Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Mannat to completely cut Vikrant out of Dua’s life post custody win

Tonight's Mannat Har Khushi Paani Ki episode opens with Mannat informing Dhairya that Vikrant has officially filed a custody case for Dua, and the court hearing is scheduled for the same day. Dhairya is shocked and says this proves Vikrant’s real intentions. He reminds Mannat that Vikrant had promised just a day ago that he would not fight for custody, but now he has gone back on his word. Mannat tries to calm Dhairya down, worried that Dua might overhear their conversation. Meanwhile, Dua senses that her mother is tense. Roni quickly takes Dua away from the situation.

On the other side, Mallika tells Yashika that Vikrant has completely destroyed her happiness by taking this step. Mannat, overwhelmed with anger, calls out Vikrant’s name loudly. Neetu steps in and tries to pacify her. Mannat questions Neetu sharply, asking why Vikrant has filed for Dua’s custody when he had promised otherwise. She feels betrayed and says he has broken his promise.

Neetu explains that Vikrant is doing what he believes is right for everyone. She says this is his home, Dua is his daughter, and even this house belongs to her. She questions why Mannat is continuing a relationship with Dhairya and living a life that she may not truly be happy with. Neetu insists that it is time to bring clarity and end the confusion. Hurt and disappointed, Dhairya walks away from the situation.

Mannat firmly tells Neetu that she will not allow Vikrant to take her daughter away from her. She declares that Dua is her child and she has every right to make decisions for her. She questions Vikrant’s thinking and says she will never forgive him. Neetu again asks her to stay calm. Mannat recalls how everything ended between her and Vikrant the day he made her sign papers during Shruthi’s funeral. Mallika smirks hearing this.

Neetu tries to justify Vikrant’s actions, saying he does not want to separate Dua from Mannat. She even shows proof that Vikrant had enrolled Dua in a summer class. Mannat immediately questions whether Neetu and Vikrant planned everything together. She insists she knows the truth and refuses to believe Vikrant is always right. Mannat says she and Dhairya have faced many struggles together, and they will face this challenge too. She confidently declares that she will defeat Vikrant in court and he will lose.

Neetu silently prays that Vikrant and Mannat reunite. Meanwhile, Mallika tells Yashika that Mannat is playing a clever game to stay in the house, while Yashika feels Neetu is the one behind everything.

Elsewhere, Dhairya is deeply hurt. Mannat approaches him to talk, but he claps sarcastically and asks what role he really plays in her life. He accuses her of planning everything with Vikrant just to push him out. He believes Mannat wants to stay close to Vikrant and is using the custody case as a strategy. Mannat strongly denies all accusations.

Dhairya continues blaming her, saying she and Vikrant are together in this plan to separate Dua from him. Mannat defends herself and clearly says she is ready to fight Vikrant in court and will not let him take Dua away. Dhairya, emotional and angry, asks why she always calls Dua only her daughter and never includes him. He reminds her that he raised Dua with love and she means everything to him. He refuses to let anyone take Dua away.

Just then, Yashika meets Vikrant. Vikrant apologizes for hiding the truth and says he feels ashamed. He admits it is unfair to Yashika. She asks him if he still loves Mannat, and Vikrant honestly says he never stopped loving her. Yashika understands his emotions and offers to support him as a friend, which he appreciates.

Meanwhile, Dhairya continues to misunderstand Mannat and accuses her of delaying their plans and supporting Vikrant emotionally. He believes Vikrant took advantage of the situation and filed for custody. Mannat tries to explain herself, but Dhairya remains upset and says he will take Dua away. At that moment, Dua arrives.

In the precap, Mannat confronts Neetu directly and warns her that no one can take her daughter away. She declares that she will fight Vikrant in court and once she wins, she will not allow him to meet Dua again.
