Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Story

[amol]

Savita comes to Gayatri's room and tells her that they should support Ganga and Saahil. She informs Gayatri that Tulsi is going to Australia to bring back Tisha as Virani family's daughter-in-law. Ba sees Tisha's picture in Gautam's room and feels repentant about cursing Tisha. Anupam informs JD about Karan's suspicious actions and advices him to keep him under control.

Tulsi apologises to Gautam for not being able to understand him. She tells him that she is very sad that Tisha left so suddenly, and that she was going to Australia to bring her back as Gautam's wife.

Tulsi arranges for her tickets to Australia. Gautam insists on coming with her, but she refuses. Ganga tells Saahil that Tisha is very fortunate to get a mother-in-law like Tulsi. They agree that they should let the elders in the family decide the outcome of their relationship. Kesar is upset with Anupam as he has not taken her out anywhere for a holiday.

JD sees Karan leaving office and follows him in his car. He sees Karan entering a Bungalow and coming out with Kabir. He realizes that Anupam was right in suspecting Karan and Kabir. He again follows them to the Hotel where Karan stays, and finds out his room number from the Hotel Manager. Savita and Gayatri come to meet Ganga. Gayatri apologises to her for her prior behaviour. Ganga is very happy when they express their support to her in getting Saahil and her together.

JD calls Karan to his office cabin to enquire about Kabir and his relationship. But Karan turns the table on him and tells him that Kabir is his friend on a personal level, whereas on a professional level, it was he who found out Kabir's fraud and had him thrown out of the Virani group. JD warns him that he will be keeping an eye on him.

Pooja informs Hemant that Gayatri had gone to meet Ganga and that everyone is ready to get Ganga and Saahil married. Hemant is very happy with the news. Pooja asks him if Mihir and he are hiding anything, but Hemant reassures her that everything is all right. Mansukh, Himmat and JD come to meet Ba. They tell her that this is the first time in their family that the daughter-in-law of the house will be going alone to Australia. Ba tells them that she cannot go with Tulsi.

Tulsi is ready to leave for Australia. The family gather together to see her off. Gautam feeds her some curd before she leaves as it is the family tradition to have curd before going for some auspicious work. Gautam and Harsh go to leave Tulsi at the airport.

While Tulsi is in Australia, Ba gets an angina attack in India. The entire Virani family is at unrest. Ba is hospitalized and there is a cloud of fear and tension lurking in the Virani household. The saddest part being that Tulsi is not around. So there is nobody to hold the family together. Nevertheless Savita takes hold of the situation and asks everybody to take it bravely. Ba's condition is very serious. At the same time they do not want to let Tulsi know about it since she cannot do anything about it being in Australia and it would only mean a lot of grief and helplessness for her.

Mansukh tells Pragya that Vikram is getting upset seeing her cry. Pragya is worried about Ba as she feels that Ba must be getting concerned with the absence of the family members. Savita decides to stay with Pragya and asks the others to go home. Mansukh decides that Pragya will stay with them.

Ba is surprised when she doesn't see the family members at home. Pooja tells her that the men have gone to work and Gayatri and Savita have gone shopping. JD tells Ba that she should not be roaming around the house, as per the doctor's orders, and that he had come back to give her company. Ba tells him that she wants to visit Naveen as both Pragya and Naveen have been asking her to visit them. She insists that JD should accompany her. He gets upset as he doesn't know how to break the news of Naveen's death to Ba. Mansukh tells JD and Himmat that only Tulsi can handle Ba.

Mansukh goes to receive Tulsi at the airport. She is surprised to see him there. Both want to talk to the other, but are unable to convey their problems to each other. Mansukh takes Tulsi directly to Pragya's house, where she is shocked to learn of Naveen's death. Pragya gets emotional upon seeing Tulsi. Tulsi is shocked to learn that Ba does not know of Naveen's death. Mansukh calls up JD and tells him that he was bringing Tulsi and Savita home. He tells JD that they will have to hide Pragya in the house for a few days, else Ba would find out the truth. Shobha informs Tulsi about Ba' s heart attack and her near-death experience. Tulsi goes to Ba's room. She gets emotional and tells Ba that she should have informed her about her illness, as she would have come back immediately. Tulsi is torn between telling Ba about Mihir and Mandira, and about Naveen's death.

