks that this family has put up his mother on auction and swears that he shaall do the same for kishori’s daughter in laws and daughters. He says that what his elder brother did wrong, the females of his family shall pay for it. He says that the fire of partition shall emerge here, and declares to himself, that he shall convert this place too into a brothel. After she is done, kishori comes and gives her money in her lap. As he turns around, he finds Sarfaraz standing. meher is shocked to see her son there too. Sarfaraz steps in, smearing the rangoli, and then comes by his mother’s side, and takes the money from her, and throws it in the air, saying that she neednt grab thrown money. All are confused and boggled. Kishori eyes him tensedly. he says that she neednt come in places, where the people put up their own family’s daughter in laws at auction. He asks kishori if he told everything, but forgot to mention that she is his sister in law, his elder’s brother’s wife and this house’s elder bahu. all are shocked to hear this, while granny and kishori are flustered. Meher asks her to shut up and leave from here, but he says that today he shall not keep quiet and noone can stophim, as he shall disrespect them today, in front of all. revathy and granny are apalled. He says that he may boast himself of being very mannered and respectful, but the fact is noone is as shameless as them. He says that Kishori is his paternal uncle, and accuses him of knowing from before, and still making his brother’s son, sarafarz, as a helper in the shop, hile he kept talking of his loyalty to them as masters. he says that they were struggling for money, but he didnt bother nor had the mercy, and instead of respecting her, he put her in a brothel. He tells them that today they have the chance to come clean and abrest about this well kept secret. The screen freezes on kishori’s tensed face.
THE QUESTION LEFT FOR PONDERING IS WHETHER SARFARAZ’S TRUTH SHALL BURN LAJO AND SUNDER’S LOVE NEST IN LAHORE….???
Precap: Sarfaraz tells Ghulam Ali to get all the human traffickers and auctioners, for the auction of the females of this house, as he eyes lajo and dulari venomously, who are scared. He says that today in Badamai Bagh, the females of the Bharadwaj family, shall be auctioned and sold. sunder is barely stopped by chaman and amrish, as they all watch helplessly and with furious rage. He says that the retreat of hindus from Lahore, shall start with the Bharadwaj family, as he is sided with anwar and ghulam ali.
