Soon, there is a leap of one month and it is shown that both Jigna and Sheena (Bakool's wives) are pregnant with his children. Kokila and Ranjeet are overjoyed. Eventually, everything is revealed in front of everyone and all the characters realize that Bakul was a victim of circumstances and not a fraudster.

In an interview for Colors TV UK, Jigna was described by Shruti as Bakool's first wife and states that they were married when they were really young.
