In a dramatic turn of events, Tulsi is stunned when she sees Mitali, dressed as a bride, proceeding toward the mandap despite Angad’s absence. Confused, she questions Ritik about Angad’s whereabouts, but he is nowhere to be found in the house.
Angad, meanwhile, drives away from Shantiniketan and reaches Vrinda’s home. He reveals how Mitali deceived him again and is sitting in the mandap to force the marriage. He confesses his love for Vrinda and proposes to her, openly declaring that he refuses to marry Mitali even if it costs him his family name or wealth.
Vrinda hesitates, recalling Tulsi’s warning that Mitali will never accept a breakup peacefully. Angad pleads with her, saying he would leave everything behind but would not marry Mitali under any circumstances. Vrinda finally accepts his proposal.
Determined, Angad suggests they marry immediately at a nearby temple, leaving Vrinda shocked by his sudden decision.
Back at Shantiniketan, Tulsi panics as she realizes Angad has fled. She reveals the truth about Mitali’s lies to Ritik and rushes to find him. At Vrinda’s home, she learns that Angad and Vrinda have gone to a temple. At the same time, Vrinda’s mother informs a media contact, inviting reporters to capture the unexpected wedding.
At the temple, Angad and Vrinda begin their pheras just as Tulsi arrives. The media confronts her, while the Virani family remains tense, unaware of Angad and Tulsi’s location. Before Tulsi can intervene, Angad fills Vrinda’s forehead with sindoor.
News of the temple wedding soon reaches Mihir, leaving him shocked—especially upon learning that Tulsi was present during the ceremony.
