The episode opens with Mannat and Vikrant boarding a flight, filled with excitement. Mannat is eagerly recording a video to share with her friend Shruthi, while Vikrant listens patiently to her animated chatter. However, in her enthusiasm, Mannat mistakenly sits in the wrong seat. Vikrant gently reminds her to move to her assigned seat, showcasing his caring nature.
As they settle in, Aishwarya boards the same flight, visibly upset. She chastises Shalini for booking an economy class ticket instead of a business class one. Shalini explains that due to an emergency, she could only secure this seat, as all others were fully booked. Aishwarya’s frustration grows, and she is taken aback when she notices Mannat and Vikrant on the flight. Realizing that they could potentially reach Ambala before her, she feels her plan is jeopardized. In a desperate attempt to avoid being seen, Aishwarya pushes another girl aside and takes a seat that isn’t hers, cleverly obscuring her face from Mannat.
Meanwhile, a secretive scene unfolds in the Mezbani kitchen, where Neetu meets with a doctor. He expresses gratitude for her support, and she reveals that she provided him with money because he was in need. The doctor hands her some tablets, cautioning that while they are effective, prolonged use might lead to side effects. Neetu inquires about their safety, and he reassures her, but warns her to be vigilant. As he excuses himself, Neetu reflects on her deep love for her son, vowing not to disclose the truth about her not being his biological mother.
In the midst of this, Vikrant sends Neetu a heartfelt message, urging her to drink a smoothie. Overwhelmed with emotion, Neetu reads the message. Mannat, observing the interaction, playfully teases Vikrant about being a “mumma’s boy.” She comments on his poor manners for reading the message aloud, but Vikrant defends himself, explaining that it was important to check on his mom, who is upset with Mannat. Mannat empathizes, stating that a mother’s heart is often forgiving.
Curiosity piqued, Vikrant questions Mannat about her search for Sonia Khanna, asking who she is to her. Mannat reveals that Sonia is her biological mother, which shocks Vikrant. She recounts a painful story of abandonment, stating that Sonia left her on the shore when she was born, intending to harm her. In contrast, she explains that Shruthi, her mausi, saved her life. Despite their differing perspectives, Mannat feels a bond with both women. Vikrant expresses his sympathy for her situation.
Meanwhile, Mallika is busy orchestrating a romantic dinner for Vikrant, hoping to impress him with a special table setting. She has planned everything to be his favorite, but Laksh, a staff member, is frustrated by the extra work she is imposing on the team.
Later, Vikrant confronts Mannat about her intentions to meet Sonia. He wonders if she wishes to confront her. Mannat admits that she hasn’t shared her feelings with anyone yet. As their conversation continues, Mallika interrupts, determined to save her own mother, who is in need of a liver transplant. She reveals that she is searching for Sonia to see if she can provide a matching liver. Despite her hatred for Sonia, she is willing to set it aside for the sake of her mother’s life. Mannat expresses her desire to save her sister too, highlighting the complexity of their family ties.
As a storm brews outside, Vikrant comforts Mannat, trying to ease her fears. He engages a nearby passenger to sing a song, but Aishwarya’s displeasure is evident. Mannat excuses herself to visit the washroom, but Mallika grows impatient waiting for Vikrant, suspecting he might be with Mannat. In a malicious move, Aishwarya locks Mannat out from the outside, causing her to feel scared and isolated. Vikrant, sensing something is wrong, becomes increasingly worried about Mannat’s well-being.
The episode concludes on a tense note, leaving viewers eager to see how the unfolding drama will resolve.
