The episode begins with Tanuja asking Srishti to bless Arshi, who receives her heartfelt blessing. Apu expresses her desire to bless Arshi as well, presenting her with a set of bangles as a gift. While she mentions that she didn’t want to give them, saying it was Lalon’s idea, Anjana advises Apu against making such comments. Feeling humiliated, Arshi voices her distress, prompting Aniruddh to take Apu aside. He gently suggests that if she doesn’t wish to give a gift, she shouldn’t, but she should keep her comments in check for today. Apu questions whether Aniruddh is upset about her remarks to his wife.
Meanwhile, Arundhati encourages Bipasha to bless Arshi, but Bipasha refuses, insisting that Arundhati had previously discouraged her from doing so. Tanuja chimes in, stating she doesn’t believe in these rituals. Anjana insists that Bipasha should bless Arshi. Bipasha then hints that perhaps Arshi thinks likes Arundhati, to which Arshi counterargues, expressing her true feelings. However, Bipasha mentally notes to bring up Arshi’s baby later.
Meanwhile, Jhanak arrives at the police station, visibly distressed. Maasi’s henchmen spot her and rush to inform Maasi. As Jhanak pleads with the officers for help, Maasi starts questioning who assisted her in escaping. A girl in Maasi’s cohort reveals that Bani was with Jhanak. Bani quickly lies, claiming she took Jhanak to room number 3 and that Jhanak locked the door from inside, so she left for her own room, shrugging off responsibility for Jhanak’s escape. Maasi, furious, reprimands her men and demands they bring Dadu to her, warning that there will be dire consequences for Bani if she discovers that Bani has betrayed her. Bani protests her innocence, but Maasi commands her men to head to the police station to find out what Jhanak is up to.
Inside the police station, the inspector probes Jhanak for details. She recounts how Dadu and Daadi sold her into a red-light area and explains that someone helped her escape. When the inspector asks for her relatives’ information, she reveals she doesn’t have anyone, leaving him skeptical. He insists she must have someone, urging her to provide a name to aid her. Finally, she decides to give him her uncle Choton’s phone number. After providing Choton’s details, the inspector calls him to confirm his identity. Shocked, Choton immediately inquires about Jhanak’s situation, asking how she ended up at the police station and if she is okay. Aniruddh overhears this conversation, concern etched on his face.
Meanwhile, Jimli vents her frustrations about Bipasha to Lalon, while Kajol remarks that Bipasha was merely murmuring. Jimli complains that Kajol wouldn’t let her reprimand Bipasha. Apu chimes in, asserting that Bipasha hasn’t yet learned her lesson. Lalon mentions he scolded Bipasha just two days ago, yet she continues to misbehave. Apu declares her intention to teach Bipasha a lesson, but Lalon advises her to remain calm for the time being. He then asks Kajol if she has brought Apu’s old doll. Upon receiving it, Apu fondly explains that Jhanak gave her the doll. She snuggles it close, tears streaming down her cheeks, and asks Lalon to help her find Jhanak.
The police inspector informs Choton that he can come to the police station if he wants to see Jhanak, revealing that she was found in a red-light area. Choton agrees to come right away and hangs up the call. When Aniruddh inquires about the conversation, Choton shares the details, expressing his urgent need to visit Jhanak. However, Arshi insists that he shouldn’t go anywhere today, as she is feeling particularly anxious. Choton tells Aniruddh to stay behind while he leaves. As Arshi questions Aniruddh about his plans, her concern is met with irritation when Aniruddh snaps at her, expressing his frustration over the situation and apologizing for losing his temper.
The episode concludes with a sense of tension and unresolved drama.
**Precap:** Choton arrives at the police station to meet Jhanak, setting the stage for emotional reunions and revelations.
