The episode begins with tension as the boss orders Aniruddh to leave quietly, but Lalon steps in, offering to take Aniruddh away. The boss reveals that he knows Aniruddh was behind Jhanak’s arrival. Aniruddh and Lalon are stunned by this revelation. Jhanak, caught in the middle, denies knowing Aniruddh or Lalon, leaving them both in confusion. Lalon urges Aniruddh to leave, but Aniruddh promises to return for Jhanak.
As Aniruddh and Lalon leave, Jhanak wonders if Aniruddh came to see her dance and if Bipasha had orchestrated the entire situation to hurt him. Soon after, Aniruddh returns with the police. The boss tries to defend himself, claiming he has the proper license, but Aniruddh insists that Jhanak was brought there against her will. The police inspector questions Jhanak, and she tearfully admits that Aniruddh is her life, her everything. Lalon begs her to tell the truth, and Jhanak finally confirms that she’s being held against her will. Aniruddh passionately tells the inspector to take Jhanak with him, claiming she belongs with him.
With the situation escalating, the police inspector warns the boss, telling him not to force anyone into such a position again. As Aniruddh comforts Jhanak, she breaks down, revealing she was trapped. The police officer steps in, telling the boss that he’s not allowed to keep her, and Aniruddh finally takes Jhanak with him.
Meanwhile, Apu grows suspicious of Jhanak’s disappearance and discusses it with Anuradha. She contemplates filing a missing person case, believing that Arshi and Shubhankar could be involved, but Anuradha cautions that they don’t have evidence.

Back at the Bose house, Bipasha is frustrated that Aniruddh has taken Jhanak, expressing confusion over how he managed to find her. Arshi is upset, feeling betrayed by Aniruddh’s actions, but Bipasha continues to stir the pot, claiming Jhanak is out to seek revenge on Arshi. Arshi, heartbroken, vows to take action against Aniruddh and Jhanak.
Meanwhile, Aniruddh brings Jhanak to his friend’s house, where he opens up about the decisions he’s made. He reveals that he intends to divorce Arshi, saying that her focus on her career has made their relationship untenable. He insists that Jhanak is his love and that Arshi is just his duty. Jhanak, though clearly conflicted, tells him that she can’t break up a family. She insists that not all wishes can come true, and although she deeply cares for him, she can’t be the one to destroy someone else’s life.
Aniruddh, desperate, asks Jhanak if she loves him more than Arshi. He presses her to marry him, but Jhanak refuses, telling him that not all dreams can be realized. She insists he must not leave his wife. Aniruddh, heartbroken, hugs Jhanak and pleads with her to understand that he can’t live with the pain anymore. But Jhanak remains firm in her decision, urging him to go back to his wife.

He accuses Bipasha of being the mastermind behind everything. Choton steps in, advising Aniruddh not to return home and scolding Bipasha for her manipulation. Aniruddh then tells Arshi that she can meet him and Jhanak if she wants to talk.
