Gauri holds the ghungroo, understanding her destiny. Vihaan and his brothers desperately search for the shadow world entrance but fail. Sarda guides them to a mysterious well, warning of greater dangers ahead while inspiring them with the tale of Mahisasur. The family unites in prayer for Vihaan and Gauri.
As Gauri dances, the ghungroo’s chimes crack the barrier between worlds. The demon advances while Vihaan leaps into the well. A fierce wind threatens the sacred flame, but Gauri’s relentless dance shatters the seal. Vihaan emerges in the shadow realm as Gauri prepares to confront the demon.
The demon, drawn by sound, stalks Gauri. She realizes his blindness and uses the ghungroo to mislead him, injuring herself in the struggle. Overwhelmed by his shrieks, she collapses. Meanwhile, Sia urges the family to hold off Kamini’s attack, buying time for Gauri to relight the diya.
Just as the demon raises his axe, Vihaan intervenes. Gauri, moved by his sacrifice, shares her bleeding hands—proof of her ordeal. Vihaan shields her in a locked room, his embrace offering solace. He vows to return them home, their bond stronger amidst the chaos.
Precap: Gauri experiences a panic attack, and Vihaan rushes to support her. As Gauri finds comfort in his embrace, she realizes she is falling in love with him, unaware that Vihaan has transformed into Davansh.
