The episode begins with Choton’s baraat arriving at the wedding venue, where Mrinalini’s mother warmly greets him. Apu invites Jhanak to see Mrinalini, and she agrees. Anjana inquires about Mrinalini’s readiness with her mother. Her mother assures her that she is. Tanuja remarks that after marriage, Mrinalini will have to balance work and family, to which her mother confidently responds that she will manage both. She then takes a jab at Bipasha, stating that she has heard Bipasha doesn’t contribute to household responsibilities. Offended, Bipasha questions whether Mrinalini’s mother knows about her background. Mrinalini’s mother dismisses the need to know and reminds Tanuja how her life changed due to Shubhankar. She then leaves, causing Tanuja to remark that she now understands why Mrinalini has such a strong personality. Bipasha suggests they should teach Mrinalini’s mother a lesson.
When Apu and Jhanak go to Mrinalini, she gives Jhanak a warm hug and insists that she would have been upset if he hadn’t been able to attend her wedding. Jhanak, however, expresses her inability to make independent decisions like Mrinalini. The latter assures her that she has every right to take her own decisions. Rumi, on the other hand, says that Arshi is alone at home, but Mimi reminds her that Dadi is taking care of her. Mrinalini advises Jhanak to enjoy the wedding.
Elsewhere, Anirudh teases Choton about whether he’s feeling nervous. Choton admits that even though he already knows Mrinalini well, the sight of the wedding mandap makes him slightly nervous. He is reassured by Anirudh that this is only the beginning, and he learns that the varmala, or garland exchange, is about to occur. Mrinalini makes her entrance, and her father inquires about Dadi. Tanuja informs him that Dadi is staying back to take care of Arshi. Choton and Mrinalini exchange garlands. Meanwhile, Jhanak stumbles, and Anirudh instinctively catches her. They share an intense eyelock.
At the same time, Arshi attempts to call Anirudh, but he doesn’t respond. She is frustrated and wonders if Anirudh and Jhanak are enjoying the wedding together. She also laments that no one is concerned about her. She then calls Jhanak but receives no response either.
Bipasha notices Anirudh and Jhanak’s moment and angrily shouts Jhanak’s name, snapping them back to reality. She immediately calls Arshi and informs her about what she saw. Hearing this, Arshi becomes furious and disconnects the call. Bipasha then confronts Anirudh, telling him that Arshi had tried to reach him.
Anirudh steps aside and calls Arshi back. Arshi, in an emotional outburst, scolds him, accusing him of ignoring her. Anirudh, frustrated, tells her she is mentally torturing him. Arshi vows to teach Jhanak a lesson, but Anirudh warns her not to ruin Jhanak’s mood. Arshi then reminds him that he is about to become a father and should start behaving responsibly. Losing patience, Anirudh tells her he has no time for her nonsense and hangs up.
Jhanak, feeling uneasy, asks Anirudh to arrange a car for her so she can go check on Arshi. Anirudh dismisses the idea, urging her to enjoy the wedding, reminding her that Dadi is already there with Arshi.
Meanwhile, at Anindo’s house, he taunts Jhimli for wanting a maid, saying she was practically a maid at her own house. Anindo’s father instructs him to hand over his money for safekeeping, but Anindo protests, saying his father would just put it in the bank. Jhimli reminds Anindo that he had promised to buy jewelry with that money. Anindo insists he will, but his mother interrupts, ordering Jhimli to cook, while his father demands tea.
Jhimli tells Anindo she needs to change, and he promises to buy her a new outfit. However, upon entering the kitchen, Jhimli is shocked to find it in a filthy state. Meanwhile, Anindo’s father praises Anindo for bringing in 50 lakhs, subtly revealing his materialistic attitude. As Jhimli serves tea, she begins to have doubts about Anindo’s honesty but still convinces herself that he wouldn’t betray her.
Back at the wedding, Shrishti approaches Jhanak, complimenting her. She insists that Jhanak doesn’t need to leave to check on Arshi and should stay to enjoy the event. Jhanak, however, argues that Arshi is alone and needs her. At this moment, Anirudh supports Jhanak, but Shrishti shockingly suggests that if Anirudh is so concerned about Jhanak, he should just marry her instead. Both Jhanak and Anirudh are stunned by the suggestion. Jhanak, visibly disturbed, questions how Shrishti could even say such a thing. She firmly states that she would never break Arshi’s married life and walks away. At the same time, Arshi falls from the stairs at home, and Dadi rushes to her aid.
