The episode begins with the Ved family arriving at the wedding venue in a grand procession known as the Baraat. As they make their entrance, Stepney approaches Ganesh to inform him that the Baraat has arrived. In response, Ganesh calls for Padma, announcing that they should formally invite the groom and his family into the festivities. With great anticipation, Ved enters the wedding venue alongside his family, marking the beginning of the celebrations.
As the ceremony unfolds, Padma performs the traditional Aarti ritual for Ved, signifying blessings and welcoming him. Following this, she offers him sweets and water, inviting him further into the wedding festivities with warmth and hospitality.
Meanwhile, Raghav, Bhajan, Vaibhav, Abhay, and Yuvraj arrive at a nearby slum to check on Anjali’s condition. As they approach, they notice the vibrant decorations and lively atmosphere of a wedding taking place, leading them to wonder whose marriage it could be.
In the midst of the wedding, Aarti stands beside Ved at the Mandap, where they are about to exchange vows. At the same time, Mehek arrives at the slum and observes the decorations. She recalls that Ganesh and others mentioned they were shopping for Aarti’s wedding, leaving her curious about who this Aarti is.
The pivotal moment occurs when Ved and Aarti exchange garlands, symbolizing their commitment to each other. Meanwhile, Raghav and his group inquire with a passerby about Anjali’s whereabouts, only to be told that she is at the wedding. This revelation leaves Raghav bewildered, as he struggles to comprehend how Anjali could be getting married. Yuvraj, intrigued by the situation, suggests they investigate further.
As the festivities continue, Kali notices that Aarti has forgotten her bangles. Concerned, she decides to retrieve them and heads towards the wedding venue. Upon arriving, Kali is taken aback to see Ved as the groom, triggering a flood of memories. She recalls a traumatic incident at the Mehfil where human traffickers had intended to sell her, and panic sets in as she realizes Ved was present there. Overwhelmed with fear, Kali screams, drawing Aarti’s attention.
Aarti, noticing Kali’s distress, attempts to approach her, but Ganesh intervenes, insisting that Aarti remain at the Mandap since it is her wedding venue. Aarti pleads with Ganesh to let her go, finally reaching Kali to ask what is wrong. Kali reveals her shocking discovery about Ved, claiming that not only was he at the Mehfil, but his entire family was involved in the trafficking of women.
Determined to confront the truth, Aarti brings Kali before Ved, urging her to look closely and confirm her suspicions. Aarti expresses her unwavering love for Ved, declaring him her first and last love. However, Kali stands firm in her accusations, affirming that Ved and his family are indeed involved in trafficking. In a moment of anger and disbelief, Aarti slaps Kali, rejecting her claims.
