Malishka told Kiran that she had given up today and from today onwards she would not try to separate Lakshmi and Rishi. Malishka asked Kiran who said that Lakshmi was a jinx. Malishka said Lakshmi was really lucky and she was so lucky that she had changed CM’s fate. Malishka said Ojas should have killed CM but Ojas could not kill CM because she had asked Ojas to kill Lakshmi. Malishka asked Kiran what she should do so that she could win over Lakshmi. Malishka said she was tired and Lakshmi could take whatever she wanted from her. Kiran told Malishka that she had wanted her to say this for a long time.
Kiran told Malishka that from the time the court ordered Lakshmi could enter the Oberoi mansion she started getting matches again and asked Malishka to look at the photos one by one. Malishka asked Kiran if she had gone mad and said she knew Malishka only wanted Rishi. Kiran told Malishka that if she only wanted Rishi then she should stop acting like a child.
Lakshmi thought about Rishi’s words. Rishi came to the kitchen to take a bottle of water. Lakshmi stopped Rishi when he was about to leave the kitchen. Lakshmi apologised to Rishi. Rishi accepted Lakshmi’s apology and tried to leave.
Kiran told Malishka that if she loved Rishi then she should try to get Rishi wholeheartedly and not be weak like this. Malishka said she only had a weak moment and she only loved Rishi. Kiran scolded Malishka because she had asked someone to kill Lakshmi. Malishka told Kiran that she understood and from now on she would do everything herself. Malishka said tomorrow was Janmashtami and tomorrow she would teach Lakshmi a lesson.
Lakshmi stopped Rishi and asked if he would not even ask her why she apologised to him. Rishi told Lakshmi that she did not want to talk about all of this. Rishi said whenever he talked to her she always ended up saying to Rishi that she did not want to talk to him and hurting him.
Harleen, Karishma, Aanchal and Neelam saw in the news that all the reporters were saying Lakshmi had saved CM Sulochana and everyone. Harleen praised Lakshmi because she saved not only CM but also their family. Neelam also admitted to Harleen that Lakshmi saved them and it was the truth. Malishka and Anushka overheard their conversation. Malishka came and told Neelam that she would prepare for tomorrow’s Janmashtami and asked them not to worry about it. She left from there. Karishma asked Anushka to tell them when she left and said they were worried about her. Anushka agreed. Neelam told Harleen that she thought Malishka might have heard them praising Lakshmi.
Lakshmi told Rishi that she saw how much he loved Parvati and how much Parvati loved him. Lakshmi told Rishi that she understood how he felt because she also felt the same thing when Parvati came into her life. Lakshmi apologised to Rishi for keeping him away from Parvati. Lakshmi told Rishi that she did not understand if he was really a good person or she was misunderstanding him. Rishi told Lakshmi that what she said was both the truth. Rishi said he was a good person and she was misunderstanding him. Lakshmi thought Rishi was commenting on her because she admitted she misunderstood him. Lakshmi argued with Rishi about it. Rishi told Lakshmi that he was only trying to explain to her but she did not listen to him. Rishi left from there.
Kiran called Malishka to ask if she had reached home. Malishka said she had reached home. Malishka later complained to Kiran about Neelam and everyone praising Lakshmi because she saved everyone. Kiran asked Malishka not to think too much about it. Malishka invited Kiran to Janmashtami tomorrow and cut the call.
Rano recalled how Ayush saw Shalu while she was leaving. Rano asked Shalu when she would get married. Shalu asked Rano why she was suddenly asking that. Rano hesitated to tell the truth but she still told Shalu that Ayush was married. Shalu thought about Ayush. Shalu told Rano that she knew Ayush was married. Rano told Shalu that Ayush was married but it would not be good for her if she roamed around Ayush. Shalu told Rano that she was Lakshmi’s sister and she would never do anything wrong like that. Shalu said she would never have any extra marital affair with Ayush. Rano told Shalu that these were just exterior words that she was speaking. Rano said she could see what was going on in her heart and Ayush’s heart also. Rano commented on it and left from there.
Ayush thought whether he should call Shalu or not. Anushka came into the room. Ayush dropped his phone. Anushka picked up Ayush’s phone and saw Ayush was about to call Shalu so that was why he was scared. Anushka commented on Ayush about it. Ayush told Anushka that she was thinking too much and left from there. Anushka thought she should not allow another woman to enter into her man’s life like Malishka. Malishka asked Anushka what she meant.
Rishi saw Ayush was troubled and asked Ayush what happened. Ayush told Rishi that when he dropped Shalu and Rano and they were leaving he was looking at Shalu and Rano looked at him. Ayush told Rishi he was hiding his sight from Rano and left from there. Ayush said he felt like he had done something wrong.
