Vikram asks Shobha to think who sent her to the balcony. Shobha thinks that she had gone to Balcony to do Sarika's work but if she tells Vikram that then he will start doubting Sarika. Shobha thinks that Sarika is already surrounded with problems, she cannot add to it. Vikram asks her what is she thinking so much. Shobha says she had gone to balcony to remove the clothes which were drying outside. Vikram thinks that he had thought it was probably Samarth but his inner instinct is now telling him its Sarika. Sharda comes with Green Tea for both. Vikram tells her he doesn't drink Green Tea, Shobha knows he prefers Coffee. Shobha says why not, Vikram will green tea with her. He says he doesn't drink healthy things. She asks him who gave her medicines, he says Sharda. Shobha tells him he has to drink green tea with her. Both drink it and Vikram looks at Shobha and thinks that he was scared of Love for all these years but now that he has fallen in Love, he has fallen deeply.
Sarika is walking at night and she is happy that she disposed the screw driver. Then she says she should have disposed Shobha's body too. A car comes and stops in front of her. Vikram gets out of it. He comes near her and tells her he knows all her games. He tells her she will have to tell him everything. He asks her why she was trying to kill Shobha. Sarika gets shocked to hear it. He says he knows she tried to kill Sarika. The screws on the railings were loose because of which Shobha could have died. Then he remembers that her husband was killed in the same way. He says he can't believe he fell in love with a criminal, murderer like her. He says first Mumbai and then Delhi, she murdering people. He starts shaking her and tells her she will have to confess. She finally confesses and says she did it. Vikram leaves her. Then she says, how can he even think she will hurt his Bhabhi. And Abhay was her husband, he fulfilled their marriage. She couldn't even think about killing him. Then he asks her why was she carrying a screwdriver. She tells him to let it be, he wont trust her. Vikram leaves from there.
Shobha comes to meet Garima and Garima tells her why she took so much trouble. She is not keeping well and on top of that this incident happened with her. Shobha tells her she has frgetten about the incident. She was the one who got Sanjay and Garima married, and if there are issues in their marriage, she should be there to help them. She says she had come to talk to Sanjay but he is not in the house. She tells Garima that men are like that, they get nervous during the first child. They start questioning everything. She tells Garima that she will have to understand. Once the baby comes, their bond will grow stronger. Sanju's Bhabhi is eavesdropping from outside. Shobha tells Garima that the child is her responsibility, she should see to it that no harm is don't to the child. She will have to protect the child from outside world as well as herself. She says she will come and talk to Sanju later and leaves from there. When Shobha goes, Bhabhi thinks that in one hour Shobha gave so many lessons to Garima. She says she will talk to Sanju and tell him his wife is complaining about him to others.
Vikram and Sarika come home and Sarika takes him to Rehan. Rehan is playing with car and she asks him about it. He says she assembled it for him. Vikram thinks all clues were pointing towards Sarika. Sarika tells him she cant think about hurting Shobha. He has doubt or any evidence, then he can talk to her. They can go to police and investigate. She says she knows he wont trust her. Vikram just leaves from there.
Jiya and Rehan are playing and they call Shobha to play. Sarika comes there and looks at them. Sarika thinks that she was going to do biggest mistake by giving kadha to Shobha. That kadha had poison and it would have been used against her. She thinks that anyways she is one of the people being doubted, she she should be careful. She says Shobha has now some more time to play with her kids. She is playing snakes and ladders with her. Soon the snake will bite Shobha and then it will be game over.
Vikram is thinking who would want to kill Shobha. He thinks it may be Samarth. But then he says that Samarth wouldn't let a woman rule his mind. And like Samarth said, he is the prime suspect in this case. Then Vikram thinks it could be Tarun. Then he thinks that why would Tarun do this with Samarth, Samarth is not in power and he has nothing. So even Tarun is out. He says that whoever it is, he will stand like a shield in front of Shobha and not let her happen anything.
Its next day and its Shobha's birthday. Jiya and Rehaan greet her with flowers. Sharda and Nani come and wish her. Shobha lets kids eat chocolates. Nani tells Shobha she has a gift for her. Shobha tells her she doesn't want any gift from Nani. Nani tells her she has an advise, that she should start her life afresh. Shobha tells her she already has. Nani says she cant spend her life like that. Its New Year, so it should be new start to her life. Sharda joins in and agrees with Nani. Nani says Shobha should remarry and start a new beginning. Otherwise she will spend her life in doing work and completing her kids homework.
Nani goes home and sees Vikram talking to his client. She forcefully hangs up his phone and they argue about it. Then she shows gold bangles she made for Shobha as shagun. Vikram said he hasn't even talked to her and here Nani is ready with shagun. Nani tells him if he stays the way he is, then he wil lose his chance. She has talked to Sharda and Sharda said she is happy in Shobha's happiness. Its Shobha's birthday so they should go with bangles and start the talk. Vikram says Nani is like a Don who makes everyone agree to her wishes.
Jiya and Rehan give confetti to their servant to put it on the fan. Sarika asks them to go and pack Shobha's gift. Sarika thinks if the ceiling fan falls on someone on their birthday then it will be a big tragedy. She asks the guy to loosen the ceiling fan. He asks her why and she shouts at him to and tells him to his work. She tells him not to ask any questions and she will give him loads of money. Sarika was dreaming all this. The guy comes and asks what is to be done. She just confetti is to be put on the fan, what else is there to do. The guy says he wont even do anything else, he has appointment at another place.
Sarika comes in the building with Sharda. Sharda asks her to go ahead. Then she calls Nani and asks her if they are ready. Nani says they ready with the shagun and dulha. Double party, double maza. Sharda gets happy. Shobha enters her house to find it all dark. She puts on the lights and finds it decorated. Jiya and Rehan come screeching and wish her. Garima comes with cake, Shobha is surprised to see her. Sarika and Sharda join them. Then she cuts the cake and feeds to everyone. She says it was the loveliest birthday she had in some time. She gets tears in her eyes. Sharda consoles her and tells her whatever she lost will be back to her.
Sharda is preparing dishes with cake and other snacks when Sarika asks her what Nani was talking about. Sharda tells her she was just talking about Vikram's marriage. She says she also hopes Shobha will get a life partner soon. Just like Nani, she is searching rishtas for both Shobha and Sarika, since both of them are her daughters. Sarika says her mom is supporting Shobha but not thinking about Sarika's life. When she comes to know that Vikram is not just Shobha's friend but wants to marry her, she wants to see if Sharda will react like a mother or Mother-In-Law.
Jiya starts the fan and confetti starts falling. The door bell rings and Sharda says Nani must have come. Garima opens the door and is shocked to see someone standing at the door. Its Samarth. He enters and Sharda and then Shobha are shocked to see him.
Precap: Jiya tells Nani and Vikram that her father has come to her Mom's birthday party. Both of them are shocked.
