The latest episode of *Bhagya Lakshmi* unfolds with heightened tension as Lakshmi confronts Malishka regarding her alleged pregnancy. The episode begins with Malishka adamantly denying the accusations put forth by Lakshmi and Shalu, asserting that all claims against her are fabrications. In response to Malishka’s defiance, Lakshmi prepares to counter her assertions with compelling evidence.
Equipped with pregnancy reports that suggest Balwinder is the father of Malishka’s child, Lakshmi approaches the situation with confidence. She presents these documents to Neelam, hoping that the undeniable proof will compel her to take decisive action against Malishka.
Neelam’s reaction to the reports is one of shock, as she processes the gravity of the situation. Just as it appears that Lakshmi’s hopes may be realized, a dramatic twist occurs: the reports mysteriously undergo alterations. With this sudden change, Malishka is once again spared from the consequences of her actions.
Lakshmi expresses her conviction that Malishka has manipulated their emotions and trust, vowing to expose her deceit. In a moment of theatrics, Malishka pleads with Lakshmi not to cross boundaries, claiming that any harm that befalls her will be the responsibility of Lakshmi and Shalu. She asserts that the Oberoi family is her own and that she would never betray them. Lakshmi, however, dismisses Malishka’s dramatics, reiterating her stance that the truth must prevail.
As the confrontation escalates, Lakshmi emphasizes that she possesses irrefutable evidence to support her claims. She loudly declares that Balwinder is the true father of Malishka’s child, while Malishka has wrongfully implicated Rishi. Lakshmi recalls the DNA test she conducted using Rishi’s blood sample, apologizing for having done so without his knowledge, as her intention was to clear his name.
Malishka responds by asserting her family’s unwavering trust in her, suggesting that they would not seek to verify the reports. In a surprising turn, Neelam expresses her desire to examine the reports herself, cautioning Lakshmi that if she is proven wrong, there will be severe repercussions. Lakshmi maintains her innocence, insisting that she is not lying. As Neelam reviews the DNA test results, her expression shifts to one of shock, indicating that the situation is far from resolved.
Rishi, displaying unwavering trust in Lakshmi, states that he does not need to verify the reports, choosing instead to stand by her side. Ayush and Shalu share in the moment of relief as they witness Rishi’s support. Harleen and Aanchal also examine the reports, and Rano expresses her desire to see the evidence. The room falls silent as all eyes turn to Malishka, with Rano questioning Lakshmi about the contents of the reports. Lakshmi insists that the truth is evident within them.
Neelam then confronts Malishka, questioning her silence in the face of such serious accusations. She chastises Lakshmi, revealing that the reports indicate Rishi as the father of the baby. This revelation leaves Lakshmi and Shalu in disbelief, as their efforts to expose Malishka seem to have backfired. Shalu asserts that she has seen the original reports, while Lakshmi continues to assert the truth, albeit to no avail. Neelam, dismissing Lakshmi’s claims, insists that she will not entertain baseless accusations any longer.
Malishka seizes the opportunity to manipulate the situation further, urging Neelam to disregard the past and to ensure that Lakshmi faces consequences for her alleged slander. Kiran supports Malishka, further intensifying the conflict. Shalu engages in a heated argument with Kiran, but Karishma intervenes, reprimanding Shalu for her outburst.
In a private moment, Kiran questions Malishka about the altered reports. Malishka smugly reveals that she outsmarted Lakshmi and Shalu, disclosing that she had enlisted Shanaya’s help to switch the reports. Rishi attempts to diffuse the situation by urging Neelam not to scold Lakshmi, while Ayush rises to defend her as well.
Neelam, overwhelmed with anger, directs her fury at Lakshmi and Shalu, while Kiran expresses her pride in Malishka’s cunning. The family dynamics continue to unravel as Neelam apologizes to the guests present, feeling humiliated by Lakshmi’s actions. She reprimands Lakshmi harshly, prompting Rano to suggest that Lakshmi and Shalu accompany her home, feeling insulted by the events that have transpired.
Lakshmi pleads with Rano not to escalate the situation further, while Rishi attempts to calm Rano’s anger. Rano expresses disbelief that Balwinder could father Malishka’s child, prompting Lakshmi and Shalu to implore her to trust them and to listen to their reasoning. Lakshmi acknowledges her previous mistakes and asserts the need to gather more evidence to support their claims. She requests that Rano allow her to remain in the Oberoi mansion, but Rano, visibly upset, ultimately decides to leave.
The episode concludes with a sense of unresolved tension, leaving viewers eager to see how the battle for truth and justice will unfold in the episodes to come.
