The episode opens with a tense atmosphere as Karishma removes Vasudha’s blanket, revealing her hiding behind the curtain, tears streaming down her face. Karishma finds amusement in Vasudha’s distress, laughing at her plight. Sarika, observing the scene, innocently asks if Vasudha is playing hide and seek. In a moment of desperation, Vasudha looks up to the heavens, questioning God about her suffering and pleading for salvation. She reflects on how Chandrika, a figure of authority in her life, could have agreed to such treatment.
Karishma, showing no signs of compassion, drags Vasudha from her hiding spot, ordering the photographer to start taking pictures. Vasudha, bewildered and hurt, confronts Karishma, questioning why she is treating her this way, especially as a fellow woman. Just as Karishma raises her hand to slap Vasudha, Devansh intervenes, surprising both Karishma and Sarika with his sudden appearance.
In a bold move, Devansh slaps Karishma, then wraps Vasudha in a blanket to shield her from further humiliation. He instructs Savitri to stay with Vasudha, displaying his protective nature. Devansh confronts Karishma, expressing his disappointment in her behavior and scolding everyone present for allowing this drama to unfold. He orders the photographer and his crew to leave, asserting that they will not partake in this exploitation any longer.
Karishma, taken aback by Devansh’s actions, questions his authority to intervene and stop the photoshoot. She defends herself by claiming that Chandrika entrusted her with this responsibility, implying that her actions were justified. Devansh counters her argument, revealing that Chandrika sent him to check on Vasudha because she sensed her discomfort with the situation. He expresses his shock at how much Karishma seems to despise Vasudha, to which Karishma indignantly replies that she has done nothing wrong.
The conversation escalates as Karishma argues that Vasudha, in her opinion, is not beautiful enough to be a brand ambassador. She questions why they wouldn’t hire a more attractive and talented model, claiming she doesn’t understand what makes Vasudha special. Devansh, finally understanding Karishma’s shallow perspective, firmly states that he has never seen anyone more beautiful than Vasudha. He emphasizes that Chandrika has made her decision, and Karishma cannot override it.
As tensions rise, Chandrika enters the scene, immediately sensing the discord. Her gaze falls on Vasudha, and she becomes visibly angry. She instructs Savitri to take Vasudha upstairs, clearly upset by the treatment Vasudha has received. Chandrika confronts Karishma, demanding to know why she would stoop so low. Sarika, in the background, nervously hopes that the confrontation does not lead to further trouble for her.
After changing her clothes, Vasudha returns, and Chandrika asks her what transpired. Vasudha recounts the entire incident, detailing the humiliation she faced at the hands of Karishma. Karishma interjects, insisting that Vasudha does not deserve the role of brand ambassador. Chandrika, however, points out that Karishma had previously shown her a different outfit, implying that Karishma’s intentions were not pure.
Karishma tries to justify her actions by claiming she did it for the company’s benefit, but Chandrika sees through her facade. She questions Karishma’s jealousy towards Vasudha, highlighting the unfairness of her treatment. Karishma, feeling cornered, accuses Devansh of comparing her to Vasudha, further escalating the conflict.
Chandrika stands firm, defending Vasudha’s upbringing and character, asserting that she knows Vasudha will not act against her principles. She chastises Karishma for her behavior, declaring that she will not tolerate any insult directed at Vasudha, whom she considers her daughter. In a decisive move, Chandrika orders Karishma to leave the house, emphasizing her loyalty to Vasudha.
Karishma, feeling wronged, protests that Vasudha receives more importance than family members, claiming that she feels sidelined and unaccepted. As she cries, attempting to garner sympathy, Chandrika remains resolute, stating that Karishma’s tears will not sway her decision.
