Amidst the celebrations, Anupama imparts wisdom about marriage, explaining that in the past, women were often seen as Anugamini, walking behind their husbands. She emphasizes that today’s wives are Sahagamini, partners who walk alongside their husbands, sharing responsibilities and facing life’s challenges together.
Leela brings up the farewell ritual (bidaai), an important tradition marking Prarthana’s transition into her new life. Preet and Bharti note that since Prarthana is already living at the Shah house, the ritual seems redundant, but Leela insists on its significance. Rahi reminds everyone that one more ritual remains—the search for Ansh’s shoes.
The Shah family bursts into a lively dance as Rahi’s team cleverly steals Ansh’s shoes. A playful bargaining session ensues, with Rahi demanding 20,000 rupees, eventually settling as Ansh gives 5,000 rupees to his sisters. Anupama enjoys the antics and encourages the spirit of camaraderie.
During these moments, Anupama reflects on human nature and the challenges of understanding people’s motivations. Meanwhile, Prarthana misses her father, Parag, feeling a sense of loss amid the celebrations. Anupama and Ansh console her, offering support and reassurance.
Leela prompts Prarthana to perform the farewell ritual, emphasizing its emotional importance. Anupama quietly wishes that Parag could be present, sensing that his pride may be keeping him away. Pakhi notices the emotional atmosphere and asks Rahi and Prem why they are so affected. Anil explains that parents experience a deep, silent sense of loss during their daughter’s bidaai, even while in-laws now have primary rights.
Anupama adds that parents have nurtured and protected their daughters throughout life, yet they often hold back their emotions during these transitions. Prem notes that tears of farewell also carry the joy of seeing a daughter find a new partner.
Finally, Parag arrives, attending Prarthana’s farewell. Anupama encourages her to take his blessings. In an emotional gesture, Parag takes Prarthana’s hand and gives it to Ansh, symbolizing his acceptance of their union and blessing their marriage.
Meanwhile, Gautam discusses Parag’s arrival with Vasundhara and Khyati, expressing frustration as Parag prioritizes Prarthana over them. In dramatic fashion, Gautam pretends to harm himself, prompting intervention. Vasundhara asserts her determination to take Prarthana’s baby away, revealing her malicious intentions. Gautam, fueled by resentment, begins plotting against Ansh and Anupama, hinting at future conflict.
The episode ends on an emotional note as Parag breaks down, overwhelmed. Anupama gently reminds him that while parents make mistakes, Prarthana has endured much, and healing and understanding remain possible.
