The episode opens with Devansh and Avinash seated for an award ceremony. As Karishma attempts to sit next to Devansh, the staff stops her, stating that only winners can occupy those seats and the family must sit behind. Avinash reassures Devansh not to worry and encourages him to step aside for a moment. Concerned, Avinash asks what’s wrong, and Devansh reveals that Chandrika is not answering his calls. He expresses his reluctance to accept the award before confessing the truth to her. Avinash insists that they are there for Chandrika and urges Devansh to give the award to her, reaffirming his belief that she will understand Devansh’s actions were meant to protect the reputation of the Chauhan company. He leads Devansh back inside.
Meanwhile, Vasudha arrives with Hanumant, who expresses his disbelief at standing among the esteemed guests. Avinash spots Vasudha and greets her, mentioning that the award is a recognition of her contributions. Madhav offers to take care of Hanumant as Avinash escorts Vasudha backstage.
Sarika comments to Karishma that a maid has become an owner, which infuriates Karishma. She tells Sarika that everything will change shortly, asserting that Devansh is Chandrika’s pride, and once she learns the truth, it will devastate her. Karishma believes that winning Chandrika’s trust will pave the way for her to become the next queen of the Chauhan family, leaving Sarika visibly upset by her schemes.
Karishma then calls Vasudha over and instructs her to sit at the back, before taking her place. Avinash approaches Vasudha, questioning her decision to stay there, but she reassures him that she’s fine. The staff inform Karishma that she is in the wrong seat, prompting her to return to her designated area.
As the award function begins, Chandrika compliments Prabhat on Devansh’s appearance. However, when she notices Devansh trying to call her, she quickly disconnects, causing Prabhat to remark on her behavior. Chandrika explains that she can’t lie to Devansh and wishes to see his happiness when they finally meet. She also expresses her pride in Vasudha.
The host arrives to announce the special award, while Vasudha quietly reflects on her worries about Devansh. She finds him looking distressed and approaches him. Devansh confides that accepting the award will only serve as a reminder of how he betrayed Chandrika. He regrets not taking Madhav’s place on the day of the shoot, which he now considers a regrettable day. Vasudha reassures him it’s a day worth celebrating because she believes Chandrika will eventually forgive them both. She urges Devansh to accept the award for Chandrika’s happiness.
The host then calls Devansh to the stage, and he makes his way up. The host invites Chandrika and Prabhat to present the award, leading them to join Devansh. Karishma smirks at this development, whispering to Sarika that the situation is going according to her plan. As the host plays a video of the wedding, Chandrika, Prabhat, and Hanumant are taken aback to see Devansh as the groom, and Chandrika’s expression hardens as she glares at him.
