Nikki meets Rachna, who reveals her suspicion that Piyush is no longer himself but has become a Rakshas. She describes seeing Piyush’s reflection transform into a rakshas and his sinister smile at Vikram’s plight. Nikki is skeptical, suggesting that Nethra might have cast a spell on Rachna. Despite Nikki’s dismissal, Rachna insists on her belief and questions why Piyush didn’t follow Nikki during the dangerous rasam. Sumitra intervenes, slapping Rachna and defending Piyush. She claims Piyush stayed behind to protect his family, scolding Rachna for inciting Nikki against him. Sumitra then leads Rachna away, stating that Nethra has called for them.
Nethra explains to everyone that the skull Nikki brought is Narmund Pishachini’s favorite, highlighting Nikki’s loyalty to Malik. Vikram, expressing his willingness to serve, is instructed by Nethra to perform the skull’s abhishek and siddh rituals. The family reluctantly participates in the ritual, involving scorpion blood. Nethra demands they drink the blood as Malik’s prasad, threatening to kill Prateik if they refuse. Despite their revulsion, they comply under duress.
Nikki, reflecting on Piyush’s usual protective nature, is troubled by his absence during the ritual. She recalls Rachna’s words, growing increasingly suspicious of Piyush’s behavior. Nethra further coerces the family, leading to more tension.
Vikram, along with others, congratulates Nikki on completing Malik’s rasam, asserting Malik’s presence. Nikki questions why Malik doesn’t reveal himself, but Vikram insists he will appear once their loyalty is proven. He admonishes Nikki not to question the rituals and to be grateful for being chosen. Nikki recalls Piyush’s knowledge about the skull, realizing he might be hiding something. Determined to uncover the truth, Rachna follows Piyush, seeking proof to convince Nikki of her suspicions. Nethra, however, intercepts her, threatening her life.
In the precap, Nethra instructs Piyush to place the skull on his throne to gain its powers. Nikki, arriving unexpectedly, questions Piyush’s actions. Piyush boldly declares himself as Malik, leaving Nikki in shock.
The episode ends with unresolved tensions and growing suspicions, leaving viewers eager to see how Nikki will confront the truth about Piyush and navigate the dangerous dynamics within the family.
