Amar is unable to sleep as he tries countless times calling Shakti but she is ignoring his calls. He weeps in silence on his bed thinking that Shakti will never forgive him...because she is all about trust...if you break her trust its hard to regain back. He decides to approach her the next day. While Shakti cries for hours silently in her room...she gains some strength and she calms herself down thinking about the shoot the next day. [The Next Day at D3 Set] Amar sits in the makeup room waiting for Shakti to arrive...she walks in with a straight face and ignoring him. She heads towards the bathroom...he jumps in front of the door..."Shakti please meri baat sunlo...kal jo hua main explain karna chaata hoon" She pushes by him and into the bathroom with tears streaming down her cheeks she closes the door and she weeps with her back against the door. Amar presses his cheek against the door as he listens in..he speaks "Shakti you know me better than anyone...you know I would never hurt you" He is about speak further but Sneha walks in confused looking at Amar against the door...He moves away from the door and he says hi and walks out of the room. Sneha senses the tension and wonders whether ArSha (which she
also calls them) had a fight...but why so soon? Sneha waits in silence waiting for Shakti to come. Shakti eventually makes her way out pretending to be normal...Sneha closes the door so they could talk in private. Sneha grabs Shakti's arm and seats her down on the chair and pulls one up to seat herself. Shakti breaks down as Sneha asks whether ArSha had a fight...she pours out her heart to Sneha and tells her everything...Sneha comforts her and convinces Shakti to talk to
Amar and not to ignore him. As Shakti hugs Sneha...Sneha thinks to herself of Champa...
[Sneha's thoughts]How can Charlie do this? I trust Amar and I know he would never do this to Shakti...after all their history together and Amar is always there for Shakti...he would never
drop this low. Charlie... watch out!! I'm going to get to the bottom of this!! [The shoot for the day starts] the scene is Rey has to kiss Kriya on the cheek as the crew is playing truth or dare...Shakti is feeling upset but holding herself together as a true professional...Amar's touch in the scene was still electrifying for Shakti as he kissed her more passionately than needed. They continue
shooting comedy scenes...even though both were in no mood. The team breaks for lunch and Sneha comes over to talk to Amar. She tells him that she knows what happened...Amar asked her confused that his and Shakti's relationship was a secret (not even Mukti-Shakti's bff/sis
did not know). Sneha nods in agreement but tells him that she knew everything after the Delhi trip because of lipstick stain. Amar feels awkward...Sneha continues "Amar I know what happened last night" Amar looks down and says in anger "Sneha if you are here to accuse me then I don't want to hear about it!" Sneha pats him on the shoulder and says "Amar I trust you...maine dekha hai ke tum hamesh Shakti ka saath chaate ho..whether it be friendship or as a girlfriend...I would never believe this rubbish" Amar looks at her relieved and questions her why Shakti does not see this..Sneha explains to him that Shakti is believing it because she saw it with her own eyes. She continues by saying that Champa is going down. Their convo ends as they are called back to the set. The team finishes the shoot and start heading home.
Shakti tries to run out as the first to leave...but Palki tells her that she needs to discuss future scenes with her. As Shakti goes to change..Sneha convinces Palki to keep Amar behind as well as Sneha tells her that they are not talking and had a fight...Palki and Sneha have a plan in place. Everyone leaves the sets and only people remaining are Shakti, Amar and Palki. Shakti gets irritated as she sees Amar waiting back to talk to Palki...he tries to speak but she gives him the cold shoulder and turns away from him. Palki tells them that they have to do an act together for the D3 Diwali special on Roop Tera Mastana. Amar is delighted as he gets to spend time with Shakti and have an opportunity to talk things out. Palki appoints Amar to do the choreography which is supposedly done in different shots and does not require much dance but rather hot and romantic scenes. Palki tells them to stay back and do the choreography/rehearsal together today as the channel is running out of days and have to telecast the episode 3 days later. Shakti is flustered and irritated as she cannot stand being in the same room as Amar thinking constantly about him kissing Champa. Palki makes an excuse of an urgent call that requires her to leave for the day...giving them the keys to lock up. Amar is happy to see Palki leave...he holds Shakti's hand and she yanks it back...he stares her deep in the eyes..."Shakti why won't you believe me? What you saw was Charlie kissing me not me kissing her" Shakti stays quiet as Amar has made a good point but she is too angry to listen. "Kunwar let's get over with choreography...this is what we are still here for" Amar feels hurt as Shakti is not trusting him...he explains the choreography and they start rehearsing.
