The episode begins with Neil lost in thought, reminiscing about the moments he shared with Teju. His memories are tinged with sadness, as he reflects on their time together, unaware of the turmoil brewing around them. Meanwhile, Teju is shown sitting alone, tears streaming down her face as she grapples with her emotions. Neil recalls a conversation between Rituraj and Teju, feeling a surge of regret and disbelief at how he could have overlooked the signs of distress right in front of him. It dawns on him that he has made a grave mistake, one that weighs heavily on his conscience.
On the other hand, Rituraj is seen drowning his sorrows in alcohol, haunted by Teju’s words. In a fit of anger, he shatters a bottle, expressing his frustration and helplessness. Teju, in a moment of despair, gazes at an idol of Lord Shiva, questioning why she is being tested in such a harsh manner. Her comment reflects her inner turmoil and the challenges she faces in her current situation.
Meanwhile, Mukta approaches Omi, seeking confirmation on whether they have gathered enough items for their visit. Omi replies affirmatively, adding that they need to take these things to Neil’s house. Satish, however, is critical of the Chavan family’s intentions, pointing out that they are considering visiting Neil’s house despite the turmoil surrounding his daughter’s life. He expresses concern that such a visit might be perceived as disrespectful to Neil, emphasizing that he cannot remain in a place where respect is lacking. With a firm resolve, Satish declares that he will leave the house with his family if they proceed with the visit.
Sonali, taken aback by Satish’s decision, questions how he can take such a drastic step. Deepali, siding with Satish, supports his stance, reinforcing the notion that they should not go. Lakshmi, however, argues passionately, reminding everyone that Teju is the eldest daughter of the family and deserves their support. In a moment of tension, Satish turns to Lakshmi and asks if she would be willing to go to Neil’s house herself. Lakshmi responds that it would be Mukta who should go, not her. Mukta, however, insists that Lakshmi should be the one to take the lead. Satish, frustrated, tells Omi that he doesn’t care who goes, but he himself will not be part of it.
Juhi then interjects, stating that even if Satish and Deepali choose not to go, she will make her way to the Pradhan family. Deepali reacts strongly to this declaration, sensing the potential for further conflict.
As the scene shifts, Teju comes downstairs to join the Pradhan family for breakfast. Neil prepares to leave for the hospital, citing work commitments. Teju takes a seat next to Manjari, who, upon noticing Teju’s presence, quickly vacates the spot, clearly uncomfortable. Amruta tries to lighten the mood by inviting Leena to join them, but Leena responds sarcastically, suggesting that Amruta has now assumed the role of the elder in the house. Omi questions Leena’s behavior, reminding her of the rule she established that all family members should dine together. Leena retorts that the rule was meant for family, not for outsiders whom she believes have deceived her son.
In a moment of concern, Teju calls Aditi, expressing her worries about Juhi. Aditi reassures her that Juhi has returned home but reveals that she was slapped multiple times by Satish. However, Aditi shares a glimmer of hope, informing Teju that Juhi will attend the Gondhal ritual later that day. Teju, curious about why Juhi had run away from the wedding, learns from Aditi that she will come over in the evening to answer Teju’s questions directly. Teju’s determination grows as she thinks about confronting Juhi.
Later, Teju arrives at the Gondhal ritual, where Prachi introduces her to everyone as her sister-in-law. Some ladies in attendance ask if Teju is the new bride and speculate whether she is more beautiful than Juhi. Manjari quickly intervenes, asserting that Teju is indeed beautiful and that comparisons should not be made among women.
Vinod approaches Leena, finding her standing alone in a corner. He encourages her to act happy, but Leena expresses her inability to pretend. Vinod questions why she holds Juhi in such high regard, especially after she ran away from the wedding, while harboring disdain for Teju. Leena insists that Juhi was forced to flee and vows to uncover the truth behind the situation. Vinod counters her argument, reminding her that Neil married Teju following all the proper rituals. Leena responds with disdain, stating that she cannot accept Teju because she is the illegitimate child of her father. Vinod pleads with her to let go of her hatred, reminding her that Teju’s father is no longer alive. Leena, however, remains steadfast in her resentment, claiming that Teju reminds her of Mohit and the heartbreak he caused her. She expresses that while she is content with Vinod and his family, she will never accept Teju.
Vinod, feeling the weight of the tension, urges Leena to stay with the family, expressing his desire to avoid any drama. Leena, unyielding, asserts that if he wishes to avoid drama, he should allow her to remain distant from the function. With that, she walks away, leaving Vinod troubled and uncertain about how to resolve the ongoing conflict. He reflects on his inability to enjoy his son’s wedding amidst the family strife.
In the precap, it is revealed that Teju has done something wrong, leading to the entire Pradhan family being upset with her. The atmosphere is thick with tension, setting the stage for the unfolding drama.
