Today’s episode begins with Vishaka trying to manipulate Dhairya against Mannat. She claims that Mannat can never be a truly responsible person and says that Dhairya must be feeling hurt because of her actions.
Dhairya replies that a person only understands another person’s pain when they themselves have experienced the same kind of pain in life. He says Vishaka knows very well that she is not as important to Vikrant as Neetu and Mannat are. Vishaka angrily responds that she does not need his concern and can take care of herself. Dhairya tells her that she should worry about her own relationship instead. He explains that his relationship with Mannat was never built on betrayal or lies but her relationship with Vikrant is based on falsehood and the day that truth shakes their bond everything will collapse. He also says that when he leaves this place with his wife and daughter he will not need anyone’s permission.
At that moment Bunty arrives with shocking news. He informs Dhairya that Dua is missing and he believes she might be in danger.
Mannat and Vikrant’s Playful Moment
Meanwhile Mannat splashes water on Vikrant and tells him that his fiancée Yashika must be angry with him. Vikrant replies that he is angry too but if Mannat wants to keep being angry with him it does not matter to him.
When Mannat tries to leave Vikrant holds her hand and stops her. He tries to splash water on her but Mannat throws the water back at him and starts laughing. Vikrant loses his balance and both of them fall down laughing together.
Vikrant is still holding Mannat’s hand and eventually falls asleep due to the intoxication. Mannat wakes him up and helps him stand. When Vikrant asks why they are there Mannat explains that he was intoxicated with bhaang and refused to let go of her hand so she brought him there.
Dhairya Reveals That Dua Is Missing
At that moment Dhairya arrives while searching for Dua. Mannat hears him calling her name and immediately runs to him. She asks what happened and Dhairya tells her that Dua is missing. Mannat is shocked and panicked. Meanwhile Dua is shown unconscious and trapped inside a freezer struggling to survive.
Vikrant Promises Mannat
Mannat becomes extremely worried. Vikrant consoles her and promises that he will help find Dua. He immediately orders Kumar to contact all the staff and start searching for the child.
Soon Aishwarya and others arrive. Aishwarya asks if Dua is really missing. Mannat angrily tells her to stop acting and reveal where Dua is. She questions how Mezbani’s security can be so weak and says Vikrant must bring her daughter back. Aishwarya responds that Mannat cannot accuse them for her daughter’s disappearance and cannot blame Mezbani either. Vikrant asks Aishwarya to understand Mannat’s situation but Aishwarya says she is fed up with Mannat’s constant drama. She claims that ever since Mannat arrived there has been a new issue every day.
Aishwarya adds that during the competition the organizers were responsible for the children but now the competition is over so parents are responsible for their own children. She points out that many other families and children are present yet only Mannat’s daughter is missing. She then questions Mannat about where she was when Dua disappeared.
At that moment Mannat remembers she was handling Vikrant because he was intoxicated.
Vishaka and Yashika Accuse Mannat
Vishaka immediately says that Mannat was with Vikrant trying to break his engagement. Hearing this Mannat feels guilty and thinks that if she had stayed with Dua this might not have happened.
Yashika also supports Vishaka. She says that other parents were with their children but Mannat was busy playing Holi with her ex-lover Vikrant. She accuses Mannat of desperately trying to get Vikrant’s attention and declares that Mannat is not a good mother. Vikrant becomes furious and orders Yashika to stop. He says he will not tolerate a single wrong word against Mannat. He firmly says that a mother is worried about her child and instead of helping her they are blaming her. Vikrant adds that Mannat was not with Dua because she was with him so the responsibility is his. He declares that if any child goes missing at Mezbani it becomes his responsibility and from now on finding Dua is his duty.
Vikrant then orders Kumar to inform the police and bring the best team to find Dua saying that Dua is like family to him. He reassures Mannat that she should not worry.
Bunty Reveals Mallika conspircy
Bunty suddenly remembers something important. He tells everyone that Mallika spoke to Dua earlier. He explains that Yuvi wanted to apologize to Dua and Mallika told dua to meet him. Dua went to meet Yuvi after Mallika insisted. Mallika immediately denies everything and calls Bunty a liar.
Vikrant asks Bunty if he was really with Dua and Bunty confirms it. Yuvi becomes scared. Vikrant questions Yuvi about what happened after Dua came to meet him but Yuvi remains silent. Mallika claims that she never even went near Dua and Bunty is lying. Yashika supports Mallika and says Mallika was with her the entire time so Bunty must be confused.
However Bunty insists he is telling the truth.
