Aditi and Juhi are applying medicine to Teju’s hand for her blisters. Aditi apologizes to Teju for Lakshmi’s behavior towards her. Teju reassures Aditi, saying it isn’t her fault, but Aditi feels responsible, explaining that Lakshmi’s actions have deeply affected Teju. She further shares that Lakshmi’s difficult past, where she never received what she truly deserved, has shaped her harsh personality.
Teju reflects on how she never imagined her father had other children, reminiscing about when her family felt perfect. Juhi comforts her, urging her not to dwell on the past. Aditi then suggests Teju marry to escape the suffering at home. Teju, however, insists she can’t leave Mukta and Vedaant alone and hopes to find a job to help get Vedaant into a good school.
Aditi praises Teju’s singing, which Teju reveals was Mohit’s dream for her to pursue. Aditi encourages Teju to follow her dreams, but admits that in her current house, no one appreciates music. She suggests Teju marry, believing her husband’s family might support her talent. Teju’s thoughts turn to Mohit Rituraj as she listens to Aditi’s words.
Later, Aditi playfully teases Juhi about her wedding looks for tomorrow. Aditi mentions how Neil’s parents are determined to choose a bride for him and asks Teju to help Juhi get ready. Teju agrees to assist, praising Juhi’s taste.
Meanwhile, Neil, lost in thoughts about Teju, calls her, but she doesn’t answer. His family notices his distracted demeanor and teases him about falling in love. Nandini reminds him about his wedding preparations and mentions a dress sent by Leena, though Neil insists on wearing his usual suit. Leena arrives to help Neil get ready and asks the others to leave.
At Chavan Niwas, Teju helps Juhi get ready for the wedding, earning praise from Aditi. Meanwhile, Neil, finally dressed, prepares for the upcoming wedding.
Lakshmi accuses Mukta of shamelessly pursuing a married man. Teju firmly warns Lakshmi not to insult her mother, stating that while she can endure anything, she will not tolerate her mother’s humiliation. Meanwhile, Neil’s family arrives at Chavan Niwas for the wedding, and Neil notices Teju among the guests.
