Forced Marriages and Drama: Jamai No. 1's Jaw-Dropping Episode

The episode begins with Neel coming out from a pond. As he steps out, his phone rings and his friend on the other end asks about his whereabouts. Neel explains that he is performing his morning worship dedicated to Lord Shiva. Meanwhile, at the wedding venue, the atmosphere is abuzz with preparations. The priest at the mandap requests the bride to be called. The bride’s mother informs him that they are waiting for, Kanchan Motwani, to arrive. Elsewhere, Kanchan is stuck in traffic, sitting in her car. A beggar approaches her window and asks for money, but instead of giving him alms, she sprays something into his eyes and dismisses him. In the car, Kanchan’s mother initiates a conversation, asking when Riddhi, plans to get married. Kanchan confidently responds that Riddhi will marry only someone truly special. Neel eventually arrives at the wedding venue and approaches the watchman to request parking assistance. Shortly after, he is seen sneaking into Riya’s room—the bride who is about to get married.

In another part of the city, workers are staging a protest against Riddhi. As tensions rise, Riddhi steps out of her office to address the situation. Vicky offers to handle the protestors, but upon seeing the large crowd, he becomes apprehensive. Riddhi remains resolute, asserting that she will not change her stance because of opposition. Despite warnings from her driver about the risks, Riddhi insists on driving herself. She gets into the car, and Vicky reluctantly joins her. Undeterred, Riddhi speeds towards the workers, forcing them to scatter as the car approaches. Back at the wedding, questions arise about whether Riddhi will attend. Kanchan reassures everyone that Riddhi will come, as her mother personally invited her. While driving, Riddhi tells Vicky that she doesn’t believe in the institution of marriage, viewing it as a system where women are often treated like maids. On the other hand, Neil is busy advising Riya. He explains that marriage is a lifelong commitment, a journey of seven lifetimes, and emphasizes the importance of responsibility in making it work. Riya, however, is skeptical, believing that it is too late to fix her situation. At the mandap, Kanchan grows suspicious of the bride, who is veiled. She insists on lifting the veil, only to discover that it is Neil disguised in bridal attire. Shock ripples through the crowd as everyone demands to know where Riya is. Neel firmly cites the laws against forced marriages and reveals that Riya is safe and where she truly needs to be. He further discloses that Riya is in love with someone else.

In a dramatic sequence, Riya is shown running away from the mandap, with Neel stepping in to protect her from being forced into an unwanted marriage. Kanchan confronts Neel, asserting that love is not sufficient for a successful marriage; financial stability is equally critical. Unknown to her, Riddhi is standing nearby and overhears Neel’s arguments in favor of love and the sanctity of marriage. Later, in an unexpected turn of events, Riddhi accidentally falls into Neel’s arms, and they share a brief moment of locked eyes. Neel then takes the car keys from Riddhi, stating that he needs the vehicle to reach Riya and ensure her safety.
