Lies Of The Heart - Season 1 - Episode 5

At Urmi and Samrat’s residence, Samrat and Urmi discuss their contrasting views about their marriage, with the other, to their best friend’s Trisha and Ishaan. Urmi is super excited that he is the perfect husband for her, while Samrat trivialises the concept of marriage with Ishaan. Trisha apologises to Urmi for her misunderstanding saying that she can always fend out for her and they have a fun time together.

The next morning, its Urmi’s haldi ceremony, with fun and frolic in the house and festivities in full swing. Urmi comes down and Urmi's family performs her Haldi ceremony as the marriage rituals of haldi begin one by one. Same is the case with samrat’s house, just that Samrat is visibly disinterested in such rituals. The haldi rituals begin, while her younger sister takes the chance to do it first but Urmi's sister in-law is given the first chance as custom demands. She complies and satrts the haldi ceremony. Then her sister is called on to do the honours. Trisha comes in and the sisters have a playful haldi session. Urmi’s father looks at her longingly, teary eyed, as she goes through the rituals. While the haldi ceremony is going on in Urmi’s house, while she shyly takes part, being teased by everyone. Samrat’s relatives are getting impatient for the haldi ceremony. On the other hand, Samrat is fully dressed up for work, he gets irritated when his family stops him for haldi. Samrat strictly denies being a part of his Haldi ceremony by declaring that he has some important work to be finished. Ishaan and others are tensed. His mother insists, while he asks her to go ahead with the rituals but he doesn't have the time. All are shocked. His sister in-law tells him that he would have to apply haldi, as it's his marriage after all and the ritual would be incomplete without him. Samrat reprimands her as she tries to come closer, and tells everyone that he has to go, and doesn't believe in all this. He adds that he maybe getting married, but he can't compromise with his work. His relatives try to talk about old traditions and popular belief behind this, but he taunts them and says that he is a nonbeliever. His father tries to convince him of the importance of these traditions, but he scolds him too. Ishaan finally comes to the rescue, saying that work can happen later, and marriage means lots of rituals. Samrat says that he doesn't want to understand and asks him not to begin and again reinforces his descision. His mother asks Ishaan to let go, singing to Samrat’s tune, surprising others, while Samrat approves of her. She says that she won't stop him, but for the sake of the ritual, he can just out a tilak, so that neither the rituals nor the work stops. He resignedly says yes. His sister in-law does the tilaik, and he finishes it robotically and walks out of the house in anger, while the entire house is enjoying.
