Abhira and Arman’s Tense Moment
Arman unexpectedly bumps into Abhira and casually asks if she has completed her form. Abhira explains that she planned to fill it out but got distracted after an argument with Tanya while advising Kiara. She assures him that she will complete it later. Before their conversation can continue, Abhir calls her, and Abhira steps aside to answer the urgent call.
Abhir’s Concern for Kiara Touches Abhira
During the call, Abhira learns that Abhir has injured himself while preparing a surprise for his baby. Abhir emotionally shares how he always wanted his own room as a child and now wishes to give his baby everything he never had. Wanting to ensure Kiara receives proper care, he even hires a nanny to look after her.
Touched, Abhira gently asks whether his love for Kiara is that deep. Abhir, without hesitation, replies that his love for Kiara is unconditional.
Manisha Forces Kiara Into Marriage
Meanwhile, Manisha pressures Kiara to agree to a marriage she does not want. A confused and scared Kiara tries to resist, but Manisha stays firm.
Abhira steps in and tells Manisha that she cannot force Kiara to marry a stranger. However, Manisha warns Abhira to stay out of her personal matters, refusing to accept any advice.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Abhira decides that she cannot allow Manisha to ruin Kiara’s life. She vows to stop the forced marriage at any cost.
Arman and Tanya Discover the Chaos
As preparations for Kiara’s wedding begin, Tanya grows anxious. Arman and Tanya are stunned when they see the arrangements. Kiara finally gathers the courage to tell Manisha that she doesn’t want to marry.
Instead of calming down, Manisha emotionally manipulates Kiara by asking whether she would prefer to marry Abhir instead.
Arman steps in and reminds Manisha that no one has the right to force Kiara into a marriage. But Manisha threatens that if Kiara refuses, she will end her own life. The entire Poddar family is shocked, and Manisha demands they support her decision.
Ajay’s Alliance Shocks the Poddars
Ajay and his mother arrive to meet Kiara. Kaveri quickly realizes that Ajay is nearly twice Kiara’s age. Even then, Manisha aggressively pushes the alliance forward. Ajay questions Kiara about her education, and he and his mother seem satisfied with her answers.
Just then, Abhira makes a bold entrance — bringing Abhir’s alliance for Kiara instead.
Feeling insulted, Ajay and his mother storm out.

The Poddar family lashes out at Abhira, accusing her of siding only with Abhir. Manisha calls her selfish, and even Vidya and Kaveri turn against her.

Manisha drags Kiara away before she can say more.
