The episode opens with a dramatic scene as Gauri pulls Vihaan from the depths of a well, just as Kamini’s idol begins to glow ominously. The glow captivates everyone present, leaving them in a state of shock and disbelief. Gauri urgently informs Vihaan that Kamini will awaken within the next hour, coinciding with the completion of the blood moon. This revelation sends a ripple of fear through the group, intensifying the urgency of their situation.
Vihaan, still reeling from the events, clutches Gauri tightly, seeking comfort in her presence. Pratham Vanshi steps forward, his voice steady yet foreboding, announcing that Kamini is indeed coming, and with her arrival, a fierce battle between good and evil is imminent. Sarda, visibly concerned, questions Pratham Vanshi about their strategy to combat Kamini’s impending threat. He responds with determination, mentioning the Rishwdanush, a powerful weapon that could turn the tide in their favor.
As the tension mounts, Gauri confronts Vihaan, expressing her dismay over his earlier decision to attack the murti. She fears that if anything goes awry, she could lose him forever. Vihaan, undeterred, insists that he is prepared to sacrifice his life if necessary. Gauri, overwhelmed by his reckless bravery, slaps him in frustration, her heart aching at the thought of losing him.
Veena, Gauri’s mother, steps in to express her gratitude, acknowledging that Gauri has saved Vihaan’s life. However, Gauri remains troubled, revealing that time is running out and they have little chance of defeating Kamini. The family rallies together, arming themselves with weapons, united in their resolve to confront the looming threat.
Meanwhile, Harsh learns from Sia that only Rishwa can successfully fight Kamini, but to do so, they need the sab mani, a crucial element for their plan. Sia emphasizes the urgency of their quest, explaining that tonight is the red blood moon night, a time when Rishwa’s power will be at its peak. Gauri feels a surge of hope seeing everyone come together to fight Kamini, but Veena warns her that Kamini’s greatest strength lies in her cunning.
Dadi reassures Gauri, reminding her that their unity is their true power, while Rashmi recalls their previous encounters with Kamini, noting that despite their victories, she always seems to return. Mahesh, filled with determination, promises that this time they will ensure Kamini is defeated for good.
Suddenly, Gauri hears a mysterious voice calling her name—“Rishwa.” She turns to see a bow and arrow appearing behind a gate that slowly swings open, revealing the legendary Dhanush. Veena explains to Gauri that this is the Rivavanshi’s Dhanush, a weapon only Rishwa can wield to vanquish Kamini.
Arjun steps forward, confident that he can lift the Dhanush. He approaches it, but his first attempt fails. Undeterred, he tries again, only to be met with the same result. Mahesh then takes his turn, but he too is unable to lift the powerful weapon. Finally, Vihaan steps up, determined to prove himself, but he too fails, expressing his exhaustion and weakness.
Sia, meanwhile, prays fervently for the sab mani, while the group grows increasingly anxious. Sandhya points out that all the men have failed to lift the Dhanush, but Sarda interjects, stating that only one woman can succeed where they have failed. She emphasizes that only Rishwa, blessed by Devi Maa, possesses the strength required to wield the Dhanush.
Gauri reflects on what she has heard about Rishwa and the blessings she has received. Arjun encourages her to try, but Gauri hesitates, feeling weak and uncertain. Vihaan, supportive as ever, urges her to take the chance, reminding her that Kamini’s magic has never worked on her and that she possesses the magical ring.
With newfound determination, Gauri steps forward to attempt to lift the Dhanush. As she approaches, the tension in the air thickens, and the idol of Kamini begins to awaken slowly, sending shivers down everyone’s spines. Harsh and Sia prepare to retrieve the mani, but they realize they must wait a moment longer, as the time has not yet come.
Gauri greets the Dhanush with reverence and makes her attempt, but she, too, finds herself unable to lift it. In a moment of desperation, Vihaan closes the door, declaring that this battle is his alone and insisting that no one should interfere. He is determined to face Kamini head-on, ready to protect those he loves.
As the episode draws to a close, the stage is set for an epic confrontation. The stakes are higher than ever, and the family stands on the brink of a battle that will test their strength and resolve.
**Precap:** In a shocking twist, Vihaan is seen marrying another woman, completely forgetting Gauri and the bond they once shared.