Tulsi has a big confrontation with Savita. She is upset about not being told of Ba's illness. Savita explains that since Tulsi had gone to fix Teesha and Gautam's marriage, Ba had forbidden them from informing Tulsi as she would have gotten upset. Savita and Tulsi talk in tangents, Tulsi referring to Mihir and Savita to Ba. The Virani family is worried as to who will inform Ba about Naveen and how would she take it. Finally, Pragya musters the courage to face Ba. Everyone is tense.

Pragya goes to Ba's room to tell her about Naveen's death. Ba is very happy to see her and promises to stay with Naveen and her for a few days. Pragya starts crying and Mansukh tells Ba about Naveen. Ba breaks down on hearing the news. The entire family offers their support. Ba tells Mansukh that Pragya should stay with them for a few days.

Everyone has assembled in Pragya's house for the 13th day of mourning. Anupam and Kesar come to offer support to the family. Tulsi sees Anupam and wonders if he will ever keep connections with the Virani family when he finds out that Mandira is alive and that Mihir and she are still seeing each other. Tulsi is very worried and wonders how to tell the family about Mihir and Mandira. Savita is concerned about Tulsi.

Mihir comes to Naveen's house and consoles Pragya and Vikram. Tulsi doesn't know how to react when Mihir comes to her. She starts crying and walks out. Ganga follows her and asks her why she is so upset. Tulsi tells her that she has received so many bad news since she's come- Naveen's death and Ba's illness. She says that the worst thing to happen to any woman is when her husband leaves her and goes away. (She indirectly refers to Mihir).

Mihir comes to Tulsi. She is very angry with him. She tells him that he had hidden his relationship for 25 years. Her position had been usurped by Mandira. She is shocked when he asks her to forget everything. Mihir tells Hemant everything. He says that he has always taken Tulsi as his wife and no one can take her position. He is very worried as to how the family will react to the news.

Anupam overhears Karan talking to Kabir over the phone, where he tells Kabir that he has got Mihir's signature on the Power of Attorney, made out in Karan's name. Anupam is shocked. Anupam follows Karan to a Building where he goes into a flat and then leaves. Anupam then quietly takes out the key from the hidden place and enters the flat. He wonders how Karan could afford such a big place with his salary. He finds paper cuttings of Mihir in a drawer. He then notices a passport and is shocked to read the name as 'Karan Virani'

Karan goes out of Pragya's house. Mihir, Anupam and Gautam follow him to the gate. Anupam slaps Karan and tells him that he has cheated the Virani family and calls him a fraud. Gautam asks Karan to get out of the house. Mihir and Karan keep looking at eachother.Anupam and Hemant ask Mihir whether he knows Karan, and if there is any enimity between them, but Mihir refuses to divulge anything. Mihir and Tulsi 's. relationship continues to be strained. Mihir tries to explain the situation to Tulsi, but she refuses to listen. Karan calls up Mihir who asks him to meet him in his office.

Savita almost witnesses a fight between Tulsi and Mihir, but the former covers it up. Kesar comes to Shantiniketan to invite the family for a puja that Anupam is keeping to mark Mandira's birth anniversary. She wants Tulsi and Mihir to perform the puja. They are shocked.

Hemant tells mihir that it will be difficult for them to hide their secret from the rest of the family, as Tulsi already knows that Mandira is alive. Mihir breaks down and tells Hemant that Tulsi is not willing to listen to his version of the story. Baa calls the pujari to find an auspicious date for Teesha/Gautam and Ganga/Saahil's engagement and wedding. Tulsi expresses her wish for the marriage to take place as soon as possible. Savita agrees with her. Hemant is worried about Tulsi.

Tulsi remembers a few past instances which have been bothering her. She confronts Hemant about his knowing the truth about Mandira. She tells him that they share many relationships between them- that of a devar, friend, brother and son. But now she decides to break all relationships with him. She tells him that he was not worthy to be called 'Lakshman', who saved his bhabhi Sita by drawing the 'Lakshman Rekha', and neither was Mihir 'Ram'. Hemant breaks down completely. Pooja overhears the entire conversation and is shocked.

After Tulsi discloses the truth about Mihir and Mandira in the temple everybody comes back to shantiniketan dejected and disturbed. Tulsi in the middle of the night is missing from the house. Savita goes and tells Ba about it. They are tensed. Finally they find Tulsi praying in the temple outside their house. The Viraani family is faced with a big emotional trauma just before Gautam, Teesha and Saahil and Ganga's wedding.

