The episode opens with Jaya feeling overwhelmed and emotional at the sight of Vaiju, questioning if she is truly alive. Vaiju reveals that the doctor has asked for her medications, prompting Jaya to realize Vaiju is Vayu’s fighter aunt. Remembering Vayu’s words, Jaya becomes anxious, fearing that she may lose Rannvijay once again. As tears stream down her face, she reflects on whether life will put her back in that painful position. Meanwhile, Rannvijay is troubled by thoughts of Milind and Vaiju together, feeling a deep sense of hurt. Vani approaches him, offering to apply medicine to his wounds, but he responds that some wounds take longer to heal than others.
Vaiju expresses disbelief to Sunita that Rannvijay has married Jaya and named their son Vayu. Jaya enters, calling out to Vaiju, who promptly asks her not to refer to her as sister. Grateful, Jaya thanks Vaiju for saving her husband again, but Vaiju insists that Jaya should be thanking Rannvijay for saving Vani. With a heavy heart, Jaya explains how shattered Rannvijay was after hearing about her demise, confiding that she has carried guilt ever since that fateful day. She adds that whenever she calls Vayu’s name, it reminds her of the child she lost.
Jaya then inquires if Vani is Vaiju’s daughter, mentioning how sweet she is and how Vani has brought new hope for Vayu. Rannvijay’s thoughts linger on Milind and Vaiju, intensifying his emotional turmoil. Jaya also wonders why Vaiju has never reached out to her, to which Vaiju responds that Jaya should consider her dead, as was assumed. Acknowledging that much has changed over the past year, Jaya openly expresses her desire for forgiveness; however, Vaiju coldly states that apologies are for mistakes, not crimes, reminding Jaya that she has lost both her child and husband because of her.
Jaya, still heartbroken, remarks on how she has seen Milind playing with Vani, suggesting a connection between them. Vaiju, defensive, tells Jaya not to meddle in her life. As tears fill her eyes, Jaya reveals it’s her birthday, and Vaiju acknowledges this fact. Rannvijay then confronts Vaiju, expressing anger over her relationship with Milind. Vaiju retorts by asking if he ever questioned her about his marriage to Jaya, escalating tensions. In frustration, Rannvijay throws away his medicine, while Vasundhara calls Jaya to inquire about Rannvijay’s condition. Jaya reassures her that Rannvijay was injured while saving Vani but is out of danger and will return soon.
Vayu comes up to Vaiju and embraces her, expressing gratitude for saving Rannvijay, confident that she will help him heal too. Vani sweetly chats with Jaya, who then asks her about her father. Vani surprisingly claims that her father is a brave man, leaving everyone shocked, only to clarify that he is brave like Rannvijay. Later, Rannvijay experiences a nightmare about Milind and Vaiju, prompting a confrontation with Jaya about her hiding the truth about Vaiju. Vani tries to give a drawing to Vayu, but Vaiju discourages her from doing so. The episode concludes with Vaiju making a firm statement that she will never reveal to Vani that Rannvijay is her father.
**Precap:** Rannvijay demands that Vaiju leave his life for good.
