The doctor allows a brief visit under strict instructions not to disturb him. Inside, Zoon asks Ritesh to wake up. When he does not respond, she innocently asks whether he is going to heaven like “Gannu bhaiya” and declares she will go with him if that is true. Indu is shaken and reassures her that Ritesh is only resting and will soon return as her “genie papa.” They sit on the sofa and eventually fall asleep.
The next morning, Vivek offers to take Indu home to freshen up, but Dolly requests her to stay, saying the family needs her. Indu agrees. Zoon, meanwhile, quietly goes to the temple in the house. She questions Lord Ganesha for punishing Ritesh and, in anger, places the idol inside a bowl of water, declaring it will remain there until Ritesh recovers.
Indu attempts to correct her, but Dolly suggests letting the child express her faith. Kaamna then approaches Zoon and deliberately manipulates her. She narrates a fabricated childhood story, claiming she once fasted for her father’s recovery and only then did God listen. Influenced, Zoon vows not to eat until Ritesh regains consciousness. Kaamna leaves satisfied.
Elsewhere, Vivaan confronts and physically attacks Sameer for attempting to kill Ritesh, warning him about potential consequences involving Kadambari. Sameer grows furious. Later, he meets Magesh and informs him that Kadambari wants Ritesh’s chapter closed permanently. Although Magesh initially refuses to risk himself again, Sameer persuades him with a new plan.
Back at the mansion, Indu tries feeding Zoon, but the child refuses, revealing her vow. Indu pleads with her not to fast, fearing for her health, yet Zoon remains firm.
Suddenly, Ritesh’s condition deteriorates. The doctor announces his pulse is dropping and begins emergency intervention. Machines start failing one by one, signaling cardiac arrest. Despite efforts, the doctor ultimately declares that he could not save Ritesh. The room falls silent as the Malhotra and Raina families stare at him in disbelief, overwhelmed with grief.
Precap: Zoon pleads with Ritesh to wake up, fearing she will again be mocked at school for not having a father. She promises never to trouble him and then collapses unconscious. Indu rushes to her in panic.
