In today’s episode of *Bhagya Lakshmi*, the drama unfolds as Anushka approaches Ayush with a bright smile, announcing her intention to take him to Shalu. Excited by the prospect, Ayush eagerly agrees to accompany her, his spirits lifted at the thought of seeing Shalu. Meanwhile, Malishka is engaged in a tense conversation with her mother, Kiran. She expresses her frustration, stating that Rishi has changed significantly, and Kiran, sensing her daughter’s distress, urges her to take action to regain control of the situation.
As the tension escalates, Malishka receives a call from Balwinder, which only serves to aggravate her further. She angrily dismisses his attempts to reach her, feeling overwhelmed by his persistent interest. Balwinder, on the other hand, is speaking to a friend about Shalu’s discovery of the baby’s truth, which he believes could unravel Malishka’s plans. He attempts to call Malishka again, but she ignores him, shouting in frustration at his relentless pursuit. Balwinder, feeling slighted, declares that he will not involve himself this time and suggests that it might be beneficial for Malishka to be exposed for her deceitful actions.
Meanwhile, Rishi is searching for Lakshmi, unaware that she is lying unconscious, a victim of the chaos surrounding them. In another part of the house, Anushka tries to charm Ayush, but he remains focused on his desire to find Shalu. He firmly tells Anushka not to touch him, expressing his loyalty to Shalu and his disinterest in any other girl. Anushka, puzzled by his rejection, questions why she can’t touch him, but Ayush is resolute, calling out for Shalu and insisting that he doesn’t want distractions.
As the plot thickens, Balwinder tells his friend about his intentions to head to Manali, but he quickly realizes that he cannot leave just yet. He worries that if Lakshmi learns the truth about him, he may lose her forever. Determined to prove his worth, he cancels his plans to Manali and instead decides to focus on his scheme to convince everyone that Malishka is carrying Rishi’s child. With renewed determination, he heads to the Oberoi house, plotting his next move.
Back at the Oberoi residence, Lakshmi regains consciousness and is immediately flooded with memories of Anushka and Neil. Driven by concern, she rushes to find Ayush. In the meantime, Anushka tries to get closer to Ayush, but he remains fixated on Shalu, pushing Anushka away and leaving the room in search of his friend.
In another corner of the house, Harleen is searching for Karishma, but Neelam informs her that Karishma is not around. Harleen expresses her desire to visit the temple, and Neelam offers to accompany her, though she also suggests that Harleen should attend to their guests instead. Just then, a courier arrives with important reports, and Anushka seizes the opportunity to embrace Ayush, asking him how he feels. However, Ayush remains unresponsive, and Anushka attempts to playfully fool him, but he is lost in thoughts of Shalu.
As the courier asks for Lakshmi, Neelam steps in, offering to take the reports and deliver them to Lakshmi herself. Ayush, still grappling with his feelings, sees Anushka and pushes her away, demanding to know who she is. Anushka struggles to keep him from leaving, but Ayush is determined and exits the scene, leaving Anushka in disbelief that her plans have not worked on him.
Neelam, curious about the contents of the reports, questions the courier about their importance. The courier, realizing the urgency, agrees to hand over the papers to Neelam, who signs for them. Meanwhile, Balwinder, caught up in his own thoughts, stops his car to discuss his conflicts with his friend, contemplating how to maneuver through the tangled web of relationships.
In the corridor, Neil spots Anushka and is perplexed by her presence. However, he is soon intercepted by Harleen and Karishma, who confront him about his unauthorized entry into the private area of the house. Neil tries to explain that it was a mistake, but Harleen firmly instructs him to leave. Karishma, suspicious and probing, interrogates him further, prompting Neil to apologize profusely.
As the episode draws to a close, Lakshmi continues her search for Shalu and Ayush, while Neelam examines the reports, setting the stage for the unfolding drama.
