Vihaan arrives at Gauri’s chawl with his luggage, declaring he won’t return until she agrees to go with him. Gauri warns him she’ll call the police if he doesn’t leave, but Vihaan reminds her the house is in his name, leaving her powerless. She taunts him, saying he won’t survive chawl life. Accepting the challenge, Vihaan is shocked by the queue for water. Gauri tells him he must wait like everyone else, and though Vihaan agrees, he quickly becomes exhausted.
Trying to lighten the moment and impress, Vihaan goes shirtless, catching the attention of nearby girls. One of them invites him to skip the line, and they all flirt with him while he fills their buckets. Gauri, visibly jealous, reminds the girls that Vihaan is married. Vihaan responds with a poetic line to charm the girls further, prompting Gauri to throw a bucket of water on him in frustration.
Meanwhile, Davansh arrives at the chawl, aiming to cast a spell on Gauri and manipulate her into killing Vihaan. Elsewhere, Kesar, alone and weeping by the riverbank, has a nightmare where she sets the river on fire after a mysterious girl calls for help.
Back at the chawl, Vihaan overhears that Rekha and Charu don’t have a bed and are sleeping outside, so he chooses to sleep on the floor. Gauri notices him struggling with mosquitos and tries to help, accidentally falling on him. Gauri tells him he can leave if he wants, but Vihaan chooses to stay. The night continues with Vihaan battling the mosquitos alone.
Later, Kesar sneaks into her home to whisper plans to a bird, promising they’ll escape soon. She gets a call from Aditya—she’s planning to elope with him
In a surreal turn, Gauri dreams of being attacked by a strange force that drags her to a creepy place. She finds Davansh there, surrounded by crows. He tells her she is from Pratham Lok and must kill Vihaan. However, divine lions protect her because she is a true devotee of Maa. Gauri fights back and throws a trishul at Davansh, who vanishes. She thanks Maa Ambee and wakes up terrified.
Rushing to Vihaan, she hugs him and tells him someone tried to kill him. Vihaan asks what’s going on, and she questions what he experienced when he entered her house. He says he didn’t see anyone. Gauri then discovers a knife stuck in a chair and urgently tells Vihaan to stay alert.
A hand emerges slowly from a grave, and one by one, the dead witches begin to awaken. Pratham Vanshi senses the return of the powerful Maha Dayan and predicts that she has risen to take revenge on Vihaan’s family. She immediately decides to warn them.
Meanwhile, Gauri questions Vihaan about what happened before her arrival, and accuses him of trying to harm her. Vihaan insists she’s mistaken, calling it a dream. Soon after, Harsh informs Vihaan of a serious problem—Pratham Vanshi has warned them about an imminent danger. At the same time, Rashmi hears eerie sounds from outside. Alarmed, the family rushes out to investigate, only to find themselves surrounded by a group of witches. Sarda quickly draws a protective line using Gangajal to shield them, but their efforts are interrupted when the leader of the witches steps forward.
Fear spreads through the family as the head witch unveils her face—she is Mohana, the most feared Dayan in their community. She has come to avenge Kamini’s death. Sarda pleads, claiming Kamini’s death was unintentional, but Mohana reminds them Kamini only wanted her son. Vihaan urges her to leave, but Mohana is determined to kill him. She rises into the air and attacks, but Vihaan and his family narrowly escape harm.
Confused by her failed attack, Mohana is stunned to see Gauri arriving. Gauri joins Vihaan, ready to defend him. The family feels a sense of relief as Gauri steps forward, causing the witches to retreat. She boldly tells Mohana that if she wants to harm her husband, she’ll have to go through her. Mohana scoffs, warning Gauri of the witches’ power, but Gauri remains fearless.
Enraged, Mohana curses the family, declaring they will witness Vihaan’s death. She commands crows, enchanted with her blood, to attack him. Veena panics, but Gauri firmly holds Vihaan’s hand, shielding him.
Meanwhile, Kesar attempts to escape the house with a mysterious bird. She breaks a window and jumps out, but her mother spots her.
Later, Vihaan offers water to a shaken Veena, who expresses gratitude to Gauri for standing by them despite everything. Gauri insists there’s no need for thanks—she did what any wife would do to protect her husband. She then reveals a troubling mystery: although she killed Kamini, someone opened the Parchai Dwar (Shadow Door). Arjun admits to taking the keys, but Vihaan questions how that’s possible since Arjun was at Gauri’s house at the time.
Gauri reveals the culprit—Davansh. Vihaan confirms her suspicion and recalls his memory being tampered with at Gauri’s house. Dadi is shocked by this revelation. Gauri explains that Davansh is still alive. The family is stunned as Harsh concludes that Davansh was the one who came for the keys. Sarda decides to consult Pratham Vanshi to uncover Davansh’s true intentions.
