The episode begins with Lakshmi storming out of the room in anger. Rishi, after receiving a phone call, leaves. Malishka, upset, complains to Neelam, “How can Lakshmi talk to me like that?” Neelam advises her to ignore Lakshmi, reminding her that Lakshmi has acted this way before.
In her room, Lakshmi wonders how Malishka can deceive everyone. Just then, Shalu enters, informing her that Balwinder met Kiran. Lakshmi stops her, revealing that she already knows Balwinder was at the party. Kiran, overhearing their conversation, quickly leaves when Lakshmi notices her shadow moving toward the door.
Ayush tells Rishi that Lakshmi seems angry with Malishka, and her behavior has changed. He adds that he doesn’t know what’s happening. Rishi replies, “I don’t know either, but I feel like Lakshmi’s old love for me has returned.” Shalu then tells Lakshmi about Balwinder meeting Kiran. Lakshmi confirms, “I know. I found out that Malishka is carrying Balwinder’s child.” Shalu is left shocked.
Ayush tells Rishi that they’re missing something, but Rishi suggests they discuss it tomorrow since he just wants to be happy today. Ayush reminds him that they need to go shopping for the mehendi ceremony. Rishi teases Ayush and heads to the bathroom. Meanwhile, Shalu tells Lakshmi that they need to expose Malishka soon. However, Lakshmi replies, “This isn’t the right time.”
Kiran meets Malishka, warning her that Balwinder could become a big problem. She says, “Lakshmi thinks Balwinder came to meet her, but if she finds out the truth, we’re in trouble.” Lakshmi tells Shalu that she needs to gather proof to expose Malishka to everyone. Shalu agrees to help.
The next day, Ayush returns from jogging, and Shalu greets him with a “Good morning.” Ayush talks romantically with her, but Shalu teases him by saying Lakshmi is coming. Ayush quickly changes the topic, but Shalu laughs and says she was joking. Ayush insists he’s not afraid of anyone. Just then, Lakshmi arrives, and Ayush, flustered, asks Shalu to get ready for the shoot before rushing off.
Lakshmi tells Shalu that Ayush is cute and advises her, “I didn’t trust Rishi, but you shouldn’t repeat my mistake. Trust Ayush.” Shalu promises to love Ayush and never doubt him. She then invites Lakshmi to join them for shopping, but Lakshmi declines, saying she needs to stay home to keep an eye on Malishka. Shalu suggests they check what Malishka is up to. Lakshmi agrees, saying they might learn the truth if they get Malishka’s phone.
Meanwhile, Balwinder calls Malishka, demanding money. She refuses, but he pressures her. She disconnects the call and talks to Kiran, explaining what happened. Kiran advises her to deal with Balwinder calmly to avoid exposure. Malishka agrees.
Rishi and Ayush have a playful argument, and Rishi rushes to the washroom. Malishka, seeing cash on Rishi’s bed, considers stealing it to give to Balwinder.
