The episode opens with a tense atmosphere as Padma expresses her concerns to Anjali. She warns Anjali not to trust Kali’s tears and advises her to avoid attending the engagement party at the Rajput house. Anjali, however, is resolute in her mission, stating that her only goal is to find her husband’s murderer. Determined, she leaves the house with Pankaj, her steadfast ally. After they depart, Padma turns her thoughts to prayer, seeking divine protection for Anjali and Aarti’s relationship amidst the turmoil. She then picks up the phone to call Ganesh, informing him about Anjali’s intention to attend the party. Ganesh asks if she tried to dissuade her, to which Padma replies that she did not, emphasizing that Anjali is coming not as a mother but as a lawyer, and ACP Pankaj will be by her side.
Meanwhile, the scene shifts to the vibrant atmosphere of the engagement party. Sadhika takes center stage, announcing the celebration’s dual purpose: the joyous occasion of Diwali and the engagement of Ved and Aarti. She warmly welcomes Ved’s family, who are also present to partake in the festivities. As the excitement builds, Raghav prompts Aarti and Ved to exchange rings, and the couple joyfully prepares to do so. Just then, the mood shifts dramatically with the arrival of ACP Pankaj and Anjali. Pankaj immediately calls for the ceremony to be halted, leaving the Rajput family in a state of confusion and curiosity about their unexpected presence.
Gaurav, trying to maintain order, explains that security had attempted to stop Anjali, but he intervened, allowing her entry since she is considered family. Abhay, puzzled by Anjali’s intrusion, directly questions her motives for being there. Anjali firmly states that the engagement cannot proceed, prompting Aarti to ask her mother why she is trying to stop it.
Anjali explains the legal implications surrounding Ved’s case, emphasizing that until it is conclusively proven that Ved was never married to Kali, he cannot engage with Aarti. She further reveals that she has come for another critical reason. Pankaj instructs a constable to bring Ravi inside, intensifying the tension in the room. When Ravi arrives, he is met with a barrage of questions from Raghav and others regarding his presence at the party. Sadhika, feeling protective of her daughter, accuses Anjali of attempting to ruin Aarti’s life. The atmosphere grows charged as everyone questions Anjali’s intentions, but she insists they remain silent, reminding them that Ved’s case is still in court and they cannot commit a criminal offense.
Ganesh, feeling the weight of the situation, demands that Anjali leave, asserting that this is his granddaughter’s engagement. Anjali retorts that Aarti is her daughter too, which leads Ganesh to remind her of the past—pointing out that Anjali was in a vegetative state after giving birth and thus never gave Aarti anything. He claims Aarti is his daughter and granddaughter, further escalating the conflict.
Aarti and Ved, caught in the middle, plead with Anjali to leave, professing their love for one another. Ganesh praises Raghav for uniting two lovers, but Sadhika lashes out, calling Anjali a witch for jeopardizing her own daughter’s happiness. Amidst the chaos, Yuvraj, who is hiding in the crowd, is shocked to see Ravi and attempts to evade recognition. He discreetly instructs Mehek to get Anjali to leave. Mehek, feeling torn, begs Anjali to step aside, suggesting she can be there as Aarti’s mother but not in her capacity as a lawyer. Gaurav interjects, stating that Anjali will not leave, as she is a devoted advocate for the law and will always fight for justice.
As tensions rise, Pankaj makes a bold declaration that the engagement will not take place. Ganesh, unwilling to back down, insists that it will happen, warning Anjali that if it doesn’t, she will see his “dead face.” Anjali stands her ground, asserting that no threat can deter her. In a moment of emotional confrontation, Aarti calls Anjali her enemy, while Pankaj warns that if the engagement proceeds, he will arrest both Ved and Aarti for violating the law.
In a passionate outburst, Aarti accuses Anjali of prioritizing the law over her love for Ved, declaring that from this moment on, Anjali is her enemy and no longer her mother. The Rajput family, feeling the weight of the situation, demands that Anjali and the police leave. However, Anjali and Pankaj reveal their true purpose for being there: they are investigating Aman’s murder. Anjali states that Ravi was the driver involved in the accident that injured her and killed Aman, and he is present to identify the person who paid him to commit the crime 21 years ago. Raghav, concerned about the legalities, asks if they have a warrant. The ACP confirms they do, and he instructs Ravi to identify the individual who compensated him. As Ravi scans the room nervously, Yuvraj tries to conceal himself, heightening the suspense.
In the precap, Ravi informs Anjali that the person who paid him is not present at the party, leaving the investigation hanging in uncertainty. Later, Anjali approaches Gaurav, asking for the party footage to aid in her quest for justice. Meanwhile, Mehek confronts Yuvraj, questioning his activities on the terrace while the party was taking place in the hall, setting the stage for further revelations and conflicts in the unfolding drama.
