It is produced by Ekta Kapoor under the banner Balaji Telefilms. The show casts Pranali Rathod as Prarthana and Akshay Bindra as Raunak, the fourth-generation lead.

Today’s episode begins with Raunak (Akshay Bindra) coming to the jail to meet Smita. He expresses his disappointment, and he holds himself responsible for her condition. He tells her that he is the reason Smita is in jail. But Smita makes him understand that she is arrested not because of him, and Raunak takes Shivansh’s name.

On the other hand, Bua Maa makes a smart plan, and in Shivansh’s absence, she blackmails Prarthana (Pranali Rathod). Bua Maa pretends to be caring for her and makes her understand that Shivansh doesn’t love her, nor does she exist for him, so she should not spoil her life. Bua Maa extends her support and tells her that she will always support her, but Prarthana doesn’t need to waste her life for Shivansh.

Prarthana feels devastated and leaves Shivansh’s house. Tanya gets angry at Bua Maa for lying to Prarthana, but Bua Maa tells her that this is the only way to throw Prarthana out of Shivansh’s life. But Tanya confronts her, highlighting that Shivansh will become angry if he finds out. On the other hand, Prarthana walks on the road cluelessly, where Preeta becomes her support system. She asks her why she is on the road and tries to make her feel better.
