Abhira faces an angry crowd accusing her of spreading fake visuals. Standing strong, she acknowledges the clip is fabricated and highlights how she and Arman have endured the fallout far longer than the viewers who reacted impulsively. A woman blames technology, but Abhira clarifies that AI is not the enemy. She emotionally explains how it once fulfilled her wish of seeing herself with Akshara, Abhinav, and Abhir in a single family photo—something she never experienced in reality. The real problem, she says, is people like Varun who misuse the tool for manipulation.
Abhira urges the public to think before sharing videos that can damage lives. She exposes Varun’s intent to spark outrage. When the inspector arrives, she and Arman demand strict action. Varun panics as his eyes meet Tanya’s.
Later, Abhira and Arman enjoy a tender moment before Myra approaches to apologize for misjudging them. Determined to lift the Poddar family’s gloomy atmosphere, the couple brainstorms ideas until Myra mentions Children’s Day, sparking a plan.
Kaveri expresses regret for almost disowning Abhira and Arman. They comfort her with light-hearted jokes. Abhira suggests a Children’s Day celebration, but Sanjay declines due to work. However, Myra convinces Krish and Tanya, and Kaveri nudges Vidya to talk Kajal into attending. Kajal finally agrees, wanting the family to stay united.
Vidya then prepares lunch and asks Tanya about her preferences, but Kajal insists she will cook for her. Vidya compliments Kajal’s brooch, learning Tanya gifted it. Tanya tries to stop her from wearing it, but Kajal refuses. Vidya praises the financial independence of Abhira, Tanya, and Ruhi—adding that while Abhira and Ruhi had support systems, Tanya built herself on her own. The remark visibly rattles Tanya, who fears her secrets may soon come out.
