On August 23, 2024, tensions ran high in the latest episode of Pukaar as characters found themselves caught in a web of deceit and conflicting emotions. The episode began with Koel expressing her frustration to Mayuri, feeling deeply upset over Vedika’s actions.

She suggested that Koel manipulate Saraswati to gain her sympathy, further deepening the conflict.
Pukaar- Saraswati betrayed by Vedika’s actions
Later, Koel and Saraswati engaged in a conversation where they both voiced their discontent with Vedika. Saraswati was particularly hurt, feeling betrayed by Vedika’s actions. Despite everything, she found it difficult to stop believing in Vedika’s words, which only added to her emotional turmoil. She broke down in front of Koel, leading to a heartfelt moment where they shared a hug. Unbeknownst to them, Mayuri was eavesdropping on their conversation.
Pukaar- Padma advised Vedika to let go of her emotions
Meanwhile, Vedika was grappling with her own frustrations. She confided in Padma about her struggle to make Saraswati understand that she was her real daughter. Padma advised her to let go of her emotions, encouraging her to move forward. Vedika, trying to put on a brave face, shared with her foster parents, Padma and Kishorilal, that she was not feeling as bad as they might think. She also mentioned that hugging Saraswati felt similar to hugging Padma, highlighting the complex emotions she was experiencing.
Pukaar- Padma concerned for Vedika
Padma, concerned for Vedika, asked her what her next move would be. Vedika revealed that she had taken the first step against the Chakravyuh and that she intended to keep the promise she had made to Saraswati. She looked at a file given to her by Kishorilal, feeling hopeful that it would help her carry out her plan.
Pukaar- Rajeshwari confronted Mayuri
Back at the Maheswari house, tensions escalated further. Rajeshwari confronted Mayuri about a message she had received when Vedika had revealed her true identity. She also accused Mayuri of stealing a Kalash from Vedika’s house and tampering with Koel’s DNA report. In a fit of rage, Rajeshwari began to choke Mayuri, only to be stopped by Koel, who arrived just in time to save her. Koel warned Rajeshwari not to overstep her bounds, declaring that she would not tolerate any harm coming to her or Mayuri, as she was Saraswati’s daughter, Jahnvi.
Rajeshwari, unfazed, made a snide remark in response, but Koel wasn’t backing down. She threatened to expose Rajeshwari’s dirty politics to the world, a threat that left Rajeshwari seething with anger. Koel then left the room with Mayuri, leaving Rajeshwari to fume.
Following the confrontation, Koel confided in Mayuri, expressing her desire to leave the Maheswari house, which she felt was too dangerous for them. She also shared her fear of losing Mayuri, but Mayuri reassured her, insisting that nothing bad would happen. Mayuri also praised Koel’s performance in front of Saraswati, but Koel, feeling conflicted, admitted that her feelings toward Saraswati were genuine and that she wasn’t just acting. She confessed to hating Vedika but also felt guilty for deceiving both Saraswati and Vedika. However, she was adamant that she was doing everything for Mayuri’s happiness.
After Koel left, Mayuri found herself lost in thought. She was worried that Koel might eventually discover her true identity. Her alter ego appeared, taunting her with the possibility that once Vedika learned the truth about Koel, nothing could stop Koel from reuniting with her real family. Determined not to let that happen, Mayuri vowed to keep the truth hidden at all costs.
The next day, Sagar questioned Koel about her next plan, but Koel brushed him off with a flimsy excuse before leaving. Shortly after, Rajeshwari arrived with Digvijay, suggesting that Sagar and Koel should get married, now that it was revealed Koel was the real Jahnvi. This suggestion shocked everyone, especially Vedika, who looked visibly hurt by Rajeshwari’s words.
As the episode drew to a close, the tension only seemed to escalate. In the precap, Saraswati shared a wish with Koel, and Vedika assured her that they could make it come true. Meanwhile, Sagar was determined to prove to everyone that Koel was not the real Jahnvi, setting the stage for even more drama in the upcoming episodes.
The intricate web of lies, emotions, and power struggles in Pukaar continued to unfold, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating what would happen next.
Episode ends.
