Jai Sharma gets a shock as he reveals secret to Suni in Emmerdale

SUNI Sharma has been living in the Dales, blissfully unaware of his family’s heavy history.

But his “cousin” Jai Sharma has a shocking revelation for him next week in Emmerdale and it’s set to be life-changing.

The hunk portrayed by Brahmdeo Shannon Ramana rocked up the ITV Dales ahead of Jai’s wedding in July, 2023, and immediately settled into the eponymous village for a brand new life.

He not only found himself a job at The Hide in recent scenes of the Yorkshire-based drama, he also struck up a romance with repenting villain Nicky Milligan.

However, as regular viewers of the long-running show will remember, Suni’s arrival in Emmerdale was anything but pure bliss as Jai’s wedding was tainted by the sudden death of his father Rishi Sharma.

Before his big day, Jai (played by Chris Bisson) found out he had been adopted, which Rishi kept a secret from him for four decades.

He was eventually told the truth by both Rishi and his mother Georgia.

Jai learned he was Rishi’s biological nephew as he was born from a tryst his mother had had with Rishi’s brother, which meant Suni is his half-brother.

Following Rishi’s death, Jai decided against telling Suni the truth about his parentage but he finally drops the bombshell on him next week.

Coming up, Suni struggles to process the truth about Jai’s admission that they are brothers. 

Laurel (Charlotte Bellamy) comforts Jai, who’s beating himself up.

He’s left feeling uneasy when Laurel recommends he gives Suni time to come to terms with everything.

An anxious Jai’s relieved when Suni enters, ready to talk but both men are in for quite the shock in later scenes.

What will they find out?

What’s in store for the Sharma family?

Rishi fell down the stairs as he was getting ready to see Jai walk down the aisle with his new bride Laurel Thomas in an attempt to mend their broken relationship.

Due to his sudden death and with the knowledge that not everything is ever as it seems in the village, viewers have suspected something sinister could be revealed.

Many of them have theorised Rishi was killed off by a new villain roaming the Dales.

But is there really something to be worried about?

Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7.30pm on ITV.