In the dance there is a scene where Amar is holding Shakti's waist from behind and she holds his face and he leans in pretends to kiss her neck...both share a moment
as they look into one's eyes and Shakti guides Amar's face closer for a kiss. Amar tightens his grip on her waist and pulls her against him with both hands. Shakti leans forward to kiss him but pulls back immediately as she forgot about everything for a second. She gets teary eyed and hides her face. Amar grabs her and pulls her against him again and he leans down and gently kisses Shakti's shoulder. Shakti stays quiet as she gets goose bumps down her spine from the kiss and closes her eyes. He moves in and kisses her neck this time...then her jaw line...then her cheek and Shakti reaches back again and guides Amar's head so their lips could meet. Their kiss ends as Shakti pushes Amar back and says "I can't do this..." She leaves the sets crying. Amar sits down holding his head in his lap not sure how to prove his innocence. Then he snaps his fingers and calls up Sneha. She has as a plan in place to get back at Champa and prove Amar's innocence. Amar is very happy as Sneha's plan is very good. [Sneha's house] Sneha calls up Champa. Champa is wondering why Sneha is calling her.. "Hey Sneha, what's up?" Sneha speaks "Tumhare aur Amar ke beech mein sab teek hai?" Champa does not answer but rather questions, "Kyon? Kya hua?" Sneha tells Champa that Amar is seen disturbed these days and also he and Shakti are not talking. Champa is delighted by the news and says "Shakti deserves it'woh hamare beech mein aagyi thi" Sneha speaks "Yeah, Shakti always thinks she is better than everyone, she is a ****" Champa starts laughing and happy that Sneha hates Shakti as well. Sneha is happy that Champa is getting convinced and getting trapped in her plans. Sneha convinces her to meet up for dinner the next day.
[The next day on the sets] Amar and Shakti along with the rest of the cast film their diwali scenes in their traditional outfits. Viha and Swayam dance was already shot and only Roop Tera Mastana was left. Everyone packs up to leave as Amar and Shakti get dressed for the sequence. Shakti wears a hot gold sari showing off her figure'she steps into the light as Amar is standing in the shot waiting for her. Amar's jaw drops as Shakti was looking so sexy and hot in the sari'he couldn't resist drooling and staring at her wide eyed. She notices his stare she turns away from his eyes and tells herself that he would never have her. They complete the dance in silence and do it in one take as Shakti was keen on getting it done and leaving as soon as possible. The scene is completed and the shoot ends for the day. Shakti heads to the change room and places her hand on the doorknob but Amar pulls her by the wrist and turns her around and against the door and places his hands roughly on the door trapping her. He stares deeply in her eyes and he moves in closer and whispers in her ear. "Shakti all the confusion will end tomorrow, I will prove my innocence to you" Shakti does not know what to say as she is confused, but she snaps out of it and convinces herself that her eyes would never lie and what she saw stands. They share a moment as she can feel his breath against her neck which was asking for more and she was slowly melting in the passion again. Amar stares into her eyes and moves closer, Shakti closes her eyes for the kiss but she surprised as he turns the doorknob and walks past her into the change room smiling. Shakti shakes her head as she is upset at herself that her deep feelings are pouring out. They head home as Shakti is wondering what Amar is going to do tomorrow'she tells herself that she will be strong and not let him win and trap her again. Amar is excited that tomorrow the day will come that Champa will be put in her place and Shakti will know the truth and tomorrow is Dharmesh's birthday and Halloween party. He is so happy that Sneha is helping him'without her he would never know what to do.
