The episode takes a dramatic turn when Rituraj arrives at Neil’s wedding and is completely stunned to see Teju as the bride. Equally shocked, Teju struggles to process Rituraj’s unexpected presence. Prachi cheerfully introduces Teju as Neil’s wife, while Neil casually introduces Rituraj as his brother, deepening the awkwardness. Later on, Nandini chats with Teju about Rituraj, describing him as the family’s charming flirt—someone who’s never taken love seriously and sees it as just a meaningless four-letter word. Meanwhile, Prachi and the others poke fun at Rituraj, claiming Teju is a better singer than he is, much to his annoyance.
When Neil invites Rituraj to stay for the post-wedding meal, he politely declines, saying he has an important meeting to attend. But as he tries to leave after congratulating Neil, the cousins surround him, reminding him of his promise to attend the wedding on time. Rituraj replies with biting sarcasm, calling Neil the “real player” for ending up with Teju after meeting her at a music concert. He confronts Teju for hiding the wedding from him, but she firmly reminds him that she had sent the invitation—he just chose to ignore it. Prachi steps in and explains that Neil was originally set to marry Juhi, who ran away, and Teju ended up as the bride. Hearing this, Rituraj makes up an excuse and quickly exits the scene, clearly shaken.
Later, Neil and Teju seek blessings from the family elders. Omi tries to comfort Teju, telling her that although things might feel unfair now, she will come to realize Neil’s true value with time. Teju then speaks to Lakshmi, remarking that she must be happy now that she’s leaving the house. But Lakshmi instead praises her for guiding Aditi and teaching her good behavior. Prajakta steps forward to apologize on behalf of her family, and Teju graciously forgives her, entrusting her with Aditi’s education.
When Teju goes to take blessings from Satish, he coldly turns away, clearly hurt by the fact that she married into the same family Juhi was supposed to. Still, he wishes her happiness before walking off. Deepali gently comforts Teju, urging her not to take Satish’s harsh words personally, as he’s still grieving over Juhi’s sudden disappearance. The episode ends with Teju and Neil beginning their new journey together, ready to face whatever lies ahead in their shared future.
