‘Chikoo – Ye Ishq Nachaye’: Chikoo leaves for Mumbai to find her mother’s killer 

The first episode of Nilanjana Purkayasstha and Herumb Khot’s “Chikoo – Ye Ishq Nachaye”, the second season of their show “Chikoo Ki Mummy Durr Kei”, went on-air Monday. The episode begins 10 years post the incident when Nupur died. Chikoo, who is in her late teens, is in the final year of college and has been raised by Sameer Khaitan. 

When the episode starts we see Chikoo dancing to “Aaja nachle” and sharing it on her social media. While some are loving her performance, some have trolled her and called her fat and moti. When Sameer comes to her room, he finds her reading something. He tells her that he knows about her talent and also asks her why she doesn’t show her face on her social media. Chikoo shows him the comments she gets and tells him that she doesn’t have the courage to show her face as people will troll her even more. Sameer tells her to do what her heart feels right and insists on taking her to college the next day as it is the first day of her final year. 

Once he leaves, Chikoo takes out a ticket to Mumbai from her bag and is heard saying that she needs to know who pushed her mother that day from the stairs. She is holding the strap of a watch which was in Nupur’s hand when she fell off the stairs. 

The next day, Gajak tries to wake Chikoo but doesn’t get any response. Sameer opens the door but finds her missing. He then gets a message from her saying that she has left for Mumbai. She tells him that she needs to meet her family. Sameer gets upset hearing this and tells Pushpa that Nupur’s death left a void for Chikoo which he could never fill. 

Meanwhile, in Mumbai Mini is ready to go to her college. Kamini tells her that this is her last year in the house and once she finishes college she will be on her own. Later, her sons Aarav and Nivaan come. Aarav wants to become a chef but Kamini tells him that the kitchen is a woman’s world and he shouldn’t be there. She however encourages her other son Nivaan to give his best in the last year of college. 

A little later, Mini sees Chikoo coming to the house and stops her. She tells her that nobody misses her and even if she tries nobody will believe that Chikoo is Payal. She also asks her to not tell anyone that she has been in touch with her all these years through social media. Chikoo then tells her that she is joining her college through a scholarship. Mini then tells her that she needs to come with a partner to the college as its Valentine’s Day. She also tells him about her boyfriend who surprises her every Valentine’s Day. We then see the college cheering for Dhanush as he is about to do some stunt on his bike. 

In the upcoming episodes, we will see that Dhanush goes down on his knees to propose to Mini, but Chikoo accidentally falls right in front of him. He removes his blindfold and is shocked to see her there. Meanwhile, Mini gets irritated seeing this. To know what happens next, keep watching the show.
