The episode starts with Mangal’s haldi ceremony beginning. Lipika asks Kapil to come inside with her, but he refuses and sends her in with the haldi and shagun bangles. He then thinks it’s a good opportunity to meet Mangal. Kapil enters the house and secretly watches as everyone applies haldi to Mangal. Akshat notices Kapil’s reflection in the mirror and calls out his name. Everyone turns to look at him. Shanti asks Kapil to come inside, saying Mangal will feel happy to see him. She brings him in. Kapil notices Mangal lost in thoughts, while Shanti assumes Mangal is upset because Kusum hasn’t applied haldi to her.
Kapil asks Mangal if she is fine. Shanti says it’s common for a bride to feel anxious before marriage. She then asks Kusum to apply haldi to Mangal, saying the groom himself brought the shagun haldi. Kusum shows her bandaged hand and says she is injured, asking Shanti to apply it instead as she is Mangal’s mother. Shanti agrees and applies shagun haldi to Mangal. Later, she asks Kapil to make Mangal wear the shagun bangles. Kapil hesitates, but Shanti insists. He finally makes Mangal wear the bangles. Lipika captures their photos, while Kusum, unaware, walks away. Mangal notices it.
Later, Shanti tells Mangal that she has packed all her luggage and asks her to check it once. Mangal agrees. Kusum comes in and gives Mangal the sarees she had kept for her. Lipika asks Mangal to pack Akshat’s uniform too, as he will go to school from there. Hearing this, Adit enters and questions why they are packing the children’s belongings. Mangal says the kids will stay with her. Adit argues that Mangal is leaving and shouldn’t take the kids along, adding that Akshat has exams and a new environment won’t suit him. He suggests that Mangal should first settle in at Kapil’s house and then take the kids later. Mangal insists she can manage, but Shanti agrees with Adit. Mangal refuses to leave the children behind. Kusum says the kids have been living here all along and can stay a few more days, asking if Mangal doesn’t trust them to take care of the kids. Shanti persuades Mangal to agree.
Just then, Chinta Bua calls Mangal and reminds her that her wedding is tonight. She asks Mangal not to get distracted thinking about her children. Chinta Bua says she has booked a parlour appointment and insists Mangal get ready there. Mangal says she’ll get ready at home, but Chinta Bua insists, saying it’s her grandson’s wedding and many influential guests are attending, so she doesn’t want Mangal to look aged. Shanti takes the phone and assures Chinta Bua that she’ll take Mangal to the parlour on time. After ending the call, Chinta Bua smirks and thinks her plan to stop Kapil and Mangal’s wedding will finally work today.
Later, Mangal looks around the house and recalls her precious moments spent with everyone.
Before leaving, Mangal tells Ishana that she is going to the parlour and will come directly to the mandap, asking Ishana and Akshat to come from home. Ishana excitedly says she can’t wait to see Mangal as a bride. As Mangal leaves, Adit accidentally drops his phone. Their eyes meet, and they exchange polite smiles to ease the awkwardness. Mangal then leaves with her packed luggage, sits in the car, and asks the driver to take her to the parlour.
Meanwhile, Chinta Bua calls the makeup artist and instructs her to make Mangal look young with her makeup skills. The artist agrees. Bijli overhears and asks Chinta Bua why she’s spending so much on Mangal’s makeup when she doesn’t want the wedding to happen. Chinta Bua smirks and says, “Getting ready doesn’t mean the wedding will happen.”
Episode ends.
