Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Boby confesses his feelings to Mannat, threatens to harm her like he did Shalini

Tonight's Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki episode starts with Boby confronting Mannat, telling her he had been waiting for her arrival. Mannat, standing protectively in front of Adit, doesn't back down. Boby accuses her of tarnishing his reputation and disrespecting his image in society. Mannat responds with determination, saying he never deserved any respect to begin with.

Boby, unfazed by her anger, tells her that he enjoys seeing her this way and he wanted to come close to her from the day he saw her. Hearing this, Mannat attempts to slap him, but he grabs her wrist mid-air. He mocks her by commenting on her soft hands, saying they're only good for grinding spices and threatens to subject her to the same torment he inflicted on Shalini. Mannat sharply retorts that she knows exactly how to grind spices—and deal with men like him.

In a quick move, she scolds him and sprays pepper spray directly into his eyes, temporarily blinding him. Seizing the moment, she hurls nearby objects at him and flees the scene with Aditya. As they make their escape in an auto-rickshaw, Boby's goons try to pursue them, only to realise that Mannat had cleverly punctured their car tyres, making a chase impossible. Furious, Boby vows not to let them go unpunished and immediately calls Aishwarya to update her on what just happened.

Meanwhile, Mannat contacts Shalini to inform her that she has successfully rescued Adit and reassures her not to be afraid anymore. She encourages Shalini to stand firm and reveal Boby's true face in front of everyone.

Shalini asks Mannat to bring Adit to the Saluja house instead of taking him to the police station. She explains that the police have already arrived there for a press conference, and it would be best to speak the truth publicly. Adit also speaks to Shalini, promising that he is strong and unafraid.

Elsewhere, Vikrant is at home, concerned about Mannat's whereabouts. He calls Harneet, asking why Mannat hasn't reached Delhi yet. Harneet pretends to be clueless. Disappointed and suspicious, Vikrant accuses her of hiding the truth and warns that if Mannat breaks her word, he won't hesitate to take legal action against her. He ends the call in frustration.

At the Saluja house, preparations for the press conference are underway, and journalists are present, eager for answers. A reporter questions Shalini about who the real culprit is. Just then, Mannat arrives with Adit, leaving Vikrant visibly disturbed by their presence.

Shalini embraces Adit emotionally. Mannat encourages her not to fear anyone and to expose the reality. Kiran accuses Mannat of arriving only to stir trouble. Vikrant silently hopes Mannat doesn't speak against his family in front of the media.

As the reporters press Shalini for the truth, they directly ask whether Boby is the one Mannat had accused. But to everyone's shock, Shalini denies it and instead claims Derik is responsible. Mannat pleads with her to tell the truth, but Shalini insists she's speaking of her own free will and that no one has pressured her into saying otherwise.

Vikrant tries to cut in, but Mallika stops him. He then lashes out at Mannat, questioning her motives—first accusing the family of harassment and now kidnapping. He sarcastically asks if murder will be the next allegation. He accuses her of portraying the family as criminals.

Aishwarya joins in, claiming that Mannat was never interested in helping Shalini and instead conspired with Derik. She brings up that Mannat is staying in their outhouse, using their money for her mother's treatment, and in return, she's maligning them. Mannat retorts that no amount of money can bury the truth. She reveals that Shalini was being threatened and manipulated, even to the extent of her brother being abducted just to change her statement.

A reporter sides with Mannat, agreeing with her stand. Mannat then questions the family's intentions behind organising a press conference. She reminds them that by revealing Shalini's identity, they've jeopardised her future and the safety of other female staff. Aishwarya defends their actions, claiming they provided secure transport to and from the restaurant. She also announces that Shalini is set to marry Puneet.
