The episode begins with Jaydeep questioning Sakshi about Alisha’s true intentions. Sakshi asserts that Dev and Alisha are in love and that Dev has always wanted to marry her, firmly stating that Dev does not love Sakshi. Unmoved, Jaydeep argues that Alisha is not a suitable match for Dev. Sakshi counters this by reminding him that Mannat has brought humiliation to their family, thus making Mannat unsuitable for them as well. Jaydeep insists the truth is out, but Sakshi refuses to accept Mannat as part of their family, adamantly declaring that she won’t be accepting Mannat as her daughter-in-law.
Later, Sakshi expresses her annoyance to Babita about Alisha’s antics and her father’s interference. Babita remarks that Mannat has won this time thanks to Dev, but Sakshi argues that Alisha could easily win Dev’s heart if she pursued the right approach. Dev then arrives to discuss Alisha with Sakshi, who warns him that Alisha is causing trouble for him and Mannat.
Dev questions Sakshi about allowing Mannat to stay there, suggesting that Mannat has grown braver because of her. He pleads with Sakshi to accept Mannat, highlighting her respect for him and her deserving a second chance. Sakshi, however, refuses to feel pressured and suddenly experiences a panic headache. Dev urges her to calm down and she sits on the bed.
Mannat enters the room, trying to speak with Sakshi, but Babita yells at her. Undeterred, Mannat sits next to Sakshi and tries to persuade her, reminding her of the kindness she showed in their childhood. This evokes tears from Sakshi, and Dev encourages her to give Mannat a chance. Sakshi, still hurt by Mannat’s actions, tells both Dev and Mannat to stop pressuring her, leading Mannat to reassure Dev that she will eventually convince Sakshi.
Later, Jaydeep admits to Mannat that he was unaware of the whole truth and apologizes for his previous behavior toward her. Mannat expresses gratitude for the support she has received from him. Jaydeep reveals he has heard about her bravery and feels very proud. He reassures her that she will always be his best friend’s daughter and Dev’s partner. Mannat thanks him for this affirmation, expressing her happiness with Dev.
Jaydeep advises Mannat to always be open with him and to hold her head high, promising to do so as she takes his blessing.
As Mannat reflects on her father’s wise decisions, she discovers a gift from Dev in her room. Deciding to keep it, she tries on the bracelet inside, with Dev offering to help her. They share a tender moment together, and Mannat apologizes for previously rejecting his gift. While Dev is hopeful about Mannat’s return to his life, he remains aware that a greater danger lurks. He suspects that Mr. X is someone entirely different and resolves to uncover the truth.
**Precap:** Dev uncovers a conspiracy surrounding Jeet’s death, and together with Mannat, they stand united in their quest to find the true murderer.
