The scene unfolds with Armaan’s arrival, Vidya mentioning Rohit’s desire to speak, and her subsequent apology. Armaan embraces her while Dadi urges Rohit to express himself. However, Rohit forgets and heads upstairs. In the room, Armaan encounters Abhira, sparking a disagreement. Abhira accuses him of a cigarette smell, which Armaan denies, claiming no one smokes at home. Amid their banter, he accidentally slips, leading to a fleeting moment between them. Later, Abhira requests him to remove red socks, and as he starts stitching them, morning arrives.
Dadi praises Armaan for securing a significant case for their firm, urging him to win it. However, Armaan declines a toffee offered by Dadi, citing his inability to accept it. Spotting cigarette odor on Rohit, Armaan assumes Rohit is smoking, leading him to believe Rohit can handle the case. Dadi insists on Armaan guiding and supporting Rohit, to which he agrees. However, Rohit expresses his reluctance towards the case, despite Armaan’s assurance to handle everything.
Tensions rise when Rohit explodes, accusing Armaan of spoiling matters and questioning his trust. Armaan, seeking clarity, confronts Rohit, who refuses to divulge the reason behind his distress. A physical altercation ensues, resulting in Armaan being inadvertently slapped, shocking everyone present.
Distraught, Rohit flees upstairs, leaving Armaan in tears. Both men reminisce about their past moments and cry. Abhira comforts Armaan, while Ruhi offers water to Rohit, who expresses regret for his actions. Armaan, upset and feeling helpless, shares his frustration, acknowledging Rohit’s inner turmoil and recent smoking habit, leaving him unable to assist.
Rohit reappears downstairs as Vidya and Madhav attempt to console him, but he remains resolute on leaving. In a moment of stumble, a box falls, revealing cigarettes. Dadi confronts Rohit, expressing disappointment in his hidden habits, while Armaan steps in to claim ownership of the cigarettes, surprising Abhira. Dadi reprimands them, and amidst the chaos, Sanjay advises Dadi to remain calm. However, Dadi vents her frustration, lamenting the transformation of her once sacred home into a stage for family drama, scolding her children and daughters-in-law.
