The episode opens with a lively scene as Manoj is seen drinking and laughing, his spirits high despite the circumstances. His younger brother, Jishnu, approaches him with a hint of nostalgia in his voice. He reminds Manoj that today is his birthday, yet he can’t enjoy his favorite dish. Jishnu reminisces about how their elder brother used to cook for him on his special day, a tradition that seems to have faded away. Manoj, with a playful smirk, asserts his role as Jishnu’s elder brother now, promising to cook for him. He eagerly asks Jishnu what he would like to eat, unaware that Jishnu is secretly plotting something. Jishnu thinks to himself that his plan is unfolding just as he intended.
Meanwhile, in another part of the house, Ranjeeta is getting ready to leave for work, her demeanor brisk and focused. Surendar, her husband, inquires about breakfast, but Riya, their daughter, casually responds that she hasn’t made any. She suggests they hire a maid to handle the household chores. Rajneeta, overhearing the conversation, chimes in, reminding Riya that she used to cook when she was living in the house. Surendar, puzzled by Riya’s sudden change in attitude, presses her for an explanation. Riya, feeling cornered, lashes out, accusing them of doing nothing for Kirpal, a family member whose well-being seems to be a point of contention.
Surendar, angered by Riya’s comments, threatens to confront Kirpal, while Riya retorts with a sharp taunt, criticizing Surendar for lounging around the house all the time. Rajneeta, ever the mediator, scolds Riya for her disrespectful tone. Frustrated, Riya retreats to her room, leaving the tension thick in the air.
Back with Manoj, he excitedly informs Alka that they will be throwing a party to celebrate Jishnu’s birthday. He rushes inside, leaving Alka confused and curious. She wonders aloud, “What drug is this?” implying that Manoj’s enthusiasm seems misplaced. Jishnu, overhearing her, dismisses her concerns, joking that it’s a cheap one.
As the celebration begins, Manoj enthusiastically throws a party for Jishnu, who is visibly enjoying the attention. Jishnu shows Megha the food he has prepared, fulfilling a promise he made to her. Manoj, caught up in the festivities, dances joyfully with Jishnu, creating a lighthearted atmosphere. However, Alka, observing from a distance, begins to piece together the puzzle and wonders for whom Jishnu is secretly taking the food.
In a moment of intimacy, Jishnu hands the food to Megha, proudly announcing that he has completed his challenge. He feeds her, and as they share a lingering eye lock, Alka notices the connection between them, her curiosity piqued.
Suddenly, Ghooran, who has been unconscious, regains his senses and is bewildered by the lively scene. He spots Manoj dancing and asks what’s happening. Manoj, ever the host, welcomes Ghooran warmly and comments on how fit he looks. Ghooran, however, has other things on his mind; he declares his intention to marry Megha the very next day, loudly calling out her name in search of her.
Megha, hearing Ghooran’s voice, turns to Jishnu and confides her concerns. Alka, sensing the tension, questions them about the commotion. She speculates that Jishnu must have a reason for feeding Megha in secret. Jishnu tries to explain, but Megha cuts in, asking Alka what she wants to hear. Alka points out that Jishnu feeding Megha raises suspicions, clearly indicating her disapproval of their actions.
Megha, feeling pressured, insists that she has already stated she doesn’t want to eat and that everyone is pressuring her unnecessarily. She scolds Jishnu for constantly suggesting she eat, asserting that she knows what is best for her baby since she is pregnant. She accuses Alka of keeping tabs on her, demanding to be sent to Arjun, presumably someone she trusts.
Jishnu, trying to calm the situation, insists that Megha needs to eat, even if it means going to Arjun. He explains that he is looking after her because Manoj asked him to take care of the baby. He urges Megha to finish her food, but Alka is not convinced. She confronts them, declaring that she is not foolish enough to believe their excuses. She lists the various things Jishnu has done for Megha, implying that his intentions may not be as noble as he claims.
In defense of his actions, Jishnu explains that his mother raised him to treat women with respect and kindness. He insists that he hasn’t done anything extraordinary; he simply cares for Megha because she has no one else to look after her. Just then, they hear Ghooran’s voice calling for Megha again, causing Alka to rush over and embrace her father, seeking comfort.
As the episode draws to a close, Megha turns to Jishnu, pleading for him to save her from the emotional turmoil she is experiencing. The tension in the room is palpable, with unresolved feelings and intentions hanging in the air. The episode ends on this cliffhanger, leaving viewers eager to see how the relationships will evolve and what decisions the characters will make in the face of mounting pressure.
