On the other hand, Raahi and Khyaati talk to each other. Khyaati shares her feelings, and Raahi understands them. She highlights that whatever she is experiencing is because of minopuase. Prem and Raja also overhear. Anupama screams at Digvijay to bring him to his senses as they gear up to leave the house.

Prem and Raja also participate and try to understand minopuase, but Vasundhara confronts them. She screams at Khyaati for making an issue of this. As Vasundhara and Meeta taunt Khyaati, Prem asks Vasundhara not to scream at Khyaati and apologizes to Khyaati. Raja also joins him.

Later, Anupama, with a heavy heart, packs her bags to leave Saavi villa while Digvijay looks dull. Anupama goes to him, sharing how she lost her son Samar. Anupama tells him her story of how she learned to live with her son’s memories, and it gives Digvijay strength. She asks him to pack his bags well so that no memories are left behind.
