Udne Ki Aasha 1st September 2024: The episode begins with Sachin, a taxi driver, cruising through the busy streets with a passenger in the back seat. The passenger, who seems to be an officer, is engaged in a conversation on his mobile phone. As Sachin listens to the officer’s conversation, he feels something is off. The officer’s words do not match his actions, making Sachin suspicious of the man’s true intentions.
Upon reaching their destination, the officer asks Sachin to stop the car in front of a park instead of the office as previously instructed. The officer then leaves the taxi, saying he will return shortly to pay the fare. Sachin waits patiently, but his eyes are keenly observing the officer’s movements. The officer heads into the park and approaches a man named Tejas, who appears to be a friend. After a brief interaction, the officer borrows some money from Tejas to pay Sachin.
When Sachin receives the cash, a wave of shock runs through him. He instantly recognizes the notes as the same ones he had given to Paresh earlier. Sachin is baffled as to how these notes have found their way into a stranger’s hands. Determined to unravel the mystery, Sachin decides to enter the park to find out more.
As Sachin moves through the park, he spots Tejas sitting on a bench. The moment Tejas notices Sachin, he panics. Without a second thought, Tejas leaps up and runs towards a tree, quickly climbing up to hide. Sachin searches the area but fails to find Tejas hiding above him. Undeterred, Sachin continues his search, moving around the park in hopes of finding clues. When Tejas realizes that Sachin is still looking for him, he climbs down and attempts to hide once more, this time beside a beggar, masking his face to avoid being recognized.
Meanwhile, in another part of town, Sayali enters the restaurant where Akash works. Her face is serious, indicating that she has something important to discuss. Akash senses the tension and feels nervous. Sayali reveals a cup that Riya had given to Akash, making it clear she knows about their relationship. Akash, feeling cornered, seeks advice from Sayali on whether he should end his relationship with Riya or wait for a better time. Sayali advises Akash to be patient but cautions him against doing anything that could damage the reputation of the Deshmukh family. She reminds him that any reckless action could hurt both Paresh and Sachin, and warns him to tread carefully.
Back at Joy’s house, Raghav arrives to meet Riya to discuss their upcoming marriage. He presents Riya with several expensive gifts, showcasing his wealth and attempting to impress her. However, Riya is unimpressed and irritated by Raghav’s flashy behavior. She feels uncomfortable in his presence, struggling to tolerate him. After Raghav leaves, Riya’s frustration boils over, leading to a confrontation with her mother.
In a fit of anger, her mother slaps her, scolding her for her lack of cooperation. When Joy questions his wife about the outburst, she reveals her concerns about Riya’s secret relationship with Akash. Fearful that Riya might take drastic actions to pursue her love, her mother decides to lock Riya in a room, confiscating her mobile phone to prevent any contact with Akash.
Later in the day, while Sayali is busy in the kitchen, she receives a call from Sachin. Placing her phone on speaker, Sayali listens as Sachin shares his suspicions about Tejas. Sachin expresses his doubt that Tejas is not genuinely employed in a respectable job but is pretending to do so. Unbeknownst to Sayali, Renuka, who is nearby, overhears the entire conversation. Renuka becomes anxious, fearing that Sachin’s suspicions might expose secrets best kept hidden.
The episode concludes, setting the stage for more drama and revelations.
