In today’s episode, the atmosphere is tense as Dadu approaches Geetanjali with a sincere expression of remorse. He apologizes for not consulting her before making arrangements for her engagement. Geetanjali, feeling a mix of frustration and disappointment, responds that Dadu should have considered her feelings and opinions before planning such an important event. She emphasizes that while Maira may dream of a union between her and Arman, it is essential that Arman himself is equally invested in the relationship.
Dadu, sensing Geetanjali’s reluctance, asks her directly if she does not love Arman. Geetanjali takes a moment to reflect before replying, her voice steady but firm. She explains that love cannot be one-sided; Arman must reciprocate her feelings for their relationship to flourish. Just then, Arman enters the conversation, requesting Geetanjali not to hold any grudges against Dadu and Maira. He understands the pressure they are under but hopes to ease the tension.
Maira, feeling guilty for the situation, steps in to apologize to Geetanjali. Geetanjali, despite her frustrations, finds it hard to stay angry with Maira for long, acknowledging the genuine intentions behind her actions. Dadu, observing the dynamics between the three, urges Arman to reconsider his stance on the engagement. He reminds Arman that he harbors feelings for Geetanjali and shouldn’t resign himself to a life of solitude when love is within reach.
Meanwhile, in another part of town, Kajal attempts to engage Krish in conversation, but he is preoccupied with his mobile phone. Frustrated, Kajal expresses her concerns about Krish’s fiancée changing the wedding planners for their upcoming nuptials. Krish, however, defends his fiancée’s choices, urging Kajal to support her decisions. Kajal, skeptical, questions whether Krish is genuinely in love or merely treating the relationship as a business arrangement.
Krish, feeling defensive, retorts that Kajal has no authority to question him, especially since she continues to tolerate Sanjay’s erratic behavior. Just then, Sanjay tries to interject into their conversation, and Krish, irritated, tells him to be quiet, redirecting his focus back to his fiancée. The tension in the air is palpable as the dynamics of their relationships become increasingly complicated.
Meanwhile, Abhira, Vidya, and Kaveri are enjoying a celebratory outing at a local restaurant. Their laughter fills the air, creating a warm atmosphere. However, their joy is interrupted when a client named Arman approaches Abhira. Upon recognizing him, Abhira’s demeanor shifts; she refuses to take on his case, her discomfort evident. She quickly apologizes to Kaveri and Vidya, trying to maintain the lighthearted mood despite the awkward encounter.
Arman, reflecting on the encounter, wonders if Abhira remembers him. He assumes she must be thriving in her new life at the Poddar house, noting her success as a lawyer. Meanwhile, Maira accidentally hurts her foot, and Arman instinctively offers to take her to the hospital. Maira, however, reassures him, saying she’s an adult now and can manage minor injuries on her own. Her independence shines through, and Arman respects her decision, although he remains concerned.
Back at the table, Vidya and Kaveri are insistent that Abhira should eat something, but she stubbornly refuses, lost in her thoughts. In a bid to help, Vidya calls Madhav, hoping he can persuade Abhira to eat. Madhav, upon hearing Abhira’s name, becomes emotional as he gazes at a family photo, reminiscing about his separation from Vidya and the happiness they once shared. His longing is palpable, adding a layer of complexity to the unfolding events.
As the evening progresses, Kaveri, Abhira, and Vidya decide to spend quality time together, trying to lift Abhira’s spirits. When the electricity suddenly goes out, Kaveri suggests playing a game to distract them from the darkness. The laughter and playful competition help to lighten the mood, allowing Abhira and Vidya to momentarily forget their worries.
The episode concludes with a gripping precap: an inspector approaches Abhira, bringing news about Pookie.

The inspector reveals that he found the chain with a person sitting nearby, and Abhira’s shock is evident as she turns to see who it is.
