Rahi excitedly tells Prem about their plans to enjoy the snow this winter, envisioning a magical experience filled with fun and laughter. Inspired by her enthusiasm, Prem decides to create a Bollywood-style setup that would bring Rahi’s dream to life. They imagine themselves dancing joyfully against a picturesque snowy backdrop, lost in the moment. Just as they are immersed in their fantasy, Sarita calls out to Rahi, prompting her to remind Prem to return to reality. Prem suddenly realizes that their delightful scene was merely a dream, and he is brought back to the present.
Meanwhile, Preet arrives at the police station, frantically searching for Ishani. Upon entering, she notices Ishani hiding her face, clearly distressed. Preet approaches the inspector with determination, insisting that Ishani is innocent and cannot possibly have done anything wrong. Ishani, echoing Preet’s sentiments, maintains her innocence. However, Preet’s insistence that she knows Ishani well raises suspicions. She demands that the police arrest the real culprit who is behind the scheme of trapping innocent girls. The constable, however, silences Preet, suggesting that her close relationship with Ishani might imply her involvement as well. Frustrated, Preet decides to call Anupama for help.
Meanwhile, Anupama is at home when she notices the lights flickering, a sign that makes her anxious. Rajini, sensing the urgency of the situation, pressures Anupama to sign some important papers, emphasizing that it is already very late and she has delayed the process long enough. Rajini’s insistence grows more intense as she pushes Anupama to sign immediately. Remembering Prem’s advice not to sign any legal documents without thoroughly reading them, Anupama decides to take her time and read the papers carefully. Rajini, however, mocks her, questioning what she would understand from the documents, given her previous struggles with reading. In a threatening tone, Rajini warns Anupama that she will not be held responsible for anything related to the chawl if she refuses to sign. Anupama, feeling cornered, decides to wait for Rahi and Prem to arrive, hoping they can help her understand the documents better. But Rajini continues to pressure her, insisting that time is of the essence.
Eventually, Anupama succumbs to the pressure and signs the papers. After signing, she asks Rajini if she has read through the documents as well. Rajini confidently claims that she has reviewed them thoroughly, trying to assure Anupama that everything is in order.
Just then, Rahi arrives and immediately questions Anupama about signing the papers without fully understanding them. Rajini grows restless at this confrontation. Rahi and Prem request Anupama to allow them to read the documents before any further steps are taken. Rajini, feeling threatened, emotionally manipulates Anupama by accusing her of not trusting her intentions. She insists that Anupama should handle the matter independently. Rahi, frustrated by Rajini’s behavior, points out that it would only take a few minutes to read the papers. Rajini counters that her lawyer is waiting in court and urgently needs the signed documents to proceed. Under immense pressure, Anupama reluctantly signs the papers again, which brings a smile to Rajini’s face.
Later, Rahi confronts Anupama about her blind trust in Rajini. Anupama tries to explain that the signatures were needed urgently and that Rahi and Prem did not have the time to review the documents together. She praises Rajini for her efforts, questioning how Rahi could doubt someone who has done so much for her. Despite Anupama’s reassurances, Rahi remains unconvinced and continues to harbor doubts about Rajini’s true intentions.
In a separate scene, Rajini is seen on a phone call, informing someone that her task is complete and it is now time to take action. Meanwhile, Anupama participates in Bharti’s ritual, during which Prerna becomes visibly emotional. Rahi offers her a handkerchief, but Prerna clarifies that she is merely a friend of Prem’s, trying to maintain her composure.
The atmosphere shifts dramatically when the police inform Anupama that Ishani has been arrested. Shocked and confused, Anupama asks for the reason behind Ishani’s arrest, only to learn that she has been implicated in a prostitution case. This revelation leaves Anupama in disbelief. As the media swarms around her, they begin to question Anupama, accusing her of running the very racket that has ensnared Ishani. The weight of the accusations falls heavily on Anupama, while Rajini pretends to support her, masking her true intentions.
**Precap:** The residents of the chawl turn against Preet and Ishani, fueled by fear and misinformation. In a moment of defiance, Anupama stands up for them, urging the community not to blame the two innocent girls. She warns them that if she can fight for their rights, she can also stand against them if necessary. Rajini watches the unfolding drama with a satisfied smile, clearly pleased with the chaos she has orchestrated.
