The episode begins with a tense scene where Niti shows a man, Tyagi, a photo of an elderly woman, Sushma Kashyap, on her phone. She coldly confirms that she wants him to eliminate Sushma. Tyagi agrees to the job, assuring her it will be done, and advises her to leave the area for her own safety. Niti, looking determined, leaves the room, and Tyagi smirks, indicating the plan is in motion.
Meanwhile, in a lavishly decorated room, an elderly woman named Bebe is watching a news report. The report is about Sushma Kashyap receiving a prestigious business award. During her acceptance interview, Sushma announces that her grandson, Aditya, will now manage all her businesses and hotels, establishing him as her sole heir. Just then, Gurinder enters and is surprised to find Bebe watching TV. Bebe, with a knowing look, reveals that Niti didn’t win the award, but Sushma did. She excitedly explains that the marriage proposal Gurinder had brought for Niti was for Aditya Kashyap, who is now the heir to a massive fortune. However, Gurinder looks worried and cuts the conversation short, telling Bebe that Sanju is unwell. Bebe becomes concerned, and Gurinder says she has already called the doctor before rushing out to be with Sanju.
In another scene, Niti is seen anxiously waiting in her car. It’s night, and the stormy weather reflects her inner turmoil. She grows frustrated as she tries to call the hitman, Tyagi, but he doesn’t answer his phone. She mutters to herself about his initial confidence and current unavailability, deciding she has no choice but to wait for his call.
The scene shifts to the award function where Tyagi is stealthily moving through the venue. He pulls out a gun with a silencer and takes aim at Sushma Kashyap, who is interacting with her guests. However, the crowd makes it impossible for him to get a clear shot. As Sushma is about to leave, she is stopped by a woman named Kanika. Kanika informs her that the hostess told Preet (Parineet) to wait outside. Sushma is surprised and says she wanted to talk to her. She decides to head home and asks Kanika to send Parineet to her house. As Sushma departs, Tyagi realizes he has missed his opportunity and becomes visibly frustrated. He meets with an accomplice and explains that he missed the target. He tells the man that he has another urgent job to finish, or his own life will be in danger. He passes on Sushma’s details and tells his accomplice to handle it by staging an accident.
Outside, Kanika finds Parineet and relays Sushma’s message to meet her at home. Parineet is confused, thinking it’s a business meeting, but Kanika clarifies that Sushma wants to discuss a marriage proposal. This revelation leaves Parineet completely shocked. Meanwhile, Tyagi’s accomplice gets on a motorcycle and calls his boss, who is angry about the delay. The accomplice explains the situation and then hires a truck driver, getting into the goods carrier to chase down Sushma’s car. Niti, still in her car, finally gets a call from Tyagi, who tells her that her call is lucky because Sushma’s car is now in front of him. Niti demands to watch the event unfold on a video call, wanting to witness Sushma’s demise with her own eyes. The truck then begins to follow Sushma’s car, setting the stage for a tragic accident.
The episode ends with a sneak peek of the next episode, showing the truck speeding towards Sushma’s car, a sinister smile on Niti’s face as she watches, and Parineet and Sushma’s shocked expressions from inside their car, just moments before the devastating impact.
Review
This episode masterfully builds suspense, weaving together multiple storylines that are set to collide in a dramatic fashion. Niti’s transformation into a cold-blooded villain is chillingly effective, and her determination to see her plan through, even demanding a live video feed of the act, showcases the depths of her darkness. The contrast between her sinister plot and the seemingly normal events at the award function and Bebe’s home creates a palpable tension that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.
The performances were strong across the board. The actress playing Niti conveyed her character’s descent into villainy with a compelling intensity. The hitman, Tyagi, and his bumbling attempts also added a layer of dark, almost grim, humor to the otherwise tense proceedings. The introduction of the mistaken identity plot with Parineet being called for a marriage proposal instead of a business meeting is a classic, effective twist that adds another layer of complexity. The episode’s pacing was excellent, cutting between the different locations to heighten the sense of impending doom. The final moments, leading up to the crash, were expertly handled, leaving the audience with a heart-pounding cliffhanger.
