On August 16, 2024, the latest episode of Badall Pe Paon Hain featured a series of emotional moments and unexpected developments. The story begins with Baani overhearing a businessman talk about his significant losses in the stock market. Relieved that she avoided a similar fate, she engages in a conversation with him, offering words of encouragement. The businessman appreciates her positivity and suggests that she learn about trading from her husband. However, this suggestion brings sadness to Baani as she reflects on her husband Rajat’s lack of interest in acquiring new knowledge.
Meanwhile, Rajat receives a message from Lavanya, urging him to meet her. As Rajat contemplates the message, he overhears Aastha speaking with Gini, discussing a gift Rajat gave her. Aastha taunts Rajat, sarcastically praising him for supporting Baani’s stock market investments while criticizing Purab. Rajat, feeling conflicted, defends Aastha and then leaves, though he remains troubled by his actions, especially given his disapproval of Baani’s involvement in the stock market.
Later, Rajat meets Lavanya at her office. Lavanya tries to persuade Rajat to join her business partner, but Rajat firmly declines. Lavanya then criticizes Baani, which prompts Rajat to defend his wife. He warns Lavanya not to drag Baani into their issues, which upsets Lavanya. She begins to wonder if Rajat has told Baani about her return to India. Deciding to take matters into her own hands, Lavanya resolves to inform Baani herself. Rajat, on the other hand, grows increasingly anxious about how Baani might react upon learning about Lavanya’s return.
At the Khanna household, Shilpa informs everyone about Baani’s upcoming birthday, and they decide to surprise her with a small party. Despite Bhishan’s indifferent attitude, the rest of the family expresses their affection for Baani, considering her a special person who deserves their love. Meanwhile, Baani, while at work, accidentally spills coffee on her footwear and rushes to clean it. Parul, noticing this, asks Baani about the incident, leading to some playful teasing. Just then, Lavanya arrives at the café where Baani works, determined to ensure Baani knows she has returned to India.
Parul, sensing Baani’s unease, tells her that she believes Rajat truly loves her. However, Baani remains unsure of her husband’s feelings. Lavanya, intent on making her presence known, calls a waiter, prompting Baani to attend to her. Unfortunately, Baani fails to recognize Lavanya as one of the ladies accidentally bumps into her. Lavanya, meanwhile, receives a message from Rajat and leaves the café, confident that no one can replace her in Rajat’s life.
Back at the Khanna household, the family decides to involve Rajat in their plans for Baani’s birthday surprise. Poonam distracts Baani while asking Rajat for help with the party preparations. Although Rajat initially mocks their efforts, Poonam stands up for Baani, leading Rajat to reluctantly agree to assist them. That night, tensions between Rajat and Baani rise as they argue about going to bed early, with Baani growing increasingly frustrated by Rajat’s behavior.
As the days pass, Rajat and Baani visit the Aroras. During their visit, Baani overhears part of a conversation about the Khanna family’s plans to surprise her for her birthday, which fills her with happiness. Two days before her birthday, Rajat buys a gift for Baani, but his mood is dampened when Lavanya calls, questioning why he has been ignoring her. Rajat, focused on Baani’s birthday, brushes off Lavanya’s concerns, explaining that he is busy. Lavanya, curious and somewhat jealous, discovers through Shanky that Rajat is preoccupied with the birthday preparations.
As Baani’s birthday approaches, Parul advises her to be patient with her marriage, reassuring her that things will eventually fall into place. However, the situation takes an unexpected turn when Lavanya meets with an accident. Rajat rushes her to the hospital, leaving Baani at home, where she refuses to cut her birthday cake until Rajat returns.
The episode ends on a cliffhanger, leaving viewers anxious to see how the relationships between the characters will evolve, especially with the tension between Rajat, Baani, and Lavanya continuing to simmer beneath the surface.
