Nutan’s Painful Sacrifice for Moon’s Future:
The episode of Jhanak 13 May 2025 Written Update opens with a shocking truth that shakes everyone in the village. Nutan reveals to Aniruddh that Moon, the little girl she has raised, is actually his and Arshi’s daughter. Aniruddh is stunned and asks Nutan to explain. She shares how she decided to protect Moon until the right time came to return her to her real parents. Nutan explains that Parashar saved her and Moon from danger years ago and gave them a home in the village. Aniruddh asks to see his daughter, but Nutan says Moon is likely sleeping at home. She insists that Aniruddh take Moon to the city for a better future, even though it breaks her heart.
Nutan admits she loves Moon like her own child and has cared for her for five years. She says Moon sees her as a mother, but Nutan believes Moon deserves the love of her real parents. She tells Aniruddh that keeping Moon would be selfish, as she can only offer love and care, not the bright future Moon could have with him. Aniruddh is moved but says the situation is complicated. He worries about how Arshi and his family will react. He asks for time to think until the evening and shares a recording that could convince Arshi of the truth. Nutan promises to bring Moon to him the next day, though the thought of losing her makes her tremble.
Later, Parashar arrives, concerned because Nutan took so long, and Moon is crying at home, unable to sleep without her. Aniruddh mentions he plans to leave the village tomorrow. Parashar agrees it’s a good idea, as Aniruddh’s factory plan won’t work in the village. However, when Aniruddh suggests building a school instead, Parashar supports the idea, saying it will help the children and create jobs. Parashar takes Nutan home, and Shankar, a villager, tells Aniruddh that Nutan and Parashar are married and have a daughter, confusing Aniruddh further.
The next day, the village is busy with Menka’s wedding preparations. Menka tells her friends she’ll miss them after moving to the city with her husband. Suddenly, Jeet and his friends appear, scaring the girls. Jeet teases Menka about not inviting him but says he’ll keep visiting. The girls are relieved when he leaves but remain cautious, as Jeet and his gang often trouble the village. Meanwhile, Abhijeet and his family arrive for the wedding. He gives money to his father for Menka’s marriage, showing his love for his niece. Ishani, Abhijeet’s daughter, notices an incomplete rangoli and offers to finish it. However, Grandma insists Ishani should stay in the village and get married soon, against Abhijeet’s wish for her to study and become an IPS officer.
Back in Simbulponi, Aniruddh feels betrayed by Nutan, believing she hid her marriage to Parashar and their daughter. He decides never to meet her again. At Nutan’s house, Moon asks where they’re going, and Nutan tearfully tells her she must go to the city with her real father. Moon refuses, clinging to Nutan and saying she only wants her mother. Veer informs Nutan that Aniruddh is waiting outside. Kanka, a villager, confronts Nutan, accusing her of troubling Moon. Parashar arrives and learns Nutan is sending Moon away, shocking him. Nutan takes Moon to Aniruddh, who calls Nutan a deceiver, saying Arshi was right about her.
Parashar demands to know why Nutan is sending Moon with Aniruddh. Nutan reveals Moon is going to the city with her real father, leaving Parashar stunned. Kanka accuses Nutan of being shameless, and Bua, another villager, says Nutan doesn’t belong in the village. Moon cries, refusing to leave Nutan. Parashar asks how Nutan could betray Moon, but Nutan insists she hasn’t deceived anyone. She begs Parashar not to question her now, as she’s too heartbroken to answer. Aniruddh takes Moon and leaves, while Nutan struggles with her pain.
Nutan tells the villagers she’ll leave if they think she’s wrong. The women defend her, saying they trust her. Parashar asks why Nutan didn’t go with Aniruddh if he was her husband, and she clarifies they were never married. She asks for time to explain, saying Moon’s departure has left her unable to think. Nutan requests to be alone, overwhelmed by her loss. Previous Episode
