On August 9, 2024, the episode of “Maati Se Bandhi Dor” presented a dramatic turn of events, focusing on the complicated relationships within a family. The episode began with Vasundhara asking Rannvijay and Jaya to join her for a meal. However, Rannvijay mentioned that he had already eaten at the hospital with Vaiju. Despite this, Vasundhara insisted, pointing out that they hadn’t eaten together since their marriage. Sulekha then remarked that Rannvijay seemed more concerned with Vaiju than with his wife, Jaya, and provocatively asked when he had married Vaiju. This question shocked Vasundhara, prompting her to demand an explanation.
Sulekha responded by revealing hospital documents where Rannvijay had signed as Vaiju’s husband. Although Rannvijay acknowledged that he had signed the papers without realizing their implications, he was ready to face the truth. The other family members were equally surprised and started questioning Rannvijay. Sulekha suggested that Jaya had the right to demand answers from her husband. However, Jaya, in a surprising move, stated that she had no questions for Rannvijay and that he did not need to explain himself.
Jaya defended Rannvijay, asserting that he had only signed the documents to save Vaiju’s life when she was in critical condition. She expressed her complete trust in Rannvijay, stating that life had put him in a difficult situation, which led to this mistake. Sulekha, however, insisted that by signing the papers, Rannvijay had inadvertently given Vaiju the rights of a wife. Jaya, still standing by her husband, accused Sulekha of only wanting to create more problems for Rannvijay rather than caring about her well-being. She assured Rannvijay of her unwavering faith in him, while Vasundhara suggested that they all move on from this issue and have their meal together. Meanwhile, Nagraj confronted Sulekha, trying to figure out her true intentions, as Sulekha continued to harbor doubts about Rannvijay’s actions.
Elsewhere, at the hospital, Vaiju was contemplating when she could finally escape the hospital food. The nurses, who had grown fond of her, mentioned that they would miss her conversations. In a touching moment, Vaiju gifted the nurses small plants that she had grown from apple seeds. They hugged her in return, and Vaiju reflected on the death of Durga, realizing that she needed to rediscover her identity.
Later that night, Rannvijay sat alone, deeply pondering the trust that Jaya had placed in him. Despite the turmoil, Jaya approached him and reminded him of how he had trusted her even when she had said many things to hurt him. Rannvijay recalled their past, including the time they had broken up and later reconciled to get married. Overcome with emotion, Rannvijay hugged Jaya, asking for her forgiveness for not being able to spend enough time with her since their marriage.
Jaya reassured him, telling him that they needed to make room for Vaiju in their lives, especially since she would be discharged from the hospital the next day. Rannvijay then revealed to Jaya that he had come up with a solid plan to keep Vaiju at their home. Meanwhile, at the hospital, Vaiju was making plans to return to Jhumri Patan. Sulekha visited her and, while checking on Vaiju’s belongings, sarcastically remarked how Vaiju had been a constant presence in Rannvijay and Jaya’s lives since their marriage. Vaiju calmly informed her that she was planning to go back to Jhumri Patan. The episode ended with Sulekha smirking, indicating that she might have other plans in mind.
The precap for the next episode teased further drama, with Rannvijay telling Vaiju that her gift was the best among all, prompting Jaya to question where she stood in his life.
