The episode begins with a heated confrontation. Kaki (Ishwari) is determined to take Savi’s children away to the US, packed and ready to leave. Savi pleads with her, begging her not to separate her from her children. She stands firm, declaring that no one, not even the law, can take her children from her because she is their mother and legal guardian.
Tara enters the argument, mocking Savi and questioning how she plans to stop them. She viciously accuses Savi of having an affair with Dr. Neil (Ishaan) and calls her a characterless woman who is unfit to be a mother, especially so soon after her husband’s death. Dr. Neil tries to defend Savi, but Tara angrily tells him to stay out of their family matter. Just then, Shrichand arrives and joins the fray. He belittles Savi, pointing out that she is suspended from her job and has no source of income to support her children.
In a stunning and completely unexpected move, Dr. Neil announces that he has a solution. He calmly walks to the small temple in the house, takes a pinch of vermilion (sindoor), and applies it to Savi’s forehead, declaring her his wife in front of the entire shocked family. He proclaims that she is no longer alone; she is Mrs. Savi Neil Pradhan, and he will take full responsibility for her and her children. Kaki, Tara, and Shrichand are left speechless and horrified by this development.
The drama escalates further when the police arrive with an arrest warrant for Shrichand, charging him with money laundering, kidnapping, and blackmail. Cornered and enraged, Shrichand grabs Savi’s young daughter, Pari, and holds her hostage at gunpoint.
The climax of the episode is a torrent of revelations and tragedy. Shrichand screams that his actions are all for revenge. He reveals a dark secret from the past: Savi’s late husband’s father, Rajendra Thakkar, gave false testimony against his father, Mahendra Goyal, which led to his imprisonment and eventual death. Shrichand’s mother died from the shock, leaving him an orphan. He confesses that he orchestrated everything to ruin the Thakkar family. As Neil and Savi plead for Pari’s life, Neil lunges at Shrichand to save the child. A desperate struggle for the gun ensues, and a shot rings out. Neil is shot in the neck and collapses, bleeding profusely. The episode ends with everyone screaming in horror and Savi crying out Neil’s name in utter shock and despair.
In the precap for the next episode, the family is at the hospital. Kaki’s mother confronts a heartbroken Savi and viciously slaps her, blaming her for Neil’s critical condition and calling her a bad omen.
