The episode opens with a scene of blessings for baby Vayu, shared by Vaiju, Rannvijay, and Jaya. The eunuchs present invite only the baby’s mother to stay, prompting Vaiju to step back. She earnestly asks for their blessings, hoping that Vayu will never have to suffer. Rannvijay announces that the baby’s name is Vayu.
Later, Jaya reflects on Vaiju’s actions, distractedly attempting to feed Vayu with an empty bottle. Vasundhara intervenes, noticing Jaya’s unease with Vaiju’s maternal claims over Vayu. She explains that seeing Vayu makes her feel the weight of her losses, and if hugging him comforts Vaiju, Jaya should support her.
Meanwhile, in her room, Vaiju clings to baby clothes, overwhelmed by her longing for Vayu. A sudden storm brews outside, causing strong winds to blow. Concerned, Vaiju worries that Vayu may be feeling cold. While Jaya tries to soothe the crying baby, Vaiju offers him a sweater she knitted, insisting he must be chilly. Jaya encourages Vaiju to dress Vayu while she retrieves more clothes from outside.
As Vaiju wraps Vayu in the sweater, she lovingly tells him that he is her son, and that whenever he wears it, he will feel the warmth of her love. Rannvijay walks by and observes this tender moment. Jaya mentions how heartbroken she was when Vayu cried after she left, contrasting it with his current cheerful demeanor. She questions Rannvijay about the bond between Vaiju and Vayu, wondering why it seems absent from her connection with him. Rannvijay internally acknowledges the maternal bond but refrains from explaining that babies recognize their mother’s heartbeat. He remarks that Vaiju’s heart beats for Vayu and requests Jaya to allow the baby to stay with Vaiju for the night.
Jaya reluctantly takes Vayu back, but he begins to cry again, clinging to Vaiju’s finger as she tries to leave. Rannvijay prepares to depart with Vaiju, yet Jaya encourages him to bond with the baby. However, Rannvijay insists that Vaiju needs him more at that moment and returns to her side. Vaiju embraces a baby doll, wondering if Vayu will ever know she is his mother and if he’ll be able to forgive her. Rannvijay reassures her that he did everything possible to protect Jaya when she thought her baby was lost.
Overhearing their exchange, Jaya rushes to Vayu, picking him up in her arms and declaring her intent to leave. Vaiju, sensing the urgency, hurries after her. Meanwhile, Jaya drives away with Vayu, prompting Vasundhara to reassure Vaiju that the baby will be safe with Jaya and that she shouldn’t worry. Rannvijay awakens, while Vaiju quickly hops on her bike and begins to follow Jaya’s car, desperately trying to stop her, but Jaya continues driving away.
The episode concludes on this tense note.
