At the restaurant, Punit lashes out at the staff for deciding the menu without his permission. He arrogantly reminds everyone that he is the head chef. As he is about to throw the food away in anger, Vickrant stops him and questions how he could disrespect food like that.
Punit argues that someone finalized the menu without consulting him. Vickrant calmly but firmly replies that he should have been present on time if he wanted control over such decisions.
Punit boasts about his fame and says they should feel lucky that he agreed to work with them. Vickrant, unimpressed, makes it clear that he is not indispensable and that he can easily hire another chef. He refuses to tolerate arrogance in his restaurant.
Punit challenges him, claiming that anyone can speak big words but not everyone can cook like him. Vickrant’s assistant intervenes, saying that Vickrant does not need to prove anything because he is the owner.
Later, Aishwarya continues to manipulate Mallika, insisting that Mannat is using her for money. Mallika strongly defends Mannat, saying she is a genuine friend who does not care about wealth. Aishwarya dismisses her, calling her naïve and emotional. She nearly reveals something about her past in comparison to Mannat, but stops herself and asks Mallika to leave. Internally, she becomes more determined, believing that Mannat’s presence is stirring up her past, and vows not to spare her.
Back at the restaurant, Vickrant tells Punit that this is a workplace, not a battleground for ego clashes. He emphasizes that the goal is to serve food that makes customers feel at home. His composed but firm stance effectively puts Punit in his place.
Meanwhile, Shruthi regains consciousness and shares her fears with Mannat, but Mannat misunderstands her concern as being about the interview. Harneet reassures her that she will succeed.
Later, Vickrant’s father calls him and complains about his lack of communication. Vickrant explains that he is busy with the restaurant opening. He questions why Punit was allowed to join despite their strained relationship. His father reminds him that Punit is family and asks him to adjust and take care of Rajendran’s family, to which Vickrant reluctantly agrees.
Aishwarya arrives and learns that Mannat has been selected. Pretending ignorance, she reviews her profile and approves her selection, hiding her true intentions.
At home, Shruthi shares her fears with Harneet, insisting that Sonia is capable of going to any extreme if she discovers the truth.
Meanwhile, Aishwarya meets Punit and subtly manipulates him. She fuels his ego and provokes him against Mannat. Punit, already irritated, promises that Mannat will not pass the next round. Aishwarya smirks, satisfied with her plan.
Later, Aishwarya instructs Mallika to stay close to Vickrant at all times and not reveal anything unnecessary. When Mallika accompanies them, Vickrant is surprised. Aishwarya explains that she is teaching her business so she can learn quickly.
In the kitchen, Punit assigns tasks aggressively. Mannat prays silently for success. He deliberately gives her difficult work to intimidate her. Under pressure, she accidentally cuts her finger. Despite this, Punit coldly orders her to continue chopping vegetables without any concern.
At the same time, Aishwarya watches Vickrant and Mallika together, feeling satisfied with her plan, while the tension around Mannat continues to rise.
