On August 8, 2024, the episode of “Udne Ki Aasha” begins with Sayali dreaming about spending her birthday in a special way with Sachin. As the morning arrives, Sayali tries to wake up Sachin, but he ignores her. This angers Sayali, and she leaves the room in a huff. Juhi then calls Sachin to remind him that it is Sayali’s birthday. Akash and Paresh challenge Sachin to plan something special for her, warning him that Sayali will be very upset if he doesn’t.
Despite Sachin wishing her a happy birthday, Sayali remains angry. Renuka, Roshni, and Tejash appear, and Sachin teases them by giving each a hundred rupees to buy something for Sayali’s birthday. Renuka, annoyed, calls Sayali bad luck. This stirs up memories for Sachin, recalling how Renuka treated him as bad luck during his childhood and never celebrated his birthday like his brothers’. Each time Renuka insults Sayali, it reminds Sachin of his painful past, where he never received his mother’s love.
Determined not to let Renuka treat Sayali as she treated him, Sachin confronts Renuka, asking her to buy sellotape and seal her mouth. Renuka declares they will never celebrate Sayali or Sachin’s birthday at the Deshmukh house. Although Sachin feels disappointed, Paresh advises him to take Sayali out for a date, lifting his spirits as he plans a special outing for her birthday.
Sachin and Sayali visit a temple, where Sachin, with help from Juhi and her mother, prepares a beautiful white garland for Sayali. As Sayali steps out of the car looking stunning in a red sari, Sachin is mesmerized. However, just as he is about to greet her, Monty interrupts, discussing the wedding events. Sachin feels a pang of jealousy as Monty talks to Sayali.
Monty asks Sayali to change the wedding event theme and, learning about her birthday from Juhi, offers her a yellow rose. Sachin, unhappy with this, takes the flower from Monty and tries to crack a joke, but Sayali remains unimpressed, focusing on maintaining respect for her customers. Sachin’s attempt to assert his presence falls flat, and he ends up presenting the yellow flower to Sayali himself, making her, Juhi, and their friends laugh at his childish logic of protecting his wife from other men.
In the next part of the episode, Sachin takes Sayali to a beach to continue celebrating her birthday. They appear happy as Sachin ties jewelry around Sayali’s ankle, and they cut a cake together. Suddenly, Sayali receives a call from her workplace, angering Sachin as their quality time is disrupted. He leaves in frustration, and Sayali is left feeling helpless.
The episode concludes with this tension, highlighting the complex dynamics and past traumas affecting Sachin and Sayali’s relationship.
