Armaan encourages her to enjoy her present moments as well, reminding her that she should not miss out on life’s little joys while preparing for her future.

Kabir, however, says that he has a lot to accomplish and no longer wants to waste time getting caught up in emotions. Nandani is surprised by his changed behaviour and feels that he has become distant.
Aarushi later informs Maira that Kabir will also be visiting the flea market. At the same time, Vasu tells Kabir that Maira is planning to visit the same place. Both are taken aback by the news and immediately make it clear that they do not wish to meet each other. When Vasu questions Kabir, he explains that he does not want to face Maira.
Maira also maintains that they have decided to respect their parents’ wishes and that meeting each other could weaken their resolve. Despite their feelings, both remain firm about staying away from one another.
Armaan later tells Abhira that Maira did not go to the flea market because she is busy studying for her entrance examination. He appreciates her dedication and hard work. Meanwhile, Krish realises that the family will not let him escape the situation until he reveals the truth to Armaan and Abhira. To divert everyone’s attention, he begins planning something else.
Maira struggles to concentrate on her studies as memories of Kabir continue to trouble her. Sensing her distraction, Krish approaches her with an idea and convinces her to organise a Dandiya night with the Poddars. Maira likes the suggestion and becomes excited about the celebrations.
Armaan, however, is concerned that last year’s Dandiya night might bring back painful memories. When Maira asks him what happened during the previous year’s celebration, Armaan recalls the incident when he had hit Abhira during the Dandiya night. Worried about Abhira, he wonders whether the past could repeat itself.

As the preparations for Dandiya night continue, Maira asks Abhira whether she can get ready for the celebration.

Meanwhile, Kaveri warns Vidya not to spoil the happy moment between Abhira and Maira.
The situation takes a dramatic turn when Armaan discovers that Krish was the one who manipulated Maira into running away and encouraged her to have a court marriage. Enraged by the revelation, Armaan loses his temper and hits Krish. Sanjay immediately calls for help as the confrontation escalates.
