The episode opens in a tense atmosphere within the ICU, where Prabhat enters with a heavy heart. He approaches Chandrika, who is anxiously watching over Devansh. Prabhat, trying to offer comfort, tells her that God will not be heartless and that this situation is merely a test of their faith. He emphasizes that they must remain strong, believing that their prayers will be heard.
Chandrika, filled with determination, responds that she is ready to face any test that God has set before her. With a mother’s fierce love, she insists that God must listen to her prayers for her son’s recovery. After her heartfelt declaration, she leaves the ICU, her resolve evident. Hanumant and Savitri, concerned for Chandrika, follow her out, offering their support.
Meanwhile, Prabhat turns his attention to God, pleading for Devansh’s healing. Tears stream down his face as he expresses that he will not ask for anything else; all he desires is for his son to recover. His emotional turmoil is palpable as he cries, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on him.
Avinash, witnessing Prabhat’s distress, suggests that he should go home with Chandrika to rest. He offers to stay at the hospital, ensuring that Prabhat knows he will be there if anything happens. Prabhat, still anxious, requests Avinash to call him immediately if there are any updates regarding Devansh’s condition. Karishma, sensing the gravity of the situation, declares that she will stay with Avinash, offering her support.
As the group begins to disperse, Sarika, feeling the pangs of hunger, announces that she is leaving with Prabhat and Mayur to get something to eat. Avinash then urges Divya to go home as well, but Divya refuses, wanting to stay by Devansh’s side. Karishma, meanwhile, sees this as an opportunity to execute her own plans, her mind racing with schemes.
The scene transitions to a temple, where Vasudha is deep in prayer, seeking guidance from a sage about how to save Devansh’s life. The sage, wise and enigmatic, tells her that even mothers must undergo tests alongside their husbands. He explains that true sacrifice comes from the heart, and he implies that Chandrika will need to make significant sacrifices for her child. Vasudha, desperate for answers, presses the sage for more specifics on what Chandrika must do.
The sage reveals that Chandrika will need to beg at 11 different houses and prepare prasad (offering) using the items she collects from these homes. He looks at Vasudha, gauging her reaction, and asks if she believes Chandrika can fulfill this daunting task. Vasudha, filled with faith, assures the sage that Chandrika will do whatever it takes to save her son.
As the sage hands Vasudha a small container of ash, he instructs her to apply it to Devansh’s forehead. He reminds her that starting tomorrow, she must observe a Nirjala Vrat (a fast without water) to further aid in Devansh’s recovery. After the sage departs, Vasudha is left contemplating how to communicate this heavy burden to Chandrika. She realizes that it is crucial to share this information, especially since it concerns Devansh’s life. With a determined heart, she sets off to find Chandrika.
Back in the hospital, Karishma’s thoughts turn dark as she reflects on the situation. She coldly muses that if the tempo driver had done his job properly, they would have already conducted Devansh’s last rites. Avinash, on an errand to buy medicines at the nurse’s request, is unaware of Karishma’s sinister thoughts. Karishma senses that this is the perfect opportunity to rid herself of Devansh once and for all.
Vasudha arrives at the hospital and seeks out Divya, asking if she has seen Chandrika. Karishma, overhearing this, interjects with a taunt, questioning Vasudha’s faith in the sage’s words. Vasudha, undeterred, asserts that devotion holds real power and that she believes in the sage’s guidance.
Karishma scoffs, insisting that Chandrika will never undertake such a demanding task. However, Divya counters Karishma’s negativity, arguing that a mother’s love knows no bounds and that Chandrika will do anything to save her child. Karishma snaps at Divya, telling her to stay out of family matters, and dismisses Vasudha, who is determined to apply the ash to Devansh’s forehead.
With a heavy heart, Vasudha enters the ICU, where she kneels beside Devansh’s bed. Apologizing to him, she expresses her deep remorse, claiming that her actions contributed to his current state. She firmly believes that her and Chandrika’s devotion and sacrifices will lead to his healing.
Meanwhile, in Devansh’s room, Chandrika is overwhelmed with emotion. As she enters, she hallucinates seeing Devansh standing before her, calling his name in desperation. Prabhat rushes in, alarmed by her outburst, and asks what is wrong. Chandrika, still in a daze, insists that she saw Devansh there, her heart breaking at the thought of losing him. Sarika, dismissive and cruel, suggests that Chandrika is losing her sanity. Mayur quickly defends Chandrika, telling Sarika to be quiet. Prabhat comforts Chandrika, reminding her that Devansh is in the hospital and that they must remain hopeful.
As Vasudha applies the ash to Devansh’s forehead, she does so with a prayerful heart, convinced that her and Chandrika’s fasting and devotion will bring about a miracle. She reassures herself that Devansh will recover, bolstered by the strength of their combined faith.
The episode concludes on this poignant note, leaving viewers anxious about the outcome of Chandrika’s trials and the fate of Devansh, as hope and despair intertwine in the hospital’s somber atmosphere.
