Okie Brutally Shoots Ravi | EastEnders

Buckle up, EastEnders fans, because next week in Walford promises one of the most shocking and violent twists yet. The Square is set to erupt in chaos as betrayal, revenge, and tragedy intertwine — and one explosive moment leaves Ravi Gulati fighting for his life after being brutally shot by Okie.

The week begins with tensions at an all-time high. Ravi’s return to Albert Square doesn’t exactly come with open arms. Jack Branning makes his disgust clear, and Harry Mitchell is far from thrilled to see him back either. The air is thick with resentment and suspicion, and it’s not long before Ravi’s hidden crimes catch up with him.

Priya Nandra-Hart, once fiercely loyal, finally uncovers the truth about Ravi’s shady dealings. When she accuses Harry of lying to the police about Ravi’s involvement in the drugs operation, Nicola Mitchell steps in to defend her son — and drops a bombshell that Ravi was the real mastermind behind the scheme all along. The revelation sends shockwaves through the family. Feeling blindsided and betrayed, Priya lashes out at Ravi, kicking him out of her life and vowing to never forgive him.

But Ravi doesn’t give up easily. Desperate to win Priya back, he pleads his case, insisting that every dark choice he made was to protect his loved ones. Unfortunately for him, not everyone buys his story. George Knight, furious over what his family has endured — especially after everything his brother Kojo has been through — makes it clear that he’s had enough of Ravi’s chaos.

Meanwhile, Kojo is quietly breaking under the pressure. The police investigation has him cornered, and guilt eats away at him. Alone in his flat, he’s confronted by Okie, who demands to know exactly what Kojo told the authorities. Intimidated and afraid, Kojo complies, sending a message to Harry — unaware that Okie’s setting a deadly trap.

When Harry arrives, emotions explode. What begins as a tense argument spirals into a violent confrontation. In the confusion, Okie pulls out a gun — but Ravi, arriving at the scene after learning Kojo was in trouble, bursts in to intervene. Chaos ensues, and in a shocking twist, Okie turns the weapon on Ravi and pulls the trigger. The gunshot echoes through Walford, sending shockwaves across the Square. Ravi collapses to the ground, bleeding and gasping for air as Kojo and Harry freeze in horror.

Within minutes, the Square is a scene of panic. Teddy Mitchell rushes to the flat after Kojo confesses what’s happened, while Nicola — already on edge and hiding secrets of her own — gets a frantic phone call that sends her racing to Harry’s side. George Knight arrives soon after and is horrified by what he finds. The man who once brought turmoil to their family now lies fighting for his life, and George must decide whether to call for help or let fate take its course.

As paramedics arrive, Ravi is rushed to the hospital in critical condition, leaving everyone questioning whether he’ll survive. Priya, shaken to her core, struggles with guilt and fear. Despite her anger, she can’t help but worry that her last words to Ravi may have been her final goodbye.

While the shooting dominates the headlines, the ripple effects are felt everywhere in Walford. George and Junior’s relationship reaches a breaking point. Distracted by the chaos surrounding Kojo and Ravi, George is blindsided when Junior reveals he’s accepted a job in Dubai — a one-way ticket out of the drama and heartbreak that’s consumed their lives. The news stuns George, who’s already dealing with their brother Kabina’s demand that Kojo return to Ghana after the drug scandal.

The Knight family fractures further when Kojo overhears George’s plan to send him away. Terrified of losing his home, Kojo panics and runs off, setting up another emotional confrontation later in the week. Junior tries to convince George that they can protect Kojo in Walford, but the damage may already be done.

Elsewhere, Nigel Bates faces one of the most nerve-wracking days of his life as he heads to court after his devastating car crash. When his wife Julie accidentally sends his lucky tie to the dry cleaners, he spirals into superstition, fearing it’s a bad omen. But their touching conversation before court reminds fans of the enduring heart that beats beneath all of Walford’s chaos.

Over at The Queen Vic, Jean Slater’s patience wears thin with Zoe’s never-ending obsession over her missing cat. Zoe’s determination to install a new security system in the pub leads to arguments and raised eyebrows. Jean’s frustration boils over, and their feud threatens to divide the Slater family once again.

Meanwhile, Vicky Fowler’s storyline takes an emotional turn. Still haunted by her attack at the hands of Joel Marshall, Vicky steps in to defend Tommy Moon from relentless bullying by Denzel Danes and Nugget Gulati. Her act of courage surprises everyone — but her emotional stability begins to crumble when Amy Mitchell later reveals that Tommy helped Joel hide after the assault. Vicky’s faith in Tommy shatters, and she retreats further into isolation.

In an attempt to cheer her up, Kathy Beale invites Vicky out for drinks, but the night takes a dark turn when Vicky witnesses a disturbing altercation between a man and a woman. The moment triggers memories of her own trauma, sending her running home in tears. It’s clear that Vicky has reached her breaking point, and her loved ones grow increasingly worried about her mental state.

By the end of the week, Walford is left in ruins — emotionally and physically. The shooting leaves Ravi in critical condition, Okie disappears into hiding, and the community reels from the violence. George struggles to hold his family together as both Junior and Kojo’s futures hang in the balance. Jean and Zoe’s feud threatens to erupt again, while Vicky faces her deepest emotional battle yet.

As the dust settles, one question looms large over Albert Square — will Ravi Gulati survive Okie’s brutal attack, or has Walford just witnessed another fatal chapter in its long history of bloodshed and betrayal?

Next week on EastEnders promises heartbreak, chaos, and shocking consequences — proving once again that no one in Walford is ever truly safe.
