The episode opens with Chandrika and Hanumant visibly shocked as they watch a disturbing video. Hanumant shoots a furious glance at Vasudha. Meanwhile, Chandrika reflects on how she once staunchly defended Devansh. The host praises Chauhan for giving Vasudha a chance, calling her and Avinash to the stage. Prabhat urges Chandrika to hold her temper and suggests they discuss the situation at home instead. Avinash escorts Vasudha up, and the host prompts Chandrika to present the trophy to the winner. Emphasizing the significance of the moment, she proudly states that Devansh will receive the award from her. With a glare directed at Vasudha, she hands the trophy to Devansh and storms off angrily, while Sarika and Karishma exchange satisfied looks.
Later, a drenched Chandrika arrives home with Prabhat, who questions why she is standing outside in the rain. Memories flood back of her confidently stating that Devansh would never go against her. Overcome with emotion, she begins to cry. Prabhat urges her to come inside, but she insists on being left alone. Refusing to abandon her, he gently insists they head inside together. Karishma and Sarika join them, and Karishma takes a shot at Chandrika’s pride, claiming it has been shattered by Devansh’s actions.
Inside, Chandrika orders Prabhat to go in without her, but he insists on taking her inside for her own good. Karishma pretends to be concerned, lying that she hasn’t seen the video, while Sarika wonders if Karishma has ulterior motives to manipulate Chandrika’s feelings toward Vasudha.
Devansh and a few others soon arrive. He wraps a shawl around his mother’s shoulders, concerned she might be cold. In a shocking response, Chandrika violently throws the shawl aside and slaps Devansh. The room falls silent as Devansh, taken aback, drops to his knees, begging for forgiveness. He admits he made a grave mistake by hiding the truth from her.
Chandrika instructs Prabhat to make it clear to Devansh that she won’t fall for his melodrama. She asserts her identity as the true Chandrika, who built the Chauhan industry on principles of honesty and integrity. She expresses her disappointment, declaring that Devansh no longer deserves to stay in her home. Devansh pleads with her not to say such hurtful things.
Karishma chimes in, reminding Devansh that his deception led to Chandrika’s current state. She points out that he should have consulted Chandrika before committing to marry Vasudha. Sarika attempts to console Chandrika by saying she tried to intervene with Devansh and Avinash, but was ignored; they claimed they could manage Chandrika’s reaction.
Karishma further places blame on Vasudha, accusing Devansh of acting purely for her benefit, insisting that he wanted Vasudha to receive a 1% profit share. Sarika shifts the blame to Hanumant and Vasudha, to which Hanumant defensively states he only learned of the video today.
Vasudha interjects, insisting that Hanumant is telling the truth. Hanumant, frustrated, tells her to be quiet. He raises his hand in frustration, attempting to strike her, but Prabhat intervenes. Vasudha explains that the circumstances were complex. Chandrika, however, questions Vasudha’s role in this matter. Devansh attempts to take the blame, asking Chandrika to punish him instead of pushing her away. In a heartbreaking moment, Chandrika declares she will punish herself for ever trusting Devansh. Devansh calls her “Mother,” only to be met with her cold response that he has lost the right to call her that.
