On August 5th, 2024, the latest episode of “Maati Se Bandhi Dor” aired, bringing intense drama and emotional turmoil. The episode begins with Rannvijay desperately trying to keep Vaiju conscious. He pleads with her not to pass out, but Vaiju, exhausted, responds that she is tired of his scoldings. Rannvijay tries to motivate her by reminding her of their loved ones, Jaya, Aaji, and Kaveri. He urges her to stay strong and fight to reclaim their fields. Vaiju, in her usual teasing manner, mocks him, but Rannvijay insists that she cannot close her eyes now. Despite his efforts to stop a vehicle for help, none stop, and Vaiju eventually loses consciousness in his arms, leaving Rannvijay distraught.
An ambulance finally arrives, and at Jaya’s home, Vasundhara praises her for beautifully decorating the room. However, Jaya feels uneasy, wondering if Rannvijay will return soon. Vasundhara tries to reassure her, suggesting that Rannvijay might not be answering calls because he is on his way back. Meanwhile, in the ambulance, a doctor begins treating Vaiju. Jaya’s excitement turns to shock when she receives a call from Rannvijay, who informs her that Vaiju has been shot. Vasundhara is also stunned by the news and relays it to Nagraj.
Nagraj urgently asks Rannvijay which hospital Vaiju is being taken to. Rannvijay, still en route, explains that it will take some time to reach the hospital. He then notices Vaiju struggling to breathe and inquires about her condition. The doctor reveals that Vaiju is in shock. Rannvijay, desperate, speaks to Vaiju, telling her that she cannot leave him, even though she remains unconscious. The doctor administers cardioversion and oxygenation in an attempt to stabilize her. Rannvijay anxiously asks if Vaiju will recover, but the doctor suggests calling her relatives as a precaution.
Upon reaching the hospital, Vaiju, still conscious but weak, tells Rannvijay to remove any signs of their marriage before their family arrives. Rannvijay hesitates, but Vaiju insists she does not want to hurt their family, especially Jaya. Reluctantly, Rannvijay complies, removing her bangles, mangalsutra, and vermillion. Vaiju notes that the vermillion is difficult to remove, so Rannvijay tries harder, his tears mingling with her hairline until it is finally erased. He is emotional as Vaiju is wheeled into the operation theatre, and he waits outside.
Rannvijay anxiously seeks an update from the doctor, who explains that Vaiju has lost a significant amount of blood and would have been better off if brought to the hospital sooner. Rannvijay blames himself for the delay. Meanwhile, Jaya and Vasundhara struggle to reach the hospital, stuck in traffic due to Janmashtami celebrations. Jaya calls Rannvijay for news about Vaiju. An inspector then informs Rannvijay that the bullet was meant for him, fired by Jaktab, but Vaiju took the shot instead. Rannvijay is overcome with guilt, recalling his past harshness towards Vaiju. A nurse then informs him that they need AB negative blood for Vaiju. Rannvijay, being a universal donor, volunteers for the transfusion. The episode ends with Rannvijay preparing to donate blood.
In the upcoming episode, the doctor will inform Rannvijay that they could not save Vaiju’s life, adding to the emotional weight of the story.
