But in deep down her heart, she knows that she is keeping this fast for Raghav's well being also. She wants to see him happy.But she does not want to let others know this. So she asks kamla to pack her tiffin for lunch. Kamla feels bad as Kalpi is not ready to give Raghav a chance but it is waste of time to make her understand. she is stubborn and egoistic. But she prays to god to give her daughter some sense.
Kalpi leaves for the office. On her way to office, She goes to temple and sees the married woman are performing rituals for the fast.
She prays to god : 'I don't know the exact rituals but Please Keep Raghav happy. If my fast will keep him happy, then I am ready to keep any fast for him.'

He is angry and hurt and he starts shouting on her
Raghav : Sorry for what ? You are perfect Kalpana. You can't be wrong. It is always me who is wrong. I had broken ur heart and trust. I had broken ur dreams. I had married u forcefully. I had hurt innocent people in my revenge. and you are always the victim of my plans. I am a devil in your eyes. Did you ever try to understand why I did all this.No, Have u ever tried to understand how does it feel to lose ur loved ones becoz of someone's greed. Have u ever tried to understand how does it feel when U had to live alone though your Mother is alive. Do you know how much it hurts when you hurt someone whom you love more than your life. Do you know how you falls low in your own eyes when you hurt innocent people becoz of ur revenge. No, you don't know and you will never understand. Do you know how much it hurts when u have to choose between revenge and love. How much it hurts when u falls low in the eyes of the person whom u love more than yourself.No and you never know. You can trust a stranger but not the person whom u claim to love since 11 years. I have warned you many times about Rahul's attitude but you did not bother to listen to me as you trust Rahul more than me. I had lost my last hope today. you claimed to forgive me but you are not ready to accept me back. I will free u from this forced relationship.You wanted this, right.
Kalpana tries to say something but Raghav gestures her to stop and he starts driving the car.
Kalpana is hurt to hear his sudden outburst. Today he had opened up his every wound to her. Though, she always knows it but hearing all these from his own mouth is heart wrenching. she had hurt him so badly. She is feeling guilty for not trusting him.
Raghav stops the car infront of chawl and takes Kalpana to her home. Kamla is shocked to see Kalpana and Kalpana hugs her mother tightly and starts crying.
