In today’s episode, a palpable sense of fear envelops the group as they catch sight of Rahi. Preet, visibly shaken, exclaims that Rahi frightened them all. With a playful smirk, Rahi turns to Preet and teasingly asks if she is also scared. Preet, trying to regain her composure, insists that she was not sleepy, which is why she ventured out into the night.
Devika, ever the nurturing one, suggests that Rahi should sleep with them to feel more secure. However, Rahi ignores Anupama’s request to snuggle up beside her and instead chooses to share the bed with Devika, perhaps seeking comfort in the company of her friend.
As the night deepens, Anupama, Rahi, Preet, Bharti, and Devika gather together and spot a shooting star streaking across the sky. In that magical moment, they each make heartfelt wishes. Anupama, longing for connection with her late son, wishes that Samar would come to her in a dream if he has anything to convey. Preet, ambitious and driven, wishes fervently for success in her career. Devika, battling her illness, wishes not only for her own health but also for Jaya’s mother to recover. Rahi, with her innocent dreams, wishes for her aspirations to come true. As they share this moment, Anupama feels an inexplicable presence of Samar, as if he is watching over them.
However, their tranquil moment is soon interrupted by a strange voice echoing in the distance. Anupama’s mind races back to Sarita’s ominous warning about not looking around in Prakash’s house, a place shrouded in mystery. Preet, puzzled, asks who Prakash is, to which Anupama responds with a hint of fear, explaining that Prakash is known to disturb both humans and even deities, preventing anyone from finding peace. Anupama begins to wonder if her recent visit to Sarita’s village has a deeper purpose, trying to connect the dots that lead back to Samar.
Meanwhile, Hasmuk is restless, expressing anxiety about his health. He knows that if he falls ill, it could ruin the ladies’ trip, and he is determined to stay well for their sake. As the night drags on, two men lurk nearby, attempting to approach Anupama and her friends. Rahi suddenly shouts a warning, claiming that she saw two men staring at Anupama. Alarmed, Sarita inquires about the men, while Devika and Preet rush to check but find nothing. They dismiss Rahi’s concerns, suggesting that she might have been dreaming. However, Rahi stands firm, insisting that she truly saw them. Anupama, sensing the seriousness in Rahi’s voice, begins to believe her. Sarita explains the chilling truth that because of Prakash’s influence, no one dares to visit the village anymore. Anupama speculates that perhaps someone had come out of curiosity, intrigued by the gathering of so many women. She decides that it would be safer for them to sleep inside and remain vigilant.
Unbeknownst to them, the men report back to Prakash about the ladies’ presence. Prakash, with a sinister glint in his eye, orders them to keep watch and update him on any developments.
As dawn breaks, Anupama awakens with thoughts of Samar swirling in her mind. She glances over to see Rahi holding her hand, feeling grateful and thankful to God for the connection and comfort it brings her.
Later, Leela approaches Anupama, sensing her emotional turmoil. She gently asks if Anupama is missing Samar. With a heavy heart, Anupama admits that she is indeed missing him more than usual today and felt his presence strongly. Leela advises her not to dwell too much on her emotions, urging her to focus on the present. Meanwhile, Khyati learns about Samar’s absence and Anupama shares her feelings, reminding Khyati that Samar never liked to see tears in her eyes. She adds that Aryan, too, cannot bear to see Khyati upset, underscoring the bond they all share.
The next morning, Sarita gathers everyone, urging them to get ready for the day ahead. Anupama, still haunted by the voices she heard from Prakash’s house the previous night, shares her concerns with Sarita. In response, Sarita explains that Prakash possesses special powers and often prays to God during the night, which may account for the eerie sounds. Yet, Anupama cannot shake the feeling that Samar is somehow still close to her.
Meanwhile, Hasmuk, Ansh, and Paritosh decide to come together for a prayer, each missing Samar deeply. As they gather, Hasmuk learns that Paritosh and Ansh are planning to go out. Anupama calls Hasmuk, and the mention of Samar brings an emotional wave over him. Sensing her son’s spirit nearby, Anupama once again feels Samar’s presence and silently asks him for a sign that he is with her. In that moment, she hears Samar’s voice urging her to open her eyes, filling her with a mix of hope and longing.
**Precap:** In a poignant moment, Samar tells Anupama that as a mother, if she has come to the village, it must be for a purpose. Sarita then introduces Anupama to Prakash, who stares at her with an unsettling intensity, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, eager to see what will unfold next.
