Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Mannat almost reveals to Vikrant that Dua is his daughter

Tonight's Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki episode opens with Vikrant arriving unexpectedly and declaring that he has come to take Dua back with him. His statement leaves Mannat stunned. She immediately questions his audacity and lashes out at him. Dhairya and Roni are equally shaken by Vikrant’s sudden insistence. They begin to worry that if he stays longer, he might uncover the hidden truth about Dua. Mannat, meanwhile, assumes that Vikrant has come to reclaim his daughter and this thought disturbs her deeply.

Dua pulls Dhairya aside to show him a poster that features her. Guddi is surprised on seeing it, while Dhairya quickly understands the real motive behind Vikrant’s visit. Mannat confronts Vikrant and reminds him that he had once disowned Dua. She tells him clearly that he has no right over her now because Dua is her daughter. Vikrant is confused by Mannat’s intense reaction and silently wonders why she is behaving in such a defensive manner. Just as Mannat is about to reveal that Dua is actually his daughter, Dhairya stops her in time and takes her away, to show her the poster.

Dua later tells Mannat that she has no idea how everything unfolded so suddenly. Vikrant admits that even he is unsure how the situation escalated, but the fact remains that Dua disrupted Yuvi’s photoshoot and ended up securing a spot in the competition. Since she has officially entered it, he insists she must participate. Mannat remains quiet, clearly conflicted.

Vikrant then states that although it may have been an accident, someone must take responsibility. He bluntly asks them to name the compensation amount. Mannat is furious and questions whether he sees Dua as an object that can be bought with money. She refuses to put a price on her child and makes it clear that she would never sell her daughter for any amount. Vikrant mocks her stance, which angers Roni, who raises his voice against him. Mannat firmly declares that unlike Vikrant, she does not value money over relationships. She announces that Dua will not participate in the competition and they owe him nothing.

Elsewhere, Aishwarya discusses her plan with Mallika to expose Yashika during the upcoming party. Vishaka promises to closely observe Yashika’s parents and is confident she can uncover any fraudulent background. Deepak arrives to collect old clothes, and Mallika makes fun of Vishaka for still keeping them. Aishwarya remarks sarcastically that poverty is not easy to erase from someone’s mindset. She then informs them that Mannat has returned and insists that Yashika’s chapter must be closed at the party itself.

Back at home, Dua tells Mannat that perhaps this opportunity has come as a blessing from God and maybe she is meant to participate in the competition. Mannat asks her not to get carried away by such thoughts. Dhairya notices Vikrant constantly looking at Mannat and senses there is more to his visit. He believes Vikrant wants to help Neetu but also understands that Mannat will never willingly send Dua with him. Vikrant, on the other hand, feels they are deliberately hiding something important from him.

The tension rises when Vikrant threatens to file a legal case against Dua for ruining the photoshoot. Mannat strongly condemns him for targeting a child just to satisfy his ego. She refuses to bow down to his threats and confronts him boldly. At the same time, Neetu’s health suddenly deteriorates. Mannat rushes to her side in panic.

The doctor informs them that unless the pending hospital payment is cleared immediately, the treatment will be stopped. Mannat breaks down and pleads for Neetu’s life to be saved. Vikrant finds himself torn between his anger and his concern, unsure how to support both Neetu and Mannat without revealing his emotions.

In the precap, Mannat is anxious about arranging funds for Neetu’s surgery. Vikrant steps forward with a proposal, he is ready to cover the expenses, but only if Mannat agrees to let Dua participate in the competition.
