The episode begins with Roshni in a state of emotional turmoil, struggling to approach her own son, Krrish. She watches from a distance as Sayali, who has taken on the role of caretaker, dotes on the little boy with unwavering affection. Sayali has even gone so far as to take a leave from work, dedicating herself entirely to searching for Krrish and ensuring he feels loved and secure. This deepening bond between Sayali and Krrish stirs a profound sense of jealousy within Roshni, who cannot help but feel sidelined. Krrish, in turn, has begun to rely on Sayali more than on his own mother, further intensifying Roshni’s feelings of inadequacy and resentment.
As Roshni grapples with her emotions, she decides to order some toys for Krrish, hoping to rekindle their connection. However, her plans are thwarted when Renuka, her mother-in-law, discovers her intentions. Renuka vehemently advises Roshni to steer clear of what she refers to as “those filthy people,” highlighting her disapproval of Sayali’s influence. This sudden shift in Roshni’s behavior surprises Sachin, her husband, who is taken aback by the apparent change in dynamics within their family.
Meanwhile, Sayali receives a call from her friend Shikha, who is seeking assistance for an upcoming competition. Shikha requests Sayali to teach her how to make a floral garland, insisting that Sayali come to her home for a hands-on lesson. This request puts Sayali in a bit of a dilemma, as she is deeply committed to caring for Krrish.
Sachin, wanting to ensure Krrish is well looked after in Sayali’s absence, asks her to stay home instead. He expresses his desire for her to remain close, forbidding her from leaving the house. This protective stance further complicates Sayali’s situation, as she tries to balance her responsibilities towards Krrish and her friendship with Shikha.
Renuka, feeling increasingly irritated by Sachin’s decision to bring Sayali and her friend into their home without consulting her first, confronts him. Paresh, Renuka’s husband, steps in to calm her down, reminding her that they need to help Krrish, who is suffering from significant pain. He encourages her to prepare a cup of tea to soothe her nerves.
Roshni, feeling isolated and desperate for time alone with Krrish, devises a plan to clear the house of other family members. She suggests to Renuka that they visit a temple, creating an opportunity for Supriya and Krrish to be alone together at home. Renuka, initially hesitant, believes that if she insists, Supriya and Krrish will comply and leave the house.
Following Roshni’s suggestion, Renuka approaches Paresh, asking him to accompany her to the temple. Paresh, puzzled by her sudden request, inquires about her motives. Renuka explains that she wishes to perform a puja for Tejas, who has recently achieved success in his business endeavors.
As Roshni peeks through the window, she longs to catch a glimpse of Krrish. However, Krrish expresses his discomfort, refusing to keep the bandage over his eyes. Meanwhile, a bond begins to form between Sachin and Krrish, which only fuels Roshni’s jealousy further. Sachin’s efforts to befriend Krrish seem to push Roshni further away from her son.
Despite the others leaving the house for the temple, Sachin remains behind, much to Roshni’s irritation. His presence serves as a constant reminder of her struggles to connect with Krrish, leaving her feeling trapped and frustrated.
In the precap, a pivotal moment unfolds as Sayali learns that Krrish has been calling someone else “mother.” She shares this revelation with her husband, Sachin, but he initially dismisses her concerns. Just then, Krrish begins to call out for his mother, leaving everyone in shock and raising the stakes in this already complex family dynamic.
