The episode begins with Baldev feeling shattered after witnessing how cruelly his wife treats Khushi. Overcome with emotion, he breaks down, but Khushi consoles him with quiet strength, assuring him that she can handle her stepmother’s harsh behavior.
Wanting to ease his pain, Khushi lovingly feeds him, reminding him of her promise to her late mother—to always take care of him. Despite her young age, Khushi continues to carry this responsibility with deep love and dedication.
Later, at the market, Khushi runs into Krishna, who harbors resentment against her. Irritated by her confidence, he mistakes it for arrogance. Though Khushi ignores him, Krishna, driven by ego, vows to take revenge.
Khushi, who works washing clothes by the roadside, receives a precious saree from a municipal chairperson for cleaning. As she works diligently, Krishna secretly ruins the saree out of spite, leaving her devastated.
When Khushi returns the damaged saree, the chairperson accuses her of negligence and demands ₹1 lakh as compensation. Heartbroken, Khushi struggles to find a solution.
Later, she encounters Krishna again, who hides from her out of guilt. On her way home, Khushi spots her younger sister Sweety with unknown boys, dressed inappropriately. Concerned, she follows her.
Khushi discovers Sweety at a party where two men misbehave with her. Without hesitation, Khushi storms in, fiercely protecting her sister and thrashing the culprits. Terrified, they call Krishna for help—but even he refuses to face Khushi’s fury.
