On August 20, 2024, the latest episode of Kundali Bhagya unfolded a dramatic and intense storyline that left viewers on the edge of their seats. The episode began with Nidhi speculating whether Preeta was dead, creating an air of suspense right from the start. Meanwhile, Karan, Rajveer, and Palki arrived at a warehouse, desperately searching for Preeta and Kavya. However, Karan, sensing something amiss, remarked that no one seemed to be there. Rajveer, determined not to give up, suggested they search other warehouses.
Simultaneously, a police inspector instructed his driver to head to the warehouse, adding another layer of urgency to the situation. Gurpreet, who was anxiously following the police jeep along with Kareena, Rakhi, and Mohit, questioned where they were going. Kareena, with her characteristic taunt, mentioned they were simply following the police. Despite her bravado, Rakhi couldn’t shake off her restlessness, praying for divine intervention as they continued their pursuit. However, just when things seemed dire, Mohit, who was driving, announced that the car had broken down, adding to their growing list of worries. Kareena, however, remained optimistic, suggesting they continue searching among the many warehouses nearby.
Inside the warehouse, Preeta found herself in a tense confrontation with Varun, who was intent on forcing Kavya into marriage. Preeta, with a mix of firmness and concern, tried to reason with Varun, explaining that marriage was not a joke and that Kavya had no desire to marry him. This only served to anger Varun further, who, in a fit of rage, pulled out a gun, threatening to kill Preeta if she didn’t keep quiet. Kavya, witnessing this, begged Varun not to harm her mother, but Varun was unmoved, frustrated by what he considered Preeta’s incessant nagging. Sanjana, trying to maintain control of the situation, urged Varun to calm down and focus on their plan to win, reminding him not to waste any more time. Varun, grateful for her reminder, embraced her, expressing his thanks.
Despite the mounting tension, Preeta tried to convince Kavya to escape, insisting that her own fate was strong enough to ensure she would survive. Kavya, however, was resolute, refusing to leave without her mother. Preeta, growing increasingly desperate, warned Kavya that Varun was clearly unhinged and that she should not be forced into a marriage she did not want. Varun, overhearing this, mocked Preeta’s belief that Kavya could escape, pointing out that as her mother, Preeta should know that Kavya would never leave her side. Kavya, still wrestling with her emotions, secretly hoped that Preeta wouldn’t regain her memories of the past, complicating their already fraught situation.
The priest present, sensing the escalating danger, urged Varun to leave quickly. Preeta, undeterred, continued to press Kavya to find the courage to run, but Kavya, overcome with emotion, refused, recalling the moments she had shared with her mother. In a further twist, Datta, one of the goons, aimed a gun at Kavya, coldly warning her that any attempt to escape would result in her death. Varun, seizing the moment, declared that Kavya would have no choice but to do as he commanded, ordering her to sit at the marriage mandap. Reluctantly, Kavya complied, but in a sudden act of defiance, she grabbed a piece of burning wood from the ceremonial fire, using it to threaten Varun. She assured Preeta that she would bring Rajveer and Karan to rescue them before making a break for it.
Unfortunately, Kavya’s escape attempt was thwarted as the goons quickly caught her. Varun, clearly enjoying his perceived upper hand, taunted Kavya for trying to flee, but Kavya, undeterred, insisted she would not marry him. The verbal sparring between the two intensified, with Varun asserting that he would force the marriage to happen, while Kavya boldly declared that it would never occur. She further enraged Varun by revealing that she had already informed Palki of their location, warning him that her family would not let him get away with this. Varun, dismissing her claims as lies, retorted that no one was coming to save her, and if she continued to resist, he would have no qualms about killing her. As the episode came to a close, Varun aimed his gun at Kavya, leaving viewers with a cliffhanger and a tense anticipation of what would happen next.
Episode ends.
