The latest episode of “Kumkum Bhagya” aired on August 7, 2024, opens with tension in the Malhotra family. Vikrant informs his family that their lawyer believes it is impossible to win their current case. Deepika comments on Purvi’s capabilities, challenging her to do the impossible by saving RV. Harleen surprises everyone by revealing she has arranged a press conference without Purvi’s knowledge, demanding that Purvi prove RV’s innocence in front of the media. Dadaji and Harman are skeptical and question Harleen’s drastic measures. Harleen issues an ultimatum to Purvi: if she fails to prove RV’s innocence, she must leave the house.
Monisha, feeling anxious, seeks answers from RV, who reassures her that they will discuss the matter once things settle down. He sends Monisha home and joins Harman and the others, confidently stating that he will clear his name. Harman and Dadaji express their trust in RV and advise him and Purvi to rest and eat. Despite Harman’s encouragement, Purvi has not eaten anything. RV notices this and catches Purvi when she nearly falls. Monisha observes this interaction from a distance, feeling a growing sense of insecurity.
RV is troubled, pondering how to prove his innocence. Meanwhile, Jasbeer is seen bribing a reporter to ensure RV’s reputation is tarnished at the press conference. The reporter agrees, albeit with some curiosity about Jasbeer’s motives, which Jasbeer dismisses.
Elsewhere, Roshini finds Monisha in tears and learns about her worries regarding RV and Purvi. Roshini reminds Monisha that she can manipulate the upcoming press conference to her advantage. Monisha, inspired by this idea, contacts Jasbeer to arrange a meeting and then plans to visit Neha’s house.
Neha is with her boyfriend when Monisha and Jasbeer arrive. Hastily, Neha sends her boyfriend out through the back window, pretending her mother is at the door. Monisha and Jasbeer explain their plan to Neha: she must create a scene at the press conference, accusing RV of being a molester and rapist. This chaos would force RV’s family to seek Neha’s help, enabling Monisha to persuade Neha to withdraw her police complaint.
As the episode ends, the tension and stakes are clearly rising. The Malhotra family is caught in a web of deceit and manipulation, with Purvi at the center of a crucial turning point.
