Meanwhile, Aniruddh confides in Lalon, stating that Jhanak doesn’t want him happy and that he can’t return home because of Arshi’s complaints. He admits he plans to do things that Jhanak would never approve of, including drinking alcohol. Lalon urges him to go home, but Aniruddh refuses, deciding to drink to numb the pain. He tells Lalon to go home to Apu, but Lalon insists on staying with him.
At a bar, the host announces a special surprise, introducing Laila. Jhanak enters, and the crowd cheers, clapping and whistling as they see her.

At the Bose house, Anjana asks Choton about the latest news, and he tells her that Jhanak has been released after the truth prevailed. Anjana is relieved and thanks God. Choton mentions that Aniruddh will bring Jhanak back, and questions Arshi’s conscience. Shubhankar tells Choton not to provoke Arshi, but Bablu steps in, telling her that Jhanak went to jail unjustly and was released because the case was false. He taunts Arshi, and Shubhankar asks him to stop.
Mimi reveals that she saw Arshi and Siddarth together in the cafeteria, and Arshi defends herself, claiming they were discussing her program.

Aniruddh asks Jhanak to come home, but she mocks him, saying she’ll earn plenty of money and doesn’t need to return to his house. She taunts him for orchestrating her life. Aniruddh, confused and hurt, tells her he doesn’t understand her actions.
A customer demands that Aniruddh leave, and Jhanak tells him to get off the stage. Chirag pushes Aniruddh, and Jhanak claims she doesn’t know him.

The boss shoves Aniruddh away.
Back at the Bose house, Shubhankar notes that Aniruddh is losing control, and Bipasha mentions she saw Jhanak leave with a car while Aniruddh waited for her. Mrinalini tells Bipasha not to forget that Jhanak once helped her. Choton warns Bipasha to focus on her own life. Mrinalini suggests that Jhanak has plenty of reasons to stay away from Aniruddh. Arshi confidently declares that Jhanak won’t return. Choton questions her certainty, but Arshi insists Jhanak knows she’ll have to leave the house if she returns.
At home, Apu waits anxiously for Jhanak and Lalon. She asks Anuradha to call Lalon, who informs her that Jhanak has run away, and Aniruddh is looking for her.
