Anu tells Malini that whatever Adi did is not right, who leaves newly married bride alone. Malini says whole family is with her and they all take care of her, there is some or other celebration daily here, tomorrow there will be makar sankranti celebration and she will enjoy a lot.

Malini walks to them and apologizes for her mom’s misbehavior. Aparna says she can say sorry for not serving them kheer. Rupal asks her to prepare kheer and serve it to them. Aparna says a mother can understand mother’s heart, and since they are all mothers here, Malini doesn’t have to apologize to them for her mother. Malini prepares kheer and serves it to them. Badimaa says its color came so well and its very tasty.

Back in Pagdandiya, Adi takes food for Imlie saying she is on medication and doctor had ask her to have food on time. He speaks emotionally saying he has to lie to his family, Malini, and her family whenever he visits Pagdandiya and feels very guilty regarding it. He continues and says he doesn’t want to stay at her house and return to his lodge. Satyakam enters and says they respect and consider damad/SIL as god and home as temple, so a god can not leave temple; he has to stay back home and finish rituals. Adi says he came here on duty to interview a meeting between Satyakam and government. Satyakam says an axe never befriends a tree, he will speak to government after sankranti, till then Adi should stay back and enjoy the rituals. He gets a call and walks aside. Adi tells Imlie that he will not stay there and will leave for lodge whatever happens and he is not worried for his life. Imlie plead with him to stop and says Satyakam and his team may reach Malini to take revenge on him, so he shouldn’t risk her life. He stops.

Friends ask if her house is very big with a big room. Imlie reminisces Adi warning her to remember her place in his house and life, etc. She lies that she has a big house with in-laws and many relatives and her room is very big. Friends continue questioning her. Imlie continues sadly reminiscing Adi’s bitter words and think her marriage is just a dream.
