Dadi playfully silences Karan and compliments Lakshmi’s natural beauty, urging her to stop wearing spectacles. Karan reveals he had the glasses checked and they have zero power, insisting she looks better without them. Though uneasy, Lakshmi goes to prepare tea. Unbeknownst to her, Vyom records her secretly from behind a pillar. Sensing someone’s presence, Lakshmi grows tense but finds no one.
She then bumps into Karthik and confides that she feels someone wants to harm her. Barkha dismisses her concerns and accuses her of manipulating both her brother and Karthik. She warns Lakshmi to stay away or face dire consequences.
Later, Dadi suggests postponing their trip as Lakshmi shouldn’t be left alone, but Karan insists she can manage. Lakshmi agrees and sends them off.
Once alone, Lakshmi is rattled when someone breaks her window with a stone. A distorted male voice warns her to stay within limits. Her phone is missing, and the landline is disconnected. As she searches for help, Vyom, wearing a mask, cuts the power and tries to assault her. Lakshmi fights back with all her strength.
Dadi grows uneasy and persuades Karan to return. A call informs them the doctor has left, prompting them to rush home. Meanwhile, Lakshmi manages to stab Vyom’s arm with a knife, forcing him to flee moments before Karan and Dadi arrive.
They return to a house in chaos, finding Lakshmi trembling in fear. She breaks down in Karan’s arms and recounts the horrifying ordeal. Dadi vows to ensure the attacker is punished.
