The episode begins with Neel urgently telling Anushka that they must protect the necklace at all costs, to which Anushka concurs. She then asks if his friend has arrived, and Neel confirms his arrival. He explains that his friend plans to kidnap Ayush and take him away. Neel further reveals that Shalu will be coming after him, and he has a scheme to draw Lakshmi to them by demanding money from the Oberoi family. Anushka, however, objects to Neel’s initial plan and proposes an alternative: she will stage an attack on Lakshmi, pretending to save her and risking her life in the process. This, Anushka asserts, will force the Oberoi family to bring her back into their mansion, after which they can secure a substantial amount of money. Neel praises her cleverness.
Meanwhile, Lakshmi inquires how the police inspector knows about Ayush’s alleged abduction of Anushka. The inspector explains that they received a tip from Neel. Lakshmi voices her suspicion that the events are interconnected, following the actions of Ayush and Shalu. She argues that Anushka entered the Oberoi mansion intentionally with plans to steal the necklace, and when Ayush and Shalu caught her, she managed to escape her confinement. Lakshmi insists that they must search the house for Anushka, prompting her to urge the police to begin the search. Pankaj, who is secretly Neel’s accomplice disguised as the police inspector, disagrees. Ignoring him, Neelam advises the police to search for Anushka throughout the Oberoi mansion, and everyone proceeds inside.
Elsewhere, Malishka expresses her frustration to Kiran about their plan going awry. Kiran reassures her, saying she will speak to the inspector, explaining that if he is corrupt, she can bribe him to arrest Lakshmi. Kiran then instructs Varsha to take the necklace and place it in Lakshmi’s room, to which Varsha agrees.
Shalu leads the constables in their search for Anushka, bringing them to Rishi’s room to explain what happened. Afterward, Shalu guides the officers to continue looking for Anushka.
Meanwhile, Varsha arrives at the designated room only to find the necklace missing. Alarmed, she calls Kiran to inform her that the necklace is gone.
Garimacharya unexpectedly encounters Shalu and asks to be taken to Neelam, eager to share something important. Shalu agrees to help her.
In a fit of anger, Malishka berates Kiran for the failed plan, making critical comments before storming off.
As Anushka and Neel eavesdrop on a conversation between Aanchal and Harleen, they learn that the police are searching for Anushka. Neel reassures Anushka that even if the police find her, his friend Pankaj will protect them and handle the statements. Anushka expresses that they shouldn’t need to hide at all, but Neel warns her to keep the necklace a secret from Pankaj, as he might take it if he learns about it. Anushka agrees to keep quiet.
Kiran, growing anxious, chastises Varsha for losing the necklace and worries about Garimacharya’s potential conversation with Neelam that might reveal the truth.
Pankaj tells Ayush to be prepared, sensing that they may not find Anushka in the current location.
The episode concludes at this tense juncture.
