The episode opens with a tense atmosphere as Roni turns to Vikrant, asking him if he has something he wants to share with the group. Vikrant hesitates, revealing that he has realized it’s not the right time to speak up, leaving everyone curious and slightly anxious about what he might be holding back.
Later, Mannat approaches Shalini, her voice filled with urgency as she inquires whether Shalini has written the letter they discussed. Mannat insists that she must attend the upcoming party without fail, her determination evident. Vikrant, overhearing their conversation, asks Mannat why she is so intent on attending. Caught off guard by his question, Mannat stumbles for an answer. Meanwhile, Shalini quickly hides the letter from Vikrant’s view, sensing the tension.
Vikrant, feeling slightly frustrated, comments on Mannat’s constant chatter but notes her inability to answer his simple question. He then presents her with a dress for the party, insisting that she wear it. Mannat, however, firmly states that she doesn’t need it, unwilling to comply. Vikrant, understanding her reluctance, expresses his awareness of her hard work and dedication towards his wedding plans. He reveals that she has been secretly arranging a special surprise for her best friend, Mallika, and he wants to see her happy. Thus, he promotes her to the role of host for the party, declaring that the dress is her uniform for the evening. With that, he leaves, leaving Mannat feeling conflicted.
Once alone with Shalini, Mannat insists that she must send the letter to Aishwarya, her resolve unshaken despite the risks. Shalini, however, warns her that attempting to do so could lead to her getting caught. She reveals that Aishwarya is already one step ahead in their game, having employed a special powder that would reveal Mannat’s fingerprints under UV light. This news sends a chill down Mannat’s spine, but she quickly regains her composure, determined to outsmart Aishwarya. She devises a plan, confident that she can deliver the letter without being caught and turn the tables on Aishwarya.
Meanwhile, at the party, Mallika is busy welcoming her friends, reveling in the excitement of the evening. She introduces Vikrant as her fiancé, and he graciously thanks the guests for attending. As the festivities continue, Mannat arrives and congratulates Mallika, expressing her happiness for her. She surprises everyone by announcing a special dance performance dedicated to Mallika. In a moment of playful spontaneity, Mallika pulls Vikrant onto the dance floor, while Mannat secretly dreams of dancing with him instead.
As the dance unfolds, Mallika requests Mannat to fetch her engagement ring from her room. Mannat seizes this opportunity, realizing that Mallika is inadvertently helping her gain access to the room she needs to enter. Mannat asks where the ring is, to which Mallika sheepishly admits that she forgot it in her bathroom. Mannat, sensing the urgency of the moment, excuses herself, determined to find a way to execute her plan.
Unbeknownst to Mannat, Mallika has a devious plan of her own. She thinks that if Mannat slips on the floor where she has poured serum, it could lead to a dangerous accident, potentially harming Mannat seriously. Her malicious intentions highlight the growing tension between the two characters.
As Mannat makes her way to the room, Aishwarya notices her and, suspicious of her actions, decides to follow her discreetly. Aishwarya’s instincts prove correct when she finds the letter lying on Mannat’s bed. She picks it up, realizing that Mannat has left it behind, and smirks at the thought that Mannat is not a serious threat to her. Aishwarya reads the contents of the letter, which accuse her of numerous sins, including setting fire to the colony. Mannat boldly states that she has evidence against Aishwarya and demands a meeting in the colony.
However, Aishwarya, using her cunning, checks the letter under UV light, only to discover that there are no fingerprints belonging to Mannat on it. This revelation sends a wave of unease through Aishwarya, making her realize that Mannat is not the only one who knows her secrets.
Meanwhile, as Mannat is distracted by her mission, she accidentally loses her balance. Just in time, Vikrant catches her, steadying her. Concerned, he asks her why she is wearing gloves. Mannat quickly concocts a lie, claiming that she is worried about damaging the expensive ring. She hastily discards the gloves, trying to appear nonchalant about the whole situation.
Later, Aishwarya, feeling the pressure of the unfolding events, reflects on the implications of Mannat not sending the letter to her. She begins to fear that someone else might know her secret identity as Sonia Khanna. If that were the case, she realizes, that person could confront her directly rather than resorting to blackmail. This thought leaves Aishwarya in a state of paranoia, realizing the stakes are higher than she initially believed.
The episode ends on a cliffhanger, with both Mannat and Aishwarya embroiled in their respective plots, each determined to outwit the other. The tension is palpable as the party continues, setting the stage for confrontations and revelations in the episodes to come.
