On August 2, 2024, outside a cafe, Mangal ran into Lipika. Inside the cafe, Sowmya was waiting for Adit. Meanwhile, Gayatri told Lakshmi to find an excuse to avoid attending a function at Mangal’s house. Gayatri threatened not to go if Lakshmi attended, warning that it could ruin the relationship between their families.
Mangal asked Lipika why she was there. Lipika responded that she came to meet her friends. Mangal mentioned she was there to meet Kusum, who had already gone into the cafe.
Inside, Kusum approached Sowmya, asking for the earrings Sowmya intended to give to Adit. When she couldn’t find the earrings in Sowmya’s purse, Sowmya called Adit and saw him hiding in the cafe. Frustrated, Sowmya told Kusum she had endured enough humiliation and left.
Outside the cafe, Kusum spotted Lipika and Mangal. She questioned Lipika, who made an excuse and left. Adit followed Sowmya and grabbed her hand, which led to an argument. Sowmya insisted there was no relationship between them and complained about Kusum’s insults. Lipika interrupted, suggesting Adit had called Kusum and Mangal to scare her. Adit told Lipika to be quiet and took the earrings from Sowmya, giving them to Lipika. He warned Lipika to keep quiet about this or face consequences.
Adit then handed a stick to Kusum, asking her to beat him. Kusum was puzzled and asked why he was behaving this way. Adit demanded to know why she insulted Sowmya. Kusum asked about the earrings, and Adit explained that he had asked Sowmya to buy them for an international client as part of her work. Kusum suggested that Mangal could have done it, to which Adit made a derogatory comment about Mangal.
Mangal approached and asked what the argument was about. Kusum mentioned that it was about her lack of preparation for a dance with Ishana. Adit predicted that Ishana would be humiliated because of Mangal and left.
Later, Mangal gave ankle bells to Ishana for her dance competition, but Ishana was worried since she had asked Sowmya to dance with her.
The episode ended with the characters dealing with their unresolved conflicts and tensions.