Dhairya and Mannat Search Desperately for Dua
Dhairya angrily says that they are wasting time arguing and asks Mannat to come search with him. While searching everywhere Mannat breaks down and blames Dhairya for not paying enough attention to Dua. She fears that if something happens to her daughter she will never forgive herself.
Dhairya becomes emotional and shouts that Dua is his daughter too. He explains that he left Dua briefly because he thought Mannat might be uncomfortable with Vikrant so he planned to take her home. He regrets that instead of worrying about Mannat he should have focused only on his daughter.
Vikrant Checked CCTV Footage
Vikrant apologizes to both Mannat and Dhairya, saying that all of this happened because someone mixed bhaang in his drink. He assures them that he did not do anything intentionally. He also says that if Dua is Dhairya’s daughter she is family to him and he will do everything to find her. Mannat and Dhairya also apologize to each other.
Mannat then suspects that Aishwarya might be behind this and asks Dhairya to check the CCTV footage. Kumar informs them that the CCTV recordings are ready and Mannat, Dhairya and Vikrant rush to the CCTV room.
Meanwhile Aishwarya smirks and thinks that even if they are smart she is smarter because the freezer area is not visible in the CCTV cameras.
Dua Struggles to Survive in the Freezer
Inside the freezer Dua cries for help.
Aishwarya is confident that no one will find Dua because the freezer location is not visible in the CCTV cameras. she notices Dua’s shoes nearby and plans to use them to mislead Mannat so that she never reaches the child.
Dua remembers Dhairya’s advice that true strength lies in protecting oneself rather than attacking others. She recalls that in extreme cold one must cover the head so she uses a plastic sheet nearby to protect herself from the cold. She also sees the protective sacred thread Vikrant tied on her wrist and prays to God that since Vikrant tied it for her protection he must now send him to save her.
Mallika Threatens Yuvi
Yuvi becomes extremely guilty and confesses to Mallika that he pushed Dua into the freezer. Mallika threatens him and says that if anyone asks he must say he knows nothing. She warns him that if he tells the truth she will make Vikrant throw him out of the house or send him to juvenile detention.
Yuvi becomes terrified and begs her for help because he does not want to go to jail. At the same time Yashika informs Mallika that Vikrant and Mannat are checking the CCTV footage which shocks her.
Mannat Discovers Mallika Lied
While watching the footage Mannat discovers that Mallika did meet Dua which proves she lied earlier. Furious Mannat storms out of the CCTV room and confronts Mallika. In her anger she grabs Mallika by the neck and demands to know where Dua is. Vikrant and Dhairya quickly pull Mannat away.
Mannat insists that Mallika knows where Dua is and has done something to her. Mallika denies everything and says she has no idea where Dua is. Bunty again repeats that Mallika told Dua to meet Yuvi. Yashika defends Mallika and asks if they really think Mallika looks like a kidnapper. She says Mannat first blamed Yuvi and now Mallika.
Mallika Gives a New Explanation
Vikrant tells everyone to stay quiet and calmly questions Mallika. Mallika finally claims that she only spoke to Dua because she felt guilty about Yuvi cheating during the competition and wanted to apologize. She says Dua asked for directions to the washroom and she simply showed her the way.
Mannat immediately calls her explanation a lie saying Dua never went to the washroom. Dhairya warns Vikrant that nothing should happen to his daughter. Vikrant again asks Mallika to tell the truth reminding her that everyone knows she dislikes Mannat and may have said something hurtful to Dua out of bitterness. Mallika continues crying and pretending to be innocent.
Yashika Turn the Situation Against Mannat
Yashika then plays the victim card. She reminds Vikrant that today was supposed to be their engagement but he accidentally put the engagement ring on Mannat’s finger. She complains that her fiance was busy romancing his ex while she was left humiliated and now they are accusing her and Mallika without proof.
Vishaka supports Yashika and says that Mannat deliberately took advantage of Vikrant’s intoxication to ruin the engagement. She harshly questions what kind of mother leaves her child alone and follows her ex-lover. Vishaka then blames Vikrant as well saying that he crossed all limits of shamelessness and humiliated Yashika in front of everyone. Furious and frustrated Vikrant walks away from there.
After Vikrant leaves Aishwarya secretly praises Yashika and Vishaka for their performance. She is confident that no one will find Dua
Precap: Aishwarya cruelly says that after losing Dua Mannat will wish she had died that night rather than suffer such pain. Meanwhile Yuvi secretly goes to check on Dua in the freezer but accidentally falls inside it himself.
At the same time Mannat begins to suspect that Aishwarya might be responsible for Dua’s disappearance.
