Shiv goes to his room, where Shakti brings a towel for him. He expresses his feelings, saying, “I missed you,” and she hugs him back, replying, “I missed you a lot.”She then asks about Kartik, wondering if he is eating on time. Shiv reassures her that Kartik is fine and states, “We have three days to bring Mandira’s truth out. We will expose her, and Maa will get justice.”
Just then, Mandira arrives, prompting Shiv to head to the washroom, while Shakti leaves the room. Mandira takes the opportunity to retrieve a recorder she had hidden near Shiv’s feet.Shiv starts the pooja, declaring that evil spirits will leave the house today. He asks for the ashes pot, and Mandira instructs Keertan to bring the fake one to test him. Keertan brings the fake ashes pot, and Mandira claims it belongs to Gayatri. As Shiv takes the pot, he recalls his moments with her.
Just as he is about to open the pot, he hears a voice saying it’s not her. Angrily, he throws the pot away and shouts at Keertan for attempting to test him, declaring, “How dare you give me the fake pot? I will curse you for life.” Mandira looks frightened and says they are truly sorry, assuring him that the real pot will be brought. Shiv ominously states, “Your death is here now.”
Mandira turns to see Gayatri’s ghost approaching, panicking and pleading, “Please save me.” Shiv accuses her, saying, “You are the killer.” She vehemently denies it, insisting, “No, no… I didn’t do anything.” He presses her, declaring, “You are lying. You killed her. Tell the truth if you want me to save you.”
In a moment of desperation, Mandira screams that there was indeed a murder in this house: “Gayatri was killed here.” She then accuses Shiv, shouting, “Gayatri was killed in this house, but her son did it. He killed his first wife too. And that son is here with us!” Everyone is shocked as Mandira tears off Shiv’s fake beard.
As the lights turn on, Mandira calls the police. Shakti and the others become worried. The inspector announces, “We have to arrest Shiv for killing his mother and Shakti for helping him hide.” Mandira reveals that she suspected him when he touched Manorama’s feet, taunting him, “You forgot who you were going against. Did you really think you could fool me? I was the one taking your test.”
She reveals the microphone hidden in Shiv’s slippers, claiming she heard his conversation with Shakti. Mandira tells Shakti that her time is up, stating, “You both thought the Lord would come and bring justice here, but the only justice served is by Mandira. Nobody can go against me.” She instructs the inspector to arrest them for killing Gayatri.
As Shiv and Shakti are taken away, Mandira stops them and throws Gayatri’s ashes, calling them trash. Shiv runs to grab it, but the pot falls and breaks, causing Gayatri’s ashes to scatter across the floor. Shiv cries out as he sees the ashes and glares at Mandira.
