The episode begins with Aman expressing his concern to Abhay about the mysterious disappearance of Gini. Abhay, visibly distressed, assures Aman that he genuinely has no knowledge of Gini’s whereabouts. Aman then turns to Raghav, seeking answers, but Raghav similarly claims ignorance. Gaurav, caught in the tension, wonders aloud about Gini’s sudden absence, while Anjali interjects with a shocking revelation: she believes Gini has been kidnapped. The room falls silent as everyone processes this alarming news, grappling with the implications of such a crime and the identity of the potential kidnappers.
In a determined effort to locate Gini, Anjali, Pankaj, and a police team arrive at a location where they begin their inquiries. Inspector Pankaj takes charge, informing the local residents about the kidnapping incident. He explains that two cars were involved and urges anyone with information to come forward. Anjali echoes this plea, emphasizing the importance of community support in such dire situations. Pankaj appeals to the residents’ sense of civic duty, urging them to assist the investigation.
As the investigation unfolds, one man steps forward, claiming to have witnessed the incident. He describes seeing two cars and provides the number of one of them. He further mentions that a woman clad in a purple saree was taken. Pankaj quickly contacts Salim, instructing him to trace the car’s registration and uncover its owner. Salim acknowledges the task and agrees to assist. Another local shares that he recognized one of the kidnappers, a man named Babu, but requests anonymity for fear of retaliation. Pankaj confirms that Babu is a known criminal and asks for his address, realizing this could be a crucial lead.
Anjali insists to Pankaj that they must act swiftly to reach Babu’s residence, as time is of the essence, especially with the impending court hearing for Gini.
Meanwhile, Aman continues to press Abhay for information about Gini’s kidnapping, but Abhay maintains his innocence. Aman expresses frustration, noting that their family often finds itself under suspicion during crises. Raghav interjects, asserting that they have no ties to the kidnapping and suggesting that they might have enemies who could be responsible. Mehek adds to the tension by stating that the Rajputs are the only ones who harbor animosity toward Gini and Anjali. Raghav warns Mehek to choose her words wisely, while she retorts that Anjali herself accused them of being involved in the kidnapping. Both Raghav and Abhay vehemently deny any involvement.
Pankaj, Anjali, and the police team arrive at Babu’s neighborhood and begin their search for his house. The adults remain tight-lipped, but a child points them toward Babu’s residence. The police surround the house, and Pankaj forcefully breaks down the door. Inside, they find Babu drinking. As Pankaj draws his weapon, Babu reacts violently and fires at him. Anjali, fueled by rage and desperation, confronts Babu, attacking him and accusing him of making a grave mistake by kidnapping her sister. Pankaj reprimands Babu for firing at law enforcement, and the police successfully apprehend him, taking him away in a police vehicle.
In a moment of introspection, Aman takes Raghav to the idol of Maata Rani, seeking a vow of honesty. He expresses his frustration over being drawn into a case that involves Gini without prior knowledge. He implores Raghav to swear on the goddess that he knows nothing about Gini’s situation. Raghav solemnly swears that he is uninformed about the kidnapping. Aman points out that the media is speculating about their involvement, but Raghav reiterates their innocence, emphasizing that they are clueless about the identity of the actual perpetrators.
At the police station, Babu, now detained, pleads with Pankaj not to subject him to violence. Pankaj, however, remains resolute, stating that while he does not typically resort to physical punishment, Babu’s actions have consequences. He insists that Babu must confess, assuring him that Anjali will ensure he faces justice. Anjali steps forward, brandishing a police stick, and demands that Babu reveal who hired him and the location of Gini. Despite her intimidation tactics, Babu maintains that he knows nothing. In a moment of desperation, Anjali points a revolver at him, warning him of the dire consequences if he continues to lie. Under pressure, Babu admits that he was contracted to kidnap Gini for a sum of one crore rupees and reveals that he dropped her off at a specified location given by the person who hired him.
Anjali shows Babu photographs of Raghav, Chandrabhan, Abhay, and Yuvraj, inquiring if any of them were his contacts. Babu denies any involvement from them. Pankaj then presents Aman’s photo, but Babu shakes his head, insisting that Aman was not involved either. When pressed about where he left Gini, Babu states that it was in Old Delhi, near Chandni Chowk. Pankaj promptly orders his team to secure Babu in lockup, determined to follow this new lead.
**Precap:** In a moment of tenderness, Aman presents Anjali with a rose, but the scene quickly turns chaotic when an assailant attempts to attack her. Aman instinctively shields her from the knife, engaging in a fierce struggle with the attacker, showcasing his commitment to protecting Anjali amidst the escalating danger.
