The episode begins with Raunak contemplating the gifts he plans to give Smita and Baa after Holi Ka Dahan. He gazes at the gift he bought for Prarthna and decides that she deserves it. Just then, Harsh arrives and informs Raunak that everyone is waiting for him downstairs. Raunak agrees to join them and heads downstairs.
Meanwhile, Vihaan is meticulously planning his next move. He instructs his henchman to eliminate Prarthna if she interferes with his plans, emphasizing that he doesn’t want her to cause any trouble. His tone is cold and calculating, revealing his determination to see his plan through.
A nurse visits Vihaan, and he hands her a substantial amount of money, instructing her to follow his orders to the letter. The nurse, understanding the gravity of the situation, agrees. Vihaan’s phone rings, and it’s Sneha. He asks her to return his phone, explaining that they have it. The nurse insists that Vihaan take his medicine, warning that his life is at risk if he doesn’t. Sneha overhears this and urges Vihaan to comply. Reluctantly, Vihaan hands the phone to the nurse, who informs Sneha that Vihaan’s condition is critical. She implores Sneha to convince Vihaan to take his medicine. Sneha, distressed by the news, begs Vihaan to take the medicine, which he does after professing his love for her and abruptly ending the call.
At the Holi celebrations, Smita warmly welcomes Ketki and Payal, setting a festive mood. Raunak spots Prarthna and, with a determined look, takes her aside to his room. He asks her to close her eyes and, with a sense of anticipation, presents her with a locket. Prarthna is taken aback by the gesture and hesitates, insisting that the locket is too expensive. Raunak, with a playful smile, assures her that it costs only Rs 2500, not Rs 2.5 lakhs, and pleads with her to accept it. Touched by his sincerity, Prarthna finally agrees.
Later, Vihaan instructs the nurse to summon Sneha, insisting that she must administer his medicine herself, or he will die. The nurse conveys this dire message to Sneha, who hurriedly agrees to come. Before leaving, Sneha confides in Prarthna, revealing that she’s going to a friend’s house and has attempted suicide. She asks Prarthna to cover for her if anyone inquires about her whereabouts. With a heavy heart, Sneha leaves.
Smita soon questions Prarthna about Sneha’s location. She calls Sneha, who nonchalantly tells her that she already informed Prarthna of her plans. Distracted by an incoming call, Smita leaves. Prarthna, now worried, calls Sneha, asking for her whereabouts and offering to join her. However, Sneha, seeing Vihaan’s call, cuts the call. She informs Vihaan that she’s on her way and that Prarthna wanted to accompany her but was refused. Vihaan, satisfied, ends the call and orders his henchmen to kill Prarthna, who agree without hesitation.
Vihaan’s henchmen approach Prarthna, deceiving her by using Gayatri’s name to lure her away. As Sneha arrives at Vihaan’s house, the nurse urges her to make Vihaan take his medicine, warning that his life is at stake. The nurse then leaves. Sneha, her heart pounding, asks Vihaan to take his medicine. Vihaan, looking remorseful, apologizes and asks Sneha to first declare her love for him. Sneha, seeing the urgency, agrees and confesses her love for him.
Meanwhile, Prarthna, realizing she has been deceived, sees Gayatri and witnesses Vihaan calling his henchmen. Before she can react, the henchmen knock her out with chloroform, leaving her unconscious.
The episode ends with Prarthna’s fate hanging in the balance.
