The episode begins with a tense atmosphere as Aniruddh arrives at the police station to meet Jhanak. The air is thick with unspoken emotions, and Jhanak, visibly frustrated, confronts him. “Why did you come again when I told you not to visit me?” she asks sharply. Aniruddh, determined to express his feelings, counters her question with one of his own: “What would you have done if you were in my place?” Jhanak, maintaining her composure, replies that she would have waited patiently for the court’s verdict. She then urges Aniruddh to return to the office, but he shakes his head, admitting, “I can’t focus on work when I’m worried about you.”
Jhanak reminds him that the police may take her to court today, and Aniruddh reassures her, saying, “The police commissioner won’t let anything happen to you.” Despite his comforting words, Jhanak asks him to stop with the reassurances. Aniruddh confesses that he can’t bear to see her in this state and feels responsible for her predicament. “I blame myself for what has happened to you,” he admits, his voice laced with guilt. Jhanak, however, explains that she only tried to help Arshi, which ultimately led to her current troubles. In an attempt to lighten the mood, Aniruddh reveals that he brought food for her, but Jhanak stubbornly declines, insisting she doesn’t want anything from him. He pleads with her to eat for his sake, showcasing his deep concern for her well-being.
As their conversation unfolds, Arshi enters the police station, her demeanor tense and confrontational. She approaches the police inspector to inquire about the status of Jhanak’s case. The inspector informs her that he is taking Jhanak to court today. Arshi, with a hint of desperation, mentions that she heard the police commissioner is involved in the case. The inspector, unfazed, replies that the commissioner cannot intervene in this matter. Concerned, Arshi asks if Jhanak can get bail, to which the inspector grimly responds that she will not be granted bail. Determined to confront Jhanak, Arshi insists on meeting her, and the inspector informs her that Aniruddh is already speaking with her.
Inside, Aniruddh expresses his love for Jhanak, declaring, “I love you so much. I don’t care what society thinks of me.” Arshi, overhearing this confession, storms in and confronts him, her voice filled with disdain. “I hate you!” she exclaims, reminding Aniruddh that she filed a case against Jhanak. Jhanak, sensing the escalating tension, urges them to discuss their personal issues elsewhere. Arshi, with a taunting tone, questions whether Jhanak is uncomfortable hearing Aniruddh’s declaration of love. She accuses Jhanak of being the root cause of all the misfortunes in her life.
The police inspector intervenes, reminding Arshi that this is a police station, not a place for shouting. Arshi, frustrated, argues that injustice is being done to her. Jhanak turns to Aniruddh, reiterating her previous request for him to leave, stating that this is precisely why she had asked him not to visit her. Aniruddh insists that Jhanak is innocent and that nothing will happen to her. Arshi, filled with determination, vows to ensure that Jhanak is punished for her actions before storming out. Aniruddh, still concerned for Jhanak, urges her to eat something before leaving.
Later, Aniruddh finds himself outside Arshi’s room, knocking on the door. Shubhankar, curious about the commotion, asks Aniruddh what happened. Aniruddh explains that he went to meet Jhanak and that Arshi showed up unexpectedly. Shubhankar scolds him for getting involved in such a complicated situation. Frustrated, Aniruddh declares that Arshi is ruining his life. Just then, Arshi opens the door, ready to confront Aniruddh. She chastises him for blaming her for his problems and reveals what he confessed to Jhanak. “I won’t live with you anymore,” she declares, her voice resolute. Aniruddh, unable to suppress his feelings any longer, insists that he cannot hide his emotions.
Mimi, observing the tension, interjects, accusing Arshi of tormenting Jhanak because she cannot bear to see Aniruddh with her. Aniruddh pleads with Arshi to understand his position. “What do you expect from me?” he asks, his frustration mounting. Arshi retaliates, calling him a cheater. Aniruddh defends himself, asserting that if he were truly a cheater, he would not have married her in the first place. He explains that he would have been fully committed to her if she had treated Jhanak with kindness instead of malice. “You crossed all limits by filing a case against her,” he tells her, his voice firm. Arshi, in a fit of anger, accuses Jhanak of ruining her life and vows that she will not allow Jhanak to take Aniruddh away from her.
Mimi speaks up, arguing that no one has made an effort to understand Jhanak’s perspective. Arshi, dismissive, asserts that Aniruddh cannot save Jhanak from her fate. “I won’t leave this house, no matter what,” she declares defiantly. Aniruddh, feeling trapped, responds, “I know you won’t give me the freedom I seek. But one day, I will leave this house.” With that, he walks away, leaving Arshi seething with anger.
A short while later, Arshi meets Siddarth in his office. Siddarth, concerned, asks her how she’s feeling. Arshi responds that she is starting to feel better but emphasizes that this comeback is crucial for her. “I can’t tolerate any more insults,” she states firmly. Siddarth encourages her to be strong, both mentally and physically, sharing that his family wants him to join their business. Curious, Arshi asks about his wife, to which Siddarth reveals that he is single. Seizing the opportunity, Arshi confides in him about her personal struggles, explaining that her husband is having an affair with her cousin. Siddarth, sympathetic, advises her to consider divorce. “I will do that,” Arshi agrees, feeling empowered by his support. Siddarth then offers her a chance to find happiness, suggesting they could be friends. Arshi, appreciating his gesture, agrees.
Meanwhile, the police take Jhanak to court, her future hanging in the balance.
As the episode concludes, the precap reveals a grim turn of events: the police escort Jhanak to jail. Lalon, concerned, tells Aniruddh that they cannot allow this to happen. In a moment of confrontation, Arshi reminds Aniruddh of her earlier warning: “I told you I won’t let you unite with Jhanak.” The tension between the characters escalates, setting the stage for dramatic developments in the episodes to come.
