Mangal Lakshmi – Lakshmi Ka Safar 28th August 2025 Written Update on SerialGossip.in
The episode begins with Lakshmi happily telling Karthik that they need to take Imarti to the hospital for a checkup for the baby. Karthik replies that her happiness makes him happy too. As they enter their room, they wonder why it is so dark. When Karthik switches on the light, the bulb suddenly blasts. Karthik immediately shields Lakshmi. They assume it happened because the bulb was old. Karthik says he will bring a new bulb, while Lakshmi insists she will clean it up and goes to get the things. Meanwhile, a masked person(Jia)secretly leaves their room—it is revealed that she was behind the blast.
Elsewhere, Sanjana tells Gayatri that she is eager to see Imarti’s face as she feels suspicious about her. Lakshmi asks Imarti to eat food. When Imarti begins eating, Gayatri and Sanjana try to catch a glimpse of her face but fail. After finishing, Imarti goes to close the curtain when her ghoonghat accidentally slips. At that moment, Lakshmi enters to give her clothes. Imarti hurriedly covers her face and warns Lakshmi not to see her, saying that if anyone sees her face, her mannat will break.
Lakshmi questions her about such a strange mannat, adding that at least a woman should be allowed to see her face. She then stands in front of Imarti with her eyes closed and helps cover her with the ghoonghat again. She assures her, “Don’t worry, I didn’t see your face.” Relieved, Jia (disguised as Imarti) agrees. Lakshmi asks her to get ready and leaves.
Later, Jia receives a phone call. She assures the caller, “Don’t worry. This time everything will go as planned. Karthik’s baby is in my womb, and I will use this baby as my weapon.”
Jia then places thrones pieces in the pathway decorated with red roses to hurt Lakshmi during the Ganesh idol’s arrival. Umesh praises Nidhi’s arrangements as Karthik and Lakshmi arrive joyfully with Bappa. They dance in celebration. Imarti also joins the dance, shocking everyone. Jia/ Imarti pretends to slip, and Karthik rushes to hold her. He notices she has twisted her ankle and fixes it. Jia calls him a magician for curing her pain. Umesh reminds Karthik to bring Bappa inside as it’s the muhurat.
Lakshmi carries Bappa inside, walking over the rose petals. Lakshmi suddenly feels pain and wonders how thorns ended up in the flowers. She struggles to walk and nearly falls, but Karthik catches her. Both continue carrying Bappa, even though Karthik also gets hurt by the hidden thrones. Lakshmi insists they cannot stop before completing the pratishthapan. Together, they endure the pain and perform the sthapana. Jia is left stunned.
Gayatri then notices blood under Karthik’s feet and questions him. He reveals that Lakshmi is also injured due to thrones in the path. Umesh asks Nidhi why she didn’t check the decoration properly. Imarti/Jia covers up, saying roses naturally have thorns. Gayatri scolds Lakshmi for allowing Karthik to get hurt with her, but Karthik intervenes and defends Lakshmi. Karthik takes Lakshmi with him. He removes thrones from her feet and she removes thrones from his feet. Jia notices them from far.
Episode ends.
