Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin: Srichand proves Savi's innocence, but denies killing Rajat

Tonight's Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin episode starts with Bhagyashree attempting to force Savi out of the house. However, Savi stands her ground and firmly states that no one can separate her from her children. She reminds Bhagyashree that she is their legal guardian and refuses to let them be taken to the United States.

Tara lashes out at Savi, questioning her ability to raise the children due to her rumoured relationship with Neil. Aniket steps in to pacify the situation, but Tara loses her cool and yells at him instead. Just then, Neil intervenes, challenging the idea of fleeing with the children. He insists that the custody battle should be resolved legally in court.

Srichand counters Neil's argument by pointing out that Savi has been suspended from her job indefinitely, and no one knows if or when she'll be reinstated. He claims Savi is unfit to care for the children and assures that Bhagyashree, with his support, will win the custody case.

Savi hits back, reminding everyone of Srichand's dark past, particularly his involvement in her husband's death. Tara immediately jumps to defend Srichand, insisting that only their family deserves custody of the kids.

Trying one last time, Savi pleads with Bhagyashree to reconsider, but Srichand cuts her off coldly, affirming that Bhagyashree will be the one getting custody. As he starts to walk away, Neil stops Savi from begging any further, telling her she doesn't need to lower herself in front of anyone for her own children.

Confused, Savi asks Neil what he means. Neil then leads her to the prayer space and in a bold move, applies sindoor in her hairline. The family stands in stunned silence as Neil declares their sudden marriage. He proclaims that Savi is now his legally wedded wife, Mrs. Savi Pradhan. He adds that she is no longer alone, she has him and his family by her side. Addressing Tara, he says that his and Savi's bond is now legal.

Neil further asserts that with his backing, Savi will gain custody of the kids, while Srichand's criminal activities will work against their side in court.

Just then, little Sai appears with her bags packed. Hugging Savi, she innocently asks if they're heading to the USA together. Savi gently replies that they are all staying here as a family. Sai smiles with relief and thanks her.

Suddenly, police sirens echo outside. Neil looks at Srichand and says that while the family refused to trust them, the authorities did. The Police Commissioner arrives with his team and instructs Bhakti to arrest Srichand on charges of kidnapping and money laundering.

In a state of panic, Srichand grabs Sai and holds her hostage. Chaos erupts. Neil pleads for Sai's release, but Srichand refuses to let her go. Bhagyashree steps forward, emotionally urging Srichand to let go of the child and trust her once again.

Srichand confesses that all the allegations made by Savi are indeed true. He admits he lured Rajat into illegal dealings and was behind Ridhi's abduction. However, he denies killing Rajat and claims someone else was responsible.

Devastated, Bhagyashree demands to know why he wreaked such havoc on their lives. Srichand then reveals a painful past, years ago, Bhagyashree's husband, Rajendra Thakkar, testified against his father, Mahendra Goel, for theft of ?5-6 lakhs. As a result, Mahendra was jailed. Unable to bear the shame, Mahendra took his own life. The trauma also led to his mother's death, leaving Srichand orphaned. He explains that since then, he had been waiting to avenge his parents' deaths by destroying the Thakkar family.

He adds that he took advantage of their move to Nagpur, orchestrated by Savi, to finally execute his plan. He confesses that Savi always stood in the way of his revenge, so he tried to tarnish her image using a manipulated video. Srichand blames her for siding with the truth and even accuses her of putting Sai's life in danger.

Savi pleads with him not to harm Sai, but Srichand declares that he will use the girl as leverage to escape, ensuring that she never sees her daughter again.

At that critical moment, Neil stealthily approaches and manages to grab Srichand. Sai escapes and rushes back to her mother. A violent tussle breaks out between Neil and Srichand over the gun. In the scuffle, the weapon goes off, Neil is shot near the neck and falls, hitting his head hard on the ground. The screen fades to black.
