The episode opens with Gauri in a state of urgency as she races to find her sister, Charu. Meanwhile, Vihaan is seen frantically calling Rekha, clearly concerned about the situation. Gauri arrives at a bar, a place filled with girls who are working as dancers, and the atmosphere is tense and chaotic. She tries to call Charu for help, but her attempts are thwarted as Charu’s phone is busy. Just then, Gauri stumbles upon a room where she sees Charu preparing for a dance performance.
In a heartfelt reunion, Gauri rushes to hug Charu, only to discover that Charu was brought there against her will. Determined to rescue her sister, Gauri decides they must leave immediately. However, their plans are interrupted when a guard informs Gauri that Rekha has already paid for Charu, and she is obligated to perform. The situation escalates as bouncers step in, forcibly separating Gauri and Charu and blocking the entrance to the room.
Desperate to save her sister, Gauri contacts Rekha, demanding to know why she sent Charu into such a perilous situation. Gauri expresses her willingness to pay any amount to get Charu out. However, Rekha coldly insists that Gauri must return to her in-laws, claiming that it is the only way out. Gauri protests, explaining that they face humiliation at Vihaan’s house, which only intensifies her resolve to pay whatever it takes. Rekha then offers a deal: Gauri must repay the money she borrowed from the bar owner.
Gauri returns to Vihaan, who immediately stops her in her tracks. He reminds her that she must beg for his forgiveness, which forces Gauri to fold her hands in front of him in a gesture of submission. She apologizes for any disrespect she may have shown him, admitting that his earlier criticisms were valid. Gauri pleads for money, emphasizing her urgent need. Vihaan, showing a mix of indifference and authority, instructs her to stop crying and come inside the house. He hands her five lakh rupees, instructing her to count it carefully. Grateful yet anxious, Gauri thanks him, but Vihaan reminds her that she must meet him at the upcoming puja.
Meanwhile, Harsh informs Vihaan that he noticed Gauri looking quite tense. Vihaan reassures him that she will return soon. Arjun, curious about Vihaan’s concern for Gauri, questions why he seems so eager for her return. Vihaan brushes off the inquiry, and Arjun attempts to lighten the mood by mentioning that all the Dayan (witches) are finally dead. Vihaan hints at an upcoming birthday celebration and ominously suggests that they will soon see what unfolds next.
As Gauri pays the bouncers to release Charu, they are suddenly halted when the bouncers insist on confirming with their boss that the money has been received. Unfortunately, their boss’s phone is unreachable. Thinking quickly, Gauri devises a plan and makes a run for it. She jumps into a stranger’s car, but the lady driving demands that she stop.
In another scene, Rashmi gathers Arjun, Harsh, and Vihaan to share some news. She informs them that Sandhya’s mother-in-law wants Harsh to consider marrying her niece. Harsh vehemently objects, stating that he has no interest in marriage. Rashmi encourages him to at least meet the girl before making a decision.
Back in the car, Gauri continues to evade the bouncers, reciting poetry to the lady driver in a frantic attempt to distract her. The bouncers eventually receive a message from their boss to let Gauri and Charu go. Gauri stops the car, apologizing to the lady for the trouble she caused. The lady warns Gauri that dressing like she does attracts trouble, advising her to be cautious. Gauri, feeling misunderstood, expresses her hope that no one else’s family members will have to endure such hardships. Their conversation turns into a small argument before Gauri respectfully bids farewell and leaves with Charu.
Upon returning home, Gauri finds Vihaan waiting for her. He instructs her to sign a contract, and in a moment of imagination, Gauri envisions herself returning the money she borrowed from him. However, she quickly resolves to sell her car to repay Vihaan and plans to give Rekha one lakh as well. The weight of her decision burdens her, knowing that selling her car is a significant sacrifice.
Gauri informs Rekha of her plan to sell the car and pay Vihaan, offering to give her a portion of the money. In a shocking twist, Rekha arrives with kerosene, indicating her sinister intentions.
Precap
In the upcoming scenes, Rekha takes drastic measures by burning Gauri’s car, demanding that Gauri return to her. She insists that Charu must continue to dance and that Gauri will owe her one lakh every week, setting the stage for further conflict and desperation.
