On August 15th, 2024, the episode of Shaitani Rasmein revealed a chilling twist in Malik’s plot, as he moved forward with a dangerous and manipulative plan that put Nikki’s life at great risk. Malik declared that no one needed to perform the old Shaitani Rasmein rituals anymore. Instead, he commanded that Nikki should be the one to carry out the new Shaitani Rasmein, which involved retrieving a powerful substance known as “jivan-ras.”
Nikki, aware of the peril involved, hesitated, but Malik insisted. She expressed her fear, acknowledging that she would once again be risking her life to obtain the jivan-ras. Piyush, who was present, couldn’t hide his anger and concern for Nikki, glaring at Malik with undisguised hostility. Malik, noticing this, taunted Piyush, claiming that he could see the pain in his eyes. Unwilling to confront Malik directly, Piyush stormed off, with Nikki quickly following him.
In a moment of vulnerability, Nikki tried to explain herself to Piyush, telling him that he had misunderstood her intentions. However, Piyush was in no mood to listen, accusing her of betraying him. Nikki, desperate to make him understand, insisted that she only loved him. But Piyush coldly reminded her of the night she had spent with Malik, a betrayal he couldn’t forgive.
Before Nikki could explain further, Netra intervened, reminding Piyush of his responsibility to keep Nikki safe until Malik’s return. She led Nikki away, leaving Piyush with his unresolved feelings of betrayal and pain.
Back in the shadows, Malik was already giving new orders to Netra, instructing her to ensure that Piyush did not touch Nikki. Netra agreed, but she was curious about Malik’s true intentions. She asked him how he planned to transform Nikki into Swarnaprabha, a powerful entity with mystical abilities. Malik explained that Swarnaprabha had once undertaken a dangerous mission, venturing to five locations where the most powerful figures of the dark world resided. These locations were shrouded in mystery, and even Malik did not fully understand why Swarnaprabha had gone there.
As Malik shared his plan, a terrifying figure, known as the Maha Shaitan, called upon a demonic creature. He ordered the creature to head to Bhurangarh and warn Malik that he could never defeat the Maha Shaitan. Unfazed by the looming threat, Malik continued with his scheme. He revealed to Netra that he had decided to send Nikki to those same five places that Swarnaprabha had visited. By surviving the dangers in those locations, Nikki would become Swarnaprabha and gain immense power.
Netra, understanding the gravity of Malik’s plan, pointed out that if Nikki succeeded in becoming Swarnaprabha, she would gain the strength to potentially challenge even Malik. But Malik, confident in his own cunning, assured her that Swarnaprabha would never be able to defeat him. Instead, he planned to use Nikki’s newfound power to his advantage. Malik’s ultimate goal was to defeat the Maha Shaitan by harnessing the strength of his five commanders, who resided in the five dangerous locations. By doing so, Malik intended to show the Maha Shaitan his true place.
Meanwhile, Aarihi, another character caught in the web of deceit and manipulation, harbored her own dark intentions. She was determined to ensure that Nikki would never find peace. Aarihi taunted Piyush, reminding him that Nikki was risking her life to bring jivan-ras for Malik, despite having spent a night with him. Aarihi’s words cut deep, leaving Piyush in tears as he struggled with his emotions.
As the episode progressed, Netra dragged Nikki into a dark room, where a sense of impending doom hung heavy in the air. Nikki, desperate and frightened, pleaded with Netra to let her speak with Piyush one last time. But Netra, cold and unyielding, refused. Suddenly, a man appeared with a knife, causing Nikki to panic. The scene grew even more gruesome as Nikki watched in horror while the man slaughtered a goat, the show’s ominous title song playing in the background.
Netra, meanwhile, was lost in thought, recalling how Malik had instructed her to give an antidote to Nikki. Piyush, unaware of the full extent of Malik’s plans, appeared at the scene. But Netra, determined to follow Malik’s orders, commanded him to leave, even threatening to remove her glasses, a gesture that hinted at her hidden power. Nikki, fearing for Piyush’s safety, begged him to go. Netra, unmoved by Nikki’s pleas, inflicted pain on her, further tormenting the young woman. She then ordered Nikki to proceed with Malik’s plan. As the episode drew to a close, Malik experienced a haunting vision of Nikki, his obsession with her growing ever stronger.
In the precap, a chilling warning was issued by Malik. He coldly informed Nikki that if she failed in her mission to retrieve the jivan-ras, there would be deadly consequences—he would kill someone to enforce his ruthless will.
The episode was a harrowing depiction of manipulation, betrayal, and the dangerous lengths Malik would go to achieve his sinister goals. Nikki, caught in the crossfire of Malik’s power struggle with the Maha Shaitan, faced a perilous path ahead, with her life and the lives of those she cared about hanging in the balance.
