In today’s episode, Arman reflects on the sacrifices of a mother, highlighting that while mothers give their lives for their children, Vidya has given up her entire world. Kaveri defends Vidya, pointing out that thanks to her, Arman has found a home, a family, schooling, and a promising career. However, Arman feels differently, accusing Kaveri of treating him poorly and undermining his confidence instead of adopting him fully. He expresses frustration at Kaveri, describing her gestures—like giving him sweets—to manipulate his feelings and question his worth.
When Arman confronts Vidya about her supposed motherhood, he brings up the curse she cast on him at his wedding. He mentions that he keeps her picture in his wallet, adding an emotional layer to the argument. Abhira urges him to remain calm as Arman expresses his exhaustion over Kaveri’s so-called favors, recalling how they have weighed on him since the beginning. In a fit of anger, he accuses Vidya of using him to stay close to Madhav and declares his intention to tear up her picture. Kaveri counters, asserting that he can’t really let go of Vidya, affirming her role as Madhav’s wife and Arman’s mother, while Arman insists that Shivani is his true mother.
Kaveri implores Arman to reconsider his decisions, warning him that siding with Shivani means losing his identity. As Shivani attempts to intervene, Madhav encourages her to let Arman decide. Ultimately, Arman chooses to surrender his name and identity, rejecting Kaveri’s favors and removing both his and Abhira’s engagement rings. Arman takes a stand for Shivani, declaring his frustration with the lies from Kaveri and Vidya.
Rohit challenges Arman, reminding him of the importance of family, but Arman counteracts this by citing the constant insults he and Abhira have endured. He states that they can only take so much before breaking and articulates his fatigue over trying to win the Poddar family’s approval. Manisha asserts that every family has problems but doesn’t abandon each other. To this, Arman responds that, as a guest, he is entitled to leave when he wishes, leaving Kaveri and Vidya shocked.
As the episode wraps up, Arman confides in Abhira about the challenges that lie ahead, with Abhira pledging her unwavering support.
**Precap:** Abhira surprises Arman with news about their new living arrangements, but he is taken aback by the untidy state of the room. Undeterred, Abhira expresses her determination to build a home together with Arman.
