The episode opens with a bustling scene at the temple, where Prarthna unexpectedly runs into Raunak and Smita. Caught off guard, she quickly apologizes, explaining that she didn’t know they were there, and hurriedly leaves the area. As she walks away, Payal makes a comment about Prarthna, her tone laced with judgment. Raunak, defending Prarthna, points out that it was their family that came to the temple unexpectedly, not Prarthna’s. He expresses his irritation at Payal’s remark, indicating that everyone should be more understanding. Meanwhile, Smita excuses herself to fetch Gangajal for Raunak and Payal, leaving the tension hanging in the air.
The scene shifts to Bhavesh, who is engaged in a conversation with Rosy. Rosy, with an air of entitlement, demands money from Bhavesh, insisting that he needs to fund her holiday plans. Bhavesh, looking stressed, replies that he doesn’t have any money at the moment. Unbeknownst to them, Ketki spots them together, her expression shifting from curiosity to concern as she observes the interaction.
In a separate part of the temple, the Pandit is performing Pooja for the Zaveri family, Payal’s family, and Bhavesh’s family, as well as Prarthna’s family. The atmosphere is solemn and spiritual, but the underlying tensions among the characters are palpable.
Ketki approaches Bhavesh, her brow furrowed in concern, and asks him what he’s doing at the temple. As they speak, she notices Harsh and Mayank nearby. Curious, she inquires about their presence, and they reveal that they are worried about Bhavesh, sensing something is amiss. Ketki, protective of Bhavesh, insists that he isn’t there and tries to send them away, not wanting them to get involved in whatever trouble Bhavesh might be facing.
Back at the temple, Bhavesh grows increasingly agitated and tells Rosy to leave him alone. In a dramatic twist, Rosy threatens to commit suicide, claiming she will write a letter with his name on it. Alarmed, Bhavesh rushes after her as she storms out of the temple. Raunak, noticing Bhavesh’s frantic pursuit, decides to follow him, concerned about what might happen next.
Meanwhile, Rocky forcefully drags Payal out of the temple, his demeanor aggressive and controlling. Prarthna, witnessing this troubling scene, feels a surge of worry for her friend. Determined to help, she hops into an auto and follows Rocky’s car, her heart racing as she considers what could unfold.
Outside, Rosy confronts Bhavesh, warning him not to approach her. She brandishes a letter, claiming she has already written his name on it, threatening to harm herself. Bhavesh, desperate to prevent her from going through with her threat, pleads with her to stop. Rosy demands money, insisting that since they spent the night together, he owes her. In a moment of frustration, Bhavesh agrees and throws his purse on the ground, hoping to appease her. However, when Rosy discovers there’s no money inside, she mocks him, her words laced with disdain. Just then, Raunak appears, ready to expose Bhavesh’s secret. Bhavesh, panicking, warns Raunak to keep quiet, threatening to hurt him if he reveals anything.
As the tension builds, the Pandit calls for the brides and grooms, signaling it’s time for the ceremony to proceed. Smita heads off to find Raunak, determined to keep everything on track.
Suddenly, a lady Sadhu intercepts Smita, questioning her motives. She warns Smita about trying to force two people together who are not meant to be. Smita, taken aback, insists that she doesn’t know the Sadhu and that she believes in fate. The Sadhu, however, counters that Smita cannot change anyone’s destiny, suggesting that her efforts are futile. Smita, undeterred, claims that those meant to be together will find their way, and she walks away, dismissing the Sadhu’s words.
Meanwhile, Payal urges Rocky to stop the car, feeling trapped. In a sudden turn of events, Rocky’s car gets into an accident, causing Payal to jump out. Rocky, desperate, pleads with her not to go through with the marriage, insisting that she loves him. Payal, infuriated, retorts that she is determined to marry Raunak, her mind made up. At that moment, Prarthna arrives on the scene, witnessing the heated argument. She realizes the depth of feelings between Payal and Rocky and decides she must inform Raunak about their connection.
As the chaos unfolds, Ketki calls Payal, trying to reach her. Payal attempts to answer, but Rocky prevents her from doing so. In a twist of fate, Ketki’s call accidentally connects, and she hears Prarthna’s voice nearby. Alarmed, she sees Prarthna standing close to Payal and Rocky, her heart sinking as she witnesses the argument. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Ketki hangs up just as Smita approaches her, asking where Payal is and mentioning that the Pandit is calling for her. Ketki, sensing the urgency, tells Smita to look for her son while she goes to find Payal.
Later, Ketki calls Payal again, her voice urgent as she warns her that Prarthna has seen her with Rocky. She advises Payal to be cautious and keep away from Prarthna, knowing the potential fallout that could ensue from their secret.
As the episode draws to a close, the tension escalates, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, eager to see how the relationships and secrets will unfold in the next episode.