Ayush said when he came home he was thinking about calling Shalu to talk about it. Anushka suddenly came into the room and saw his phone because he was about to call Shalu. Anushka was commenting on him. Rishi after hearing what happened suggested Ayush not to fall into all of this and asked Ayush to look at himself and how his entire life got tangled.
Malishka argued with Anushka about what Anushka meant by saying that she did not want to be like Malishka. Anushka asked Malishka to please stop it because she was already disturbed. Malishka asked Anushka what happened. Anushka said she was worried that Shalu would destroy her marriage like Lakshmi had destroyed Malishka’s marriage and she would not allow that to happen so she was going to take action against Shalu. She shared her plan with Malishka. Malishka said it was possible for her plan to work and Shalu would be out of her way.
Rishi came into Lakshmi’s room and put a blanket over Lakshmi who was sleeping. Rishi looked at Lakshmi and slept beside her because Lakshmi accidentally slept on Rishi’s hand.
The next day Harleen was shown decorating the house because today was Janmashtami. She told her family that today a theatre troupe was going to perform Krishna Leela in their home at her special request. Malishka told Aanchal and others that she did all of this and took the credit for it.
Rohan and Parvati took Neelam to Lakshmi’s room. Lakshmi woke up and saw Rishi sleeping beside her. Lakshmi noticed the kids and Neelam coming to her room. Lakshmi woke up Rishi and put him in the wardrobe.
Neelam, Rohan and Parvati came into Lakshmi’s room. Rohan and Parvati requested Lakshmi to wear this dress for Janmashtami and do the Pooja along with Rishi. Lakshmi agreed. When Neelam was about to leave the room she heard Rishi sneezing. Neelam turned around. Parvati gave tissue to Lakshmi and asked Lakshmi to sneeze with this. Lakshmi agreed. Neelam left from there. Parvati and Rohan opened the wardrobe and asked Rishi what he was doing in the wardrobe. Rishi said he was playing hide and seek. Rohan said they would also play with them. Rishi agreed and sent Rohan and Parvati away.
Rishi later asked Lakshmi why she put him in the wardrobe. Lakshmi said she was scared and she did not want Neelam to see him in her room because Neelam would scold her. She was also tired of telling others that she was not interested in Rishi. Rishi said instead of doing all of this he would have told the truth to Neelam about what happened last night.
Rishi told Lakshmi that in the night he was passing by her room and saw that she was shivering so he put a blanket over her. Lakshmi accidentally slept on his hand and he slept beside Lakshmi so that Lakshmi’s sleep would not be disturbed. Lakshmi asked Rishi if he slept beside her the whole night so that her sleep would not be disturbed. Rishi said yes and left from there.
Malishka saw Rishi coming into their room. Malishka asked Rishi where he was last night. Rishi asked Malishka why she was asking this. Malishka asked Rishi to tell her or else she would go and tell Neelam about it. Rishi hearing it said he slept in the study room.
Kiran met Malishka in the Oberoi mansion and asked Malishka why she was looking upset. Malishka said what she should think when Rishi was lying to her. Kiran said it was a disrespect to their relationship.
Malishka brought Kiran to the study room and asked Kiran if she thought someone slept here. Kiran said this room was too clean and it was not possible. Malishka said she thought the same thing and told Kiran how Rishi lied to her that he slept in the study room. Kiran told Malishka that it was a good thing if Rishi was scared of her because it meant Rishi valued her and this relationship so that was why he lied to her and there was a chance for her to save this relationship. Malishka felt good hearing it.
Rishi told Ayush how he lied to Malishka because Malishka threatened him that she would complain to Neelam about it. Ayush said it was a big problem for Rishi because if Malishka knew that he lied to her because he was scared of her then she would think her relationship with him could be saved. Rishi said he only lied to save Lakshmi from Neelam.
Parvati brought the Lord Krishna idol to Harleen. Harleen later told Parvati and Rohan the story behind Shri Krishna Janmashtami. Neelam continued the story after Harleen. Neelam got troubled because she could not recall the name of a demon killed by Krishna. Lakshmi came and continued the story to Rohan and Parvati. Rohan and Parvati got inspired by the Krishna story and said they wanted to be like Krishna.
Lakshmi instructed the decorators on what they should do. Malishka arrived, argued with Lakshmi and asked what she was doing. Malishka questioned Lakshmi about why she was telling the decorators what to do. Malishka said the Paalna was meant to be here where the Pooja should be performed and asked why Lakshmi was telling the decorators to decorate somewhere else.
Lakshmi explained to Malishka that the Paalna should not be placed here. Annoyed, Malishka complained to Aanchal and Karishma accusing Lakshmi of trying to change the location of the Paalna to take credit for everything. Aanchal and Karishma after hearing this criticised Lakshmi. Lakshmi asked them to stop misunderstanding her.
