MUMBAI: Kumkum Bhagya is a popular show, and it is easy to see why. It appeals to those who believe that opposites attract as well as those who believe in fate and that if fate brings two people together, they will stay together regardless of what happens.

The show is currently focusing on Prachi and Ranbir and how they are dealing with their ups and downs. Rhea is adamant about creating a distance between Prachi and Ranbir.

Previously, we saw that Aaliya tells Rhea that one drink has the power to separate two lovers. Rhea inquires if they can use the concept again. They are overheard by Shahana. Aaliya and Rhea catch her and ask if she's listening in on Prachi's conversation. Shahana claims she came to inquire if they would like any cool drinks. Rhea suspects Shahana is planning something. 

Aaliya tells her to concentrate on Ranbir and not on anything else. Rhea needs coffee, so Preeti asks the cook to make it for her. Ranbir inquires about the bhaang drinks with the staff. He should ask Aaliya about the bhaang, the servant says, because she was giving the thandai to everyone. Ranbir recalls snatching the thandai from Aaliya's grasp. He believes Aaliya is incapable of doing this with him, but she will go to any length for Rhea.

In the upcoming episode, we see Prachi criticizing Ranbir. When Ranbir returns to his room, he discovers Prachi is nowhere to be seen until Prachi emerges from the washroom. Ranbir is taken aback when he sees her. He inquires as to what she is doing in his room. He claims that he slept in the study room and that he had no idea if she slept in his room. She tells him not to try to lie if he can't and not to lie unless he's completely helpless.

He inquires as to what her issue is that she has such a negative opinion of him. He claims that her every word is hurtful to him and that she only wants to hurt him. She inquires as to why he creates situations in which he is injured. She claims that if he had told her he was sleeping in the room, she would not have come to accept his favor. 

She claims that his arms were her biggest safe-haven; she used to feel safe, happy, and protected in his arms, but not anymore. She claims that his touch now makes her uncomfortable. Her rudeness has hurt him once more.

Prachi is frustrated with Ranbir. She tells him that she was proud of her husband, their love, and their marriage, but that he ended it all. Ranbir promises her that even if he dies, he will never betray her. She slaps him to stop him from talking about death. Ranbir sobs and clutches his cheek. Prachi is also hurt that she slapped Ranbir.

Will Prachi ever forgive Ranbir?
