**Hyderabad, [Date]** – A recent episode of a popular Telugu serial has ignited a firestorm of controversy, pitting family members against each other and highlighting the impact of online reviews on a local restaurant.
The episode centers around Jyothsna, a young woman resisting an arranged marriage to Charan. Her refusal leads to a heated confrontation with her family, including her mother Sumitra and her grandparents. Charan, surprisingly unfazed, decides to lie to his grandfather, claiming he’s not interested in Jyothsna, and departs.
Left reeling, Sumitra desperately pleads with her mother-in-law, Paru, to intervene and change Jyothsna’s mind. Paru, however, reveals her own selfish motives, lamenting the thwarted plan to secure her granddaughter’s inheritance through Jyothsna’s marriage to Karthik.
Adding fuel to the fire, a viral video surfaces showing Jyothsna, unbeknownst to many, giving negative online reviews to Deepa and Karthik’s restaurant while pretending to support their business. This unexpectedly boosts their restaurant’s popularity, as people flock to try it based on the controversy. Jyothsna, however, uses this positive outcome to further her own goals.
Later, Jyothsna offers Deepa and her daughter, Shaurya, a ride, leading to another clash with Deepa. This confrontation spills over into Jyothsna’s home where she faces further criticism from her aunt Kanchana, culminating in a harsh exchange of words.
Kanchana, eventually expressing compassion, tries to reconcile with Jyothsna, urging her to reconsider the marriage for the sake of family harmony. Karthik, however, delivers a stinging rebuke, revealing Deepa’s true relationship to the family and leaving Jyothsna shocked to learn Deepa is her aunt’s daughter.
The episode concludes with Karthik’s sarcastic offer of sweets from the successful restaurant, a gesture intended to taunt Jyothsna for her manipulative actions and highlighting her negative influence. The scene leaves the audience anticipating further conflict and resolution in upcoming episodes.
