The episode begins with a nurse informing Mannat that her mother, Shruthi, is ready to be discharged from the hospital as she has regained consciousness. A wave of relief washes over Mannat as she expresses her happiness, feeling grateful that her mother is alright again. However, the moment takes a surprising turn when Shruthi notices Aishwarya standing beside her. Confusion and shock fill Shruthi’s face as she processes Aishwarya’s presence. Mannat quickly reassures her mother, insisting that there is no need to be afraid of Aishwarya, explaining that Aishwarya has selflessly donated her liver to save Shruthi’s life. Mannat reveals that Aishwarya is fully aware of Shruthi’s true identity as Sonia Khanna.
Understanding the gravity of the situation, Mannat acknowledges that she now comprehends why Shruthi kept this secret from her; her mother wanted to protect her from Aishwarya’s influence. However, Aishwarya interrupts, demanding that Mannat and Shruthi leave her home immediately, asserting her desire to keep them out of her life.
Meanwhile, tensions rise in another part of the house as Kiran confronts Neetu and Roni about Vikrant’s recent misbehavior. She expresses her frustration, stating that no one in her family has ever crossed boundaries like this, especially not before a wedding. Kiran insists that they must answer for their actions. Mallika, attempting to defend Vikrant, claims that he was drunk and that it was beyond her control. Kiran retorts, emphasizing that such behavior is unacceptable and not typical of their family.
Neetu, caught in the middle, mentions that they are supposed to marry that very day. However, Mallika counters that the wedding cannot proceed because Vikrant loves Mannat. She reveals that Vikrant has already canceled the wedding, insisting that she will keep this information confidential. As she pretends to leave, she secretly eavesdrops on the conversation. Kiran expresses her anger to Neetu, stating that Vikrant has crossed a line and that she will not allow him to betray Mallika. She insists that they must confront Aishwarya and Gagan about the situation, declaring that Vikrant must marry Mallika today, regardless of the circumstances.
Later, Aishwarya confronts Mannat, demanding that she vacate Mallika’s house and stop interfering in their lives. Mannat, standing her ground, asserts that she has no intention of living with Aishwarya but refuses to let Aishwarya dictate her actions. Aishwarya, suspecting that Mannat is acting defiantly due to some evidence she possesses, attempts to seize Mannat’s phone to delete a recording. Mannat, unfazed, provides her password, asserting that there is no recording to delete. She confidently states that her mother raised her to be honest and not cunning like Aishwarya, declaring her autonomy over her own life.
Meanwhile, Kiran approaches Neetu, inquiring about the escalating situation. Vikrant, feeling the weight of the moment, confesses to Neetu that he cannot marry Mallika, as he has no genuine feelings for her. He expresses his unwillingness to ruin two lives with a forced marriage. Roni interjects, criticizing Vikrant for disrespecting a woman and for his reckless behavior. Vikrant apologizes, explaining that he never intended to disrespect Mallika and that his actions were influenced by his intoxication. He emphasizes that he would never take advantage of her.
Kiran, incredulous, questions whether Vikrant is implying that Mallika is lying. Vikrant quickly denies this, but Kiran insists that it is fortunate she witnessed the situation, or they might have hidden the truth. Vikrant maintains that he respects Mallika and does not wish to harm her. Roni insists that Vikrant must take responsibility for his actions, while Neetu insists that the wedding will proceed as planned. Vikrant, however, firmly rejects this notion. Roni, raising his voice, threatens Vikrant, stating that he should have thought about the implications of proposing to Mallika. He warns Vikrant that they will go to great lengths to prevent the wedding if necessary. Mallika, overhearing this exchange, feels a sense of satisfaction at the discord.
Later, Aishwarya contacts Ravinder, instructing him to follow Mannat as she and Shruthi leave the hospital. Aishwarya reflects on Mannat’s misguided belief that she can blackmail her with the evidence she possesses. Meanwhile, Mallika informs Aishwarya that everything is set for her wedding, which will take place that day. Aishwarya feels a sense of triumph, believing that today will bring her triple happiness: Mannat’s demise, the concealment of her own truth, and her daughter’s marriage.
As Mannat packs her belongings, preparing to leave for Chandigarh, Ravinder discreetly follows them. Aishwarya’s thoughts turn dark as she contemplates Mannat’s fate, recalling the threat Mannat made to push her into the sea. Aishwarya reflects that the pain of childbirth pales in comparison to the suffering Mannat has caused her. Determined, Aishwarya resolves that she will not allow Mannat to disrupt her peace any longer.
