Staying true 16 June 2023: Sanjay shows their new project’s account details to Pramod and says Paragi is right that there are financial irregularities. Pramod asks if he checked himself or Paragi forced her to do so, he is blindly trusting Paragi. Sanjay tells him that it’s good that he checked the accounts as he thought Pramod is the signing authority, but he finds his name in everything. Pramod defends himself and says he is making a mistake by trusting Paragi. Sanjay says he feels suspicious seeing his weird behavior. Vinod walks to them hearing their conversation.
Shiva visits Paragi’s office. Paragi asks what is she doing here and informs that Chanda is searching for her. Shiva says she came to apologize to her. Paragi suspects her sudden change in behavior. Shiva apologizes and offers a sweet box to her. Paragi says she doesn’t trust her and Atul and will not forgive them and warns her not to visit her office without prior permission. Shiva leaves frustrated thinking she couldn’t execute her task. Paragi thinks why did she come here.
Vinod scolds Sanjay for accusing Pramod. Sanjay informs that the documents have his signature, but he didn’t sign them; he is just questioning Pramod and not accusing him. Vinod asks Pramod if he knows anything about this fraud. Pramod nods no. Vinod asks Sanjay to seek Pramod and Paragi’s help to solve this problem. Sanjay nods okay and walks away. Vinod consoles Pramod and asks him not to take Sanjay’s allegations seriously. Pramod blames Paragi for Sanjay’s behavior. Vinod says he trusts even Paragi.
Batra informs Paragi about the meeting with the education minister. He notices her applying dark lipstick and tries to point at it. Paragi hopes Sanjay must have checked the accounts by now and trusts her by now. Pramod informs Baby about Sanjay’s suspicion. Baby asks him to calm down. He says he feels guilty for breaking his brother’s trust. She tells Vinod earned it because of Pramod’s hard work. He relaxes listening to her. He asks her about their plan. She says they need to wait till Shiva executes the plan. He says they don’t have much time left.
Paragi visits Chanda’s house. Shiva informs that Atul is searching a job for him. Paragi and Chanda walk into a room. Shiva picks Paragi’s mobile and seeing Paragi returning hurriedly puts it in Paragi’s bag. Paragi returns home later and does Sanjay’s relaxing head massage. Sanjay says she was right about the financial irregularities and thinks Pramod is involved in it, but is not 100% sure. She says he won’t be punished as he is innocent and hugs him.
Pramod panics after Sanjay suspects him. Baby asks him to calm down as they will find some way out. He asks her how can he when they didn’t get any from Shiva yet. Shiva calls Baby, gives her bank account number to transfer money, and informs her that Paragi is visiting a school at Ramgarh for inspection tomorrow. Baby says she will transfer money if the information is right and asks her to inform her BIL Mayank Dubey to call her. Pramod asks what is the scene with Mayank Dubey now. She asks him to just wait and watch.
Next morning, Paragi leaves home for school inspection after informing Sanjay that she is going to Ramgarh for school inspection and will return by evening. Once she leaves, vinod walks to Sanjay and asks if he spoke to Paragi. Sanja removes his earphones, revealing he didn’t listen to Paragi, and says they will talk to her when she returns home in the evening.
Mayank visits Batra’s office on duty and recalls Baby with Shiva meeting him and provoking him to take revenge on Paragi. Out of flashback, Mayank thinks he will not spare Paragi for ruining his brother’s life. Paragi walks in. Batra tells her that they are going to a sensitive area for school inspection and hence called a police officer for their security. Mayank wears a mask to hide his face and greets Paragi. Batra opens car door for Paragi and says he should respect a woman. Paragi says during training, he said women and men are equal, so she should act on his advice and open a door for him instead as he is her senior. He smiles. They get into car. Mayank thinks everything is going according to plan.
Pramod apologizes Sanjay for overreacting yesterday and promises to recheck all the accounts and refix them. Sushma asks Sanjay to forgive Pramod and not suspect him. Vinod also asks him to trust his chachu and apologize. Pramod says Sanjay just questioned him and its not wrong, so he need not apologize. Sanjay apologizes him for suspecting him and says this business is equally important to him. Baby asks them to hug each other. Sanjay does and says he will visit Paragi at her office and surprise her. Vinod suggests him to buy a gift for Paragi. Baby thinks Sanjay doesn’t know about Paragi’s school inspection and a shock is waiting for him.
Batra and Paragi reach the school. She hears Mayank’s voice and thinks that his voice sounds familiar. Batra takes Paragi inside school. Sanjay buys flowers for Paragi and notices Mishraji nearby who informs that Paragi has gone for a school inspection with Batra. He thinks she must have forgotten to inform him and finds a hotel room booking receipt in Batra’s name for 2 people. He thinks he made the mistake of suspecting Paragi earlier and hurting her and shouldn’t make the same mistake again. He throws the receipt away. Baby picks it and thinks until there are corrupt peons, anything can be manipulated.
Batra finishes school inspection and thanks the principal for her cooperation. Principal says she will send them tea till she prepares final report. Paragi says she will inform her family that she will be late and calls Sanjay, but finds network issue. Even Batra finds network issues. Peon gives them spiked tea. Mayank watches them hiding. They both feel drows after having tea. Sanjay calls Paragi again and finds her number not reachable thinks again he shouldn’t suspect Paragi and wait till she returns home in the evening. He keeps flower bouquet aside and drives home. Baby gets tensed noticing Sanjay calling Paragi and fears her plan will fail if he connects to Paragi.
