Anushka finally answers Malishka’s persistent calls, only to be met with frustration over her lack of response. She explains that living alone has burdened her with numerous responsibilities, making it difficult to stay available. Malishka quickly shifts the conversation, revealing that Ayush and Shalu are out shopping for wedding jewelry. Sensing an opportunity, she manipulates Anushka by reminding her of how Shalu and Lakshmi have wronged her in the past. Stirred by these words, Anushka vows to take drastic action to sabotage Ayush and Shalu’s marriage, indirectly aiding Malishka’s goal of keeping Rishi and Lakshmi apart.
At the jewelry store, Rishi, Ayush, Lakshmi, and Shalu browse through selections for the upcoming wedding. While Ayush and Shalu focus on their choices, Rishi encourages Lakshmi to pick something for herself. However, she declines, suggesting instead that he should buy something for Malishka before walking away, her emotions carefully concealed.
Meanwhile, Anushka hatches a dangerous plan to frame Shalu and Lakshmi for theft. Neel, upon learning of her intentions, warns her that planting stolen jewelry in their bags is a reckless move and refuses to be a part of it. Undeterred, Anushka decides to infiltrate the jewelry store disguised as a security guard. Later, Kiran confronts her about ignoring Malishka’s calls, but Anushka confidently assures her that she has already spoken to Malishka and is committed to making sure Shalu and Lakshmi end up behind bars.
Elsewhere, Balwinder overhears Mukesh discussing Malishka’s sprained ankle and, seizing the chance to get closer to her, sneaks into the Oberoi mansion under the guise of checking on her well-being.
Back at the jewelry store, Rishi notices Lakshmi’s distant behavior and tries to get her to open up. However, she dismisses his concerns and firmly asks him not to follow her. Meanwhile, Ayush approaches Rishi, seemingly ready to share crucial information. Lakshmi, worried that he might reveal her private conversation with Neelam, quickly intervenes and redirects Rishi’s attention by suggesting they select an engagement ring for Ayush and Shalu.
As they browse, Rishi finds himself struggling to pick the perfect ring. He proposes calling Ayush and Shalu for their input, but Lakshmi insists they use her hand as a reference since her ring size matches Shalu’s. Agreeing, Rishi places a ring on Lakshmi’s finger and remarks on how perfect it looks on her. However, when she tries to remove it, the ring gets stuck, leading to an unexpected and lighthearted moment between them.
Meanwhile, at the Oberoi mansion, Balwinder manages to sneak into Malishka’s room, eager to check on her and the baby. However, Malishka tries to dismiss him quickly. Just as he prepares to leave, an unexpected complication arises—Neelam and Karishma suddenly enter the room, catching sight of an unfamiliar man inside.
