The episode opens with Hanumant serving food to Gulki when Devansh arrives, expressing concern for Hanumant’s well-being. Devansh admits his frustration with Hanumant due to the lack of candy for several days, prompting Hanumant to give him some. Devansh then inquires about Vasudha, to which Hanumant replies that she has gone to the temple. Devansh decides to speak with Vasudha there and heads off.
At the temple, Vasudha confides in God, questioning why she feels abandoned. She explains that her commitment to not marrying Madhav stems from her desire to avoid betraying him, yet this choice seems to have caused Hanumant pain. She reassures God that Devansh holds an irreplaceable place in her heart. As she continues her prayer, Devansh arrives and starts searching for her, but Vasudha enters the inner sanctum of the temple.
Devansh addresses God, perplexed by the hardships Vasudha faces, despite being a good person. He reflects on how their marriage should have brought joy to both her and her family; instead, it appears only to have caused distress. He prays for God to bring happiness to Vasudha and alleviate her struggles. The priest reassures him that God listens to all prayers.
Meanwhile, Vasudha speaks to Lord Krishna, announcing her decision to sever her relationship with Devansh. She worries that her choices might burden her family and resolves to remove her mangalsutra as a gesture of finality, declaring that her relationship with Devansh is insincere.
Just then, Devansh confronts her, stating he knows she’s withholding something important. He pleads for her to be honest, insisting that he cannot have peace without the truth. Vasudha admits she came to rectify her mistake but struggles to articulate what that mistake is. When he pushes her to be truthful, she reveals that her shotgun wedding isn’t meaningless to her. Devansh is taken aback by her admission.
She then shows her mangalsutra, confirming that she has not removed it and applies vermilion daily. Devansh reacts incredulously, considering it a cruel joke, but Vasudha insists it reflects her reality—she has accepted him as her husband. He counters, reminding her of his belief that their marriage was merely a facade, expressing concern about how this revelation might impact Chandrika. He is hurt and surprised, believing that Vasudha would not aim to separate him from her. Realizing she hasn’t revealed her entire truth to him, she withdraws, stating she cannot disclose more. As Devansh leaves for work, he seems troubled.
Later, Divya excitedly discusses a dream project with Avinash, who notes Devansh’s absence. After calling him, Avinash learns that Devansh encountered Vasudha and noticed she was in distress.