Gautam and Teesha decide that they rather get married in the court than to have a big fanfare due to the afflicted atmosphere, currently prevailing in the house. Tulsi overhears their conversation and refutes back saying that they don't deserve to get affected by her trauma and that their wedding will take place with the usual fanfare keeping the Viraani family traditions alive. JD, Manasukh and Himmat also decide to go ahead with the wedding. There is a bit of doubt in Tulsi's mind with regards to, inviting Payal for the wedding ceremonies. Savita convinces her that it would be very inappropriate not to invite Payal. Payal comes down. Tulsi is very tensed cause she fears Payal taking advantage of the crisis that she is going through. This could also have repercussions on Shobha who is pregnant currently. The Mehendi ceremony begins and everybody is trying to put up a brave front with a smile of pretence to hide the truth from Payal and Shobha and let the celebrations go amicably.

Karan walks in the Mehendi ceremony. Everybody is tensed. He comes and touches Tulsi's feet. Payal is watching this, though she is unaware of Karan true identity. There is loads of drama happening in the mehendi ceremony with regards to Karan and Payal.

Ganga tells Karan not reveal the truth to Payal or Shobha as it can have major setbacks on Shobha. He also should consider this keeping in mind that Shobha is his stepsister. Karan agrees on the grounds of his friendship with Ganga and Saahil.

Payal on the other hand calls Aarti and informs her about Gautam's wedding. She also inquires about the property papers that she had tried to buy form Gautam. Aarti tells Payal that there is somebody by the name of Karan Mehta who has transferred 30% of the Viraani property on his name. Payal finds out his address and goes to meet him. She enters Karan house and tells him that she has the papers of some property sold to Aarti by Gautam. Karan asks her to sell the same to him. She wants to know Karan's reason for his enmity against the Viraani's. Karan refuses to reveal the truth.

It is Karan's Birthday and he is at the temple with Mandira. Karan is arrested in the Viraani property blast case. Mandira runs to Mihir to help her. Mihir gets to know that his own father Mansukh had got Karan arrested. Will mihir bail out Karan......

Karan finally manages to catch the real culprit behind the blast that almost killed Mansukh and injured Mihir. Even Tulsi is shocked to find out that it is not Karan and somebody else. Who is the culprit....... Is it Payal...Aarti...Gautam...or ......

Tissa tells Tulsi that she is pregnant. Savita tells Tulsi that she met Mihir and Mandira at the hospital. Tulsi decides to file for divorce with Mihir. Will Tulsi go ahead and ask Mihir to sign the papers ?

Mandira traps Mihir in a way that he bumps into Payal. Mihir threatens Payal that he will get her arrested. Mandira plants a thought in Payal's mind, to play shobha as a peg against the Viraani. How will Tulsi react to this? Karan takes over Mansukh's position as the Chairman. He introduces Payal, Aarti and Mandira as the new directors to join the Virani's group of industries. At the hospital, Payal tells Karan that Tulsi could be behind the poisoning of Mandira.

Mihir sees a woman run out of Shantiniketan in the night. She looked like Tulsi. When he goes and checks for Tulsi, Tulsi is sleeping in her room. There is a Tulsi look alike who is playing tricks with The Viraani's. she....???

Tissa's Godbharai ceremony is happening, on the otherside Mandira is talking to the mysterious lady and tells her to keep her act going till Tulsi is imorisoned. Mandira also lies to Karan that she has seen Tulsi poisoning her. Karan vows to take Mandira to Shantiniketan. Mihir tells Karan that he is ready to marry Mandira.

Payal tells Tulsi that Mihir is getting married to Mandira. Mihir goes to invite everybody at Shantiniketan for his wedding with Mandira. Mansukh slaps him. Payal tells Mandira that finally she has achieved her goal of possessing Mihir.


Tissa dies and the entire family is in deep state of shock. They perform her last rites with a heavy heart. Gautam is in a frozen state of mind. Tulsi is speechless.

Gautam gets to know that Mandira was behind the accident that killed Tissa. He pledges to avenge Tissa's death. Ganga realises that Mandira was actually trying to kill Tulsi.

Condolence meeting in honour of Tissa is being held. Tulsi is in great sorrow. Karan comes to pay homage to Tissa. Gautam has a verbal conflict with Tissa. He swears to avenge Tissa's death.

Karan and Gautam vow to take revenge at the temple while performing their respective last rites. Savita advises Tulsi to consider the option of getting back to Mihir. Payal instigates Karan to take Anupam's help and avenge Tissa's death.

Payal decides to once again use Shobha as a scapegoat to create tension in Tulsi's life. She humiliates Shobha in front of Vishal with regards to Mihir and Tulsi.
