Vasudha is thinking that her dad did not even give her enough time to mourn his death. After the ceremony, Sushant leaves; Vasu stares after him for a while. Then she is about to go to her room when Vedika stops her. She says she has no right to remain in the house as she is their father's killer. And if she didn't kill him, who did? Why doesn't she tell them? Vasu is silent. Naina watches all this and feels she is hiding something. Vasu denies killing him but Vedika asks the other family members to speak up, whether they thought she had killed him or not. They walk away silently.
Vedika gets enraged, she drags Vasu and throws her out of the house, shutting the door. Vasu keeps knocking and begging her not to let her out. (Why does she have to be such a wimp??đĄ)
Then our Mother India walks to the temple in the wind and rain, her feet bleeding.đ She rings the bell and prays that God look after her family. Weak and worn out, she faintsâŚ..and falls straight into Sushant's arms. đłShe tells him that she has no more strength to go on.
Bua and Nani are discussing how they would also have left the house of they had any other means of support. Vedika comes and asks them to get something to eat for Shalini. Sitting down next to her, she makes a show of concern and says that she and Shreya will accept her as their father's legal wife, but on one condition. She must sign some papers saying that only Vedika and Shreya are her children. She hands her the papers. Naina is watching all this.
Vasu is at Sushant's house. He is sitting at her bedside massaging her swollen feet. She says that the pain of her feet is nothing compared to the pain inflicted by Shreya and Vedika. Now she has lost her home too. Sushant says she still has something to call her own: him and his home. If she wants, she can make it her permanent postal address.đł Just then the doorbell rings and he quips, here comes the postman already. It is Vikram. He says that it is Vasudha's own fault as she is not breaking her silence. She is shielding someone. Sushant is shocked and asks her whom she is doing this for, but she refuses to say. Vikram says they have found fresh evidence that indicates someone else did the murder. He will come back soon and expose the real killer.
Naina calls Vasu without telling her name, and reveals what Vedika is up to. Ved goes to her father's study and jeers at his photo, saying that DRS the successful businessman was a failure in his personal life. But now she is undoing his wrong; on the day of his chautha she threw his illegal daughter out. Vasu enters and says she has no legal authority to throw anyone out; in fact Vasu, having the power of attorney, can throw Ved out if she wishes, but relationships are not maintained like this. She shows her another document according to which, if she is not able to restore their relations by Diwali, the Rai SInghania property will all go to Vedika. Ved insists that she will win this battle. They stare at each other.
