Isha asserts her right to choose her life partner, citing the Supreme Court’s ruling. She warns that anyone who tries to force her will be locked up in jail. However, Amba interrupts her and locks her inside a room to silence her.

Natasha reflects on how Dhawal risked his life to save her. She helps Dhawal to his feet and hears some noise nearby. Thinking that someone might be able to help them, Natasha suggests they go towards the sound. Suddenly, Dhawal falls into a pit.
