In the latest episode of Mangal Lakshmi, emotions run high as Mangal continues to display grace amid turmoil.
At the hospital, she gently informs Sunita that Neel is out of danger and reassures her that the bills have been paid.
Handing over Neel’s phone, Mangal softly says, “I’m a mother too—I understand your pain.”
Before leaving, she reminds Sunita to care for herself and Neel, unaware of the storm of guilt consuming her.

Once Mangal leaves, Sunita breaks down completely, tormented by the memory of swapping Neel and Ishana at birth sixteen years ago.

Back home, Mangal faces Adit’s fury. He scolds her for missing his calls and mocks her for being careless after losing Kapil’s support.
Mangal calmly explains that the dhaba fire was caused by a child’s prank with crackers, but Adit refuses to believe her.

Shanti praises Mangal’s independence and scolds Adit for his arrogance.
When Adit threatens to call the police on Neel, Mangal pleads for compassion, saying, “I’m a mother—I understand.”
Just as tensions begin to ease, young Akshat suddenly clutches his stomach in pain after eating Sowmya’s laddoos.
The family panics as Adit rushes to him, while a shadowy figure secretly watches Mangal’s home, hinting at more danger ahead.
