The episode begins with high tension at the hospital. Chachu (Raghav’s brother) stands over a hospitalized and unconscious Padma, vowing to protect her. He notes that the situation is changing and a new twist is coming, revealing that Bade Bhaiya (Raghav) has been saved by Anjali and has received bail. A nurse tries to get him to leave, but he refuses, determined to stand guard outside Padma’s room to ensure no harm comes to her. He vows that not even a fly will get past him, emphasizing that Padma is like a daughter to their family and he cannot accept the attack on her.
Anjali, a successful criminal lawyer, rushes into the hospital, looking distressed. She finds Padma’s room and is visibly shaken but relieved to see her alive. Chachu informs her that Padma is not out of danger and has been attacked for a second time, a deadly assault.
The doctor arrives and confirms the severity of the situation. He gives full credit to Chachu for saving Padma’s life, stating that if he hadn’t arrived at the right moment, the outcome would have been tragic. Anjali, now in full lawyer mode, turns her fury on the police constable assigned to guard the room, questioning his negligence and demanding to know who entered the cabin. She then asks the doctor for the CCTV footage. The doctor explains that while there is footage from the corridor, the area is too crowded to easily identify the culprit. Anjali, however, confidently states that as a criminal lawyer, she can identify a criminal simply by their body language and gait.
Just then, the lead investigating officer, Inspector Pankaj Purohit, enters the room. Anjali immediately confronts him, her voice filled with accusation and anger. She reminds him of his biased stance in court and challenges his investigation. “If Raghav Singh Rajput attacked Padma at home,” she questions, “then who attacked her here in the hospital while he is in custody?”
Inspector Purohit, defensive and dismissive, accuses Anjali of having “tunnel vision” because of her personal relationship with the accused. He claims to be an honest officer simply doing his duty, not “sycophantic” to a criminal lawyer. Chachu tries to intervene, highlighting Anjali’s history of fighting for the helpless, but Purohit remains stubborn. He asserts that he trusts only his own senses and investigation, not the advice of a lawyer.
Anjali challenges him directly, stating that his investigation is flawed and that he is being misled. The conflict escalates, with Purohit accusing Anjali of defending her father-in-law out of familial duty, and Anjali retorting that he is the one who is failing to see the truth. She challenges him, declaring that he will lose this case.
The scene shifts to the Rajput family home, where the women are anxiously praying before the deity for Raghav’s safe return. They are worried as there is no news about his bail. The episode ends on a cliffhanger as they hear the door open. They all rush out to see Anjali and Aman standing at the entrance, their faces grim, leaving the family to wonder about Raghav’s fate.
