Savi joyfully runs to her Pari Mamma and lifts her up, showering her with affection, followed by the Thakkars. Ashika confronts Arsh, accusing him of trying to manipulate a girl. Arsh retorts that Ashika is being overconfident. Rajat intervenes, asking them to stop arguing in court and to bring Sai to his house. Bhagyashree asserts that she will go to retrieve Sai herself, expressing her distrust of them and fear that they may manipulate a young child. Rajat gives them one hour to bring Sai before he completes his paperwork.
Mrunmayee notices Isha’s anxiety and attempts to reassure her. Isha expresses her uncertainty about whether they will get Sai’s custody, emphasizing that Savi married Rajat for Sai’s sake. Without Sai’s custody, she feels the wedding would be meaningless. Mrunmayee mentions she had called Shantanu, but he disconnected the call. Savi calls Isha, excitedly informing her that they have secured custody of Sai and asks her to prepare something special for their granddaughter’s welcome. Isha promises to make ukdecha modak.
Ashika confronts Savi, accusing her of tricking and stealing Sai from her mother, cursing her that she won’t find happiness in her marriage. Bhagyashree overhears and reprimands Ashika for abandoning a six-month-old Savi to chase her boyfriend and now questioning Savi’s motherhood. She warns Ashika not to disrespect Savi, who is not only part of the Thakkar family but also Sai’s mother. Ashika walks away, and Bhagyashree encourages Savi to stand her ground and make preparations for Sai’s welcome while she goes to bring her home.
Tara, Riddhi, and Lucky decorate the house for Sai’s arrival. Savi asks Tara which sweet Sai likes best, and upon hearing it’s modak, she mentions that her mother is making some. Tara suggests she can make kansar/sheera sweet as well, and Savi begins preparing it. Rajendra comes down, pleased to see his children decorating. He heads to the kitchen, where he finds Savi making sheera.
He offers her a shagun gift, and Savi hesitates when she sees a diamond necklace. Rajendra insists it’s for her first dish, and she gratefully accepts it, referring to him as “papa,” which brings a smile to him. Tara and Riddhi joke that they have a third sister now, sharing their love with Savi. Savi states that parents love their children equally and asks Lucky if he’s ready for the surprise, to which he confirms.
Rajat and Aman arrive home, delighted by the decorations. Bhagyashree returns with Sai, Ashika, and Arsh, taunting them and igniting their jealousy. She rings the doorbell, and Arsh complains about the delay in opening the door. Bhagyashree responds that she has a double flat and that it takes time, eventually opening the door herself. The lights turn on, revealing Savi and the entire family dancing to “Bam Bam Bhole” in celebration of Sai’s arrival, intensifying Ashika and Arsh’s jealousy. Bhagyashree takes Sai’s belongings from them, urging them to leave before they cast an evil eye on her family’s joy.
Arsh mocks Rajat, claiming he married Savi solely for Sai’s custody and implying that Savi doesn’t respect him. Rajat fires back, reminding Arsh that he married Savi publicly while Arsh hasn’t even acknowledged Ashika as his girlfriend. Sai overhears this exchange, and Ashika pulls Arsh away. Savi presents gifts to Sai, who excitedly discovers chocolates and shares them with her aunts and father.
When Sai asks Rajat to share his chocolate with Savi, he hesitantly agrees, urged by the family. Rajendra captures the moment in a photograph but accidentally drops his phone. Bhagyashree, seeing this as a bad omen, worries that something unfortunate may happen, realizing she forgot to prepare chappan bhog for the gods on Janmashtami. Rajendra reassures her, suggesting they offer eleven sweets instead, but Bhagyashree laments that she has never forgotten this ritual in twelve years and feels that something bad is impending.
