The episode begins with Mahua demanding that Ranbir explain the situation, not just regarding Chandan, but also asking about Adrija’s whereabouts. When both Ranbir and Meghla admit they haven’t seen Adrija, Mahua becomes increasingly worried about her feelings and scolds Ranbir for his actions. Attempting to calm her, Ranbir assures Mahua that Adrija must be okay, and she reluctantly gives in. However, she quickly shifts her focus to Ranbir’s decision to take Meghla away, which led to unnecessary questions and scrutiny from others. Chandan’s aunt warns Ranbir that Adrija’s disappearance could have serious consequences.
As the tension rises, Chandan encourages Ranbir to speak openly. Hesitant at first, Ranbir finally declares that he does not want to marry Adrija. Just then, Adrija walks in, eliciting gasps of shock from everyone present. Mahua, caught off guard, implores Ranbir not to joke, as the wedding is just a day away. Ranbir insists he is serious, asserting that he cannot marry a liar like Adrija, stunning everyone further. Chandan questions Ranbir’s realization about the weight of his words, but before he can clarify, Adrija attempts to defend herself. However, Mahua quickly intervenes, demanding answers from Ranbir and questioning why he dragged Meghla into this mess. Though Chandan tries to calm Mahua, she refuses to listen.
Adrija, feeling cornered, begins to blame Meghla for Ranbir’s decision. Meghla tries to explain herself, but her words fall on deaf ears. Ranbir steps in to defend Meghla and warns Adrija against blaming her, but Adrija retaliates, accusing Meghla of deceit and slaps her, shocking the entire room. Before she can strike again, Ranbir physically intervenes, warning Adrija not to cross the line and threatening to expose her.
Chandan’s aunt then demands clarity from Ranbir and questions Meghla about what caused his change of heart. In defense, Chandan firmly warns his aunt to refrain from making accusations against Meghla, which prompts her to question why he isn’t standing by Adrija in the same manner. Ranbir, exasperated, tells Chandan’s aunt to stay out of it. Mahua persists, pressing Ranbir for the truth, and he responds that Adrija needs to explain herself, leaving everyone confused.
Ranbir confronts Adrija regarding her lies about Meghla’s relationship and her supposed boyfriend, shocking Mahua and Chandan. Despite Adrija’s attempts to justify her actions, Chandan expresses his disappointment, leading to an even more furious outburst from Adrija directed at Meghla. Ranbir raises his voice, condemning Adrija for unjustly blaming Meghla, and warns her to stop.
As guests observe the drama, they make comments about the sisters’ competing interests in the same man. Mahua, desperate to salvage the situation, apologizes to Ranbir for Adrija’s dishonesty, promising that it won’t happen again. She pleads with him reconsider his decision, noting that this is the second time Adrija’s wedding has been disrupted. Ranbir responds that marrying Adrija would only lead to unhappiness for both of them. He tells Mahua that he actually wishes to marry Meghla, who has already turned down his proposal. Overcome with emotion, Adrija breaks down, prompting Mahua to comfort her. Ranbir offers an apology before deciding to leave, exchanging a meaningful glance with Meghla.
**Precap:** Meghla pleads with Chandan to reject Ranbir’s proposal, but Chandan insists that it’s up to him, Mahua, and Adrija to decide. During the Lohri celebration, Ranbir realizes Meghla is still hesitant about marrying him. Chandan then encourages Ranbir and Meghla to hold hands, igniting Adrija’s jealousy. In a fit of rage, Adrija vows to ruin Meghla’s life.
