Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) is tasked with making contact with Amit, his biological father, in Emmerdale next week by an unsuspecting Suni (Brahmdeo Shannon Ramana).
The long-serving mainstay, as viewers know, discovered earlier this week from dad Rishi (Bhasker Patel) that his uncle Amit is actually his biological father, a revelation which led to a huge showdown between the two.
Rishi, however, tragically died in subsequent scenes, before Jai was able to make things right with him and tell him how much he loves him.
We’re still not over it.
The aftermath of the tragedy continues next week, starting with Jai and Laurel breaking news of Rishi’s death to the children, including Archie Breckle (Kai Assi), who is particularly upset, with Jai subsequently snapping at him, struggling to process the fact that his father is gone.
Suni, meanwhile, can’t help but feel guilty over not returning to Holdgate on the night of the wedding, with Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) reiterating that what happened to Rishi is simply not his fault.

Jai, who is still processing the fact that Suni is actually his brother and not his cousin, resolves to keep the truth about his parentage from the newcomer, but things soon become complicated.
Suni pleads with Jai to ring Amit to arrange the funeral, unaware of the big secret, but Jai ultimately becomes stressed out over the whole situation, lashing out at his secret brother.
