Swayam embraced Harsh and addressed him as Papa. Harsh is taken aback and wonders what he is saying. According to this photo, Swayam, you married my mother, Maitree, and thus you are my father. Swaym hugs Harsh and expresses his love for him. Harsh believes Maitree erred by lying to Swayam.
Harsh transports Swayam to Maitree’s home. He is aware of Yash’s concern for Maitree. Harsh apologises to Maitree for interrupting their private moment. Maitree claims he did not disturb them and that he is misinterpreting the scenario. Harsh believes you made a mistake. He questions Maitree about why she informed Swayam he is his father. He begs her to find the guts to tell her son the truth. Maitree claims she doesn’t want to discuss it. Harsh believes your son must be aware that you are a liar.
Maitree asks him not to bring it up in front of Swayam. Harsh insists that Swayam hear the truth, so I will speak in front of him. Yash instructs Swayam to go inside and instructs Harsh to be cautious in front of a child. Harsh wonders who he is to tell him his limitations. Maitree instructs them not to cause drama in front of Swayam. She asks Yash to accompany Swayam inside.
Swayam is led inside by Yash. Swayam requests that Yash explain the problem between his parents. Yash dismisses the conversation as “boring” and instructs him to go to bed. Swayam claims to be thirsty. Yash begs him to remain in the room while he goes to the kitchen to fetch some water.
Harsh questions Maitree about naming her illegitimate child after him. Maitree is surprised and chastises him for stooping so low. She tells him how she got Swayam so close to the trash can. Harsh makes a remark about it and then walks away. Swayam discovers the truth. He is startled and falls unconscious while saying Maitree’s name. Maitree is taken aback by Swayam’s condition. Yash and Maitree accompany Swayam to his room.
Yash dials the Doctor’s number. Harsh has returned home. Sona chastises him for injuring Maitree. Harsh claims Maitree called you before I got home. Nandini claims you’re mistaken, and I get the truth from Dinesh’s uncle. The doctor examines Swayam. Sona tells Harsh that he has deeply injured them and reminds him that Maitree, like you, lost her baby, yet you blamed her for the baby’s death. Sona claims Maitree is living by adopting an orphan child because you made false accusations against her. Harsh asks them to support Maitree and then departs.
Swayam reports from prior tests are given to the doctor. He examines them and informs Maitree that Swayam has bone marrow cancer. Maitree is taken aback and denies it. Yash inquires of the Doctor as to his certainty. The doctor is certain. Maitree visits her son.
Nandini tries to shift Harsh’s perspective, but Harsh consumes alcohol and says his family is concerned about Maitree, not him. Nandini walks away. Maitree sobs upon seeing Swayam. Swayam will be well with a bone marrow transplant, according to Yash. Swayam becomes conscious. He asks Maitree if he can refer to her as his mother. Yes, Maitree, I am your mother. He inquires about his father.
Maitree promising Swayam that nothing bad will happen to him. Swayam says he’s OK and requests permission to phone her mother. Yes, Maitree says, I’m your mother. Swayam inquires about his father. He presses Maitree to respond. Yash introduces himself to Swayam as his father. Maitree is stunned. Yash tells Swayam that he has always wanted a son like him. Swayam is asked if he accepts him as his father. Maitree requests that Swayam sleep. She puts Swayam to sleep.
Yash is led downstairs by Maitree. She questioned why he did it in front of Swayam and whether he is aware of what he has done. She says I respect you, but I’ve never thought of our relationship in that light. Yash says he considers her a friend as well. He informs her that he wishes to marry her for Swayam’s sake.
He reminds her that he, too, raised Swayam. Swayam appears and requests that Yash marry Maitree in order for him to become his father. Swayam requests that Maitree marry Yash in order to accomplish his wish. Maitree observes.
Tiwaris hears the sound of a beckoning bell. They consider who returned home at this time. Sona opens the door and smiles as she sees Maitree. Maitree goes to Harsh and begs him to give his name to her son and to become Swayam’s father. The Tiwari family is overjoyed to hear this. Maitree requests that Harsh grant her wish. Harsh claims he would never be a father to her illegitimate child because he believes her lies. Maitree says I already knew your answer, but I came here with optimism because you’re always my first priority, but you utterly crushed me, so I took a decent break.
Harsh claims to have made a decision as well. He declares that he is ending their relationship and requests that she return the nuptial chain. Maitree takes off her mangal sutra. She gives the mangal sutra to Harsh and informs him that his refusal to grant her request permanently ends their relationship. Maitree then departs.
Harsh is chastised by Sona for losing a gem like Maitree in his ego. She goes to her room. In weeping, Maitree walks lifelessly down the road. Harsh recalls Maitree’s remarks and sobs while clutching the nuptial chain. Harsh afterwards realises he has emptied the wine bottle. Angrily, he punches the closet while holding the Mangalsutra. Nandini arrives and begs him not to injure himself. She ties a kerchief across his wound. Harsh tells Nandini that he was made alone by everyone. Nandini claims to be there for him as a friend. Harsh claims that no one is looking out for him.
He sees a shattered mangal sutra and declares that Maitree has triumphed. Harsh emerges from the room. Maitree informs him that he is inebriated and requests that he not disrupt others. Harsh wonders if Nandini is that horrible. He’s about to tumble. Nandini grabs him and forces him to sit in the chair. He falls asleep while clutching her hand. Nandini struggles unsuccessfully to reclaim her hand. She is powerless while she sits there.
Maitree has returned home. Yash inquires as to where Maitree has gone and why she has not returned his calls. According to Maitree, I went to give Harsh one final opportunity, but Harsh killed my hope and the love we shared. She looks in the mirror and sobs as she sees her empty neck. Harsh, according to Maitree, refused to take my Swayam.
