TUJHSE MUKAMMAL | PART-17 | Khamosh Mohabbat..

Part 17 Recap

Ishani and Vedika grow closer over several days. Vedika increasingly talks about how kind and supportive Ishani has been—not only to her, but also to her family—while still thinking of her as a friend. Ishani, meanwhile, is quietly falling in love.

At Vedika’s medical appointment, Ishani checks in with the psychologist about how best to support her. While they wait, Megha teases Vedika about Ishani’s long private conversation with the doctor, prompting Vedika to wonder if Ishani has a problem she could help with. When Ishani returns, she gently tells Vedika not to take Megha’s rambling too seriously.

Ishani then takes Vedika to visit an NGO-supported village school. Vedika hands out chocolates and laughs with the children, and Ishani is visibly moved to see her smile. Before they leave, Ishani suddenly hugs her. Vedika freezes, startled by her racing heartbeat, while Ishani tells her that her laugh is beautiful and promises to bring her back whenever she wants.

The mood turns serious when Ishani accompanies Indira to the police station to demand progress in finding the man responsible for Vedika’s attack. She confronts the officers with information she has gathered herself and warns that she will take the matter to higher authorities if they continue to make excuses. Outside, Indira calms her down. Ishani breaks down over how much Vedika has lost, then admits plainly: she has fallen in love with Vedika. Indira responds with warmth and acceptance, saying she had already sensed Ishani’s feelings and wishing her happiness. Vedika, however, still knows nothing about the confession.

That night, Vedika calls because Ishani hasn’t checked in all day. The brief, affectionate conversation reassures Ishani, and she is delighted when Vedika agrees to visit her home the next day. Vedika is welcomed warmly by Ishani’s family, including her grandmother, who is gentler than Ishani expects. Aarav keeps her laughing, and Ishani’s mother reveals that Ishani mentions Vedika at home almost every day—an admission that leaves Vedika feeling a little flustered.

Ishani shows Vedika her tidy room and bookshelf, while Aarav proudly claims his much messier room still deserves a “nine out of ten.” Later, Vedika falls asleep as Ishani works nearby. Ishani quietly watches over her and adjusts her pillow, careful not to startle her. Aarav notices Ishani’s protectiveness and jokes that she is becoming possessive of her “friend.” Megha joins the teasing, correctly guessing that Ishani invited Vedika over to help with her facial dressing.

As the episode ends, Megha encourages Ishani to be patient if she hopes to keep Vedika close. Ishani admits it won’t be simple—and Vedika still has no idea how deeply Ishani feels.