She explained that if the Paalna was placed here it would face the North-South direction which was considered inauspicious while the East-West direction was considered auspicious. After explaining Lakshmi left. Aanchal sarcastically asked Kiran to teach Malishka basic common sense about directions and then left. Malishka felt frustrated that Aanchal and Karishma did not support her. Kiran explained to Malishka that knowing about East and West directions was common sense and that if they had supported Malishka they would have looked foolish.
Lakshmi returned to her room and saw the dress laid out for her. She wondered how she could wear it. Rishi noticed the dress and understood that Rohan and Parvati wanted him to dress as Lord Sri Krishna.
Meanwhile Shalu talked to Rohan and Parvati over the phone. She asked if they told Rishi and Lakshmi that they wanted to see them as Radha and Krishna. Rohan and Parvati admitted they did not mention it. They just gave them the outfits and left. Rano praised Shalu for trying to bring Rishi and Lakshmi closer. Rano added that if Lakshmi wanted she could reunite with Rishi. Shalu responded that Lakshmi was afraid to trust Rishi due to what happened in the past.
Rishi dressed as Krishna and Lakshmi dressed as Radha. Rishi saw Lakshmi as Radha and was mesmerised. He caught her when she was about to fall.
Rohan and Parvati came to Rishi and Lakshmi and remarked that they looked exactly like Radha and Krishna. They then brought Rishi and Lakshmi downstairs. Harleen was impressed upon seeing them dressed as Radha and Krishna.
Malishka meanwhile took Rohan and Parvati aside thinking to herself that those who had children would have power in the house.
Rano and Shalu arrived at the Oberoi mansion. Rano paid the auto driver but the driver said he did not have Rs. 5 in change. Rano argued with the driver. Ansh intervened, gave Rs. 5 to the driver and returned Rano’s money. Ansh looked at Shalu and was mesmerised by her. Shalu thanked Ansh for helping them. Ansh assured her it was no trouble. Rano then pulled Shalu away.
Ayush greeted Ansh and asked when he arrived. Ansh said he just came and would return after parking the car.
Malishka showed the Paalna to Parvati and Rohan explaining that Lord Krishna would be placed here for the Pooja. Parvati and Rohan acknowledged this and left. Kiran noticed Malishka looking upset and asked her what was wrong. Malishka confessed that she did not want Parvati to be part of the family because she was Lakshmi’s daughter.
Rishi watched Lakshmi from a distance. Lakshmi went to meet Rano and Shalu. Ayush noticed Shalu and sneaked glances at her.
Aanchal commented to Karishma that Shalu should not be allowed to visit the house anymore pointing out how Ayush kept sneaking peeks at her. Karishma agreed.
Parvati then asked Karishma and Aanchal who they were gossiping about. They denied it and Parvati left.
Aanchal remarked to Karishma that she liked Parvati but felt that she resembled Lakshmi more than Rishi. Karishma agreed. Neelam overheard their conversation.
Neelam called Karishma and Aanchal and took them to a room. She told them that she overheard their conversation about Parvati and explained that Parvati looked exactly like Rishi not Lakshmi. She sternly told them never to say such things again. Aanchal and Karishma apologised and promised not to repeat their mistake. Neelam instructed Karishma to go and manage the guests which she agreed to do.
Later Neelam told Aanchal that while she could expect others to make mistakes she expected more from Aanchal since she was her sister and shadow. Aanchal agreed. Karishma was shown eavesdropping on their conversation. Avinash noticed Karishma and walked away and she followed him.
Karishma confronted Avinash asking why he looked at her like that earlier. Avinash mentioned how Neelam advised her on how to behave with Parvati. Karishma accused Avinash of eavesdropping but he denied it adding that he felt suffocated in their relationship. He then left. Ayush noticed Avinash looking upset and asked what happened but Karishma brushed it off and left.
Ansh greeted Ayush and Rishi. He spotted Rano at the function and remarked on how she was arguing with the auto driver for Rs. 5 calling it cheap behaviour. Shalu overheard and confronted Ansh reminding him that he helped them earlier but was now badmouthing them behind their backs. Shalu stormed off and Rishi followed to calm her down.
Neelam asked Rishi where the theatre troupe was as they had not arrived yet. Soon after the troupe arrived at the Oberoi mansion and greeted Neelam. One of the troupe members saw Lakshmi and Rishi and commented that they looked exactly like Radha and Krishna.
When the troupe performed the lady invited Rishi and Lakshmi to join them as they looked like Radha and Krishna. Rishi and Lakshmi danced together. Malishka grew jealous watching them. Later the Pandit announced that it was time for the Pooja. Neelam and the others headed towards the pooja while Ansh continued to glance at Shalu.
