The episode opens with Neelima intervening to stop Mishka from participating in the rituals, stating that she is not married. Lavanya quickly reminds Mishka that she is merely Chirag’s friend and not the mother of Ragini. Mishka retorts, questioning why Deepika, who is still Chirag’s wife, is allowed to perform the rituals. Deepika firmly establishes that she is Ragini’s mother, prompting Mishka to argue that she feels like a mother to Ragini too.
Amidst the tension, Ragini firmly states that her mother is Deepika, which leaves everyone stunned. Chandu reiterates Ragini’s words, causing Deepika to ask her to repeat the name, and Chirag’s anger flares. Ragini breaks down in tears due to his reaction, leading Chandni to interject and advise Chirag not to take his frustration out on Ragini.
Mishka, wanting to soothe Ragini’s tears, attempts to approach her, but Lavanya intervenes and goes to comfort her instead. Meanwhile, Deepika expresses her desire to leave with Chandu, but Omkar steps in to take care of him. Neelima advises Mishka to go home, while Janvi confides in Prithvi about her feelings of pain and neglect.
Lavanya comforts a sobbing Ragini, reminding her that Deepika is her mother. She encourages Ragini to stop crying and offers to fetch her some food. Lavanya then seeks a private conversation with Deepika, asserting that Deepika is still Chirag’s wife and urging her to remain part of the family. Lavanya emphasizes that Chirag had no genuine marriage with Mishka, detailing how he walked away from the altar to be with her.
Deepika confronts Lavanya about the lack of clarity regarding Mishka’s role and who truly is Ragini’s mother. Omkar chimes in, explaining how Chirag found Ragini crying in the temple and that she calmed when he held her. He entrusts Lavanya with food to feed Ragini before leaving to tend to Chandni.
When Lavanya presents parathas and cakes to Ragini, she rejects them initially. However, Deepika encourages her to eat, promising a flower bracelet in return. This entices Ragini, who ultimately agrees to eat for the reward.
Meanwhile, Prithvi tries to comfort Janvi, who feels increasingly invisible and overlooked by everyone around her. He reassures her that they will have the Godbharai ceremony at a later time.
As Ragini enjoys her food, she plants a kiss on her stuffed animal and demands that Lavanya penalize her father for yelling at it. Chirag insists that Deepika allow their daughter to stay with him, but Deepika counters that she has not taken Ragini from him. Chirag warns that Ragini will be hurt when the truth about her family is revealed, but Deepika asserts that Ragini holds a special place in her heart and will always be loved.
The episode concludes with heightened emotion and unresolved tension surrounding family dynamics.
