Back at the Goenka house, wedding preparations are in full swing. Ruhi insists that Abhir join her for a dance. In another moment, Armaan advises Sanjay to treasure Charu before she leaves for her new life.

Vidya is left shaken when she receives Shivani’s picture. Unable to process the emotions flooding her mind, she immediately hides it from Madhav and Armaan. She turns to Kaveri, her distress evident.

She instructs Vidya to welcome the Goenkas with dignity.
As the Goenkas step into the Poddar house, Armaan scans the crowd for Abhira. When he asks Ruhi about her, Ruhi mentions that Abhira was with RK but seemed uneasy. Growing more concerned, Armaan turns to RK for answers. RK claims he doesn’t know where Abhira is but expresses hope that she finds the photograph soon.
