Meanwhile, Abhira rushes to the car and calls out to Armaan, while Kaveri and Vidya manage to save a flickering diya. Armaan arrives, and Abhira rushes to hug him, expressing concern for his well-being and the condition of the car. Their banter continues as Abhira suggests Armaan could afford to buy a car showroom while Armaan jests that she could manage driving an auto. Suwarna and Manish engage in a heated argument, with Surekha suggesting they involve Kaveri to keep Armaan out of the matter.

As Armaan and Abhira travel in an auto rickshaw, Abhira shares her promise to Parnanu regarding helping Ruhi move on, emphasizing the importance of their task. Armaan, feeling protective, urges the driver to be cautious, leading to a minor dispute between him and Abhira. Their disagreement escalates when Armaan insists on avoiding Manav and Ruhi's remarriage, prompting Abhira to recall Manish's words and decide to confront the situation head-on. The tension between Armaan and Abhira reaches a peak, resulting in Armaan abruptly leaving the auto after a brief struggle with their tangled bags.

Meanwhile, Vidya inquires about Abhira's absence, and Charu explains her involvement in Nanisa's case. Ruhi appears preoccupied as she serves tea to the family, prompting Dadi to inquire about her thoughts regarding Armaan. Armaan arrives, and Dadi questions him about his opinion on Manav for Ruhi. Amidst the conversation, Armaan receives a call from Manish, which further complicates the situation.

Elsewhere, Abhira encounters a distressed lady seeking help for her hospitalized husband, reaffirming her commitment to assisting people through her firm's efforts. Armaan, distressed by the events, retreats upstairs, while Abhira walks alone on the road, leading to a heart-stopping moment where she narrowly avoids a collision. Ruhi intervenes to prevent disaster, and tensions rise as Armaan confronts Ruhi about her discussion with Dadi regarding meeting Manav.

The scene shifts to the hospital, where Armaan rushes to Abhira's side upon learning of her accident. Amidst the chaos, Armaan struggles with filling out necessary forms and grapples with his emotions, haunted by Abhira's recent words.
