Mumbai: The episode begins with the police inspector releasing Lalit from custody after he is unable to provide any information about Aparajita’s whereabouts. Frustrated by the lack of evidence, Lalit turns to Rakshit and demands that he reveal where Aparajita is hiding so the complaint can be withdrawn immediately. Rakshit firmly refuses to say a word, maintaining his silence despite Lalit’s repeated attempts to pressure him.
Before leaving, the police inspector warns Lalit not to create any further disturbances. However, Lalit loses his temper and scolds the inspector for not acting according to his wishes. Chandrabaga also intervenes, urging the officer to do something to save Lalit from the situation. Despite their pleas, Lalit refuses to leave the police station and continues insisting that Rakshit is responsible for Aparajita’s disappearance.
Meanwhile, Malti grows increasingly upset as she prays before Lord Ganesh. She complains that despite her unwavering faith, her prayers are still unanswered and Aparajita has not been found. Determined to seek divine intervention, Malti declares that she will neither eat nor drink until Aparajita returns home safely. She breaks down in tears, praying for her daughter’s safe return.
Akshajita and protector Har Mogpal try to comfort Malti and remind her to remain hopeful, assuring her that Lord Ganesh always protects those with pure intentions. At that moment, their neighbor Prabha arrives with shocking news. She informs Malti that the police have arrested Rakshit in connection with Aparajita’s alleged kidnapping. To support her claim, Prabha shows CCTV footage that appears to place suspicion on Rakshit, leaving the family stunned.
Elsewhere, Aparajita suddenly begins struggling to breathe as she learns that Rakshit has been arrested because of her. Overcome with guilt and panic, she repeatedly insists that Rakshit is innocent and should not be punished for something he did not do. Her condition worsens, forcing those around her to help her regain control.
Back at the police station, Rakshit directly questions Lalit, asking why he is falsely accusing him of kidnapping Aparajita. Just then, Malti arrives and confronts Lalit with the CCTV footage. She asks him whether he was the one who forced Aparajita into the vehicle shown in the video. Rakshit also points out that Aparajita willingly left after discovering the truth about her life.
Lalit, however, twists the situation in his favor. He claims that Rakshit’s ego could not tolerate Aparajita learning the truth, so he kidnapped her to keep her under his control. Rakshit strongly denies every allegation and requests the police inspector to thoroughly investigate Rakshit’s house as well as Chandrabaga’s residence to uncover the real truth.
Instead of answering the accusations, Lalit changes the subject and asks Rakshit about a viral video that has been circulating. Rakshit refuses to discuss it and reminds Lalit that his influence and public power will not help him escape justice forever.
Later, Ira meets a lawyer to discuss Rakshit’s legal battle. Rakshit asks Vivaan about Arvind, hoping he may have some information that could help prove his innocence. Vivaan reveals that Arvind is currently in a new city. Rakshit admits that he feels completely helpless, but Mohit encourages him not to lose hope, calling this another test of faith.
Despite Mohit’s reassurance, Rakshit worries that Lalit possesses no concrete evidence against him yet still managed to have him arrested. Mohit remains confident that the truth will eventually prevail and promises that justice will be served. Inspired by his words, Rakshit realizes that he now knows where Aparajita is hiding. He immediately asks Mohit to assist him with his next move before Lalit reaches her first.
Later, Ira meets with a lawyer to discuss Rakshit’s bail and explores every possible legal option that could secure his release. She refuses to believe the false accusations against him and is determined to prove his innocence before Lalit succeeds in trapping him further. The lawyer carefully listens to the details of the case and begins preparing the necessary legal strategy, giving Ira a small ray of hope.
Meanwhile, at the police station, Rakshit anxiously asks Vivaan if he has managed to get any information about Arvind. Vivaan informs him that Arvind is currently living in a different city and may not be easy to contact immediately. The news leaves Rakshit disappointed. Burdened by Aparajita’s disappearance and the criminal charges against him, he admits that he feels completely helpless. With every passing moment, he fears Lalit is getting closer to achieving his plan.
Mohit notices Rakshit’s despair and tries to lift his spirits. He reminds him that difficult times are often a test of faith and encourages him not to lose hope. Mohit also points out that Lalit has no solid evidence against Rakshit. Although Lalit appears confident, the truth is still on Rakshit’s side, and sooner or later justice will prevail.
As Mohit speaks, Rakshit suddenly recalls the threatening words Lalit had spoken earlier. He begins connecting the dots and realizes that Lalit behaved as though he already knew Aparajita’s exact location. Another memory flashes before him—he remembers seeing his own car being moved under suspicious circumstances. The realization shocks him, and he immediately concludes that Aparajita could be trapped inside his vehicle.
Without wasting another second, Rakshit asks Mohit to continue handling the legal formalities with the lawyer while he leaves to rescue Aparajita. Mohit agrees without hesitation, understanding that finding Aparajita has now become more important than anything else.
Elsewhere, Aparajita struggles to keep herself calm despite her terrifying situation. She reminds herself that giving up is not an option because Rakshit is risking everything to save her. She quietly gathers her courage and promises herself that she will fight until the very end, no matter how impossible the situation appears.
At the same time, Lalit vents his frustration before Chandrabaga. He complains that instead of treating Rakshit like a criminal, the police practically treated him like an honored guest. Furious that his plan has not unfolded as expected, Lalit declares that he cannot rely on the police anymore. If he truly wants Rakshit to remain behind bars forever, he will have to take matters into his own hands. Determined to finish what he started, Lalit leaves to execute the next phase of his dangerous plan.
Meanwhile, Rakshit quietly walks out of the police station wearing Mohit’s clothes to avoid attracting attention. Knowing that every second matters, he quickly steals a nearby bike and speeds toward the location where he believes Aparajita is being held. As he rides through the streets, his mind races with fear and determination. He keeps replaying Lalit’s words and actions, becoming increasingly convinced that he has finally uncovered the truth.
