The episode opens with an altercation between Sachin and Joy, who accuses Sayali of being a thief. In a moment of uncontrollable anger, Sachin raises his hand to slap Joy, showing no hesitation even with other guests present. Riya and Akash arrive just in time to witness the confrontation, leaving them shocked by Sachin’s reckless behavior. Riya can’t comprehend that Sachin would strike her father and fuming with anger at him.
Despite witnessing the incident, Riya chooses not to forgive Sachin and declares that she will stay away from her in-laws’ family. This reaction from Riya was anticipated, given her furious state. Akash’s father advises him to support his wife and return to their home promptly. Roshnik and Shikha, observing from afar, share sly smirks at Sachin’s reckless actions.
On their way back home, Sachin abruptly stops the car to discuss the earlier incident. He expresses his outrage over Joy’s insulting words toward Sayali, emphasizing her innocence. However, Sayali is taken aback by Sachin’s reaction, given that he had just been aggressive towards a senior member of the family.
Renuka is deeply upset by the whole incident and chastises both Sachin and Sayali for spoiling the enjoyment of the event. Paresh learns that Akash has decided not to return home, prompting him to call Akash, but Akash clarifies his intentions about not coming back at that moment.
Using cooking as a metaphor for reconciliation, Akash attempts to soothe Riya’s anger, but she struggles to forget the humiliating incident from the event. He asks Riya if she wants to return to the Deshmukh family, to which she firmly replies that she no longer wishes to go back with him, feeling that his behavior is unjustifiable.
After some time, Sachin and Sayali return home after having dinner out, only to be confronted by Renuka, who forbids them from entering the house. She expresses her determination not to allow the couple in anymore.
Despite Paresh’s attempts to calm Renuka’s fury, she disregards his pleas and insists they wait outside the house.
**Precap:** Renuka resolves not to eat until Akash returns home. In solidarity, Paresh and Sachin decide to join her in fasting to try and break her stubborn resolve.
