She then declares that Ruhi will participate with Kiara, and Charu will take part with Abhir. Abhir asks to be fed after Kiara, as he prefers to eat after his wife. Charu, feeling that Abhir rushed into marriage without waiting for her, gets annoyed. The women scold their children. Abhir decides to tutor them, and the women agree to send their kids to Abhira once she helps them. Abhira, believing Armaan will secure a job, conceals the pain from her hurt foot.
