In the latest episode of Karthika Deepam, Deepa lies to the judge that she has one daughter with Karthik and she is raising her. Karthik informs the judge that he is raising an orphan kid.
When the judge questions the reason behind raising an orphan, Karthik alleges that Deepa is deliberately getting close to his daughter Hima. He adds that he doesn’t want this to happen and that is the reason why he is seeking divorce.
The judge says this reason is not strong enough to grant divorce. The court is adjourned for a while. Soundarya day dreams of Karthik alleging Deepa of infidelity in the court and Deepa committing the suicide unable to bear the character assassination.
Soundarya emotionally requests Karthik not to allege Deepa of infidelity adding that it will ruin the lives of Deepa and Sourya as well. Karthik asks Soundarya to refrain from certifying Deepa and emotionally blackmailing him. He declares that he will tell the truth in front of the judge. Soundarya and Anand Rao are shattered by Karthik’s decision.
Deepa meets Soundarya and asks about Karthik’s decision and loathes her ill fate. Soundarya stays helpless.
On the other hand, Monitha is extremely worried about the dire consequences of his divorce. She fears that the judge will direct Karthik to get the DNA test done once she knows the actual reason behind Karthik’s divorce petition.
