Black Money Love (Kara Para Ask) ~ Episode Guide

Black Money Love (Kara Para Ask) is now streaming on Netflix, but they have divided every episode into roughly three parts. Thus you will notice both regular episode numbers and Netflix episode numbers, with about 3 Netflix episodes to every 1 regular episode. I did find in one scene on Netflix was slightly different than the 'same' scene on a 'regular' episode, so they may not coincide exactly.

Note: I got bogged down in the middle of the series so this is guide incomplete. If/when I watch more, I'll add to it.
