The episode begins with Suman suspecting that Devika is plotting an act of revenge against them. Meanwhile, Hema and Malini are busy preparing for a Pooja ceremony at their home. Vikram reassures Suman that he will manage the situation and that she shouldn’t worry. Just then, Vikram receives a call and learns that Devika is holding a press conference to raise some unresolved questions about Suman’s past, particularly concerning the identity of Rishi’s father. Panic sets in for Suman as she realizes that if Rishi learns the truth, her plans could crumble instantly. Rishi, oblivious to the unfolding drama, proudly shows off the floral garland he has made for the Pooja.
Teerth gets ready to attend the ceremony at Suman’s house and encourages Akhil and Gitanjali Devi to prepare as well. Devika, however, mocks his intentions, warning him of the consequences if he allows Suman back into his life. Her aim is to publicly expose Suman’s secrets, specifically the identity of Rishi’s father, to embarrass her in front of the media.
Finally, the Pooja begins at Suman’s house. The priest mistakenly assumes that Vikram is Suman’s husband and asks him to sit beside him to participate in the rituals. Suddenly, Suman learns about Devika’s press conference, which could reveal Rishi’s paternity. Terrified that Rishi might see the live broadcast and become confused, she quickly snatches the phone from his hands to prevent him from watching.
Teerth, amidst the gathering, admits to the mistakes he made with his ex-wife and shockingly confesses that he was responsible for the death of Suman’s brother, Rishi. Suman and her mother look at him in disbelief at his sudden candor. However, before he can elaborate further, Devika interrupts him, twisting his words to highlight his so-called betrayal by Suman Indori.
To further humiliate Suman, Devika loudly interrogates her about Rishi’s father in front of the media. Suman, terrified of the repercussions, deflects by challenging the reporters to uncover the truth about her life. In a desperate move, she begins to blow the conch shell loudly to drown out Devika’s voice.
In a fit of rage, Devika brings an iron rod and smashes the loudspeakers that Suman is using to play the conch. Outraged by Devika’s destruction of the Pooja arrangements, Suman and others lash out at her, criticizing her for ruining the ceremony.
