The episode opens with Aishwarya informing Neetu that Vikrant has arrived, suggesting they extend Holi greetings to him. Neetu mentions that he’s preoccupied with work and hasn’t had the opportunity to greet her. As Vikrant stumbles, Mannat catches him, drawing jealousy from Mallika who notices their closeness. Aishwarya takes this chance to stir Neetu’s feelings against Mannat, claiming Mannat holds more significance to Vikrant than his own mother. She insists that if Neetu had accepted Mannat as a daughter-in-law, Vikrant wouldn’t be acting this way; instead, he’s fallen for Mannat’s charms. Neetu firmly states she will not recognize Mannat as part of the family. Aishwarya, seeking to manipulate, suggests Neetu supplant Mallika in Mannat’s position and urges her to compare Mallika to Mannat, whom she labels merely as a servant.
Later, Vikrant checks in with Mannat to see if she’s found a rental place. She reassures him, stating that everything is taken care of. Mallika invites Vikrant to attend a wedding party with her, but he declines, citing it as dull. After she promises it won’t be boring, he reluctantly agrees. Neetu expresses to Aishwarya her success in persuading him to join Mallika, claiming he will always listen to her. Aishwarya secretly thinks Neetu is unwittingly under her control. She orders her assistant to monitor Mannat and ensure she doesn’t communicate with Vikrant. Meanwhile, the henchmen follow Mannat, causing turmoil as she attempts to get them to leave her home.
Vikrant grows anxious about Mannat’s well-being, while Mallika chats incessantly, garnering no attention from him. Mannat calls out for help, prompting Vikrant to stop the car and instruct Mallika to exit. Furious, she chastises him for abandoning her. Attempting to reach Mannat proves fruitless as she ignores his calls; he instructs his assistant to trace her location and speeds off. Upon arriving, he finds the goons harassing Mannat, leading to a confrontation. Vikrant calls the police and shields Mannat with his blazer. Back home, Mallika stages a scene, accusing Vikrant of leaving her stranded, which Neetu confronts her about. Mallika claims to have returned on her own, and Neetu reprimands her for letting Vikrant fend for himself. Aishwarya continues to fuel Neetu’s animosity towards Mannat, while Vikrant comforts Mannat and insists on taking her to his home. Aishwarya suggests that Mallika seek revenge on Mannat instead of Vikrant. Vikrant ultimately brings Mannat to his residence.
