Plot summary
editUpon learning from Samarth that he is staying alone from a young age, Mithun enquires the matter. He is surprised to learn that he has a family. Girija was happy as she learns that Samarth is her long lost son, Babu. Girija becomes emotional after Babu's arrival for a short stay and spends some quality time with him. Mithun, who searches for her, enquires Raashi and upon hearing Girija's voice, he goes towards her room. Upon witnessing Girija and Samarth having an emotional conversation, Mithun grows suspicious and confronts them about the reason for their concern. To prevent Mithun from learning about Samarth's identity, Girija diverts him with a story. Anuradha is left shocked when Suraksha reveals her true intention behind marrying Samarth.
As she learns about Suraksha's plans for Girija, Suraksha threatens that Raashi's marriage will be in jeopardy as she knew Samarth's true identity. When Mithun reveals that he hates Samarth, Girija faints. Kavitha pushes Girija off the stairs. While the doctor suggests physiotherapy for Girija's recovery, Kavitha suggests Samarth and proposes that he and Suraksha stay at their place till Girija recovers. Mithun completes the first part of the ritual by carrying Raashi in his arms while climbing the stairs. To prove that Raashi is a good wife and an ideal daughter-in-law, the priest asks her to identify the empty and the water-filled pots without touching the containers. Mithun asks Raashi to spill the secret that she's been wanting to tell him. Raashi reveals that Samarth actually is his brother Babu. Mithun decides to confront Girija and Samarth about the truth. Mithun accuses Samarth of playing with his feelings. Kavitha tells Suraksha that she plans to get Raashi kidnapped. The goons kidnap Rashi and leave the place. Bhavana and Samarth inform Mithun that Selva has kidnapped Raashi. Soon, Selva calls Mithun and threatens to punish Raashi if he defies his orders.
While Selva's goons are sleeping, Raashi gets her phone and sends Mithun her location. Mithun follows it and saves Raashi. Upon learning that Suraksha is the new MD of the company, Mithun grows furious and leaves the place and vents to Raashi. He gets upset with Samarth for letting Suraksha tag along with them and tells him not to disobey his orders again. To recover the company's losses, Suraksha reduces the salary of their cab drivers, who soon protest. Raashi arrives at his office and requests the cab drivers to stop protesting. Mithun dismisses suraksha from the post of M.D. However, Samarth argues with Mithun that when Suraksha was appointed as M.D, Samarth was given veto power. Prabhakar confronts Girija and blames her for bringing difference between Samarth and Mithun by relinquishing the Veto Power to Samarth.
