Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Aishwarya runs a truck over Shruthi, Mannat shattered on seeing her lifeless body

Tonight's Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki episode opens on an emotional note as Mannat breaks down in front of Dhairya, saying how easily Vikrant can hurt her. She feels that he has already distanced himself and ended all ties with her. Dhairya tries to calm her down and assures her that things will eventually settle, but Mannat is too shaken to believe that.

Vishaka’s Pictures Deepen Vikrant’s Misunderstanding

Mannat reveals that Vishaka showed Vikrant a few pictures of her and Dhairya. One was clicked when Dhairya congratulated her, while the other showed her tending to his injury. Seeing these photos, Vikrant immediately jumped to conclusions and began doubting her character. He assumed she was having an affair with Dhairya, which completely shattered her.

Mannat says she is terrified that Vikrant will soon question her about the father of her unborn child. The thought alone suffocates her. Dhairya is unable to hear her pain any longer, but Mannat reminds him that she had to endure Vikrant's harsh accusations alone.

She feels there is nothing left worth saving in her relationship anymore. Mannat now wants answers about her real mother and believes that she should stop begging Vikrant to accept her. Dhairya guesses that Mannat might go to Mezbani to meet Vikrant and clear things out.

Aishwarya and Vishaka Set a Deadly Trap for Shruthi

At the same time, a dark turn unfolds elsewhere as Aishwarya leaves Shruthi abandoned in the middle of a deserted road. Vishaka grows anxious and worries that someone might spot them, but Aishwarya confidently assures her that no one will come there as there are no CCTV cameras around.

Meanwhile, Vikrant is busy cooking at Mezbani, yet his mind keeps drifting back to Mannat and the words she once said to him. Back at the seashore, Mannat tells Dhairya that her life started near this very place and feels that it might also end here. Dhairya notices the weather changing and warns her that it is about to rain, urging her to leave with him.

Aishwarya’s Dark Past and Shocking Confession

Elsewhere, Shruthi is desperately struggling to survive. Vishaka stands terrified, while Aishwarya heartlessly hits Shruthi with a speeding truck. Severely injured, Shruthi struggles to breathe. Aishwarya coldly tells her that killing her was never the plan, but Shruthi deserved this fate. She blames Shruthi for always crushing her dreams. Aishwarya admits she always wanted wealth and power and sees nothing wrong in that ambition. She angrily recalls how she once abandoned Mannat to die, only for Shruthi to save her and raise her as her own. She questions why both Shruthi and Mannat re-entered her life and ruined everything.

Aishwarya further confesses that she had wanted to kill both Mannat and Shruthi that very night, but her young age stopped her back then. Now, she orders Shruthi to die. In her final moments, Shruthi prays for Mannat. She believes that Mannat must not lose hope and should fight for justice no matter how powerful her enemies are. Shruthi has faith that God will protect Mannat and give her the strength to raise her child with dignity. She believes that truth will ultimately prevail. With these thoughts, Shruthi breathes her last. Aishwarya mockingly praises her and walks away without remorse.

Thunder Rekindles Mannat and Vikrant’s Shared Memory

Suddenly, Mannat grows restless and repeatedly calls out for her mother. The loud sound of thunder frightens her deeply. Dhairya asks what is wrong, and Mannat explains that she has always been scared of thunder, a fear only her mother knew about. She recalls how, during her first meeting with Vikrant, she got scared by the same sound, and he encouraged her to face her fear. That moment made her feel an unexplainable bond with him. Lost in memories, she recalls their shared moments together.
