Gauri rushes to save Charu and calls Rekha for help. She finds Charu in a bar, forced into dancing. Charu reveals she was brought there against her will. When Gauri tries to take her away, guards intervene, claiming Rekha has sold Charu. Gauri confronts Rekha, offering any amount for Charu’s freedom, but Rekha demands she return to her marital home instead.
Desperate, Gauri returns to Vihaan, humbly apologizing and ask ing for money. Vihaan gives her ₹5 lakh, reminding her to attend the upcoming puja. Meanwhile, Vihaan hints to his brothers that something significant will happen on his birthday.
Gauri pays the guards but is blocked when their boss can’t be contacted. Thinking quickly, she escapes with Charu in a stranger’s car. The lady driver initially protests but is won over by Gauri’s poetic plea. After a brief argument, Gauri and Charu safely leave.
Back home, Gauri imagines returning the money to Vihaan and signing a contract, but in reality, she plans to sell her car to repay him. Gauri tells Rekha about selling the car, promising her a portion of the amount, prompting Rekha to ominously bring kerosene.
