Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Mallika gets drunk and nearly reveals her and Aishwarya's secret

Tonight's Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki episode opens with Vikrant assisting Mannat as she retrieves the ring. She expresses her gratitude toward him. In his mind, Vikrant reflects on how Mannat always seems to have choices, yet he believes she'll ultimately side with the truth. Elsewhere, Mallika is seen enjoying herself at a lively gathering with her friends. One of them teases her, saying she's finally won over Vikrant. Amidst laughter and drinks, the celebration continues.

Mannat arrives to hand over the ring to Mallika. Spotting her unharmed, Mallika appears disappointed. She sarcastically asks Mannat if she didn't fall as expected, but Mannat doesn't catch it due to the blaring music. Just then, Vikrant walks in, and the UV lights switch on, unexpectedly highlighting Mannat's fingerprints on his face and clothes.

Mallika's friends begin mocking Vikrant. At the same time, Mallika notices that Mannat's hands are glowing under the light, too. Suspiciously, she questions her about it, her tone laced with mockery. Feeling cornered, Mannat tries to hide her hands. Mallika, feeling betrayed, accuses Mannat of lying to her. She reminds her that despite repeatedly asking, Mannat always denied having feelings for Vikrant. She demands to know why Mannat is now getting close to her fiancé. Mannat attempts to explain, but Mallika lashes out and yells at her to stay silent.

Mallika's anger escalates as she accuses Mannat of trying to steal Vikrant away, labelling her a gold digger just like her mother once warned. Humiliated, Mannat remains speechless. In her rage, Mallika raises her hand to slap her, but Vikrant steps in just in time and grabs her wrist, warning her not to cross the line. Mallika furiously questions whether he is defending Mannat over her. Vikrant's temper is on edge, and as Mallika nearly exposes a secret, Aishwarya intervenes. Apologising to Vikrant on Mallika's behalf, she explains that Mallika is drunk and escorts her away.

Once in a private room, Aishwarya scolds Mallika, urging her not to ruin everything by revealing too much. She insists that Mallika stay inside and rest.

Meanwhile, Mannat tells Shalini that this is no time to dwell on emotions and she must expose Aishwarya. She's determined to head to the colony and retrieve the crucial evidence. Elsewhere, Vikrant broods over Mallika's behaviour and notices Mannat leaving. He assumes she's leaving because of him and decides to follow her.

Just as Neetu hands him a juice, he drinks it, unaware of its effects. She silently thinks that her plan has worked and Vikrant won't be able to act on anything under the influence of the drink.

Back at the colony, Ravinder informs Aishwarya that only one studio remains where they can search. Mannat keeps an eye on their every move. Shalini skillfully distracts Ravinder to buy Mannat more time.

As Aishwarya rummages through the photos, Shalini resists Mannat's request to leave, insisting she'll stay. Vikrant arrives at the colony but suddenly collapses due to the juice's impact. Meanwhile, Mannat and Shalini overpower Aishwarya and tie her to a chair.
