Today’s episode begins with Mihir returning home, where Noina immediately questions him about his whereabouts. She reminds him that it was Valentine’s Day a day they had planned to celebrate together. She recalls that he had promised to book a table and celebrate with her but instead he never showed up.
Noina reveals that he had booked a table at Element Restaurant and accuses him of reserving it for Tulsi. Mihir firmly denies the accusation and asks her what she thinks that if he booked a table Tulsi would simply show up to join him? He clearly states that he never made any reservation.
Noina insists that a booking confirmation message had arrived on his phone. Mihir questions how she knew about the message and accuses her of spying on him and checking his phone without permission. Noina defends herself saying the phone was lying on the table and she happened to see the message. She refuses to let him change the topic and demands to know for whom the table was booked.
Mihir maintains that he did not book any table and says he wants to find out who committed this fraud.
As the argument escalates Dev enters and admits that he booked the table using Mihir’s card. He explains that it was his and Saloni’s first Valentine’s Day so he made the reservation. Dev apologizes to Mihir for not informing him earlier.
Mihir tells Dev he should have clarified things sooner because Noina had created a huge scene over it. Noina then asks Dev why he did not come to the restaurant when she waited there until closing time. Dev reveals that he did not show up precisely because he saw Noina there. Since she was present at the restaurant he assumed Mihir might also arrive so he decided to leave and go elsewhere instead.
Mihir is shocked by Noina’s imagination and questions why she jumps to such conclusions. Noina emotionally explains that she had many expectations for the evening but ended up feeling humiliated sitting alone at the restaurant. Mihir asks why she did not call him. He explains that he was busy completing a consignment and later got stuck in traffic with Tulsi. He admits he genuinely feels bad about the situation. Noina apologizes and suggests they go out now but Mihir dismisses it saying they can try next year instead.
Mahashivratri Plans and Hidden Intentions
Mihir suddenly tells Noina to start preparations for Mahashivratri. Noina questions why as they have not celebrated it for the past six years. Mihir replies that this year they will observe it because Tulsi has returned. Noina silently absorbs this information.
Meanwhile Vaishnavi asks Tulsi why she returned late. Tulsi explains she was stuck in traffic. She says she is too tired to eat. Vaishnavi senses something is wrong and notices Tulsi looks upset but Tulsi brushes it off as exhaustion. Vaishnavi reminds her that a lot has happened recently and she has been handling everything alone. She suggests Tulsi take some rest or go on a short outing. Tulsi instead informs her that she will be fasting for Mahashivratri.
Vrinda and Angad learn that Babji has fixed the wedding date just two days away. Angad remarks that they will have to work quickly to manage everything. Vrinda worries about how all preparations will be completed in such a short time. Tulsi says it is about their daughter’s future, and Babji’s concerns are understandable. Angad comments that once the wedding happens Tulsi will not have to hide anything from Babji anymore.
Mihir calls Tulsi to inform her about Babji’s message regarding the wedding. Tulsi agrees that they should proceed. Mihir says he will inform Babji. He sarcastically remarks that Tulsi will have to prepare the most because she will once again have to act like his wife in front of everyone. Tulsi calmly says she will manage the act. Mihir abruptly ends the call while Noina watches them suspiciously. Mihir assures Noina there is nothing to worry about and asks her to accompany him to share the good news.
Mihir’s Physiotherapy Session
During physiotherapy, Vrinda asks Mihir how he feels. Mihir jokes that she is the physiotherapist she should tell him. Vrinda says he is improving as per expectations.
Mihir expresses his desire to walk without support. Vrinda is shocked and reminds him that she advised him to follow specific exercises only and not take risks. Mihir insists he wants progress and cannot remain dependent forever. Vrinda scolds him saying he should not take unnecessary risks. Mihir informs her that she will not be conducting sessions for a few days because he is going to Surat for the wedding.
Vrinda is startled by how he knows. She quickly lies saying she overheard wedding preparations being discussed. Mihir says that one day he will introduce her to his family. Vrinda internally panics, thinking if Mihir ever learns her true identity he would never let her face his family.
Mihir Tulsi Journey to Surat
Dev and Parth travel to Surat with Dev expressing that his wedding should go viral. Mihir arrives with Tulsi. Mihir remarks that it is time for everyone to see the happy married couple. Tulsi responds seriously that they are building a new relationship on the foundation of lies. Mihir tells her she is overthinking the wedding is between Dev and Saloni and Saloni is mature enough to understand everything so technically nothing is wrong.
Tulsi prays near a sacred Tulsi plant asking for strength. She says she has come with good intentions for the children’s future but her heart feels heavy because of her and Mihir’s relationship. She seeks forgiveness and blessings from Babji and the family.
Babji Revealed Divorce Papers
Tulsi and Mihir go to seek Babji’s blessings but he withdraws his feet. Everyone is shocked. Mihir asks if everything is alright. Babji says he does not understand what blessing he should give Tulsi. He then shows them divorce papers. Mihir and Tulsi are stunned.
Noina and Suchi’s Conspiracy
In a flashback Suchi expresses frustration that Tulsi constantly takes Mihir’s name. She points out that Mihir neither celebrated Valentine’s Day nor Mahashivratri with Noina and that in Surat too he would act as Tulsi’s husband.
Noina declares that it is time for checkmate. She admits Tulsi made a mistake by refusing divorce earlier. She plans to expose Mihir and Tulsi’s truth to Babji before they even reach Surat. She predicts that once the truth explodes like a bomb, the wedding will be canceled Tulsi will be blamed, and misunderstandings will force Mihir toward her. She is ready to lose Shantiniketan if she cannot have Mihir.
Babji Feels Betrayed
In the present Babji accuses Mihir and Tulsi of betrayal. He says he trusted them blindly and was trying to unite the families while they were lying to him. He recalls that Shakuntala had warned him about their divorce. Babji questions Tulsi directly and asks whether the court order is real. Tulsi admits they are getting divorced.
He asks if everything their husband-wife act was false. Tulsi calls it a lie. Babji declares that relationships built on lies cannot survive and calls off the wedding immediately. Tulsi pleads with him reminding him that he considers her his daughter and asking for two minutes to explain. Babji refuses to listen and walks away.
Babji says if Tulsi needed time or Shantiniketan she could have spoken honestly instead of lying. Gaurav states that he cannot give his daughter into a family where relationships hold no value.
Gaurav’s wife reveals that Mihir is allegedly having an affair with Noina and that she is staying with him. Gaurav declares this the most shameful part they were ready to send their daughter into a house where Mihir lives with another woman under the same roof. Everyone is left stunned.
Precap: Mihir says he was about to tell Babji the truth. Babji accuses Tulsi of breaking not only his trust but also Govardhan and Amba’s faith. Tulsi explains she had no other way to protect the family legacy and did not want Dev and Saloni’s relationship to break.
Gaurav firmly announces that the wedding will not happen. Shobha wonders whether the other woman accusation was deliberately planted by Noina.
