One is 7 years old and other is almost 6 years. The kids miss their mother, they are crying and they are not eating anything. He doesn’t want to take the court on tangent, but the Court should think about the little kids. Shobha thinks that Samarth is trying to free her.
She thinks that he couldn’t be a good husband but at least he is trying to be a better father. Then Mr.Sethi says that the kids have been missing their father for almost 3 months. Their grand mother and Aunt can take their mother’s place but they have no one in their father’s place. In case when both parents are in jail, it’s a rule that one can be bailed to be with their kids. He urges the Court to let Samarth be freed so that he could be with his kids. If not bail then at least he should be put on parole. Shobha is disheartened to realize that Samarth only cares about his freedom. Court asks Shobha to give her opinion on this. Shobha says that the kids miss their father and he should be with them.

The Judge tells him that whatever he wants to say has to be said in Witness box and asks which side he is on. Vikram says he on Truth’s side.
Vikram stands in the Witness box and says that Shobha is innocent and she shouldn’t be punished for something she did under duress. He tells the Court that Samarth threatened Shobha through Tarun that if she didn’t sign the affidavit then he would divorce her and take the kids custody. He says Tarun had to come his office to threaten Shobha and it got recorded in the CCTV camera. He gives the CD as evidence. The Judge sees the tape and it is proved that whatever Shobha did was for her kids. Judge says that in the light of new evidence, Shobha is found innocent and freed from jail.

Samarth says even he didn’t know Tarun went to Shobha’s office. Sharda says that Vikram and his Naani are meddling a lot in their affairs.

Vikram tells her to wrap up her things and get back to office.Vikram is taking a meeting with Shobha and his other employees. He says they need a new marketing strategy and they don’t have a marketing head. So the ideas should come form them. Everyone stares at him and he tells them he wants them to give ideas now.
