The episode begins with a jewelry shop salesman expressing his desire to meet Aishwarya Rai, mentioning that he has crafted an engagement ring at her request. Mannat offers to take him to Aishwarya. Meanwhile, Aishwarya commends Vikrant for his determination in obtaining his Mezbani license, attributing his success to Mannat’s influence over Mrs. Burman, who kept her promise. Vikrant explains that it was Mallika who brought Mannat into his life, clarifying that she is the one who has helped him in the kitchen. Aishwarya pretends to agree with him but is clearly plotting something.
Mannat approaches Aishwarya, indicating that he has brought some rings she ordered. Aishwarya guides him away, scolding the salesboy for revealing too much about her surprise. In the commotion, a ring slips from her grasp and falls unnoticed. Mannat spots the ring and wonders if it belongs to Vikrant before slipping it into his pocket.
Later, Puneet discusses ideas for a new menu with Aishwarya, who reveals her plan to host a party for her in-laws’ anniversary. With Vikrant’s approval, she sets the wheels in motion. Mannat intends to leave to take her mother to the hospital but is stopped by Puneet, who asks her to turn in the menu first. She shares her thoughts with him before calling Pintu to inform him she will head straight to the hospital afterward due to unfinished tasks.
Aishwarya and Roni share drinks, with Aishwarya complimenting him and referring to him as family. Roni reciprocates, expressing gratitude for the support Aishwarya’s family has provided. Aishwarya expresses her desire to transition their business relationship into a marriage alliance and wishes to oversee Vikrant and Mallika’s wedding. She acknowledges that since Vikrant and Mallika are grown, he should not dictate their life decisions. Excitedly, Aishwarya mentions planning an anniversary celebration where she intends to announce their engagement. Roni notes that Neetu used to call the shots in Vikrant’s life, but Aishwarya reassures him that both Neetu and Mallika get along very well. With Roni agreeing to her idea, Aishwarya reveals she plans to leave India after her marriage.
Meanwhile, Mannat is on a secret mission to find Sonia Khanna, scouring details from the school form. Torn between her desire to avoid a confrontation with Sonia and her need to cure her mother, she reluctantly acknowledges that meeting Sonia is necessary. Aishwarya is determined to do whatever it takes to secure Mallika’s future.
The next day, Roni brings gifts for Rajendran to show Neeti, including his newly acquired sherwani. He hopes to share the engagement news with her, but just then, Vikrant enters looking anxious. He informs them he lost the ring Neeti had gifted him. Neetu decides to search Aishwarya’s room, suspecting she may have taken it, as she tends to have ulterior motives. Vikrant defends Aishwarya, while Roni laments missing his opportunity to share his news with Neeti.
Aishwarya instructs Shalini to keep the ring hidden until the reporters arrive, but in a twist, she accidentally collides with Mannat. Mannat is anxiously awaiting a call from the principal regarding her mother’s situation. Aishwarya attempts to make Mannat stumble, but Vikrant intervenes, catching her before she falls.
And with that, the episode comes to a close.
