what happened in Banaras ?

Episode 3 what ?

Ayan wakes up a bit groggy after his minor injury, with his friends buzzing around him, cracking jokes about how “destiny gave him a good knock on the head.” As they’re discharged, Ayan rolls his eyes at their teasing, but they insist that maybe there’s “a sign” he needs to pay attention to. On their way out, his friends spot a poster for a famous fortune teller nearby, nudging Ayan toward a “divine consultation.”

Ayan reluctantly agrees, feigning indifference as the fortune teller—a mysterious figure with a sly smile—gazes at him. “You’re closer to your future than you realize,” the fortune teller says cryptically. “A lens and a frame... a quiet heart that captures life… you’ll know it when you see it.” Though he tries to shrug it off, the words stick with him, planting a seed of curiosity he can’t quite shake.
Just as he's about to leave, the fortune teller calls out, "Be wary, mister. The next place you go will either change your life for good or bring despair. But remember—be brave. Even destiny kneels to those who refuse to kneel before it. It’s always your point of view that shapes the outcome."

Unbeknownst to him, just a few hours later, Elena and her friends, looking for a little local adventure, come across the same fortune teller. Her friends encourage her to give it a try, and she steps forward, mildly amused. The fortune teller’s expression changes as he studies her. “A spirit with courage… and a soul touched by faith. You’ll meet someone with a fire that mirrors your own.” Though skeptical, Elena leaves with a lingering thought—something about the words seems oddly true.

The next morning, Elena and her friends visit Humayun’s Tomb, enjoying the grandeur of the site. She’s in her element, capturing shots of everything from intricate stone carvings to quiet moments with tourists, even posting a small caricature of herself and her friends on a nearby café board. As she leaves, a feeling of expectation lingers, a quiet anticipation for the unknown.

A few hours later, Ayan and his group follow the same sightseeing path, taking it easy as they explore. His friends notice the caricature at the café and jokingly point out how it “matches” the fortune teller’s vague hints. Though he plays along, brushing off the coincidence, he’s secretly intrigued by the mysterious girl in the drawing.

???: isn't it quite interesting that the intire universe want them to meet each other and also separate them .it's going to be fun !!

As evening sets in, Ayan’s and Elena’s groups gather at the bustling Delhi railway station, both on different platforms with just an 11-minute gap between their departures. The station is alive with sounds of announcements, vendors shouting, and the mixed chatter of travelers. On Platform 6, Ayan and his friends wait, passing around snacks and joking around, trying to shake off the exhaustion from the day's sightseeing. Just across on Platform 9, Elena’s group is equally animated, admiring their photos and laughing at their misadventures.

The clock ticks closer to departure. Both groups start to head toward their trains, each believing they're on the last leg to their destinations. Ayan’s cousin, Sam, is fiddling with his phone when suddenly, he gets a call. His face drops. Just as his friends ask what’s wrong, the commotion escalates. At the same time, Preeti from Elena’s group gets a similar call. Both groups stare in shock as Sam and Preeti frantically explain: their grandfather in Banaras has had a heart attack.

Panic sets in. Ayan and Elena’s friends rally around them, watching Sam and Preeti grapple with the news and their frantic calls to family. Both Sam and Preeti decide, “We have to go to Banaras, no matter what.” But in the chaos, neither group realizes that the other is having the same family crisis—and that they’ll both be bound for the same destination.

Just as the two trains are about to depart, both groups scramble to change their tickets. With hurried steps and last-minute rebookings, they manage to hop on the night train bound for Banaras. As the train rolls out of Delhi, they settle in, unaware of their parallel journey—yet somehow, destiny has nudged them closer. The suspense lingers: will their paths finally cross on the journey to Banaras?
