Arohi’s search for Abhishek leads her to Pari, who is attempting to take advantage of his unconscious state. When questioned, Pari lies that she found him while confirming Kailash’s body at the hospital. Arohi exposes her intentions, reminding her that she is Abhishek’s legally recognized wife and has every right to be with him. Cornered, Pari leaves angrily.
Arohi brings Abhishek back home and attends to him. Anuradha arrives and, influenced by Baba’s ominous warnings, accuses Arohi of endangering her son. She urges her to stay away, but Arohi stands her ground, stating that she has already begun her married life with Abhishek and will not abandon him.
Meanwhile, Pari grows furious over her plan failing. She marks Abhishek with vermilion as a symbolic claim and later tells her father that she will now proceed with her black magic ritual. She is determined to separate Arohi from Abhishek permanently.
While Arohi cares for Abhishek and administers his medicine, Pari secretly casts the spell. The effect is immediate and dangerous. Abhishek becomes uncontrollable, injuring Arohi and strangling her with a dupatta under the spell’s influence. Arohi’s desperate struggle causes the vermilion mark to wipe away, unknowingly disrupting Pari’s ritual.
Pari rushes in, pretending to help while hiding her satisfaction. Anuradha demands an explanation, and Arohi reveals that Abhishek tried to choke her. Shocked, Abhishek sees the dupatta in his own hand, while Pari silently celebrates her successful manipulation.
