The episode begins with Nivedita pleading with Aarti not to defy Anjali. Raghav interrupts and questions Nivedita’s authority to speak. Nivedita reminds him that she is the daughter-in-law of the Rajput family, while Raghav insists that Aarti is the true daughter of that lineage.
Gaurav confronts Raghav and declares that he will go downstairs along with the rest of the family. He and Nivedita argue with Raghav and Vaibhav, accusing them of using Anjali’s name to go against her. Gaurav worries that Aarti’s actions might land her in jail.

Abhay steps in, assuring everyone that Anjali would never let Aarti be imprisoned. He insists that Aarti will make Anjali understand the sacred bond between a mother and daughter, as well as a daughter-in-law’s responsibilities. Nivedita challenges Abhay, questioning what duties Anjali herself has failed to fulfill.
When Nivedita taunts Abhay about his failed marriage, he angrily reveals that his wife Ginny left him for another man. Vaibhav cruelly comments that it was expected from someone of “dirty blood,” prompting Sadhika to remind him that Aarti shares that same blood.
Despite Gaurav and Nivedita’s protests, Raghav and the others leave for the Thakur mansion. Sadhika urgently calls Anjali, warning her to stop Aarti before the Griha Pravesh ritual begins. Anjali vows not to let Aarti break the law.
At the Thakur mansion, the family prepares for Mehek’s Griha Pravesh, warmly welcoming the Rajputs. Just as the ceremony is about to start, Anjali arrives and halts the proceedings. When Abhay tries to push her aside, she raises her hand and reminds him of his past ties to her sister.
Anjali sternly declares that the ritual violates the law and overturns the rice-filled Kalash, explaining its sanctity. She shocks everyone by saying the rice symbolizes trafficked women, leaving Mehek speechless. When Yuvraj tries to intervene, Anjali slaps him.
Moments later, Anjali receives a distressing call from Pankaj — Ravi’s condition has worsened. She warns the Rajputs that if Mehek doesn’t return home within an hour, both she and Yuvraj will be jailed. Anjali rushes to the hospital, where Ravi lies critical. As she pleads with him to survive and expose her husband’s killer, Ravi’s heart suddenly stops.
