Jhanak 23rd January 2026 Written Update on SerialGossip.in
The episode begins with Jhanak dreaming about the moments that she spent with Rishi. Then she dreams of Ankush’s words about killing Rishi. She murmurs she won’t let anything happen to Rishi, and she will save Indranath too. Indranath calls her. Jhanak wakes up and apologizes to him for sleeping. Indranath says it’s fine. He asks her why she is tensed when everything is fine. He says he feels like he can trust Jhanak; that’s why he wanted her beside him. But it seems like she is tired because of him. Jhanak tells him thanks for trusting her. She says anyone can betray. Indranath gets shocked hearing this. He asks her what she wanted to tell him earlier.
Jhanak is about to tell him something but stops when Ankush’s doctor, Manish, enters the room. Indranath asks whether Jhanak has any problem. Jhanak says they will talk later. Manish says the senior doctor wants to talk to Jhanak. He takes Jhanak out and asks how Indranath regained his consciousness. Jhanak asks him how she would know. Manish says Indranath won’t be conscious now if Jhanak injected the medicine that he gave her to Indranath then. He shows the letter, which she kept in Indranath’s medical report. And now Jhanak’s loved ones will face the consequences of her mistake.
On the other side, Tanushri calls Rishi, but there is no response from the other side. She asks why Rishi is not picking up the call. She says now Aditi can trace Rishi’s location. Aditi says she is checking. She reveals Rishi is in Kolkata. Indumati asks, then, why Rishi said he went out of Kolkata. Aditi says Rishi lied. And Rishi won’t pick up their calls. Neelu says Jhanak is also involved in this. Abhimanyu says he doesn’t have words to speak. Neelu says she already said something about it, but no one believed her. And now it has been proved that Rishi and Jhanak are fooling them.
Tanushri says she never thought Rishi would lie like this. She apologized to Aditi. She tells Aditi, “Let’s go to the hospital to talk to Jhanak.” Abhimanyu says that’s because the hospital and Indranath’s treatment are going on, so hospital management won’t allow them inside the hospital. Aditi says she doesn’t even want to see Jhanak’s face. Abhimanyu asks whether Aditi doesn’t want to talk about Rishi. Tanushri asks how she can bring her son without her daughter-in-law. Aditi says she is not Rishi’s wife for him. And Rishi wants to divorce her and marry Jhanak. So she can’t stay as Tanushri’s daughter-in-law.
Meanwhile, Ankush shows missed calls to Rishi. Rishi says he wants to talk to his family. Ankush orders Rishi to tell what he says. Rishi asks what if he refuses. Ankush says Rishi doesn’t have any other choice than following his orders. He shows the CCTV footage of the hospital. Rishi sees Jhanak. He warns Ankush to not even touch Jhanak.
Ankush says Jhanak will disappear permanently if Rishi does not obey him. And he can involve Rishi’s family members too in this. He tells Rishi that the latter can go to work if Jhanak did his work then. He notices Tanushri is calling Rishi. Rishi says he wants to talk to his mother. Ankush refuses to give permission. He says he wants everything in his control. Rishi asks Ankush to imagine what will happen to the latter in the end. Ankush says Rishi should stay silent and behave obediently. He leaves from there.
After some time, Ankush returns and reveals Jhanak tried to outsmart him. He says Jhanak is really foolish and immature; that’s why he wrote a letter to alert Indranath. Rishi says Jhanak won’t betray him. Ankush says Jhanak chose Indranath over Rishi. Rishi says Ankush is wrong. And Jhanak wants to save everyone. Ankush calls Manish and puts the phone on speaker.
Manish informs Ankush that Indranath regained consciousness. Ankush gets shocked hearing that. He asks how that is possible. Manish tells Ankush that he thinks Jhanak changed the medicine. Ankush says Jhanak took him lightly. He tells Manish to wait for his next call and disconnects the call. Rishi tells Ankush that Jhanak is trying to save lives because she is Doctor. Ankush says Jhanak will be punished definitely. Rishi warns Ankush not to touch Jhanak. Ankush says he can touch Rishi. He orders his men to beat Rishi. He records that and sends it to Manish.
In the hospital, Jhanak gets shocked seeing Ankush’s men beating Rishi. Manish warns her not to shout. Jhanak requests him to stop that. Manish says Jhanak should not have taken Ankush lightly. Jhanak apologizes to him. Manish warns her to not try to be a heroine. And don’t be careless again. Jhanak nods at him. They go to Indranath’s room.
The senior doctor sees the test report. He asks Jhanak why she gave different medicine to Indranath. And how can Jhanak make a mistake? He says he will do surgery once Indranath becomes stable. He leaves from there. The nurse warns Jhanak not to go against Ankush.
The episode ends.
Precap: Tanushri asks Jhanak where Rishi is. Aditi asks Jhanak not to lie; Rishi is on a secretive assignment. Jhanak tries to tell the truth to them but stops seeing the nurse there. Aditi says they are worried, but Jhanak is playing her game. Jhanak asks them to think whatever they want. She lies; she doesn’t know where Rishi is.
Our Take: Aditi finds out Rishi is in Kolkata and lied about his assignment. But she misunderstands; Rishi lied to be with Jhanak. Her insecurity will ruin more things for her. Ankush punishes Rishi because Jhanak tried to expose him. And Jhanak’s plan was not foolproof, so she should not try to act oversmart. Because Rishi got beaten up due to Jhanak’s foolish plan.
Will Jhanak tell the truth to Aditi? Will Aditi try to see the truth?
