The episode opens with a bustling atmosphere as Neelu instructs Rishi not to move, clearly engaged in the preparations for the wedding. Rishi, feeling increasingly frustrated, asks how much longer this will take, expressing his weariness with the makeup process. Putul, nearby, chimes in, sharing her own experience of Bengali marriages and how she endured similar preparations. Rishi can’t help but laugh at the memory, but he quickly adds that he doesn’t want to look like a clown or “Joker” on his big day. Neelu, trying to maintain order amidst the chaos, urges him to be patient, reminding him that the auspicious time for the ceremony is approaching.
Just then, Dadabhai enters, inquiring about Rishi’s readiness. He stresses the urgency of the situation, mentioning that they are receiving calls from Aditi’s family, and the wedding cannot be delayed. Neelu, realizing she hasn’t finished getting ready herself, excuses herself and instructs Phool to bring a Topor (a traditional Bengali headpiece) for Rishi. Initially, Phool hesitates, suggesting that Neelu delegate the task to someone else. Neelu scolds her for refusing to help, leading Phool to reluctantly agree to complete the task.
After some time, Phool arrives at Rishi’s room with the Topor in hand. Rishi, curious, asks if Neelu sent her to deliver it. Phool nods and hands over the Topor, completing one more step in the preparations.
Meanwhile, at Aditi’s house, her friends are buzzing with excitement, eagerly asking when the Baraat (wedding procession) will arrive. Aditi, caught up in her own thoughts, admits she doesn’t have any updates from Rishi, leading her friend to wonder if Rishi is keeping her in the dark. Aditi brushes it off, insisting that Rishi is just busy. Aniruddh, another family member, inquires about Mrinalini’s absence, to which Choton replies that she couldn’t make it but reassures Aniruddh that he will handle everything.
As the preparations continue, Nutan arrives in Kolkata with Parashar and Prakash. She remarks on how much has changed since she last visited. Parashar suggests they head to the place he has arranged for their stay, but Nutan expresses concern about Jhanak, feeling an ominous sense that something bad might happen to her. Parashar tries to comfort her, urging her not to worry.
Back at Aditi’s house, she is enjoying a lighthearted moment with her friends, taking selfies and capturing the joy of the occasion. Madhu, one of her friends, snaps a particularly flattering photo and declares that she will send it to Rishi. The group discusses their plans for a post-wedding party with Rishi, and Madhu playfully asks Aditi about her honeymoon destination and what surprises Rishi has planned. Aditi beams as she reveals they will be going to Europe, prompting Madhu to tease her about how she blushes when talking about it. Aditi, feeling overwhelmed by the attention, playfully complains that her friends are irritating her, but Madhu reassures her that no one will bother her anymore.
However, the mood shifts when Krishnendu calls Aditi, reminding her that she is about to get married in just a few minutes. Aditi, curious, asks him for his name, but he dismisses the question, stating that it doesn’t matter and that he is merely a well-wisher. Sensing something off, Aditi accuses him of trying to ruin her relationship with Rishi, interpreting his vague remarks as nonsense. Krishnendu, unfazed, tells her to wait and sends her some photos, instructing her to check them immediately.
As the families gather, Rishi’s family arrives at Aditi’s house, where they are warmly welcomed by Aditi’s family. Arshi, a member of Aditi’s family, greets Rishi with enthusiasm, and Neelu’s husband compliments Rishi, saying he looks like a hero. Neelu agrees, and even Phool thinks that Rishi indeed looks handsome, adding to the celebratory atmosphere. However, the mood takes a turn when Aditi starts looking at the photos that Krishnendu sent her, her expression shifting from excitement to concern.
