The episode begins with **Sunita waking Jhanak** and inquiring about Arshi’s family. Jhanak mentions that Sunita had promised to inform them, but Sunita lies, claiming she never said that. Sunita questions Jhanak about Arshi’s husband and discloses that Arshi has given birth, but the baby is in **critical condition**. When Jhanak asks why Sunita hasn’t informed Arshi’s family yet, Sunita shifts the blame, saying it’s Jhanak’s fault.
Meanwhile, **Anjana** asks Bablu whether Arshi is okay. Tanuja enters, requesting tea from Anjana, who encourages Bablu to let Tanuja make it herself. Tanuja sarcastically suggests she can’t go back to the kitchen. As Shubhankar joins them asking for tea, Tanuja highlights Bablu’s taunts. Anjana chimes in, mentioning how Tanuja and Shubhankar are raising Laal and Bipasha.
Laal and Bipasha arrive, and Tanuja shares Anjana’s comment. Anjana clarifies she has no regrets, asserting that Aniruddh treated her like a mother instead of Laal. Bablu expresses shame over Laal being his son, while Shubhankar notes that requesting tea shouldn’t lead to conflict. Bablu insists that Tanuja should prepare tea, stating that it’s a new era where Anjana won’t be treated as a servant. Shubhankar supports this by telling Anjana to stop working.
**Mrinalini** joins the conversation, questioning if only Shubhankar deserves rest. She asserts that Choton will not make mistakes like Shubhankar. When Choton arrives, Mrinalini assures him she can handle everything. Bipasha claims she will make tea since Shubhankar suggested it but won’t cater to everyone. Anjana counters by stating she made tea for all, and Mrinalini insists they will divide household chores among the three daughters-in-law, with a call for Bipasha’s assistance.
Jhanak, concerned, asks where **Arshi and the baby** are. Sunita informs her that Arshi is in the operating room and warns Jhanak about the consequences if anything happens. Jhanak declares she wants to meet them, but Sunita refuses. Determined, Jhanak vows to prove that Sunita is lying and leaves.
Jhanak calls **Aniruddh**, informing him that Arshi’s delivery has occurred, and the baby is in critical condition. Aniruddh promises to get to the hospital as quickly as possible and shares the news with the family. Everyone departs except for Anjana and Mrinalini.
Meanwhile, **Anindo** approaches Jimli for business assistance, which she agrees to, sensing something off and reaching for water. He asks her to wait in the waiting room while he meets a client. Raju takes Jimli to the waiting room, and Anindo brings his client in. Raju whispers something to Anindo, who abruptly tells Jimli that she must go to Delhi, leaving the client waiting.
**Lalon** reassures Apu about the police’s arrival. Two men arrive claiming to be customers, but soon reveal themselves as police officers and arrest Anindo. Jimli cries out for help, pleading for the officer to save her from Anindo, who identifies her as his wife. The police take Anindo away, and Jimli embraces Lalon, apologizing amidst her tears.
Back at the hospital, Jhanak questions a nurse about Arshi’s baby. The nurse replies that the baby is missing from the nursery, confirming Jhanak’s suspicions about Sunita. As she presses for answers, a patient’s husband appears, thanking Sunita rather than the doctor, which raises Jhanak’s suspicions further.
The episode concludes with tension building over the implications of Sunita’s lies, culminating in the **precap** where she shockingly tells Aniruddh that his baby is no more, while Jhanak expresses her frustration at being kept in the dark, prompting Srishti to suggest Jhanak might be overwhelmed with worry.
