Manik tries to talk Abhimanyu  out of his decision to get married by telling him that the girl he is getting married to is not the best girl for him; but fails miserably.

Back at Sukh Nivas, the preparations for the engagement are on in full swing when Ram  comes to know that the guests coming over are much more than he had expected and made arrangements for. Just then, help comes from Badi Ma where she arranges for the catering of all the guests. Ram  cannot deny her help even if he wants to since this is her gift to Mukti.
Meanwhile, Mukti's past continues to haunt her as she gets totally shaken up on seeing a MIG aircraft. Nandini prays for her happiness and for her to get over her past and move ahead.
In the evening, the function begins as the guests start coming in. Manik continues to assume that Abhimanyu  is getting engaged to Nandini. He speaks to his dad about his dilemma, wherein you hate a person to such an extent that you don't want to see that persons' face but one fine day when that person is about to move out of your life forever, you don't want to let the person go. Your mind tells you to move on but your heart wants to stop the person. Rajvardhan tells him that he should ignore his heart and always follow his mind because emotions will not take him anywhere. Manik as usual follows what his dad says

At the engagement party, a woman who is better known as the gossip queen of Shimla, chases Manik, while Manik tries his level best to escape from her sight. While doing so, he lands up in Nandini's room and shuts the door. Nandini realizes the reason he is running and decides to continue harassing him. She unlocks the door while Manik hides behind the curtains.
Nandini continues to hint the woman about Manik's whereabouts when Manik gets irritated and pulls her towards him inside the curtain. He tells Nandini that the only way to get rid of that woman is if she spots him with Nandini. Nandini tries to get away but doesn't succeed.

Finally, the woman spots them behind the curtain, and as per Manik's plan, she assumes there is something between Nandini and Manik and leaves them alone. Nandini gets very angry with Manik and in the process; she reveals that it is her sister's engagement. Manik is extremely happy and relieved to know that Abhimanyu  is getting married to Mukti and not Nandini

Manik can't stop smiling after knowing that Abhimanyu  is getting married to Mukti and not Nandini. But more than him, people around him are surprised to see him smile. It is something most of them have seen for the first time!
Mukti and Abhimanyu  finally get engaged. Manik gets slightly upset when he sees the family bonding between other families and somewhere deep inside, he begins to miss his mom and wishes he had a complete family as well. Rajvardhan senses this and apologizes for not giving him a chance to experience this feeling. Manik however tells him that he doesn't need anyone if he has his dad around.

That night, Ram  thanks Mrs Malhotra i.e. Nandini's Badi Ma for everything she has done for his daughters. He tells her about Manik and how similar he is to her i.e. his mom. He is different from everyone, with sadness evident in his eyes.

Next day, Nandini gives Manik her resignation letter since she has had enough of him. Manik does his level best to stop her from resigning and praises her work in every possible way. Just then, he gets up from his sleep and realizes that he has been dreaming of Nandini. It probably is the first time he has ever dreamt of any girl.

He remembers Nandini's bua's word that if he dreams about a girl, he should know that she is the one he wants to marry. Manik cannot help but feel surprised and happy at this thought