[The next day] The shooting continues and Amar finds out that Sneha is back at the hospital again because of malaria. He is worried for her, feeling selfish for also thinking about their plan. He plans to meet her with the rest of the cast during the lunch break between the shoot. [At the hospital] Sneha is sick and feels bad for not being able to conduct the plan. Amar tells her to forget the plan and focus on getting better. Everyone leaves and heads back to the shoot. At the end of the shoot, Amar and Shakti get dressed at the set for the party as they are already running late. He decides to leave before she does to avoid awkwardness and he is trying to think of way to prove his innocence as he had told her he would tonight. He is confused as he arrives and is greeted by old friends from DID at the party'he loses focus. Shakti walks in wearing a beautiful blue dress'he is amazed at what a natural beauty she is without any makeup and hair tied back in a low ponytail. She ignores his stares and starts mingling with everyone. Amar receives a text from Sneha'he is curious to why Sneha is messaging. He reads the message and it says that "Your work is done!" He is so happy but annoyed with Sneha because she left the hospital for the plan. He calls her up heading outside on the terrace to avoid the noise from within. Unaware that Shakti is also on the terrace in the corner, she eavesdrops drops on Amar's conversation as she can hear a woman on the other line. She gets irritated and convinced that Amar is fooling around again and is with Champa. Amar speaks on the phone to Sneha "You are so bad'.you should be taking care of yourself" Amar stops talking as he is listening to other woman on the other side of the call which was making Shakti burn up. Amar continues "You are the best'I Iove you'. (Shakti has heard enough and leaves without hearing Amar's last words which were: Sneh you are such a good friend" Shakti enters the house again and gulps down a couple of shots in anger. Shakti starts dancing and grabs Punit and dances close with him as Amar watches from the corner. Amar smirks as he knows that she is only doing this to make him jealous..which will end soon as he was waiting for Sneha to send the video clip to Shakti. He can't wait to prove his innocence and he is very angry and done with chasing after someone who does not trust him or wants anything to do with him. He notices Shakti's phone is left on the table beside empty shot glasses'he sees the screen light up as Sneha had send the clip to her phone. He hands Dharmesh the phone and tells him to go give it to Shakti'he looks at Amar confused and Amar mouths 'Please' he does so and Shakti notices Sneha has messaged. She heads outside to attend to her phone and watches a video of Champa who Sneha had secretly videotaped. In the video Champa is telling Sneha how she got back at Amar by creating all the misunderstandings between Shakti and Amar. Shakti is shocked as she can't believe her eyes'she watches the clip again with tears streaming down her cheeks. She sits down on the ground and hugs her legs thinking of all the stuff she said to Amar and how she did not trust him. She wipes her tears and toughens up and is ready to face Amar. Shakti approaches the door but is surprised to see Amar who walks past her and stands by the railing of the terrace and looks at the moonlit sky, not sure whether Shakti believes the video or not. She walks over to him as her eyes are dripping with tears again. Amar is surprised as Shakti hugs him tightly from behind as she places her face against his back and sobs. He does not know whether to be happy or still angry'he is happy that she knows the truth but is upset at the fact that she did not trust him. He roughly pulls her hands off of him and turns to face her and speaks "Now you believe me'wow.." Shakti cuts in and speaks through tears.. "Kunwar please mujhe maaf kardo'I am bad a person for not trusting you" She reaches for his face and he grabs her wrist and looks her deep in the eyes and says "You are a bad person and I hate you!" He yanks her hand aside and walks out of the room. Amar is relieved that he has proven his innocence but he is angry at Shakti as she has ruined their relationship by not trusting him. He decides he does not want her anymore and is done chasing after her because he wants to be with someone that trusts him, which is the main component of any relationship. [On the terrace] Shakti is shocked at Amar's words as he said he hates her'she starts crying harder as she has ruined their relationship and feels there is no coming back to what they had.
