The episode begins with Rishi anxiously wanting to see his hospitalized father. Although Suman has denied any connection to him, Rishi has already developed feelings of care for Teerth. Upon entering the hospital cabin, he immediately embraces Teerth with affection. Witnessing their bond makes Suman feel insecure, and when Rishi expresses his desire to stay a little longer with his father, Suman forcibly drags him away and insists they return home. Despite her emotional turmoil at seeing her ex-husband’s poor condition, Suman suddenly realizes that Teerth has been pretending to be ill.
Once Suman departs, Teerth quickly stands up on his own, thanking the doctor for assisting him in maintaining the ruse. He reveals that he has collected several strands of Rishi’s hair in order to conduct a DNA test that will confirm his paternity.
Realizing Teerth’s deceit, Suman storms back into the cabin, attempting to grab the pouch containing the hairs. A struggle ensues as she tries to snatch it from him. Teerth, unfazed, admits he will go to any lengths to reclaim his son.
At that moment, Devika storms into the cabin with a group of police officers, instructing them to arrest Suman for attempting to murder Teerth. To further distance himself from Suman, Teerth falsely claims that she attacked him. Devika then presents a video as evidence to support their case.
Hema and Malini are left in shock as they witness the police arresting Suman without any hesitation. Vikram desperately tries to intervene and save her, but all their attempts prove futile. The situation escalates when a journalist questions Suman about her relationship with Teerth, prompting Vikram to become increasingly agitated and unable to accept any insinuation of intimacy between Suman and Teerth. In a fit of rage, he lashes out at the journalist.
In a dramatic turn of events, Vikram pulls out a gun and threatens the police officer, demanding that she release Suman immediately. He warns her that he will take his own life if they do not let her go. Suman is horrified by Vikram’s erratic behavior, and everyone around pleads with him to calm down. His overwhelming love for Suman drives him into a frenzy at the sight of her distress. She approaches him gently, trying to soothe him, reminding him that he must be strong for Rishi, who will be left alone if anything happens to her.
Meanwhile, Rishi begins to understand that Teerth is attempting to drive a wedge between him and his mother, leading to a growing hatred for Teerth in his heart.
