Bade Acche Lagte Hain 16th June 2025 Written Update Review: Bhagyashree vs. The World. New Year’s in New Delhi gets a spicy, relatable twist as Bhagyashree navigates nosy neighbors, workplace patriarchy, forced matchmaking, and a furry chaos agent named Kaddu. With a mix of sarcasm, sass, and stubborn independence, Bhagyashree shines as the anti-social heroine we didn’t know we needed this 2025.
The episode opens in New Delhi on New Year’s Day 2025. Confetti hasn’t even settled, and Bhagyashree’s neighbors — Babita and Lajjo — are already on a witch hunt. Their crime scene? A knocked-over dustbin, apparently ravaged by Bhagyashree’s dog Kaddu in search of bones. Classic Kaddu.
Bhagyashree, just waking up (with very smudged kajal that triggers an “is that a ghost?” moment), is immediately greeted with sarcasm and finger-pointing from the society aunties. The moment she tries to explain herself, they judge her for potentially partying the night before — because heaven forbid a single woman with a job might also have a life.
Bhagyashree, ever the graceful storm, scoops up Kaddu and walks off, scolding her dog like a tired mom who’s done being polite. After a quick clean-up, she’s off to her one true love — work. But peace? Still not on the menu.
Just as she steps out, Babita corners her about the party fund. Bhagyashree, who didn’t attend and never does, is asked to chip in anyway because “society rules.” Thankfully, Nitya steps in with logic — and an invite to that evening’s bash. Bhagyashree declines; she’s married to deadlines, not disco balls.
At work, she’s in full boss mode — pitching Taatva lipstick with a message about self-love. Enter Zoya, with the age-old “women wear makeup for men” opinion, which somehow gets unanimous agreement. Bhagyashree is visibly outnumbered but unfazed. She then asks her team to stay late for the presentation, only to pull a “fine, I’ll do it myself” when they groan about it being a holiday. Classic Type-A heroine move.
Sunny, the token hopeful colleague, tries to convince her to relax and later begs her to hire his friend. Bhagyashree shuts that down with the kind of firm ‘no’ that HR dreams of. No favors, no nepotism — we stan.
Later, as mellow radio music plays and the world celebrates, Bhagyashree is still at her desk. She spots the peon working late and shoos her home like a true queen who’s tough and considerate. Just when she’s about to return to her grind, Naveen drops in like a party fairy godbro and drags her out.
At the party, she meets Raman — a guy who clearly thinks he’s a walking Shaadi.com profile. He dives straight into the “I’m ready for marriage” spiel without asking if she’s even here for that. Spoiler: she’s not. Bhagyashree politely declines, but Raman takes it like a toddler denied candy — throws a tantrum and storms off.
Nitya defends this walking red flag, blaming his bad behavior on Bhagyashree’s rejection. Ma’am, no. A bruised ego doesn’t excuse being a jerk. Nitya then asks the dreaded question every single woman hears at least twice a year: “How long will you stay single?” Bhagyashree responds like a champ — with dignity and a reality check.
Back at home, Bhagyashree finds Kaddu missing. She frantically searches until she finds her in the arms of a stranger — Rishabh. He gives his wallet to a beggar in a moment of quiet generosity, winning the karma lottery. Just as Bhagyashree thanks him, the lights go out, leaving his face a mystery. Dramaaa.
Inspired by his kindness, Bhagyashree decides to pay it forward and calls Sunny to tell him his friend is hired. Sunny, in turn, calls Rishabh — surprise! He’s the same guy.
The episode closes on a sweet note — Bhagyashree gets a call from her dad after ages, and her excitement is palpable.
Precap Tease:
Daddy dearest wants Bhagyashree and her husband to attend a wedding. Problem? She doesn’t have one. Solution? Asking the mystery man Rishabh to pretend to be her hubby. Yup, we’re stepping into classic romcom territory — fake marriage incoming!
Final Thoughts:
The episode blends slice-of-life sass with emotional beats and a hint of romantic mystery. Bhagyashree is a no-nonsense, work-obsessed, slightly grumpy lead, and honestly, we love her for it. The episode juggles societal expectations, workplace dynamics, and a dash of fate with enough light roast to keep things fun. Kaddu the dog deserves a spin-off.
