Jagriti Outsmarts Alex and Suraj – Full Episode
The episode opens with Alex informing Kalindi that he doesn’t eat non-vegetarian food. Kalindi kindly offers to cook something else and asks him to let them know what he’d prefer. But before that can happen, Jagriti steps in and says the food is already prepared. She serves them traditional Indian dishes and explains how each one is made. Both Alex and Jack enjoy the meal and compliment her cooking.
After the meal, Alex makes a bold request—he tells Kalikant to bring the full Rs 25 crores to his warehouse. Suraj objects to this demand, arguing it’s unfair that they are not only paying compensation but also being asked to transport it. But Alex explains they have no other option because SP Kalpana has tightened security by setting up checkposts everywhere.
Jagriti then proposes a new plan: she suggests delivering the money to the Kuldevi temple, which lies outside SP Kalpana’s area of control. That way, they can avoid police scrutiny. Alex likes the idea. But Jagriti adds a twist—since they are taking on all the risk, she insists they’ll keep Rs 10 crores and only deliver Rs 15 crores. She gives Alex a choice: either come to their house for the full amount or collect Rs 15 crores from the temple. Alex agrees to the deal and leaves.
Soon after, Kalikant instructs Kalindi to prepare for a visit to the Kuldevi temple, and she readily agrees. Kalindi informs Ganga about the pooja and asks her to arrange everything. Ganga complies, but later, Jagriti gets curious when she notices a large number of baskets being prepared. Ganga explains they are meant for the temple rituals.
Meanwhile, Suraj secretly carries these baskets into Kalikant’s study, where he explains his plan to Akash and Kalikant. Jagriti turns off the lights so she can sneak in unnoticed. Suraj steps out to check the fuse, giving Jagriti a moment inside. Kalikant asks Akash how much money one basket can carry, and Akash estimates about Rs 1 crore per basket. Kalikant concludes that they’ll need 15 baskets in total.
Just then, the power comes back on, and Suraj catches Jagriti inside the study. When asked what she’s doing there, Jagriti claims she came to share good news: Alex has agreed to reduce the compensation. She says she had a friendly chat with him and even explained the Indian tax system, which helped change his mind. Although Kalikant appreciates the lowered amount, he warns her not to get involved in business decisions again.
The following day, Suraj and Jagriti go to the temple and pray. Suraj, holding a gun, tells Jagriti he won’t let her mess up the deal. But Jagriti simply shows him a handful of rice grains, replying calmly that these grains hold the real answer to his threats. Meanwhile, Ganga struggles with her tight bangle, and Jagriti asks Suraj to help her remove it. Afterward, Ganga blesses Suraj, and he tells Jagriti that with his mother’s blessings, she won’t be able to ruin anything. Jagriti gives him a sharp and confident reply.
But Suraj isn’t done scheming. He secretly adds weights to Jagriti’s basket, hoping it’ll slow her down or make her collapse. As she tries to carry the unusually heavy basket, Jagriti quickly realizes something’s wrong. She cleverly says that Kalindi, being the eldest, should carry the heaviest basket. Kalindi agrees and takes it from her.
Before leaving, Jagriti warns Suraj that she has invited some friends who will ruin the deal. Suraj brushes it off. Later, when their group is stopped at a police checkpost, the officers insist on inspecting the baskets. Suraj allows them to open one—he has already prepared a clean one just for this situation. The police find nothing suspicious and let them go.
Mocking Jagriti, Suraj asks if these were the “friends” she was referring to. He smirks and walks away, thinking he has outsmarted her again. But Jagriti, holding a few rice grains in her hand, quietly thinks to herself, “My real friends will arrive now.”
Episode ends.
